Sang Kee: Noodles in the House!

Posted by Samantha Lazar on January 22, 2010

Every campus needs a noodle house. Lucky for Penn, Sang Kee has taken up residence next to the Sheraton at 36th and Chestnut Streets. The noodle house is the newest Sang Kee endeavor – you might know about the famous Sang Kee Peking Duck House in Chinatown. The menu at the noodle house offers many of the tried-and-true favorite dishes from the Peking Duck House, but the real focus is on (surprise, surprise) noodles!

“Focus” is a bit of an understatement, though. Rather, Sang Kee raises the humble noodle to a true art form. And it definitely caters to the college crowd, with its affordable, heaping portions and laid-back vibe. Noodle soup seemed to be what most of the diners were chowing down on, and for good reason. Filled with slippery thick noodles, vegetables, tasty broth and all sorts of meat, the massive bowls of soup make a great meal. Try the Tender Rib Noodle Soup for a hearty, soothing bowlful. If you’re not in a soup mood, no worries. Tuck into a plate of the crowd-pleasing Beef Chow Fun, the unique Needle Noodle, or (my favorite) the Roasted Duck with Stir Fried Udon Noodles. It gets a subtle kick from its special XO sauce. There are also tons of choices for health fiends and vegetarians. A platter of Baby Bok Choy is to die for, with a garlicky sweetness and gentle crunch. Since they’re currently still waiting on their liquor license (oh, Pennsylvania!), wash it all down with a delicious fruit smoothie or bubble tea.

And if a big bowl of noodles isn’t enough of a draw, how about this: there are two private karaoke rooms, complete with disco balls and state of the art karaoke machines. You can reserve a room for an hour and cram as many people into it as you’d like for just $30. Craving your noodle fix but can’t find a friend to join you? No problem: grab a seat at the bar and switch on your favorite show – personal tv’s provide entertainment for solo diners. If that’s *still* not enough to get you in there, consider this: A Grand Opening Special is running until the end of January. Sign up for the special on their website, and you’ll be emailed a coupon for a whopping 50% off your meal!
