Down-to-Earth Chinese Food

Northern China beef noodles
This afternoon, my family and I wanted to try some authentic Northern Chinese cuisine while we were visiting the La Puente area. We ended up in a spotting an interesting restaurant name called Earthen Restaurant (Northern Chinese restaurant). I walked into the restaurant, thinking I would find a lot of veggie dishes. I was wrong. Upon opening the door, I was greeted by a waitress holding a savory beef noodle soup covered in veggies. My mouth was watering upon seeing the delicious bowl of noodles, and I immediately ordered that when we got to the table. We waited for 15 minutes fot the bowl to arrive. As soon as the steaming noodle soup arrives. I automatically took a small bowl-full of noodles and beef and savoringly ate them. The noodles were sort of thick and soft in texture; the veggies were purely ripe, crispy, white, and green; and the beef was juicy, soft, and plumpy. Accompanied with a unsalty beef soup base, the combination of that meal was outstanding!
