The Handpulled Noodle
The Handpulled Noodle is North Western Chinese Soul food – hearty and unapologetic in its use of robust spices and flavors
The hand pulled noodles of the Xinjiang region are unique and different from more commonly known styles that come from Lanzhou/Shaanxi (which are pulled very thin, something made possible only with the use of an alkaline additive). Our noodles are made using just water and flour, and are rustic and imperfect by design. They are characterized by variations in thickness and uniformity, which makes eating them a fun textural journey!
Our house favorite is Cumin Lamb and Ding Ding Noodles, a chopped noodle that is a regional specialty that could be described as being like a mini Chinese gnocchi and are super addictive!
Màn Màn Chī!
