Free Noodles @ Legendary Noodle

Legendary Noodle on Denman is celebrating their 3rd anniversary and offering free noodles on Sunday May 2nd.



A quick report on Legendary Noodles.
http://www.legendarynoodle.ca/
They have 2 location. One on Denman street and the other on Main Street. Their richmond location is closed.
Brock Li and legendary noodles was one of the featured guest on Bob Blumer's Glutton for Punishment episode about 'Xiao Long Bao(Shanghai Steamned Soup Dumpling") on the food network.
The location used to be an Italian Coffee shop. Walking into the restaurant you notice lots of chinese trinklet and props. I think it works but still a little tacky.
Famous for their hand made noodles which are chewy and starchy. Good bite.
Had the lamb noodle soup, found the lamb to be tender but the broth lacking of flavor.
The steamed juicy pork dumplings were saltier than most I had. Nothing in this neigbourhood to compare it too. But not as good as Lin's on Broadway.
The 'Chao Shou' lemon chicken dumpling in a spicy peanut sauce was interesting to me. Tasted a lot like the description. It was a chicken jiao zi(northern chinese dumpling) with lemon juice in the filling. Served in a bowl with a Tan Tan Mien like broth, a spicy peanut broth. The combination of lemon juice, chicken dumpling and peanut sauce worked for me. And i did like this the best.
The new japanese server was very accomodating and friendly.

Whilst it is unlikely I would make a special trip back here due to better and cheaper options elsewhere. For those in this neigbourhood, it is worth considering.
