Xing’s Kitchen — Restaurant in Sugar Land

I recently had the pleasure of dining at the most popular Chinese noodle restaurant in sugarland. Xing’s kitchen offers a delightful variety of regional noodle dishes. This establishment impressed me with its diverse menu, offering both Shaanxi-style "Youpo Mian" and Henan-style "Yangrou Huimian."

Let's start with the Shaanxi Youpo Mian. The Youpo Mian here is a true gem, featuring chewy noodles and a well-balanced, moderately spicy sauce that keeps you coming back for more. The ambiance is cozy and clean, and the staff is exceptionally friendly. Plus, it won't break the bank, making it a fantastic value for a mouthwatering, spicy noodle experience.

On the other hand, the Henan Yangrou Huimian is an equally remarkable offering. The Yangrou Huimian served here is a culinary delight, with hearty noodles, tender and juicy lamb, and a rich, savory broth that's truly unforgettable. The restaurant's ambiance is warm and welcoming, and the staff ensures you feel right at home. While it may be slightly pricier, the quality and taste make it well worth the investment for an exceptional lamb noodle experience.

The appetizer features a delightful combination of flavors and textures, with smoked chicken and marinated pig feet taking center stage. The smoked chicken is a tender and succulent showcase of culinary expertise, with a perfectly smoky aroma and a rich, savory taste that lingers on the palate. Its meat is delicately seasoned and cooked to perfection, ensuring a mouthwatering experience for every bite.

Complementing the smoked chicken, the marinated pig feet offer a unique and tantalizing contrast. The pig feet are marinated in a flavorful blend of spices and seasonings, resulting in a harmonious balance of sweet and savory notes. The marinade enhances the natural richness of the meat, making it tender and full of flavor. With every bite, the marinated pig feet offer a delightful interplay of textures, from the tender outer layer to the gelatinous, melt-in-your-mouth interior.

Together, these two elements create an appetizer that is both visually appealing and a gastronomic delight. The smoked chicken and marinated pig feet combination provides a memorable and indulgent culinary experience, making it a standout choice for those who appreciate complex, savory, and succulent flavors.

In conclusion, this restaurant is a noodle lover's paradise, offering both spicy and lamb noodle dishes. Whether you're craving the zesty flavors of Shaanxi Youpo Mian or the succulent indulgence of Henan Yangrou Huimian, this place has you covered. Don't miss out on this fantastic opportunity to savor the best of both regional noodle worlds...

If noodles are your love language, especially authentic ones, then don't skip out on this place. This mom and pop serves up delicious hand-pulled noodle dishes, flavorful braised meats, and tasty veggie appetizers that complements the meal. On the most recent visit, I got the popular Henan lamb noodle soup, braised beef, woodear mushroom appetizer, and rou jia mo (chinese hamburger). -lamb noodle soup: I'm not really familiar with Henan-style food, but this noodle soup got me hooked, and those who favors lamb over any other protein can't help but to devour the whole bowl. The soup base is light with savory lamb flavor, and the hand-pulled noodles, glass noodles, shredded tofu slices, woodear mushroom, lamb slices, and quail eggs, all comes together so well, wish it was possible for me to stomach two of these bowls. -braised beef: they used beef shank and the dish is often eaten cold as an appetizer, but I like to order this as a side to have with the noodle soup. Definitely gotta try. -woodear mushroom appetizer: I like the flavoring of the vinegar, garlic, and soysauce that goes into this dish. Calling all mushroom lovers to give this a go. -rou jia mo: these chinese hamburger leaves you with no guilt after chowing down on one (or more). With a light bun stuffed with braised chopped up pork, you can't stop at one bite. They also have homemade chili oil when dining in, that will actually add some spice to your life (or food), so don't be shy to show some love to the noodles (or any of the dishes) by drenching them with the flavorful hot chili oil. Aside from amazing authentic food, service is great, and place is nice and clean. It's a small restaurant so seating is about 5-6 tables inside with a couple additional seating outside. It's conveniently located inside the Sugarland Jusgo market, so you can do a grocery trip and food run in one go. And if you're not feeling noodle soup, give these a try: the shaanxi oil noodles and noodles with sesame paste. And don't forget to grab some braised chicken, smashed cucumbers, and dry sliced tofu as well,...

Update 11/04/2023: Still so delicious. Definitely better when eaten fresh from the kitchen instead of to-go. Shanxi noodles got the perfect bite and flavor. Best thing here hands down.

Awesome, authentic place for a quick bite inside Jusgo in Sugar Land!

Came for lunch on a weekday and got their Shanxi oil noodles, beef noodle soup, marinaded cucumbers, and the pork burger.

Everything was super delicious. The Shanxi oil noodles were my favorite, it comes topped with some chili oil and special house sauce that is ridiculously tasty. No meat on this thing, only bok choy, but it's so good you don't miss the protein.

The beef noodle soup was very tasty as well, though fair warning it is a bit herbally and has a pretty strong kick. I found it delicious but if you're adverse to strong Chinese herbal flavor, you may not enjoy it as much.

The cucumbers were well marinaded and reminds me of my childhood. Very light and refreshing appetizer.

The pork burger was very good too, with a bun that's crunchy on the outside and soft, slightly chewy inside.

Everything here was made fresh to order, so there can be a slight wait time from when you order to when the food gets to your table. It's truly a mom and pop shop that's also mainly self serve, so don't expect table service here. Orders are placed at the counter then you grab a seat to wait for your food.

I highly recommend this place for authentic northern Chinese food. The menu isn't huge but what they do serve are...
