NEW YEAR, NEW ARCADE
Starting 2023 as we mean to go on, catch two cult favourite pop-ups launching this month, with Liu Xiaomian NOW LIVE in Arcade.

Liu Xiaomian noodles are offering classic regional Chinese dishes with a variety of toppings during their month long pop-up. These include: restorative Xiaomian in an aromatic broth; thick Hot and Sour Glass Noodles in a spicy black vinegar broth; and Pork Wontons in a tingling peppercorn-packed broth.

Authentic Italian gelato arrives from Bocca di Lupo's sister gelateria, Gelupo. All their fan favourite flavours will be on offer as well as a few seasonal specials for the three month residency. 

Read on to find out more.
IN THE KITCHEN WITH
LIU XIAOMIAN
Born out of a yearning for the hot and spicy noodle broths of their home region of Chongqing in China, Liu Xiaomian was developed by flatmates turned business partners, Charlene Liu and Linda Liu. 

Differing to the intensely laboured and slow creation of its Japanese ramen counterpart, Chongqing noodle broths are not simmered, nor cooked. Instead, punchy flavours of peppercorns, home-made chilli oil, sesame, and numerous  spices come together in a thick paste. Boiling water is then added to create a glossy and spicy broth to coat the noodles.

On offer are two classic Chongqing dishes, the first a Xiaomian wheat noodle, in an aromatic and spicy broth, whilst the second is Hot and Sour Glass Noodles, a street food popular throughout the region. Each noodle base comes with a variety of toppings and is customisable to your choice of spice level.

Grab a plate of pork wontons too, adding a tingling sensation from the green peppercorns that are the heart of the dish. 

Available Tuesday-Saturday, until 4 February.
GELUPO'S BITTER
CHOCOLATE GELATO
New year's resolutions are boring. Make gelato instead. 

Maintaining the integrity of a deeply chocolate flavour, satisfy those cravings whenever they strike, and make your own bitter chocolate gelato at home.
