"Our Favorite Dishes: House Beef Noodles, Zhiang Jian Noodles Mian is a modern noodle place from the chef behind Chengdu Taste, and that fact alone gets our attention. But more importantly: Mian lives up to expectations. The Chongqing-style noodles they serve are fantastic and chewy, with a spiciness that creeps up on you. And we love the mung bean drink they pour for you when you arrive, because the sweetness helps to cool the spice down when you need it. Get a plate of dumplings to start - the pork ones are juicy and peppery - and the zhiang jian noodles with a crispy egg, minced pork, and chickpea-like Chongqing peas are a must-order." - jess basser sanders, amy clark, brant cox, brett keating
