the only good monkee is a dead monkee.especially if they paint.
Does this monkey paint?
She IS a lying Dai Ho! (haha..couldn't resist that one). But yeah, they have a secret ingredient in there that she won't reveal. Which is fine with me since it keeps me coming back.One thing about Dai Ho is that the Soup Nazi owner is so guarded with his secret recipes that he refuses to expand. He's had many offers from people to expand to Hacienda Heights area but has turned them all down.The fact that he only opens till 3ish pm tells u that he values his lifestyle and protecting his secret ninja formula more so than selling out. Kinda reminds me of a kung fu film I saw. I believe it was "The Prodigal's Son" with Sammy Hung, the Apprentice, begs this Master to teach him the secret moves.The Master refuses, not wanting others to know the technique.The Apprentice confronts him and says:"What happens if you die? Then your secret dies with you and it will be a great loss to this earth!"The Master ponders and realizes his mortality for the first time and eventually decides to teach the Apprentice.What's my point? Ok, maybe I have no point. haaa. Fear not, The Soup Nazi does have a daughter that works there, though the Nazi and his wife always complain to me that she no longer speaks Taiwanese.So I'm thinking, someone should offer to teach their daughter Taiwanese in exchange for some recipes...Hmmmm.
Yes. their sig dish is the beef noodles but it's NOT for everyone who can't enjoy spice. My friends and I have tried to reverse engineer the spices and the most mysterious ingredident is this black substance we conclude is either ground up "ma lah" 麻辣. Either that or gunpowder, take your pick.That being said, their other noodles are just as tasty including the Chicken soup (a great contrast to the Beef) as well as their cold dishes: spicy tofu and picked veggie.If only someone can consult these Chinese restaurants in terms of names. First we have "Yung Ho" on Valley and now there's "Dai Ho."Are they all being named by some Chinese pimp?
Hmm...well, throw out any racial conspiracy theories and focus on the obvious: $$. Maybe they feel Chinese are too cheap to fork out $5 for yogurt. Heck, $5 in beijing can feed a family of 4.Besides, look at how at how messy the boba market is right now. Nothing but a wasteland of dynastic proportions.
