Beef Noodle Soup is amazing. Noodles are fresh and springy. Almost too big to finish lol
I haven't been here in years. It reminds me of when I first graduated college and I'd come here on a Friday. It still good!
No frills spot with excellent dumplings and noodle soups. Always a great value. The spicy tendon cold dish is also great.
Love their noodle soups. My dads go to. Tried the steamed vegetables dumplings which were just ok. I know it steamed and vegetables. Their pork fried dumplings are much better. Nothing fancy. No waitress service but cheap and delicious.
Love their stir fry hand pulled noodles as well as their spicy soups. Make sure you try their mixed cold appetizers like the chilled beef tendon, tripe, or pig ears. Also have a very sweet and garlicky cucumber. Their dumplings are very crispy and packed with juicy filling. The decor is a dive but the food more than makes up for it.
Stopped by for a quick bite. The noodle soup portions are HUGE. I tried the spicy beef noodle soup and had to portion it out to two meals. Their dumplings are also quite flavorful. Quick service.
Took my son out to try new places and we came across this place that we haven't try yet around this area. After I tried them I wish I had tried them earlier! I got the tripe and tendon mix ramen noodle soup . My son got the veggies ramen noodle soup. First thing notice is that they give you a big portion compared to other places . They give you so much noodles !!! Which in my opinion is a plus. Further more the price was extremely reasonable considering what other places charge these days. The place is self serviced type of restaurant which means you clean up after yourself after u eat. It usually means You don't need to leave any tip if you don't want to but I still left some tip in the tip jar. The noodles came out relatively fast . Definitely a spot for cheap but good eat!!
11/10 What have I been missing out on all of my life? Growing up in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, I have been a loyal fan of Kai Feng Dumpling House and have refused all others -- Vanessa Dumpling was just fine, and the ones around Colombus Park in Chinatown were good, but nothing could hold a candle to that side-street hole-in the wall on 48th street. I was proven wrong when I finally made it out to Elmhurst for Lao Bei Fang. I was really really skeptical, assuming this would just be your standard fare, but I was wrong. For 5.50$, I got 8 of the crispiest dumplings I'd ever had in my life. They weren't the shape I was used to -- they were more squarish than I'm used to (I usually go for the longer kind), but the bottom of each was PERFECTLY crisp with a 5 mm layer of crunch; think bottom of the pot, burnt rice layer. Each dumpling also came with that fatty soup oozing out of it, which was the perfect balance to the succulent and flavourful meat inside. My mouth is watering as I'm writing this. Don't do what I did and stop at 8 -- go for more. You'll thank me later.
I love this place for its veggie hand pulled noodle soup. They have lots of tables and chairs that can be rearranged for groups, or you can share with another soul. The front counter person will assist you with your selection if you need something different. For example, I wanted a chicken hand pulled noodle soup without the brown sauce and they were able to provide a veggie hand pulled noodle soup with a side of cooked chicken breast (see pics). I lifted the chicken breast from the white bowl and placed it into the black soup bowl when there was ample room to do so. At the very end of the counter before the kitchen is where the hand pulled noodle magic happens! Sometimes you get to watch it being crafted. It looks like hard work but it certainly pays off with everyone's love of your hand pulled noodles. They have takeout and I'm not sure about delivery options. I didn't catch anything on their menu but maybe with GrubHub or Seamless or other food delivery services you can find what you're craving here. They have pictures on the menu and the wall so it's easy to decide what to get. They have a fridge with water and sodas to choose from as well. Sitting facing the windows has its perks at sundown. The sunset is visible and beautiful. A lot of cold/flu/covid sick people also come here to get soup, so be mindful if you're concerned about others' and your own well-being, and bring or wear a mask. Happy eats!
Nice, quick lunch in Elmhurst area. I went here on a friend's recommendation and because the place I stay in this time for my NYC trip is walking distance. CASH ONLY. On the menu, they have a variety of items including dumplings and noodles. While the menu has dumplings by the 8 pieces, I was glad to see they showed a price chart (price per dumpling fairly constant across quantities) and they offered a 4 piece option. That makes it easy for me to try both the dumplings and noodles without having leftovers. I got the fried pork and leek dumpling 4 pieces and the beef hand pulled noodle soup. The dumplings were good though I wished there was a bit more crispiness to it, because you can easily tell it is fried, but if there is not much crispiness and flavor, then the additional grease I consume is not as worthwhile. The noodles were very good, especially since it was hand pulled in house, but the soup needs a bit more flavor. There are subtle hints of beef flavor carried forth in the meat itself, though I'd love to see more. The tripe, tendon, and beef meat itself were solid - they might have mixed up my order as I wanted just the regular beef hand pulled noodle soup, but it is all good as I got the opportunity to try the other sections of the beef. Service is minimal - everything is self serve, which is very okay because it helps cut down on costs for a great value meal ($13.50 which included tax total, then I tipped some of my change on top). There is no water or tea in the counter, so it was a good call that I brought my own water bottle. You pick up the food yourself and seat yourself, and then once you are done, you bus your own table and place dirty dishes at the top of the garbage can area.
