Yau Yuen Siu Tsui

Biang Biang noodles are awesome! Similar in flavor to szechuan spices, the flavor is a delightful and spicy. English menu available and very low prices.
This place will not disappoint.

Hands down, this spices and seasoning used in these noodles are the most unique I’ve ever had in Hong Kong. Being Shaanxi cuisine, the flavors are very different than the local, Cantonese ones.
I’ve had a variety of their signature biang biang noodles, such as spare ribs, beef and leek dumplings, and lamb dumplings. I would definitely go with one of the dumplings. Both were very flavorful and juicy on the inside. Although the thick, flat noodles are hard to share because it’s one long piece, I love the texture of them. I think they’re the perfect amount of chewy and compliment the spices perfectly.
Aside from the signature biang biang noodles, I’ve had their cold noodles with sesame sauce. This is also a favorite of mine at Yau Yuen Siu Tsui. The noodles are thinner, but still have an amazing texture to them. They’re not soft and soggy, very chewy. The sauce also hits just the right amount of spice.
Their appetizers are also very unique. We’ve had their grass jelly with peanut sauce and shredded lotus roots. The grass jelly had a wasabi element to it where the spice goes up your nose so I wasn’t that big of a fan. The shredded lotus roots were fantastic though! They were cooked perfectly so that there’s still a crunchy to them but not too hard.
Although small, this place still get really crowded and so the service can be kind of slow but I enjoy it because that means you don’t have to rush through the meal. The only thing that might give Yau Yuen Siu Tsui a ding on points is their location. It’s not particularly convenient to get to.

I was taken here on recommendation of a friend and definitely a great new discovery. They serve Shaanxi food, so it wasn’t something I would commonly find in Hong Kong.
They have a wide variety of appetizers and entrees. For appetizer, we had a noodle with chicken and cucumbers. Then for the entrée, I was recommended to get the biang biang noodles, which are thicker and wider noodles compared to many other types of Chinese noodles. I got it with dumplings. The dumplings and noodles don’t come in a soup, but it does have some spicy chili to go with it that tastes really good. I like the unique flavor and noodle texture.
They have very nice decorations in there as well. From what I hear, they were previously at a smaller spot and relocated here. Glad they moved to this bigger spot so more people could dine in.
Highly recommend this place!
