The art of noodle pulling at Niu Yi Zui Lamen in Chinatown

HOUSTONNui Yi Zui Lamen came to Houston 5 years ago with very traditional food from China’s northwest region.

Their most popular dishes include hand-pulled noodles, an art that dates back to over 100 years.

Their very experienced chef can pull the noodles into 8 different sizes with his hands.

Lamen’s meaning in Chinese: LA is the motion of pulling, and MEN means noodle.

Watch as we give noodle-pulling by hand a try!
