Home of the world famous Santa Anita Racetrack and the Arboretum, Arcadia has morphed into an upscale Asian neighborhood. The San Gabriel Valley is famous for its Asian population and food stretching east from the epicenter of Monterey Park. Those with money have gravitated over to San Marino and Arcadia. Fortunately, they've brought their food with them.
Across the street from the world famous Din Tai Fung dumpling house is our favorite place for Chinese soup, the 88 Noodle House.
While there is an extensive menu here, I come for one thing...beef tendon noodle soup.
These little bits of jellied cow floating in a spicy and savory broth are just irresistible. Imagine the best ribeye steak literally melting in your mouth and you get a hint of the taste. Along with the noodles, spinach, and that tasty broth, it makes for a soup you'll remember to your grave.
Also, Letty likes to have the shrimp and pork dumplings that rival the famous ones people are lined up for across the street.
88 Noodle House is in a strip mall on Baldwin Avenue, just north of the corner of Baldwin and Duarte and about 4 blocks south of Santa Anita Mall.
