    Chinese Sausage and Pork bowl.
    Jeff I.

    Liked the concept, just not the execution. There were elements we really liked. The flavor of the sausage, crunch on some of the rice, taste on the pork. Dislikes- not much meat on pork pieces, more than half the rice along the bottom was burnt.

    I've been looking for a clay pot rice place and when this came across my feed, I knew I had to check it out! It was still a bit busy when I went on a weekday evening with around a 25 minute wait. I got the cantonese style one (16.99) which came with bacon, duck leg and sausage, little spicy. Though, it didn't taste spicy at all. The rice was crispy and came with a LOT of meat as well as some sauce, pickled mustard greens and soup. The soup was very healing tasting and a great prelude to my meal. It was quite filling and I even had leftovers I'd definitely come back when I'm craving clay pot rice!

    Food stall in the Yaohan Centre food court. Busy on a weekend with a decent line to the cashier. Was the 2nd most popular stall in the food court at the time. They serve two things: 1. noodle soup where you can customize the noodle, soup, and ingredients, and 2. claypot rice. They offer some different topping combinations for the claypot rice. I got the cured pork and chicken claypot rice. Claypot rice takes a bit of time, so it was 15 min for the order to be ready. If you are eating at the food court, they serve it in the claypot. Comes with a small cup of soy sauce, a bowl of soup and a serving of pickled veggies (green beans). It's legit claypot rice since you do get the nice crispy burnt rice at the bottom of the pot. Pretty good flavors on the chicken, mixed with salty cured pork and sour pickled veggies make for a pretty good meal. Decent portions. The soup was not too bad either. Price was $16.

    Great, fresh, hot, authentic clay pot rice and noodles. The clay pot rice is such a treat, excellent temperature, controlled spice level, and you get the crispy rice from the edges. It takes about 15-20 mins for each clay pot rice order, but it's worth the wait.

    This is in the food court of Yaohan Centre. Lines can get long but it varies based on when you get here. The staff are quick to take ur order. If you are sharing dishes, there is a .25 fee for extra plates with utensils. You order your food, find a table, and return for your order when your number is called. We ordered a chicken and pork rib clay pot rice, a non spicy beef noodle soup, and a clay pot rice with Chinese sausage and marinated meats. You do have to wait a bit for your clay pot rice to cook (15 or so minutes) but it gives you a chance to look around. Meat to rice ratio could have been better but the flavor was fine and the crispy rice at the bottom was good. The beef noodle soup was delicious and the broth was flavorful.

    The wait is long but its worth it. The trick is to time the rice for it to stay at the bottom long for it to be crispy but not too long that it hardens where toj can't scrape it off. The rice was very flavourful and just enough for be very satisfied. The meat to ratio is good. Tried the chicken and Chinese sausage rice and it hit the spot. The place is in a good court so getting a table isn't too bad during off peak hours. This place doesn't open for dinner.

    Ajea Noodle (in Chinese means "Love your home" based on the Chinese character) 3700 No.3 Road, Richmond Located at Yoahan Centre Food Court I decided to check out the claypot rice at Ajea. We came on a weekday at 12 noon, there was a line up! And... the line up continued while we were eating there. So they make this Szechuan noodles that seems to be popular. I came for the claypot rice, despite the long line up, it moved quite fast. I placed my order for chicken & Chinese sausage claypot rice, I was told it was a 25 minutes wait. After 25 mins, my order was ready! Came with a small container of special soya sauce for the claypot rice with soup & pickled veggies. I did ask for an extra soya sauce thinking the sauce may not be enough. Trust me, one sauce was enough. The claypot rice met my expectation! I needed to just use one sauce as it was quite salty. I like the burnt rice bottom, the burnt was just perfect for me. The chicken was nicely seasoned, tender & the Chinese sausage was a perfect match with the chicken. A wonderful meal...I now have a place to go for my claypot rice. Cash Only, parking is plentiful

    Wanted to try the clay pot rice here for some time, finally did and it was tasty. This food stall is probably the busiest in the Yohan foot court. The clay pots are made to order and take time, so if you're in a rush, this place probably isn't for you. Also tried the soup noodle, but just not a big fan of the numbing spice. This is a food court so don't expect much more ambiance than that. Order, get your food, eat, and leave.

    Tasty rices dishes heated in a clay pot that really makes the tastes come out amazing. I had the green bean pork ribs on rice and it was delicious but I felt the portions were just the slightest tad too small for me .rice dishes or noodle both got for about $16 .

    Super tasty claypot (potted rice) place inside the Yaohan food court. Parking is plentiful in the Yaohan lot. I actually came here expecting to try the noodle soup, but noticed everyone was ordering claypots. Time to give that a go. The claypots are custom made to order, so they do take about 15 minutes. The claypots are oh so pretty. See photo. They can do various levels of spicy, which is really just different levels of chopped jalapenos and chilis. Definitely quite a bit of kick. The combo comes with a bowl of soup, a dish of pickled beans, and some dipping sauce for the meat chunks. The rice is crispy but not burnt. They get it just right. Special mention. I'd gladly eat here again. Recommended.

    We came here on a saturday at 11am and there were already people lining up before it opened. We didn't realize that it was cash only so we ended up ordering on fantuan and picked up the food after about 15 minutes. We got the beef noodle with bok choy, mild spice, and it was pretty decent! The mild spicy is definitely spicier than usual and it also has a numb flavor to it which makes it interesting. Even though we got it in take out style, the portion is actually huge so we ended up taking it home. But it came out to be under $15 and it was worth it.

    Located in the middle of Yaohan center food court, this small restaurant offers food that packs a punch. I always get the spiciest option because I rarely find satisfaction in spice levels. Lucky me I found Ajea Noodles that truly satisfy my taste buds for spice!!!!! It is always the most busiest restaurant in the food court and you will always see everyone with a bowl of noodles. The noodles are cooked to perfection and the flavor is SO GOOD. Worth the wait if there is one but their service is quite fast for how busy they almost always are! Cant wait to go back AGAINNNNNN. They are cash or wechat/alipay only.

    Noodles with signature soup base, sweet potato noodles, intestines
    Stephanie M.

    We arrived at 11:05 and there were already people ahead of us in line. We ordered the noodle with signature broth, sweet potato noodles and pork intestines. We also ordered the Cantonese style clay pot rice. They told us it would take around 15-20 minutes. They asked if we wanted the noodles and rice out at the same time and we said yes. It took around 30 minutes for the rice to be ready so if you are in a rush please come early because afterwards I heard them telling people it would take around an hour for the rice. They have a limited amount of stoves so it takes longer for the rice to be ready. The noodles were pretty delicious and addicting. They are very generous with the toppings and the noodles. Lots of intestines inside and I didn't feel super thirsty after eating it. I love the salty marinated veggies inside. Everything goes so well together. Next time I will try the sweet and sour soup base with potato noodles instead. The Cantonese clay pot rice was also delicious. The rice was well cooked. Each grain was separate from each other and it had a good amount of crispiness on the bottom. They are also very generous with the sausage and marinated dried duck. Next time I would try the spicy Sichuan style one or the chicken one because it looked good when they were making it. I would definitely come back!

Congee was good - the pork was nice and soft, the pi dan creamy. Won ton was fine - not as flavorful as the other dishes, but it hit the spot. Service is fast and friendly; they accept cash, debit, WeChat or Alipay. Parking is free and plentiful in the morning (if you come later in the day, it'll likely be full due to the sharing of the plaza by several other restaurants).

We ordered the soup with the expectation that it would be in some medium-sized bowl that the two of us can easily share. The soup actually was giant and is meant for a family. Luckily, it was absolutely delicious; the pork was super tender, the egg fits in perfectly, and the broth was tasty. Every drop was finished. The braised pork belly was also delicious. Tender and fatty, I wished there was so much more sauce for the rice to soak in. I'm also a super fan of pork floss, so loved its inclusion. The side is also noteworthy. The radish soup was so flavorful yet light, and the tofu was fantastic. Everything we ate was five stars on its own. Only panic was when paying our server said they only accept cash or debit?

I'd been wanting to try some Xian specialities: particularly liangpi and paomo. My group shared two liangpi (the classic and the sesame, these were around 8-9 dollars each and you could probably eat one as a meal or share with someone as an appetizer/side), a biang biang noodle in Xian pork vinegar soup as well as a lamb paomo. Both liangpis which are cold chewy noodles were flavourful and had a great texture (I think I'd recommend classic if it's your first time!) What blew me away was the biang biang soup, the pork pieces were generous and the vinegarness of the soup was very unique. The paomo had vermicelli and lots of soaked bread pieces and lamb: much more gentle and lamb flavoured. Overall, portions were huge and the bill came out to around $55 for everything which was more than reasonable! Note that if your bill is under $30, they only take cash and if over, debit is an option but no credit. I'll definitely be back to this spot ‍
