The Food A friend wanted to try a variety of food for his birthday, so Hu Bei Restaurant was a desired choice. Needless to say, we ordered quite a bit of dishes to try amongst everyone. I believe they also gave us a complementary noodle on the house, which was awesome. Cucumber with Garlic Sauce 凉拌黄瓜 Spicy Dumplings, Sour Oil 紅油抄手 Spicy Boiled Beef Lamb 水煮牛 羊肉 Ping Xiang Fried Pork 平那小炒肉 Cumin Beef Steak 孜然牛排 Ma Po Tofu Pork 麻婆豆腐 A Choy w Garlic Sauce 蒜蓉A菜 Dry Cooked String Beans 干煽四季豆 Eggplant with Szechuan Sauce 鱼香茄子 Golden Prawns 黃金金沙蝦 Fried Rice 炒饭, 虾 All the food was very delicious with good flavors and taste. I enjoyed the noodle dish Wuhan Hot Noodles, 武漢熱干麵 they gave us. I also liked their Spicy Boiled Beef Lamb and Cumin Beef Steak. Though I wish these two dishes were a bit more...meaty. My friends and I were quite satisfied after the meal. But there were many more dishes to try, so perhaps we will return another time. The Miscellaneous The restaurant is within a small plaza, but there seems to be a decent amount of parking. The inside is not super big, but there is quite a bit of seating for various group sizes. The interior has interesting decor to bring out the theme of a Chinese restaurant. Their services seemed efficient, the food arrived at time not too long after ordering. Their staff was very kind and sincere, not like your typical asian restaurant, big thumbs up. They have an extensive menu with many varieties of dishes to choose from. The prices are quite reasonable also on their standard dish, with specialty dishes slightly more expensive. I would still come back and visit to try their other selection though.

It is difficult to find truly authentic Hubei food. But this place has it on site. I recommend the Wuhan Bean Skin (No, as it sounds, it's sticky rice with Tofu skin) and Dry Fried Whole Fish.

Authentic Wuhan foods. Recommend the roasted sweet potato pancakes ≠ It may be crunchy. The bean egg wrapper is also famous in Wuhan and is a must. Wuhan hot noddle ≠) looks a little different than I had in Wuhan. But it is still very good and close to the original Wuhan style. We ordered the salt bean milk and tasted a little bitter. We asked the waitress and the owner why it tasted so. They had no idea, but instead offered us the sweet bean milk.

I was in a hurry, so I forgot to order authentic Hubei food. The court I ordered was still delicious and the owner was very friendly.
