They are famous for their hand made noodles of course, and a variety of dishes of noodles of different shapes and sizes with comforting Northern Chinese flavours. Compared to the other popular joint in the city for Chinese hand made noodles, Shaolin Noodle House, I rather enjoyed Legendary&#8217;s small menu which focuses a little better on just noodles. I was glad that they were still delivering the same great tastes with what I had years ago.<\/p>\n<p>We started with a small plate of Baby Pea Shoot Stir Fry with Garlic ($5.50). Although it was pretty tasty, I would prefer they use mature pea shoot instead of the little baby ones.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5964\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5964\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image20.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-5964 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image20.jpeg\" alt=\"Fried Baby Pea Shoots with Garlic\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image20.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image20-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image20-174x131.jpeg 174w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image20-70x53.jpeg 70w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5964\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fried Baby Pea Shoots with Garlic<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Nothing beats having a bowl of steaming warm Hot and Sour Noodle Soup ($9.50) in such a chilly rainy evening. The soup is filled with tons of goodies: mushroom, bamboo shoot, tofu, and drizzled egg drops. The soup would be perfect for me if it was a little spicier, but I still really enjoyed it. The hand pulled thick noodles have a great al dente texture, which is exactly the way how I like  it.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5962\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5962\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image18.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-5962 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image18.jpeg\" alt=\"Hot &amp; Sour Soup, Drizzled Egg , Mushrooms, Bamboo Shoots\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image18.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image18-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image18-174x131.jpeg 174w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image18-70x53.jpeg 70w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5962\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hot &amp; Sour Soup, Drizzled Egg , Mushrooms, Bamboo Shoots<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Tibetan Lamb Shank with Stir Fried Thin Noodle ($13.00) was a tasty dish as well, but I found the lamb and the noodles were a little disjointed.

Basically this is a popular North American Chinese dish and it was definitely not invented in China. Don&#8217;t get me wrong though, I have been loving this dish since I was a teenager working as a waiter at a Chinese restaurant in suburb California. However the version here has a darker color. <\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5963\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5963\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image19.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-5963 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image19.jpeg\" alt=\"Lemon Chicken\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image19.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image19-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image19-174x131.jpeg 174w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image19-70x53.jpeg 70w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5963\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lemon Chicken<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5959\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5959\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image15.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-5959 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image15.jpeg\" alt=\"Legendary Noodle House\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image15.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image15-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image15-174x131.jpeg 174w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image15-70x53.jpeg 70w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5959\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Legendary Noodle House<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5960\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5960\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image16.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-5960 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image16.jpeg\" alt=\"Legendary Noodle House\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image16.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image16-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image16-174x131.jpeg 174w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image16-70x53.jpeg 70w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5960\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Legendary Noodle House<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5965\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5965\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image21.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-5965 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image21.jpeg\" alt=\"Legendary Noodle House\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image21.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image21-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image21-174x131.jpeg 174w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image21-70x53.jpeg 70w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5965\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Legendary Noodle House<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5966\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5966\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image22.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-5966 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image22.jpeg\" alt=\"Legendary Noodle House\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image22.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image22-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image22-174x131.jpeg 174w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/image22-70x53.jpeg 70w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5966\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Legendary Noodle House<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Overall we really enjoyed our dinner here at Legendary.
