The city output of this trio of noodle shops is well worth the wait.
If you’re looking to dip your chopsticks into the hand-pulled noodle boom in Perth, start here in the heart of Northbridge. These noodles trace their origins to the city of Lanzhou in northwest China, and come in a variety of thicknesses, known for being served in a distinctive clear broth (as opposed to its soy-sauce-based cousins). At Qin’s you’ll get to try it all.
Start with the traditional signature beef noodle soup, a generous tangle of noodles served with a dash of chilli oil, coriander, spring onion and slices of beef. As the thermostat climbs, reach for the noodles with soybean paste, pork mince and batons of carrot and cucumber – a fresh summer makeover. Repeat visits are recommended, if not to try all the different noodle styles, then the side dishes, of which the shredded potato is a must have; so thinly cut you’ll think it’s another bowl of noodles. Finish with a Tsingtao or a can of soybean milk.
