🍜 Taiwanese Comfort Food｜LA

A hidden Taiwanese gem in LA Downtown—Pine and Crane. Cozy, homestyle noodles that warm the soul! 🥢 Their popcorn chicken comes in big, juicy pieces—seasoned with peppery salt and fried to a satisfying crunch. So addictive! The dan dan noodles are actually sesame sauce noodles—rich sesame aroma with a hint of chili oil, creating a sweet-salty combo that’s surprisingly delicious! 😋 The pan-fried buns were just okay—not very juicy, but well-seasoned. We also tried their beef noodle soup via takeout—generous beef portions in a savory, soy-based broth. Really tasty! 🐮🍜 The restaurant’s modern decor and vibe feel a bit contrasting with the humble, homely food—but maybe that’s part of its charm? Have you been to Pine & Crane?
