小旋风 (xiao xuan feng) is a restaurant that sells mainly 拉面 (la mian) and dim sum during different timings of the day. It showcases a 60's chinese interior design and recreates the atmosphere using various retro furnishings like metal buckets, refrigerator and closets. Overall, we had a pleasant experience with the food and with the service, by an apparent full force of china chinese.
担担拉面 (dan dan la mian), in fact minced pork and chilli oil, was nice except you might find the oil a bit too excessive.
But with a pot of 普尔 (pu er) tea like this you should be able to get rid of the oil in the throat, plus, it's only $1!
The curry in Curry Chicken La Mian tasted like indonesian style curry but with a weird twist which we didn't enjoy. It's not yucky, but we think it's not for everybody. At least overall, it's a decent bowl of 拉面 (la mian).
Many compliments for the Seafood La Mian with wholesome fresh ingredients.
The 小笼包 (xiao long bao) here is not small at all. I would prefer them to be in small bite sizes although it doesn't bother most people like L. This one has a hole in the center for you to suck the savoury soup within. I believe the usual ones doesn't have these holes, and I usually just bite the nipple off to make the hole myself. In fact the soup is so nice we ordered this twice.
We also have Red Bean Soup...
and Shrimp Dumplings...
and supposedly their signature dish Durian Puffs.
