For those of you who love to eat noodles (not those instant ones), you ought to watch this video clip vide:

I understand some Chinese restaurants in London Soho Chinatown do serve some of the noodles shown in the above video clip.

The place is called Lan Zhou Handmade Noodles and there, taped on the walls, like many places in Chinatown, were two menus. One English and one Chinese. The Chinese menu is always larger, and it was no different in this case. Sadly, neither of us could decipher a single character on the bright orange menu. Next to that menu was the English version, a menu less than half the size of the former, boring black ink printed on white paper.

and my "Beef Noodle Soup." The noodles for all dishes are hand-pulled, quite literally the minute after your order is placed. We sat along the wall seats and watched as the man transformed balls of dough into thin strands in a matter of minutes. He adds only a few sprays of water here and there, and an occasional slick of oil to prevent the dough from sticking. The most wonderful part is that, unlike soba or pasta, the making of "hand cut" noodles is indeed done with the hand alone. No knifes, or yardsticks for precision cutting, no forks. Nothing but the hand - I found that most impressive.
