Yes. And you're paying as much for the experience as the food. My wife and I ate at this place on our honeymoon (

i'm a big fan of clay pot noodles, but they're hard to find. i'm down with meat candy like hunan beef or sesame chicken too.

sure there's similarities, but different flavors and clay pot noodles are much heavier
