Yunnan‑Style Claypot Rice Noodles in Shenzhen Dongmen: Authentic Guanguan Noodles With 20+ Toppings

You don’t have to go all the way to Yunnan to enjoy Claypot Rice Noodles anymore! Here in Shenzhen, you can have the first try of such peculiar noodle.

📍 A new shop has opened right across from Dongmen 1234 Mall.

✨️ Even at around 8 PM, there were still plenty of people eating inside, so I decided to give it a try.

The seating area is not very spacious, and the single seats feel a bit tight.
🌱 As soon as you walk in, you’ll see 20+ types of toppings laid out in front of you :🧂 Mint leaves, celery, zhe’ergen, fermented bean curd, and more.

🍽️ What I Ordered

✅ Mujiangzi Rice Noodles (Mild Spicy)

Although labeled “mild spicy,” the ginger flavor is extremely strong — as a Cantonese, I personally found it a bit unacceptable. It is too spicy for me.
But the ingredients and flavor are generous and rich. It comes with tomato, mujiangzi, minced meat, mint leaves, rice noodles, and more.

✅ Wolf‑Tooth Shaped Potatoes

This dish is well‑seasoned, crispy, and very appetizing. But it also contains chinese pepper, a kind of pepper makes you feel numb in your tongue.

✅ Ice Jelly

I don't know why it is topped with sesame. This option feels weird to me as someone who lives in Guandong Province. The taste was average.

📚 Overall Review

This food is flavorful, provides generous portions, and is worth trying if you enjoy strong Yunnan-style seasonings. But for me personally, it was a bit too spicy and not something I’d revisit. There're new restaurants like this recently open in Dongmeng. Some offers the option: claypot passion fruit rice noodles. This one sounds attractive to me so I might give it a go next time.
