Four of us checked out Everyday Noodles while they were still in their first week of open doors. We got there early on a Monday for dinner (before 6pm) and by the time we left the line was through the restaurant and out there door. Now for the reasons why:\n\n-Braised Beef Noodles Soup: Huge slabs of beef over hand-pulled noodles in a slightly spicy sauce. Noodles were super chewy and heavenly. Eat this.\n\n-Pork & Shrimp Soup dumplings: Certainly the thinnest-skinned soup dumplings in Pittsburgh. They just melt and have that unctuous taste you want. Eat this. A million times. Came with dispensers of black vinegar (NOM), soy sauce & shredded ginger.\n\n-Dan Dan Noodles: Noodles were chewy and delicious, presentation was not as \"Sichuan\" as it claimed (no peppercorn/numb/tingle flavor, sauce was very peanut buttery and not sesame paste). Skip this.\n\n-Tofu Skins & Wood Ears: Great to pass around the table. Make your friend who doesn't like tofu try this, as the skins are meaty & chewy. Wood ears were crispy and great as well. Lightly seasoned and had some loose veggies and goji berries sprinkled around. Try this. \n\n-Pan Fried Green Onion Pancake: Thick, bready and crispy on both sides from the griddle. Chewy and heavenly. Eat this.\n\nWe got to see some of the floor show as a chef spun dough and THWAPPED it on the counter, spinning and beating it into noodles. Decor is awesome, it feels bright and was definitely a fun dinner. Food came out incredibly fast (as it should) in the order it is prepared, (as it should) but that may be new for some Pgh diners. \n\nEveryday Noodles combines a menu of hawker-stall Chinese favorites in a fun little space and I'm already plotting the trip back. The name isn't false advertising, I'm thinking about the noodles everyday.
