[purpleceline]

What do you think are the best hand-pulled noodles in Manhattan?

i like super taste and the lan zhou at 144 e bway the best

[foodwhisperer]

I will have to check 144 e bway out. thanks.

[Lau]

they have good dumplings as well, get the fried ones

The steamed dumplings at Super Taste are really good but I haven't read much talk about them

[Lau]

super taste and lan zhou (144 e bway) both have good dumplings, lan zhou has them steamed or fried

i like Fu Zhou Cuisine's the best (although ST and LZ aren't that far behind)

$8 for a bag of frozen ones to go at E.Broadway 144. Also, to regulars, they will pile on the beef in the soup....Thwap, thwap, thwap...

I checked out Super Taste. Almost went to Lan zhou, but remembered 144 E bway but the name on the sign was different from what I thought you posted. And they had a "B" health rating, so I went to Super Taste which I googled and found. It is only a couple of doors from Sheng Wang.
The hand pulled noodles were good I thought. The dish I got with them was very spicy. I think they called it Qi Mountain Beef Soup with hand pull noodles. As they say in Thai restaurants , it was "thai spicy". The noodle quality was great. I also put some of the noodles in my fish ball soup, it spiced it up a bit, but that was good also. It was the fish balls with meat in the center. The steamed dumplings were excellent.
I proceeded to Sheng Wang and got some stir fried knife cut noodles to go. That will be my breakfast.
By memory and i'm not certain, but I think Sheng Wangs hand pulled noodles were thicker than Super Taste. I think the quality is about equal to Super Taste but the Knife cut noodles stir fried at Shen Wang are most memorable.

The English signage at Lanzhou has a spelling error- it reads Lamzhou.

I still like Sheng Wang.

I second Sheng Wang, for the best hand pulled noodles and knife cut noodles "peel"( as per menu) noodles,

[Lau]

sheng wang's stir fried knife cut noodles are my favorite dish there

One needs to keep re-visiting them (all 6-7) to see how they are all doing.
