Sliced Noodles
“I always go with knife-sliced noodles when given the choice because I like thicker, chewier noodles.”
“A great cheap lunch, pairs nicely with a bubble tea from Kung Fu Tea next door.”
“I would def recommend just getting the spicy sauce on the side and adding it on yourself.”

SO GOOOOOD. Man, I wish Flushing weren't so far away!
It's part of a huge food court of amazing and delicious food including noodles, stir fry, hot pot, teriyaki, bubble tea, shaved ice, and more. So hard to choose from. I was torn between here and Lan Zhou Hand Pulled Noodles a few stalls down. Lan Zhou looked like there were more people there, but I'm super happy with my choice that I can't imagine it could be better.
I got the beef hand-pulled noodles for only $3.99. Noodles tasted super fresh with great texture. The beef was plentiful, very tender, and no weird, nasty bits. The broth was amazing! Not too salty or greasy and incredibly flavorful. There were also some veggies — bok choy and bean sprouts, I think. Reasonably big bowl. I ate everything, drank all my soup, and was happy as a clam!
I had the Beef Brisket noodle soup with vermicelli noodles ($5.95). It was okay. I know that I am just not into the flavors with this kind of cuisine. I am used to Cantonese flavors. So it's just me. I have to say, the cashier was very patient with me. I mean I speak Cantonese and she can't understand me either in English or Cantonese. YIKES. The guys in stall started to stare at me….and one of the guys said in Mandarin to the other bigger guy that he likes to listen to me speak Cantonese and he was REALLY SMILING at me. OMG. Is he hitting on me and he has to have the other bigger guy translate to me, I think so! ha! He stared at me FOREVER. He was entertained by my Cantonese and probably impressed by my fake Mandarin and by my charade skillz!
The bigger guy was my translator. He knew a bit of English and Cantonese. I mean….vermicelli noodles in Cantonese is Fun See…….in Mandarin…I said…Fun Siay. I mean…is it that different?! ha. I made up my Mandarin and they got it! That was pretty funny. I just threw in a twang and they were like…OHHHH. YEEEES! WE GOT IT. Geeeeee.
Fried Dumplings ($4.75) (were only okay)
in Cantonese….WAR TEEP
in Mandarin….WAAr Tiep
Really? She couldn't understand Cantonese??!! I mean…I just made up the twang! HA! I really did! I was just chancing she might understand it better…and she did!
The real barrier came when I asked for a bowl. GEEZ what an ordeal. I had to use charades. I guess I was playing charades at the New World Mall food court. Can be pretty fun unless you are hungry.
They have their own vinegar here. IT IS AMAZING. I put it all over everything I ate.
When I left the stall the guy who was staring at me watched me leave….I hope he wasn't too sad afterwards! haahhahahhahah!
Definitely attracted to this stall in the New World Mall food court because of the sign featuring a big plate of beautiful crayfish. After putting in that order, we saw one of the staff holding a pan with what looked like a pancake in it. My more discerning friend identified it as fried dumplings; these were longish, open-ended dumplings, arranged like spokes of a wheel and fried, then flipped upside down on to a plate so the single layer fried side is on top. We saw their namesake noodles being made but didn't get to them this visit.
The crayfish were as beautiful in person as the photo, but otherwise fairly disappointing. The ma la sauce was anything but numbing, although if you didn't know it was supposed to be ma la, it was tasty enough. The delicate flavor of crayfish just couldn't stand up to the sauce and was completely overwhelmed by it. And because most of the crayfish is inedible, not entirely worth it. No more crayfish for me.
The fried dumplings were fantastic! Filled with juicy, tender pork and chives, soft pliant skin where it wasn't fried, and thinly crispy where it was, these were addictive and I have to have them again soon.
$3.99 for a massive bowl of Beef Noodle Soup!! They give you a huge helping of their hand-pulled noodles. You can even watch the guy making the noodles while you're waiting – it's actually quite fascinating.
Anyways, the soup was pretty decent, but not spectacular. The broth is pretty much the standard that you'd find at any fast food noodle shop. They give you a ton of noodles though, and if you want a little spice (since this dish isn't the malatang), they have chili on the side for you.
Worth $3.99 though, while the special lasts.
