This is my first time to the “Richmond Public Market”, and maybe my last given how troublesome parking was…. The narrow lanes, tight stalls, and reckless driving makes the trouble hardly worth it. And that’s a shame because the food from their food court is some of the most authentic, and our lunch spot is well known in the community as having some of the best noodles in the city. Delicious noodles in a time where instagram is littered with #noodlepulls, and individuals are striving to find the best bowl in the city.

Chinese food is incredibly diverse with each region offering different variations of their take on what makes their culture and food unique. Most can agree that Chinese food can be classified into eight regional cuisines and the distinction lies in how the food is traditionally prepared (braising, sautéing, stir-frying, steaming, stewing, etc!). An influx of different types of Chinese cuisine are slowly trickling into the food scene and it’s quite exciting to know other types of Chinese cuisine exist other than your typical dim sum joint or Hong-Kong style cafe.

So it seems that fresh hand pulled noodles and meat burgers are actually specialties in the city of Xi'An as well as at this stall upstairs in Richmond Public Market. I have often gravitated to the man pulling the noodles and passed by the steam tables of deep fried this and that at other stalls in the market and i don't regret it. On this visit, I tried the Pork Burgers (2 for $9) which were nicely chewy buns, no condiments that I am aware of and filled with tasty tender pork. Very nice. I ordered Beef Noodle Soup ( also $9) to go for my partner who was working at the time. A bit of a problem is that the noodles absorbed all the stock by the time the soup got to her. Still tasty...just not soup. My mistake not theirs. The man behind the noodles is all business which is not a bad thing as everything seems to be prepared to order. This stall is on Richmond's Dumpling Trail so I will be back for that!
