Dinner date with Danielle to Maggie Fu tonight on Smithdown Road. It's a new Asian restaurant that's opened next to Tribeca opposite to Tiger Rock and The Tavern. They do Japanese style ramen and udon noodles with Chinese char siu, roast duck, wontons and fish balls. They do rice dishes too.
I got char siu noodles with extra wontons in a meaty broth - I ordered udon noodles but got ramen so had to send it back and got it re done.
Ramen noodles are instant thin noodles. Udon noodles are thick white round rice noodles - they're my favourite noodles and would always choose and recommend them if you ever get noodles!
Could have done with more veg like - you get 1 pak choi leaf! You get loads of meat but hardly and noodles. I was still hungry after it! Wish I got fish balls with it too.
Danielle got udon noodles in a curry broth with 3 meats - roast chicken, roast duck and char siu with a boiled egg. Didn't like that her egg was hard boiled, thought it would be a runny egg - I would've sent that back but she was fine with it though luckily.
Chicken gyoza
The food was nice and it's reasonably priced. Mine come to £9.20 - it was an extra £1 for the wontons. Just a shame you don't get a lot and I was still hungry after it! Portions could do with being a big bigger. If you like Asian noodles should give it a try.
