Niu-Gu is an experiment of sorts. In the few months it has been open, it has gone from a simple noodle parlor, with a limited menu of Chinese soups and starches, to a full service restaurant serving everything from the formal farm-to-cup Chinese tea service to the best, freshest friggin’ fish we’ve ever had in Chinatown:
(Silky, rich, true Pacific black cod)
How well they succeed is going to tell us a lot about just how sophisticated people want their Asian food to be.
ELV note: Sometimes a few pictures are worth a thousand words…

For those of you who don’t Wake Up With the Wagners (or the pigs and chickens for that matter), yesterday’s restaurant segment on KSNV (NBC) Channel 3’s morning show was “Ramen is All the Rage” — featuring the superior soups from Shoku Ramen-Ya, as well as giving a shout out to Monta, Ramen Tatsu, and Ramen Sora.
Here is the (sometimes slightly out of focus) video for your delectation:
