🥟 A Hearty Dinner for Lunar New Year! 🐉✨
It’s been a few years since I last visited Lanzhou Noodles, and I went on Valentine’s Night during the Lunar New Year—I couldn’t believe how quiet they were! 🧧❤️ The night was freezing cold, and I’m sure most visitors stayed closer to the heart of Chinatown, like Mott Street. But soon after I arrived, more people started coming in, so I didn’t have to dine alone! 😊 The food and service were absolutely fantastic. Here’s what I enjoyed: 🥢 Pork & Chive Steamed Dumplings – So flavorful and tender! I ordered six decent-sized dumplings served with soy sauce. They were perfectly made, and I highly recommend starting with these! 🙌 🥢 Pan-Fried Pork Buns – Came as three round buns stuffed with minced pork and dipping sauce. Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside—so delicious! 🤤 🍜 Chicken Longevity Noodles – The noodles were freshly made in-house! Tender slices of chicken and fresh veggies made this a warm, comforting bowl. The portion was huge—enough for three people! It tasted even better the next day. 🍲💖 The service was wonderful, making it such a pleasant and cozy evening despite the cold outside. ❄️🏮 #LunarNewYearFeast #LanzhouNoodles #ChinatownEats #DumplingLove #FreshNoodles
