"Xian offers a handful of sushi lunch specials where a couple of rolls cost less than $15, but the MVPs on the menu are the noodle dishes. We like the dan dan ones, which come swimming in a pool of chili oil and beef broth. They're topped with delicious braised meat, bok choy, and pickled vegetables. Get them for just under budget at lunch, or a few cents over at dinner." - nicolai mccrary
