"15"^^ . . . "1"^^ . "3"^^ . "2018-02-13T00:00:00"^^ . . "[LOCATION] - 3/5\nHidden in a small plaza on Midland Ave. between McNicoll Ave. and Finch Ave. E (I know, it's kind\rof hard to find). There were plenty of parking spots when we went there for lunch on a weekend.\n\n[SERVICE] - 3/5\nAverage. Server brought our order sheet to the kitchen and brought us our order after a few minutes.\n\n[D\u00C9COR] - 4/5\nReminisced a small noodle shop in Southern China with their wooden furniture, and fai chun on the\rwalls (red strips of paper with phrases to bring good luck and prosperity). I also noticed the chairs\rare very narrow, probably because this place is good for a quick meal (typical Chinese-style lunch),\rand you really don't need to be too comfortable.\n\n[FOOD QUALITY] - 3/5\nMeats were high-quality and tender. Broth was also very rich, but a little too oily. One of the biggest\rdrawbacks was that the noodles were too soggy.\n\n[ORDER] - 3/5\n- Large Ox Tail Vermicelli in Soup - $11.00: ox tail was braised very well as the flavours\nwere so pleasantly savoury with a hint of sweetness.\n\n- Large Mutton Vermicelli in Soup - $10.00: mutton had subtle flavours, not gamey, but\nwas a little bland in comparison with the ox tail.\n\n[OVERALL] - 3/5\nI would give this place a higher rating, but noodle texture plays a major role in a good bowl of\rnoodles, and this one was not firm enough for my liking. Other than that, the Ox Tail Vermicelli\rin Soup would be perfect if you enjoy deliciously braised ox tail and noodles with a softer\rtexture."^^ . "4"^^ .
