We had passed by Old Xian’s Food many times when AngryRussian has softball and every time I had wanted to go. I finally got the chance when I had a huge noodle craving one night and we made the out-of-the-way drive to the Kingsway location. Old Xian shares a small parking lot with a few other shops and […]
