As a first timer trying Yunnan rice noodles, the whole concept of the putting in your own toppings into the soup is very amusing. There are about five different types of soup and you get a plate with about 10 side dishes that ranges from chicken wing, beef, cabbage, ham, corn, quail egg and etc. The side dishes are pre-selected and I did not have any option to include or exclude anything.
The two appetizier dishes I tried were:
--House Special Squid Tentacles Skewer (quite spicy and nothing too special)
--Cold Glass Noodles with Chili Sauce (actually really good and my favorite dish, I wished it came with more... even though it is served with Chili sauce, it was not spicy whatsoever. I even took some free refilled rice noodles to dip it into the sauce)
The two types of rice noodles that I have tried were:
--Oriental Spicy Sauce Rice Noodle w. Meatballs
--Oriental Original Rice Noodle w. Seafood.
Out of both the types of soup base, I would say the Oriental Original was much better than the Oriental Spicy Sauce. The sauce was very clear and I was able to taste the flavor of the soup while the spicy sauce is usually overbearing.
