Once I tried this spot it made me wonder why I didn't trust my nose before.
A main stay for the Chinese community, and others, this is a popular choice for all ages.
Situated next to the food hall of Leicester market, seating is under a gazebo and is truly street food.
Serving bowls of noodles, crispy chicken and spring rolls, few trying this would refute this is not authentic.
The noodles are served initially without soup, mix, eat half, then return for the soup.
Reasonably priced and great quality and tasty, this is a top spot to try.
Staff really friendly and service quick.- Meal type

10/10 doesn’t cut it - this place exceeds all expectations! The food here is incredible, there was an explosion of flavour in every bite that leaves you wanting more. I went for the Chef Special and also got the fried chicken thigh. While eating, I was already planning on when I could come back! The portion size is absolutely spot on for the price and you walk away with so much satisfaction. The owner is also very humble and invested in the customer experience. You can tell he is passionate about what he is serving and he does so to a very high standard. Highly recommend a visit!- Meal type

If you eat here you will be transported to China! What an absolute gem of a place, this is real authentic Chinese street food! Absolutely delicious! I had the chef special and I especially enjoyed the crispy pork. I can't wait to try everything else on the menu!

Authentic street food feel and taste, level of spiciness can be adjusted to your own taste. Small memu but you don't really need that many choices. Must try!

A one-of-a-kind gem. Either type of rice noodle is delicious, but if you're trying it for the first time, recommend the classic one. Small portions are just £8.50. And the fried chicken thighs is £3.50 and there is no denying its flavour.

I lived in Guilin for 6 years, and Guilin Noodles are Part of my life. However, when I moved to the UK, I lost the taste of Guilin Noodles and part of my memory. It’s so lucky that I finally found this place to have 100% authentic Guilin noodles again. The only thing I am not satisfied with is the restaurant in Leicester, and I am in London. 曾经的户籍广西人点评，正宗！好吃！ 快开来伦敦。

Best noodles in Leicester! Visited here multiple times. Highly recommend their signature noodles as well as the spicy and sour noodles. Braised beef is very tender and fragrant - it melts in your mouth! The boss is very friendly and remembers his customers. A must come if you are in Leicester!

Excellent fresh food. Great price (£8.50 regular dish, £10 large). Cash only. Sometimes we have to wait for a table but it's absolutely worth it. Seats are outdoors under a gazebo so not sure how it's going to work in winter. Great authentic experience.

If you are a big fan of rice noodles/pho/noodles, you will love this place. The boss perfectly restored this authentic Chinese food. By the way, there are many delicious snacks you can add, such as fried spiced chicken wings, soy milk with dough bar, spiced eggs, etc. Sometimes there are limited snacks, such as the Xiaolongbao in the picture.
In the past two years, my wife and I have been here almost every week and have spent easily over £1500. The food here has never once let us down. I can honestly say the consistency of this little stall is the best you’ll ever find in the UK. My favourite is the chef’s special!

Proper street geniune street food for Chinese noodle soup. Had a limited list of about 10 dishes, so chose a hearty beef brisket noodle soup for £8.
Came out 10 minutes later and had a few condiments to add - black vinegar and homemade chilli sauce. Just a splodge of each, but the chilli was rather hot! (So beware if you can't handle spiciness that well!) The noodles were softer than I would have liked, but the broth and beef was really tasty. I shall highly recommend this especially when it's so cold this winter. The outdoor seating was plentiful and it was undercover as well. Value for money as other eateries of similar nature were at least £10.
Thanks to the chef/owner for being nice and friendly.- Service

Best noodles place in Leicester! The owner is really humble and treats every bowl of noodles seriously. It gets really busy in lunch hour so be prepared to wait for quite some time but I can guarantee you it worths.

Noodles are great and authentic. Outdoor seating is great on warmer days. Can get really busy as they do get a lot of takeaway/delivery. £8.50-£10 per bowl. Nice street food experience. Self service.
