House Made Rice Noodles With Pickled Beans in Oakland
Slurp southern Chinese comfort food on a slow weekend morning, with doors opening at half past ten AM.
🍜 A Guilin Morning
Give the weekend a slower start, with a bowl and an open morning ahead. Fen Classic Guilin Rice Noodles brings southern Chinese cooking to 188 10th Street in downtown Oakland, with a kitchen focused on the flavors of Guilin.
Smooth noodles made in house form the base, alongside savory broth and tender marinated meats. Fermented cowpeas and pickled bamboo shoots add a sharp counterpoint, with roasted peanuts bringing crunch. Take your time between spoonfuls and let the mix of textures hold your attention. This is a meal to settle into before the rest of the day gets moving.
The restaurant opens daily at half past ten AM and closes at 6 PM, including Saturday and Sunday. Aim for the start of service for that late morning bowl, or keep it in mind for an afternoon pause. Leave the packed agenda for another day.
