Xi'an Famous Foods 西安名吃 | Chelsea

What began as a small street cart has become a local institution built on secret family recipes. The draw lies in the texture and mechanics: the handmade-to-order noodles are exceptionally long, requiring careful maneuvering to avoid chili oil splatters. Diners can choose pork belly soup noodles with a sharp, vinegar-y kick, or spicy tingly beef and tendon. The signature chili oil is brewed from over 30 ingredients, allowing guests to scale up the heat in a fast, self-serve setting. A side of cold cucumber salad helps manage the spice.
