This was part of our dining experience during the SLS stay cation event, and I have to say I was truly impressed and more than full and satisfied.
Service at Ku Noodle was awesome and very accommodating. I also love the casual attire for the staff but still hotel restaurant quality service and decor so it's like you know you're eating somewhere really good, but can still feel casual and comfortable during your dining experience there.
We started with the snow pea leaf salad that has orange slices and jasmine lily bulbs that are edible!! Talk about a perfect light crisp citrus blend salad with a fusion twist. Very light and refreshing and was the perfect way for me to start my meal here.
Then we were served pork and shrimp siu mai and their crispy Bao buns (slider size) and tbh the siu mais were okay... And to me they were a little too small. But taste wise it was nothing mind blowing and I've had better. But oh man the Bao buns I really really enjoyed and I will definitely be back for more!! It was like a banh mi in a slider bun form!!
The two larger entrees we were treated with were two noodle dishes, the Beijing Tomato noodle which is like a tomato basil with egg. Fusion mix, like basil tomato meets Chinese chow fun but with light tomato sauce instead of dry soy sauce. The other noodle dish was Dan Dan Mian Noodles which was a spicy pork hoisen sauce consistency with carrots peanuts and sliced cucumbers. I enjoyed this as well but the spicy pork sauce was a little strong tasting for me. Like not salty but very sweet soy very similar to how hoisen sauce taste. But still enjoyable. I preferred the Beijing Noodles but honestly I will be back to try both again!!
The icing (haha) on the cake was the Taiwanese Mango shaved ice with coconut shavings, lychee, and mochi balls and talk about flavors melting in your mouth!! Huge serving enough to truly share with 4 people and not finish it. But the mango flavor shaved ice was 100% on point like I was eating fresh ripe mango!!! Best way to end the night!
Very clean and modern white decor and I really loved the atmosphere of this place!! The 4/5 coz I was very satisfied and happy with the food and service and the drinks (btw their drinks are strong) but nothing was really palate mind blowing expect the dessert. But I'm definitely going to go back for another experience to see if I can't give them that additional 1star and bump it to 5stars!!!
