| - Aseoma has fast become one of my favorite places to eat on Murray. Their menu is both extensive and interesting, and everything I've ordered so far has been very good. Prices are quite reasonable, portions are large and food quality is high, with lots of fresh meats and vegetables.
Some of my favorites are:
--The black bean noodles (their version of zhajiangmian) with wonderfully chewy wheat noodles and a nice, thick black bean sauce which is not overly salty (as some zhajiangmian can be).
--I agree with other reviewers that their Pad Thai is the best in town, with thin-sliced chicken (thinner than you're thinking), shrimp, a hint of shallots and a tasty sliced green vegetable (not quite sure what it was, but it was good!). The addition of a bit of vegetables to the Pad Thai is not typical, but brilliant -- it provides the dish with wonderful balance to it's typical sweet-tangy sauce.
--Their Korean-fusion burritos are pretty cool as well, and are perfect for when you're not as hungry. Having bulgogi-style beef in a taco is, quite simply, awesome, and it's balanced well with rice, fruit and slightly spicy sauce.
