Toronto approved Lanzhou noodles
Spotted this restaurant a while ago when I was having cart noodles opposite.
Omni Palace specializes in Lanzhou Noodles and they have a branch in Toronto!
The noodles are hand pulled by the Noodle master and there are various types ranging from thin to thick.
It would be great if they had a FULL English menu like Toronto.
Ordered the lamb skewers, Traditional Lanzhou Beef Noodles and the Lanzhou noodles in Sauce.
Compared to Canada, I felt that there are regional differences as the Hong Kong version was a bit localized or had a strange Hong Kong twist to it with the egg since there are no eggs in Canada.
Canada serves daikon with the noodles and does not have egg!
Just like McDonalds, the New York inspired Burger has egg whereas the UK New York Inspired burger seemed more New York as they served bagel while HK weirdly used Hollandaise sauce.
Started with the lamb skewers which were tender and juicy laced with my favourite cumin.
There is a rack of spices at the back which is reassuring.
The Beef Noodles were more than delicious because the broth had so many spices like cumin, coriander and chili that give you that authentic twist.
It was just lacking DAIKON! If you google the recipe, it will have daikon.
The noodles were the best I have had because they were firm , yet silky with a chew.
The noodles in soy bean paste were good but I thought it just tasted like an adaptation of dan dan noodles and this is not on the Canadian menu!
Overall, impressed so I will be back.
FOR MORE INFO IN ENGLISH, I strongly recommend the Canadian Website as it has a lot so information about Lanzhou noodles and history etc.
