"You absolutely must order the signature biang biang noodles when dining at XiAn Biang Biang Noodle in San Gabriel, a spot tucked on the ground floor of an aging strip mall with surprisingly few restaurants. The ropey strands deliver a wonderfully toothsome bite that may very well be the platonic ideal of this regional Chinese specialty in Los Angeles. Also toothsome and fabulous are the fried been jelly found under the “local specialty” portion of the menu and the “big plate” preparation made with chicken or lamb. The stir-fried pork intestines, a last-minute addition to a noodle-focused lunch, turned out to be the dish I can’t stop thinking about. Wok-fried with enough dried chiles and Sichuan peppercorns to set my mouth afire, the intestines delivered a pleasantly chewy texture and satisfying burn I was hoping for. — Cathy Chaplin, senior editor" - Eater Staff
