Really nice and friendly staff and affordable priced simple, authentic, yummy Chinese noodle. Hand made noodle's texture is incomparable, chewy and doesn't become mushy / doughy, 彈牙有嚼勁! You can even see the chef moulding the dough from a glass panel and see how its being made. Tried both their soup noodle (dine in) and stir fried noodles dish (takeaway) and liked them both, the noodle is rlly versatile. Broth of the soup is perfect, not overpowering but flavourful, chicken is alright but if I had to rank everything it definitely would be noodle & soup chicken. Only thing to beware of is that they accept cash only, which is a bit inconvenient... but I'm happy to support small independently run shops with their preferred means of payments for this food quality.

Visited here before the theatre for some hand stretched noodles and to try some Dezhou chicken. The restaurant is very small but service is fast. Noodles are super tasty and the Dezhou chicken melted like butter and was so full of flavour. This is a must visit spot if you are in the area and love noodles

Braised chicken is a must-try! The biangbiang noodles are also fantastic and the perfect chewy texture. Even better with black vinegar. Love this place and the friendly staff!
