Kokoro Tokyo Mazesoba – Unique Japanese Dry Noodle Bowls near Lougheed, Coquitlam

New restaurants continued to open up in the Burquitlam area, including one I was really excited about. Kokoro Tokyo Mazesoba, an international chain originated from Japan. You may have been to their other location downtown on Seymour Street. I did, and every time I walked away with a belly full of carbs and I didn't regret it one bit. Opening their second location in Burquitlam means it's much closer to home and more accessible to me. Even though dine-in service was not available, I had to order take-out from them to support.

Liuyishou Hotpot – A la carte menu with a huge sauce bar

Does the snowy weather just make you want to cuddle up and sit around the fireplace all day? Us Chinese have another way to fight the cold weather -- hotpot. Recently, I was invited to check out one of the a la carte hotpot places called Liuyishou Hotpot. It's a worldwide chain, with a few locations in the Lower Mainland in Vancouver, Richmond and Burnaby.

Legendary Noodle House

With two locations in the city, the Legendary Noodle House serves up big dishes of tasty Northern Chinese style hand-made noodles. We visited the Denman store; and as with all shops on Denman, it was a little crowded. The decorations are fitting of the place, maybe they are trying a little too hard on the “Chineseness” of it, but I could see its appeal to the general public. The kitchen is a semi-open style, which is great because you get to see the chef prepare your noodles made-to-order. It’s quite an art form; it takes a lot of pulling, slamming, and kneading to produce a fine firmness (think al dente pasta but better). Overall it reminded me of the street-side noodle joints in Tianjin.
