Mary was always such a delight. She loved her customers and remembered sone she hadn’t seen in decades. Suan and Dan Dan noodles always hit the spot. Whenever I felt like something off of that list it was quick and inexpensive, no matter which of the random things on the huge menu I ordered.

After the first time I lived in Boston I would make detours on road trips that past anywhere near here just to stop there for Suan.

I hope she and her husband enjoy their retirement and someone in that kitchen takes the recipe for Suan elsewhere. No one else’s is like it.

Talk about a Cambridge institution.
