Lan Zhou

It's that time of the year again... The Midautumn/Moon Festival which means I need to get me some moon cakes over at Dinho. But let's go grab some chow at the food court first. What to eat, what to eat... You can never go wrong with the food from a guy who pulls his noodle in the corner. You know he's got skills but please put on some gloves first, pal.

Tendon Hand Pull Noodle Soup. The soup tasted like it had a powder base that was enhanced but the fresh pulled noodles made up for it... Springy, toothy and just dericious. The tendon was flavorful, soft and just not enough of it in this big bowl. I can always use more tendon, it's like gelatinous gold. Not a bad bowl at all, especially, for about $5.

Fish Ball and Beef Ball Hand Pull Noodle Soup. Every growing boy needs their daily dose of balls to become a hunky man. The fish balls looks pretty much like the standard Chinese type but the beef balls was the Vietnamese style which I like a lot. The texture of these beef balls taste so good when it hits your lips... Yeah yeah, go ahead and say it, I know you wanna. That's what she said.

Fuzhou fish balls!!!I just can't get away from these balls like a badly dressed tranny with a duct tape special on Peachtree and 5th. They weren't that bad but they were definitely frozen, most likely from the Chinese market next door. Come to think of it, so where the Vietnamese style beef balls. Not that there is anything wrong with them. And of course, the hand pulled noodles made it all better even with the instant soup base.

Watching a man pull his noodle in the corner always gives me a blood flow. Look at his guns, you know he has had lots of practice behind closed doors. Smack. Slap. Smack. Slap. Squirt.

I couldn't leave without an order of tendon to snack on later. People always ask me why my skin is always so smooth and succulent... Well, now you know, my secret is out.

The food court is always a good bet for cheap eats if you know which stall to go to and what to order... It's pretty easy actually, just look at the food on the tables that people ordered and you can tell if it's Chino grub or Chinese grub. But don't listen to my verbal vomit, go ahead and try it all... Sometimes, there's nothing wrong with the slutty over-breaded sweet & sour chicken with the nuclear red sauce. It's great when you're still fucked up from the night before... Just don't take the tranny with you. Speaking of which, don't forget to do a ball check.

Availability of items on the menu is sporadic, on this visit half of the menu were not available but you really only come here for one thing and that is to eat some dude's fleshy noodle.

2 Stars.
