The Best Restaurants at Milpitas Square, a Chinese Mall in the Heart of Silicon Valley | Eater SF

"Inside Darda, calligraphy surrounds a painting of Mecca and round tables host loud family conversations in Chinese and Arabic; I was struck by an extensive halal menu that ranges from Taiwanese breakfast items like youtiao (Chinese doughnuts) to Chinese American standards such as plump walnut prawns. Some of the most popular dishes skew more traditionally Islamic Chinese—aromatic cumin lamb and thick sesame bread with green onion and a perfectly crisp crust—and almost every table reaches for Darda’s specialty of thick, chewy stir-fried noodles." - Anthony Shu
