✨ AI Quick Take
This well-known shop moved from Fuxing South Road to Jiantan Road and acts like a magician redefining handmade dough-piece noodles. It breaks their heavy, monotonous image by adding Italian pesto and Thai tom yum. The new space is more compact, but its insistence on kneading force and texture remains. There is no fancy reservation service—only honest flavor and heat control in a creative restaurant that can overturn your view of this old-fashioned noodle after one meal.
● Braised Pork & Mushroom Pesto Handmade Noodles
Pork collar is fried dry and crisp outside, then paired with fresh pesto, mushrooms, and crushed peanuts; Taiwanese fried pork surprisingly holds together with Italian herbs. Small handmade noodles are springy, and their hollows catch sauce and nutty aroma. Portions are refined rather than huge, so large appetites can add a side instead of expecting one bowl to last until midnight.
● Thai Tom Yum Surf-and-Turf Handmade Noodles
Coconut milk turns the broth into a mellow, rich tom yum variation rather than a clear soup charging straight through with sour heat. Shrimp, clams, and pork slices bring land-and-sea savor, while noodles retain chew in hot soup. It comforts in cool weather; strong sour-and-spicy fans may find it gentler than expected.
● Creative dry and soup handmade-noodle combinations
The menu centers on dry and soup noodles, using different sauces and toppings to give handmade dough many faces. Two diners can exchange one dry and one soup bowl to compare pesto coating with post-soup springiness. Set drinks, sides, and surcharges change, so calculate from the day’s menu.
First order Braised Pork & Mushroom Pesto Handmade Noodles, then add Thai Tom Yum Surf-and-Turf Handmade Noodles if you want soup. Share an extra braised-pork side if available. With no reservations and few seats, arriving early or off-peak is more comfortable than studying the menu hungry at the door.
