"Tucked inside the food court at 99 Ranch Market on Balboa Avenue, this first-of-its-kind-in-San-Diego outpost focuses on noodles made from potato powder for a chewier texture, with add-ons like mushrooms, seaweed strips, vegetables, beef, and shrimp; don’t miss the specialty skewers—think tofu skin roll with coriander, fish tofu, and deep-fried lobster balls—turned out from a tiny kitchen behind the counter, plus snacks such as crispy chicken bones, spicy beef tripe, and deep-fried pork belly showered with special chili powder." - Helen I.
