*reviewing for us picky Americans traveling abroad*…read more Fantastic Lanzhou noodle bar, actually got recommended this place after visiting the Chinese pharmacist for my back. I googled most of the restaurants in Chinatown and it looked like my high school GPA (not even a 4.0) so this place coming directly from the mouth of my pharmacist. Great broth, meat quality is superb, noodles were okay. Chili oil 8/10. Small bistro style, so prepare to share a table.

After 10 days in the UK, we were ready for a break from pub food and stumbled upon Lanzhou Noodle…read moreBar in Covent Garden -- such a great find! It's a tiny spot with just two communal tables inside (seating about six each) and a few outdoor tables. Definitely not the place for a long, lingering dinner -- this is quick, tasty, and casual dining. The noodles are made fresh on-site, and you can actually watch them being pulled, which is really fun to see. I ordered the chicken and peanut noodle soup -- it was flavorful, comforting, and hit the spot. The staff was friendly, though you can tell they like to keep things moving since there's usually a line out the door (and sometimes down the street!). If you're in the area and want something fresh, fast, and different from the usual London fare, this place is absolutely worth a stop.

I also found free WIFI on site. I find this place is much better than waiting in line at Four Seasons!

The service was great from the time we walked into the restaurant. We ordered a few items from the menu: chow-mein, chicken fried-rice, KungPao chicken, 2 sizzling lamb dishes-and all were superb. The 2 ladies working were so kind and genuinely cared about their patrons and their experience. I would definitely recommend New Bowl Chinese for great Chinese food in an unpretentious setting.

The food is old-fashioned Chinese takeaway, but done pretty well. Last time I had beef with black bean sauce and peppers, and it was a tasty sauce, but some of the beef was really chewy and the rice was a bit cold. So it's not perfect, but when we've been in a group less than 10 people, it's been better.

The portion sizes on our combination meat and rice platter and chicken in black bean sauce was on the smaller side yet the flavor profiles and freshness was incredible. Water, chili oil and sliced spicy peppers were available in the back to help ourselves. Pricing wasn't too expensive but maybe we ordered the wrong items as they were small. Cute little establishment and would definitely recommend as options are a little limited in this category in the Hyde Park/Kensington area!

I got the variety platter, which comes with 9 different dishes for around £13, as well as a cup of soy milk. I'm not sure if the dishes change over time, but mine had a meat bao, 2 dumplings, tea egg, condensed milk, porridge, scallion pancake, a side dish, fried dough stick, and fried milk buns. It was a good variety of food and I was very full by the end. I only wished that they would provide wifi to their customers. They had it, but wouldn't give me the password. It would've made the experience a bit better

Xian is the ancient capital of China, end of the Silk Road. Therefore, Xian food is Chinese food with a middle eastern flare. The namesake of the restaurant, murger, is momo, a baked bread you can put random meat inside or put it in a soup. We ordered the murger with cumin beef. Order it spicy. It taste like a spicy gyro. Amazing. For the main course both my wife and I both had the beef biang biang noodle. Thick hand pulled noodles over an inch thick, in a flavorful broth, with 5 different toppings of meat and vegetables. The tomato and egg is definitely reminded me of home cooking growing up in China. My wife was born in America and this bowl of noodles blew her mind. So if you are anywhere near this place, drop in and try it.
