| - Stopped in for lunch today and scoped out all the offerings. There are many options to choose from, several of which are made as you wait. I chose to order a tofu and veggie noodle dish from the booth aptly named, "Noodles". The cook tossed some veggies and tofu in a hot pan and began sauteeing them. He asked if I wanted them spicy and I said "Yes". He put some noodles on a plate and poured the contents of the pan over them. When he handed me the plate, it looked tasty and hot. I grabbed a bottle of water and paid $11.25, which I found to be pricey.
When I tried a bite of the noodles, I couldn't get my fork through them. For a moment, I was bewildered. I thought, "why can't I penetrate this noodle fortress?" Well, it's because they were hard and stuck together. I had to use a knife to cut through them and it still wasn't easy to separate them. I guess this is how the dish is served, but I prefer my noodles cooked, hot, and soft, which these were not. The noodles were crunchy, but there was no indication of this on the menu that I recall. Anyway, it was tasty, but I won't order them again. There are many other options that I would like to try some day, if i feel like parting with 30% more money than usual for lunch.
