🍜 Milwaukee Food Find — LaoJiu Rice Noodles
Discovered a noodle spot in Milwaukee that emphasizes no MSG 🍜✨.The broth is light and clean—almost more veggie-forward than meaty—but the noodles themselves have a great chewy texture! The side dishes, on the other hand, are bold and SPICY 🌶️🔥 Solid experience overall—definitely worth a try! 🍖 Beef Bone Rice Noodles Rating:4/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very mild broth—almost doesn’t taste like bone broth. Loaded with veggies like lettuce. The beef bone had plenty of meat—super satisfying to gnaw on 😋. 🐷 Pork Bone Rice Noodles Rating4/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Similar to the beef version, just swapped with pork. Still light and veggie-rich. 🌶️Spicy Beef Rice Noodles Rating:4.5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐✨ More flavor-packed! A little spicy with a nice savory sauce base. 🍅: Tomato Beef Brisket Rice Noodles Rating:3.5/5 ⭐⭐⭐💫 Tomato flavor was decent, and the broth was veggie-heavy. Not bad—just personal preference since I’m not the biggest tomato noodle fan. 🐮: Couple’s Beef Tripe (Fu Qi Fei Pian) Rating:4.5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐✨ SPICY!! 🌶️🌶️ Only order if you handle heat. Flavor was straightforward but the spice level nailed it. Loved it. 🥢 Bamboo Shoots in Chili Oil Rating:2/5 ⭐⭐ Likely from a bag—had a preserved taste that wasn’t my favorite. 🍡 Brown Sugar Rice Cakes (Ci Ba) Rating:3/5 ⭐⭐⭐ Portion was a bit small, but taste was standard—classic sweet and chewy treat. 📍 Located west of downtown Milwaukee—about a 15-min drive.
