Being the jock I am, one-upmanship is something I partake in regularly. Â Though it's never been official, and I have been having an ongoing feud to see who has the edge in the battle of VIA noodle supremacy.
I'd say so far Boon has had the edge, with his comprehensive coverage of in Vancouver, but I'm upping the ante with one of my favourite noodle dishes, Dan-Dan or Tan-Tan noodle soup.
When I was living downtown, the place to get this dish was at . Â If you're in that neck of the woods, it's the best Chinese place by far, the menu is extensive, the kitchen is up front and clean, the people who run it are always friendly too. Â It's great home cooked style food just like how Mama Choy cooks.

As you can see, it's rich! Â The broth is spicy and peanuty, I'd say it's more rich than ramen (without the cheese and extra stick of butter), it's neck and neck w. Laksa.
The noodles used in Yopo's version is the thicker egg noodles, I've had it at Chong Quing too and they use a thinner rice noodle. Â I like them both, the egg noodles make it feel more like a meal, but the thinner noodles soak up the broth really nicely. Â At five bucks even, it's a steal in Yaletown.
