Today Chris and I went to Noodle House in Monterey Park. I had read great things about this place from a blogger on chowhound and had very high expectations. I could only hope that the 35 minute drive would be worth it. Let me tell you...it was.
The place is best known for making your baozi or jiaozi to order. The women in the open kitchen work frantically to steam your buns (don't go for the easy joke) as quickly as possible. We were not disappointed. We scarfed down 10 beef and onion jiaozi without speaking a word to each other.
When we finally came up for air, we tackled the beef wrapped in green onion pancake. The green onions were pretty raw, so the dish had a little bit of bite to it. But still very, very good.
Our final dish of pork and leek baozi came to our table. Eight beautiful little clouds of perfection arrived. They were amazing. Not tough. Not chewy. Not rubbery. Just light and fluffy.
