四川担担麵 (已結業)

Food is good, restaurant owner is nice. Since my office is nearby, I visit Dandan a lot. Jerome the owner, once even recognized me and offered me free appetizer. I would say things went smooth with Jerome, but without him it's another story. This evening I visited Dandan as usually around 6 pm. Staffs were preparing food, Jerome's Chinese wife was busy in the back-kitchen. As usually I made the order and wait at the table until a huge ugly bug on the table crawling into my sight. Since this is a

I like chili and spicy foods. Szechuan is my favorite. It is very interesting to see a French will open a spicy Dan Dan noodle shop. And with Michelin as a backup, I decided to try this one.The shop is small, 28 seats only if I counted correctly.  I tried the set lunch with dan dan noodle and cucumber.  And I choose medium for the spicy level.Honestly speaking, as a diehard fan of dan dan noodle, my experience is mostly coming from Wing Lai Yuen or similar type of restaurant.  I like the soup wi

I love spicy hot food, especially Chinese however, I normally don't order dan dan mien because it's always so nutty and not hot enough for my taste. The other day I had to come to Sheung Wan for work so I search for some new place to try out and came across this. Weather was hot and yea it was lunch hours. As I arrive I saw a line of about 7-8 people so I thought oh no but fortunately I was just by myself and walked in without waiting.Ordered the Chengdu style one (stirred) of 'hot' which is 4 c

雖然唔係食得好辣，但我一向都鍾意食麻辣食物。之前見到雜誌介紹左呢間鋪頭，今日星期六特登過嚟試吓。店仔細細但係乾淨整齊，'老外'老闆喺門口好熱情咁樣招呼客人，介紹食物，落單。雜誌介紹老闆娘係四川人，做大廚。雖然細細間，但仲有兩個職員。因為今日係星期六所以冇午市套餐，我哋一行二人，點左一個成都style 四川擔擔麵 (即係有麻醬），牛肉麵，涼拌豆腐皮同埋涼拌雞，當然唔少得嘅，仲有嘢飲，解辣用。先講個四川擔擔麵，我要嘅係regular 辣，初初食嘅時候覺得普普通通，唔係好辣，但越食越辣...不過都接受嘅，下次可以要再辣D。麵條唔係我哋平時系出邊食到嘅擔擔面麵條，醬汁味道唔錯，仲有我最鍾意嘅花生。如果可以再 '麻' 啲就會跟加好！唯一嘅意見係份量太大食淨一半。蝦子餅叫咗個中辣嘅牛肉麵，味道都唔錯，佢就話唔夠辣。牛肉好林，廚師仲加左筍，我就覺得味道唔錯。豆腐皮，雜誌就推介呢個，個人覺得一般，下次會試吓木耳。至於個鷄，明明係under 涼拌，但原來係炒嘅⋯⋯味道都唔錯，份量亦都值回票價！總括嚟講，食物絕對有水準，服務亦都唔錯。市面上嘅小店越來越少，剩返嘅都係連鎖食肆，老闆要多多加油！I will

I used to go this restaurant a lot, because even through the taste is not Authentic ( I was born and grew up in Chengdu, Sichuan) but still acceptable, and they use good chili pepper. BUT NOT ANYMORE!Well, everything changed yesterday when my friend and I were there, I ordered the same noodle I normally order and chooses the same spicy level I always choose ( hot).Both of us realised they changed their chilli sauce immediately after we tasted the noodle. The spicy level was completely out of co

法國人在上環開的四川麵館 😆😆很新鮮，在未吃前有點猶豫是否正宗食物來到馬上改觀，麻而不太辣，沒地道的過鹹感覺，用料足好吃👍🏻👍🏻但店員太少，顯得"他"很忙，下單收錢是他，送菜是他，店員是他，廚房也顯得不夠人用⋯⋯⋯四川擔擔麵 $60 沒地道的鹹，但香港人吃會覺得都係鹹，吃出地道味覺 紅燒牛肉麵 $70 麻而不太辣，用料足，但牛肉丁點粒，吃麵和湯底為主 四川涼伴雞 $125味道是很好的但我非常確定這裡沒有一隻雞，因我們只找到一隻雞翼

餐餐在街上吃，真不知吃甚麼好。行過新紀元廣場，一陣香味傳來，原來是這間四川麪館，不如入內試試。食物分5種辣度，由不辣、小辣、中辣，辛辣、四川辛辣，辣度由客人自選。選了一客紅燒牛肉麪，因為未曾嘗試這裏的辣，辣度只敢要小辣。一上枱，顏色紅得充滿整個碗，好似辣得會噴火似的，有點可怕。可是吃起來，又真的不是太辣，只感到配料如花椒八角的香，味道都幾濃郁。這碗牛肉麪的牛肉煮得很淋、很入味，麪身又很爽口，口感不錯。這個菜肉餃子，菜與肉的份量剛剛好，誰都搶不了誰的味，將菜與肉剁得很碎後，包在餃子裏，吃時加一些醋，而且這個醋裏加入了蒜片，份外惹味。只可惜餃子的皮太厚，且硬了一點，破壞了咬口，如果能將皮做得薄一些，效果一定更理想，口感一定更佳。最後要了一客孜然雞翼，這個加了孜然粉的炸雞翼，用了很多四川的配料來炸，味道很濃，有點像土匪雞翼，但加入孜然粉後，味道更香。

友人於上環工作，星期六下午到這兒試試它四川辣的威力。它應該是外國人開的，店員全是外國人。平日星期一至五會有午市套餐，今天星期六只有a la carte 提供。我們先於order counter點食物，然後才安排入座。我們點了重興擔擔麵（撈麵）和Classic Dan Dan noodles (in soup) 有5種程度辣度供選擇，最辣是sichuan hot 四川辣，問一問店員是否非常辣，它用言語跟表情表達真的非常辣！最後我們相信他，選了第四級的Hot。因麵是沒有配料的，所以加點了孜然雞翼。 有濃烈的麻醬香氣，吃一口，非常辣！太辣！只嘗到一點兒麻醬味道，有點擔心怎樣吃下去。我是非常喜歡吃辣而且非常欣賞四川當地美食，但這個麵只有好辣，我什麼都吃不出。 這碗是Classic Dan Dan noodles (in soup) ，麵條出色，煙煙unun，但也太辣了。可能我們所選的Hot是錯誤的，不但令舌頭辛苦而且胃部也不好受。 孜然雞翼6隻 - 因為兩碗麵實在太辣，已吃不到任何味道，但雞翼炸得太乾。

早就听说这家担担面很有名，所以这天下班就和朋友一起来试试看。辣椒指数从0到4，其实我觉得点2个应该就好，可是我去上个洗手间回来朋友已经点了三个辣椒指数的担担面。我们还点了口水鸡和拍黄瓜。面一端上来，辣酱很香也很诱人，于是把辣酱和面拌均匀，一口下去，感觉人就已经要冒烟了，赶紧叫了水。面很筋道，粗粗的，很香。辣酱闻起来特别香，但是吃起来层次就比较单一，可能因为实在是太辣盖过了其他味道，几乎吃不出麻酱的味道。后来基本上是一口面，三口饮料，才勉强吃完大半碗面。口水鸡味道一般，而且感觉都是边角料没有什么肉。黄瓜倒是很爽口，是吃掉最多的菜了。吃完之后我和朋友都吃了奶制品解辣，可是我的胃还是烧了很久很不舒服 T_T以后如果在来，我觉得一个辣椒指数应该就够了

天氣冷冷的，午餐一於走到上環的四川担坦麵，吃碗熱辣辣的麵，暖暖身體！店內的座位不多，只能容納大概三十人，過了十二時半到達，也等了約十五分鐘才有位子。 首先在門口的收銀處點餐，單點一碗麵食大概$55-$70，午餐包一小碟涼菜+餐飲，比單點貴$10-$15。點餐後到內店自行搵位，若滿座店員也會幫忙安排。食物煮好後，店員會端出來送到面前。 店員都是外籍人士，而期間亦有不少外國人光顧，看來這中國食物頗受外國人歡迎。點了紅燒牛肉麵+涼拌木耳+自製檸檬紅茶：涼拌木耳 - 附有數片酸瓜、辣椒，醋味很香，酸酸辣辣的，美味開胃。而木耳是一朵朵，圓圓小小的，而非一大塊的，十分爽口。 紅燒牛肉麵端上來是熱辣辣的，湯底加有辣油，略為油膩。由於熱騰騰的關係，一開始吃的時候頗辣，還帶點麻。牛肉份量多，是煮得淋淋的，但牛肉味欠奉，而且脂肪頗多，數件咬下去全是肥膏。麵條煮得恰到好處，十分彈牙。麵上帶點芫茜，帶出香味。當麵冷了的時候，亦可能是習慣了辣度，吃著吃著就不覺得辣了。

I don't know much about Sichuan food. I can't make any authoritative (or even assertive) opinion about Sichuan food.But I do know this. Sichuan food can and should be mouth watering, 5 alarm fire, "oh god it burns", level of spicy. There should be the presence of the Sichuan peppercorns (花椒) which produce that pleasant "ma la" affect, simultaneously numbing your tongue while lashing it with heat. And pain. And pleasure in that pain.I do know that Dan Dan Soul food is not a hole in the wall outfi

呢間舖印象最深就係個招牌，似卡通片電影海報，但佢個門口就唔算明顯，要上樓梯先見到！！舖面大概有二十幾個座位，算係寬敞舒適，但望多兩眼，一間中國麵食點解全部都係外國人員工咁特別，望望牆上既介紹，原來呢間舖係由一位四川姑娘同外藉丈夫開的，雖然員工都係外國人，英文唔好點餐都唔怕，餐牌有中英文，正常時段價錢算中上價位，但我係下午茶去，有幾個指定套餐可選都係$39, 我第一次黎梗係試下招牌擔擔麵啦同點左杯茉莉花茶，套餐可加大只需$4！亦可選辣度！落完單等左八分鐘左右，餐點到了，份量果然十足，賣相都唔係差，加左些小自家製既辣椒再拌勻，真心好食，麵既較硬適中，淡淡麻醬帶點微辣，又配搭非常，覺得油膩？？茉莉花出場了，喝一口，油膩解了，茶應該係店主自己沖調的，唔同飲茶包隻味。係中上環番工既我絕對會回頭再幫襯

成日都好似无乜胃口咁，冧晚餐食乜嘢好，冧左我成晏啦。无胃口，咁就食辣野系啦，辣起嚟仲会无胃口的话，咁就证明自己可能系病左要稳医生既啦！！！讲起食辣既，我中意川菜麻辣，因为距真系麻得嚟又好鬼死过瘾，胃口都会跟住大增！呢間四川擔擔面，嚟食過好幾次啦，好中意距呢度既麻辣，麻到你永遠記住距。呢度老闆娘系正宗四川人，好食原因應該就系呢個夠正宗距個店面唔系大，但系環境卻好舒適，燈光好柔和，大大既餐牌扒系個牆度，夠曬清楚明了。食過幾次，都系覺得距個招牌四川擔擔面最正，呢次就點距，加個涼拌海帶絲。四川擔擔面，店員話呢個主要系煮既過程要注意一點：開水後要加翻D涼開水，再落麵條之類的，咁做系會令到D麵夠彈牙。怪唔得我平時自己煮唔出啦，原來系咁。距D豬骨湯底好濃，相信系足料熬出嚟既。涼拌海帶絲，都麻得好正，食到我D汗系咁飆出嚟，鼻水系咁流！！！ 拿拿聲飲返杯熱檸茶解下辣先，話說解辣要飲熱既，冷既系解唔到辣的。食完，方知原來自己唔系無胃口，怕且就系想食辣既嘢！！ 唔使去探醫生

中午在office附近按摩前吃個快捷的午餐，想到這家一直想去試的四川面館，12點前到還沒有什麽人。這家小店一進門口便是點菜和付錢的地方，下單的服務生是個高高的外國人，看了看貼在店鋪裏的雜誌訪問才知道店主是一對夫婦，女生是正中四川人，男生是法國人，在上海相識並結婚，現在把這種四川飲食文化帶到香港來。我點的是最經典的四川擔擔面。店裏不大，我選了個窗邊的一排高桌子坐下。看著中午人來人往的新紀元廣場別有一番滋味。大概5分鐘面就上來了。我平時吃的擔擔面都是有比較濃花生味道的湯底，而這家店的湯底很清，像是豬骨湯的味道。我選了Mini辣所以飄在上面的紅色不算太多哈哈。喝一口湯覺得辣油很香，有點麻但是辣度剛剛好，面屬於偏細條狀的，蠻彈牙。我自己很喜歡吃面食，所以不吃日式拉面的日子吃四川擔擔面也是很好的選擇！這家餐廳價錢適中，味道不錯，可以去試試看！

My friend took me to Dan Dan for lunch, and my first impression was mixed. The Decor and the uniforms are top notch for this kind of small restaurant in Hong Kong. There are lots of little touches - like the newspaper articles framed on the walls, and especially the karate-style uniforms - which mark Dan Dan out as a labour of love (it is run by a husband and wife team). On the the other hand, they are clearly understaffed. While a wait time of 15 mins is pretty standard in Central, having to wa
