Han Noodle Bar

Every once in a while I think about how fun it would be to go to different restaurants and write reviews of their food. I love food, there's no getting around that. Lately I have been craving Chinese food, and per the suggestion of my buddy Stephen, I went to Han Noodle Bar off of Monroe and Oxford. When you walk into this place, you will be seated by the waitress at any one of the tables in its minimalistic style interior. As I looked over the menu that was handed me, I realized that I was familiar with some of the listings, and there was also plenty I was not as familiar with. My first experience there was with my friend Meg, where we both got something we were familiar with. They have excellent crab rangoon, egg drop soup, and entrees such as LoMein and General Tao's Chicken. On my second visit, I went with Stephen. As promised to the owner that when I came back I would try something different from the menu I went with a roast pork broth noodle bowl. This consisted of broth, rice noodles, bok choy, topped with pieces of roast pork. Stephen got the same thing only with mushrooms instead of pork, and ordered us some jasmine tea and egg rolls. When you order tea they serve it in a large tea pot, so that you can enjoy tea throughout the meal. I recommend going to Han and trying anything from the menu, it was well worth it and the cost is very reasonable. Meg and I ate for about $25: crab rangoon, egg drop soup, LoMein, and General Tao's. Stephen and I at for about $20 which included: Crab rangoon, egg rolls, jasmine tea, and two broth bowls. Not too shabby. Below are some images I took of the food that we ate.


Chopsticks & tea are essential to enjoying a good meal.


Egg Rolls that were amazing and fresh!
