Authentic Guilin Rice Noodles Review

My friends and I were gonna try another restaurant but then we couldn't find it. We thought maybe that place closed down already. A lot of restaurants close down very quickly for some reason. My friend suggested us to try Authentic Guilin Rice Noodles since we were there already. It's located in Empire Centre where Sunway used to be. When we walked in, it was so quiet, they greeted us in Mandarin. We were the only ones there. When I opened up the menu I'm like uh...is this a joke? It's all Chinese (very authentic), I don't know how to read all of them. How do non Chinese people order their food? My friends said most of the food seems spicy and we don't know what to order. We were gonna leave but then the lady was like are you guys ready to order? My friend just asked her if there are anything that are non spicy. So she suggested a few and we decided to order it. I don't know the names but it was #1 ($9.25) and #2 ($9.25) on the menu.

I've never been to Guilin or tried any Guilin food so I'm not sure how authentic their food were. When #1 came, my friend was like snapchatting what is this?, it was like a bunch of red meat and green veggie stuff on top of noodle (dry, no soup). I thought the colours looked nice together lol! The noodle is actually quite good, it's chewy. I also tried the Chinese sausage, not bad. When mine came (#2), my friends were like yours seems good, it smelled good too when it came. The soup tasted ok, don't know how to describe it though. The chicken was soft and tender which I like. I think there were bamboo in it, those were good. I had the same noodle as my friends (only one kind of noodle I think?), same chewyish texture. The bowls were quite big, my friends couldn't finish their. I was full after I was done, I don't like wasting food so I always try to finish or pack it up. My friends thought it was just soso but I thought it was not bad.

I thought it was pretty quiet there, not sure how they sustain. Only 2 groups of people came in when we were there. It wasn't that early, it was like 7ish already.

The service was good, they were very nice but I'm not sure if they speak English, I'm sure they know but just because we are Chinese they spoke in Chinese? The lady was trying so hard to sell their noodle, said how it's very good. I don't think I would go again just because I don't know how to read Chinese so I wouldn't know what to order.
