DanDan, Aldgate East

Sichuan cooking at Goodman's Fields with the noodles pulled by hand rather than bought in.1

Why go

The record is thin. The landlord's tenant page and the operator's own site agree that this is a Sichuan kitchen at 9 Stable Walk making its noodles fresh, four minutes from Aldgate East. Beyond that, nothing has been published.12

Order this / avoid

  • Order: the hand-pulled noodles, which is what the operator puts forward.2

What locals & experts say

  • Nobody,. Restaurants of the same name in other cities are separately reviewed and none of that belongs here.

Good to know

  • Where: 9 Stable Walk E1 8ZF, inside Goodman's Fields. Aldgate East is four minutes.1
  • What is not established: the menu, the prices and anything anybody has said about the cooking.

Verdict

listed — A Sichuan kitchen in the Goodman's Fields development at Aldgate East, four minutes from the station, whose stated point of difference is noodles pulled by hand rather than bought in. The landlord and the operator agree on that much and nobody else has written a word. It is the bottom rung on an empty record: no critic, no menu read, no price. Worth revisiting, because a hand-pulled noodle kitchen is either a good reason to walk to Stable Walk or it is not, and right now nothing says which.

Order

  • The hand-pulled noodles, which are the operation's stated point of difference
  • Beef brisket on rice
  • Dumplings
