I was contacted recently by a company called ShanShi, asking if I would sample their product. I never turn down the chance to try something new (it’s what I do) so ofr course I accepted with gratitude. Here’s a little background from them – ‘It is a dish from QinWeiGuan. The Garlic Noodles comes with a very strong garlic taste and is quite spicy. It is an easy and fast way to enjoy garlic without the burden of peeling garlic and getting it ready to eat. About QinWeiGuan QinWeiGuan is a restaurant in Taipei that is established for almost 20 years. Inspiring from different Chinese traditional local cuisine, in addition with years of research and feedback from customers, QinWeiGuan has developed its unique taste that can only be found in our restaurant.’
Sounds great – I’m a big fan of garlic and heat! Let’s check these noodle out.

A neat looking sauce sachet.
Scallion crisp.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added soft egg, sesame seed, scallion, chili oil, and barbecue pork. The noodle is excellent – nice chew is imparted. The flavor is a nice combination of spiciness and garlic – nice oiliness as well. Some nice to try! 5.0 out of 5.0 stars. No bar code.
