Wok & Flame has opened recently at the Maple & Nine Marketplace in Shrewsbury. This cozy fast casual halal eatery serves up made to order wok bowls with choices of noodles, veggies, proteins, and sauces, plus ready to go meals like Bangkok chicken, Nippon beef, Hong Kong shrimp, Tsunami chicken, Tofu pattaya, Tso's chicken, fried dumplings, crab Rangoon, and can soda & bottled water.
Recently, I placed an online order to Wok & Flame, ordering a made to order wok bowl ($7.99 plus tax) with udon noodles, cabbage, carrots, onions, tofu (add $3.80), 3 extra veggies ($3.80)-broccoli, baby corn, pineapple, and Nippon teriyaki sauce and it was scheduled to be ready in 25 minutes after ordering. I drove from Framingham to Shrewsbury in that time and when I arrived, the place was getting slammed. The seating area was very full with families and rambunctious kids. My order would be another 10-15 minutes since there were about six orders ahead of mine, no biggie. I watched the cooks freshly prepare food in their 2 flaming woks through the glass. My order was all set in 10 minutes after walking in the door. Tables were clearing out, so I had a place to sit and eat.
The wok noodle dish came in a red paper box container, about 85 percent filled in the box, figuring I could've paid for more ingredients. The hot wok udon noodles with the veggies, tofu, and teriyaki sauce had good flavors. I would probably come back here for some noodles with my buddy who lives around the corner. read more
