Burwood's Chinese food strip runs deep, and this narrow room has held its own since 2017 by staying loyal to one place: Shaanxi province, and the noodle-heavy cooking of its capital in China's north-west. The signature is biang biang noodles, made the way they are back home, with small balls of dough pulled, stretched and slapped against the bench to order until they fold over each other like wide ribbons, then dressed and finished with a splash of searingly hot oil poured over chilli and aromatics at the last second. The kitchen makes its noodles daily, including a less common pale-green version worked through with spinach, and the bowls arrive large enough to share but rarely surrendered. Beyond the noodles, the roujiamo, often called China's oldest hamburger, cumin-spiced meat packed into a crisp flatbread, is the thing to add, alongside the cumin and chilli notes that define this region's table. The fit-out is plain and the turnover brisk; this is specialist cooking rather than a broad Chinese menu, and better for it. In a suburb spoiled for choice, it endures because it does the hand-pulled, hand-smacked northern noodle properly, to order, every time.
