"Situated in a strip mall in Bellevue’s Crossroads neighborhood (and now with a second location in Seattle’s CID), Ten Seconds Yunnan Rice Noodle serves up an array of its signature dish, Crossing the Bridge Noodles, available with a variety of broth flavors. Diners put accompanying bowls of quail egg, fish, or meat (the beef brisket is a favorite), vegetables, tofu, and herbs and condiments into the broth, followed by the rice noodles — which cook for 10 seconds before the noodle soup is ready to eat. Also recommended: the dry rice noodles with beef and/or beef tripe, a dish that is hearty and rich with flavor." - Jay Friedman
