Open for less than three weeks, Corner 17Â already has a following in this office. What we like the most about this new bubble tea and Chinese restaurant, located at 6623 Delmar Blvd., in The Loop, are the hand-pulled noodles.

Make tonight’s meal meatless by ordering the Veggie Pan-Stirred Noodles. The lack of a distinct sauce (just a touch of soy) allows the soft yet chewy noodles to shine through and not taste like a salt bomb just went off.  Although we’d be fine with just the noodles (There is nothing slimy or mushy about these guys.), the added bean sprouts, bits of broccoli, shredded carrots, cabbage and zucchini add color, texture – and fool us into thinking we’re eating healthy. If you can’t dine in, we recommend planning to stay a few minutes when you pick up, in order to see the noodles made before your eyes.
