a vague "asian wheat noodles?" -> there are many kinds
I haven't been to Liang's kitchen, but my family is from Taiwan.This looks like it has promise, but sadly it seems to fall short of Saveur's "savor a world of *authentic* cuisine"
the recipe sounds delicious,, but the printout took up 3 pages ! Why not get your site to just print out the recipe and forget all the outher nonsense.....it's quite bothersome and a waste of paper.
