  Stepping through the doors of Murger Han felt like we were stepping into a portal straight into China. We ordered the beef and pork murgers, tofu skewers, glass noodles in sesame sauce, spicy clay pot noodles (I forgot what these were called exactly) and of course the biang biang noodles. Every dish was an absolute delight, though we all preferred the noodles to the murgers. Definitely order the tofu skewers as well- id never seen anything like them before, but will certainly be ordering them again when I return – which will be very soon! Price was reasonable – came down to under 20 per person for quite a generous feast. Highly recommend !

  We actually went to the Mayfair outlet. The price was slightly higher than I would expect for Chinese food. The taste of the dishes however gave me a surprise. They were surprisingly good. I initially had doubt to order the tofu slices in peanut sauce. Hei its great and it has a taste of garlic. The bowl of biang mien is so good too – spicy salty sour all in one. Surely we will come back again. Hope the price does not go ridiculous.

  I was so excited when I found the typical food from my hometown!!! And the flavor is quite authentic 🙂 The restaurant is small and simple, but they serve a variety of traditional food from Shaanxi province.

  Murger Han features the food of lesser known Shaanxi province in China, which borders Sichuan. The clientele consisted mostly of trendy looking young Asians, and all of the tables near us placed their orders in Mandarin. But this is not a place with a basic Chinatown atmosphere. Though casual, it has a modern look decorated with light colored woods. You could bring a date here.We started by sharing the eponymous pork murger more traditionally known as rou jia mo. That’s a Chinese hamburger of pulled pork between a bun of yeasted wheat-based flat bread. Not as exciting as some other Chinese meat sandwiches such as Taiwanese bao’s eaten elsewhere. I preferred my murger doused with a little of the good chili oil that was on the table. Filling was a touch on the dry and salty side for my taste.I adored my main of biang biang mien which transported me to childhood. My mom grew up in Sichuan and used to make a similar tasting noodle dish with a sauce of fried tomatoes and garlic, thickened with beaten egg. This one was better than my mom’s. I would recommend getting this dish with the full works for only an extra 60p, unless you are vegetarian. The version with chilli oil *and* tomato/egg also contains a big dollop of spicy braised pork, a mound of diced Chinese pickled mustard stems and chilli oil, as well as lightly boiled pak choi and tomato/egg sauce on top of thick hand pulled ribbons of rice noodle. Beguiling balance of spicy, tart, salty combined with the richness of egg yolk and the delicate sweetness of fresh tomato. A lovely slithery texture too. My companion ordered the version with only tomato/egg and complained that his dish was a little bland compared to mine.We drank tap water, and a very filling lunch for two came to 22.50 including service. We didn’t manage to finish our mains because the portions are quite large. If you wanted to explore more of the menu they have small bowls on the table so you can share any of the large noodle dishes. I would be happy to order the biang biang mien with the full works here again.
