Description

An ID staple, tiny bare-bones Szechuan Noodle Bowl specializes in ... wait for it ... bowls of spicy noodle soup. There's a subtle anise-tinged sweetness to the broth of the beef noodle soup, and it softens you up so the chile kick hurts all the more deliciously; the bowl is topped with beef stewed so long it can barely remember to hold its shape. Forget the cold sesame noodles, and stick to the soups and SNB's two cult dishes: the dumplings and the fried green-onion pancake.
