Wuhan is the capital of Hubei province in Central China. They are known for their hot dry noodles where the main seasoning is sesame paste topped with a good helping of chili oil and spring onions.
According to the Chinese Ministry of Commerce, Wuhan's dry hot noodles are the most popular noodles in China followed by Beijing's fried sauce noodles (aka Zha Jiang Mian) and Shanxi's knife-shaved noodles.
This place opened not too long ago with two locations currently (the other one is at Yonge and Sheppard). I have been meaning to try this place and I finally made the trip over.
We ordered the dry hot noodles with chicken as well as a beef noodle soup.
The egg noodles were nicely done and springy for both dishes. I found the sesame paste pretty thick so it gets quite clingy against your throat as you eat the noodles unlike other types of dry noodle such as dan dan or shanghai-style sesame noodles.
Personally I Iiked the beef noodle soup more. The broth was flavourful and savoury with a decent kick. Would have liked the soup base to be a bit more piping hot. Spiciness can be adjusted to your liking for those who want more of a kick or a milder version.
