The Noodle Makers from cheng herng shinn on Vimeo.
By Located on the narrow strip of Madison Street sandwiched between Market and Cathrine Street, the Chen Family makes noodles and dumpling skins the old-fashioned way, and I mean old. How? They do it by using mounting a pole and literally jumping up and down to knead the dough.
The Chens are one of the few who actually make noodles this way and the results are stunning. Propelled by word of mouth, their business is booming. It isn’t too often that you get to see young people doing things the traditional way anymore, but Mr. Chen’s 22-year-old son is the exception. He will be opening his very own store, making noodles, in Brooklyn.
