Can we all take a moment to admire how beautiful this noodle pull is…

Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, let us say how impressed we were with Lan City Hand-Pulled Noodles of Ypsilanti! If you fancy yourself a noodle connoisseur, make sure you put this low-key spot on your bucket list.

Choose from a variety of  soups featuring your choice of hand-pulled or knife-peeled noodles, both made in-house. We ordered one of each to get an authentic feel for this unsuspecting strip mall restaurant. The thinner, hand-pulled noodles were our favorite. They’re what you would be more accustomed to if you like ramen. The knife-peeled noodles were thicker and chewier, a more unconventional bite than what we’re used to — that’s not a bad thing. Find your favorite at this Ypsi essential.
