| - I came here with one goal in mind: the Schezuan Beef Noodle Soup.
I am a beef noodle soup, uh, obsessor, let's say. I have had it in different corners of the world and will always order it if it's available. So when I was planning my Vegas trip, I had to do a search for it and wouldn't you know, Noodle Asia popped up all nice and affordable ($14 really is over-priced but for Vegas, it's affordable).
NA's gets the flavor precisely right with just the perfect mixture of soy sauce and chili pepper. Furthermore, the beef is in chunks as it should be and incredibly tender, so you know it's been stewing forever. The noodles were my favorite kind, thick and flat. The only thing missing were the vegetables. Not the pickled garnish but the bok choy (or sometimes spinach). No vegetables included. That makes my healthy voice sad.
The shu mai were quite good, considering we were eating at 1am. And my boyfriend's Dan Dan noodles were spicy, brothy, peanut-y delicious. They did not hold back on the accompaniments. The potstickers were cold and gross. Don't order those.
Yay! I can now put a pin on Las Vegas on my beef noodle soup world map. The pin means "go back here".
