Tasty Hand-Pulled Noodles Review: Tasty Hand Pulled Noodles

Warm weather has left New York, and that means it's soup season. It's also hand-pulled noodle season. While some people can appreciate a warm bowl of soup and sweating it out during the hotter months, I find greater comfort in soupy meals when it's colder outside. Last week I headed down to Tasty Hand-pulled Noodles for a nice bowl of noodles. This place has been covered before at Eating in Translation and at Robyn's blog. Both of them went soon after the noodle shop opened, and neither really talked about the fact that Tasty Hand-Pulled Noodles has great dumplings. Really, is it any surprise that a hand pulled noodle place can make great dumplings? It seems like they ALL do 'em, and they all do them really well.

El Quinto Pino Review: Breakfast items from El Quinto Pino

I feel like when it comes to food blog writing, there's only a few major camps you can fall into. You could be the straight forward info supplier. Very useful, and highly visible when you're already successful. Then there are the comedic writers, who're able to conjure a laugh by slinging words. That's probably the toughest. Or you could be a memoir-ish type of writer, where every recipe reminds you of cooking with mom or grandma, and aromas invoke something out of Lifetime Original Television. Not really capable of any one of those three methods, I'll just say that arranging for new living quarters with just two weeks is kinda tough...
