Knife-peeled noodles, too.
I missed my chance to try them in Beijing, and now again at this Fujianese noodle shop, where I spotted them on an auxiliary menu only as I was leaving. My hand-pulled noodles ($5, including fresh and pickled greens and a complimentary off-menu egg) featured fish balls that might be made from eel, my server ventured; I'm more sure that their recent home was in the freezer. (Good, fresh fish balls are a lot of work; entire businesses have been built on them.) In aggregate, the thin noodles were such a load that at first approach, my chopsticks bent perilously. I got your $5 worth; so will you.
