In lieu of an Ethnic Eating Adventure this week, behold instead the incredible spectacle of Men Making Noodles, right before your very eyes! Be dazzled by their dough-slinging prowess and finger flexibility. Be amazed by the precision and grace with which they stretch. And read on to learn where you, too, can enjoy a bowl of hand-pulled noodles.

Tasty Hand-Pulled Noodles : This Chinatown favorite is a barely more than a hole in the wall, but it's the cheapest (most everything hovers around the $5 mark) and one of the best places to get your carbo-fix. Just peek your head through the window to see strong-armed noodle throwers doing their thing.
1 Doyers St // 212-791-1817

Hung Ry: For classier Chinese-style hand-pulled noodle enthusiasts, try this newish NoHo spot, which uses organic, locally-sourced ingredients for their upscale noodle dishes (with a price tag to boot). But you can still see noodlemen thwacking away behind the bar.
55 Bond St // 212-677-4864

Ready to carboload? Here are a few more places to find the hand-pulled delights.
