It was so magical watching the chef stretch, pull, and cut the noodles with ease. Everyone in my party ranted and raved about the \"spot on\" al dente texture of our noodles. The perfectly crafted noodles that I had ordered were about the size of tagliatelle pasta. Broth was served on the side to cut through the sweet, pungent hoisin based sauce served on the noodles. You could order three different sizes depending on the size of your appetite. I ordered a medium. It was so good that I almost ate it all, yet I was amazed that I didn't have that greasy, salty stuffed-up feeling in my stomach that I sometimes get at certain Chinese food restaurants. \n\nIf you drink your broth, you might be okay with the small. I'm on a low-sodium diet so I tend to avoid drinking the broth. Also, a side note--someone ordered the vegetarian noodles and was surprised that the broth was a curry based one. She loved it, though and said it was one of the best broths that she's had. I'm not sure if she just didn't read the menu well or if it wasn't specifically noted. \n\nAnyway, the place was packed (try not to take your shopping bags with you because things are cramped here) so I am not the only one thinking that this place is awesome. I will definitely return to Nouilles de Lan Zhou (so good that I have the name memorized) when visiting Montreal again. No credit cards. Prices were reasonable. I think it was cash only."^^ .
