    Sesame - Shanxi noodles with coconut chicken

    Looking for Asian food in the Roma Norte area, we came across Sesame. They served Pan-Asian…read morecuisines and caught our interest. Easy to make reservation online. The inside is cozy with low lighting. Their menu offer a variety of Asian cuisines from Chinese, Vietnamese, Japanese, Thai, etc. We picked a few items to share: - Vietnamese-style beef carpaccio: a good citrus flavor in the sauce, topped with cashew. Overall good as an appetizer to start off with. - Shanxi noodles with tamarind and coconut chicken: this was our least favorite. The sauce in the noodles was very salty. I couldn't eat it after the first bite. - Tobiko rice: it had shrimp, roasted corn, spicy yuzu mayo, and tobiko. Pretty solid and nicely balance. - Sesame octopus: I like the mashed potatoes that came with it. Octopus had a lot of flavors and good texture. - Saigon style red snapper: wok fried red snapper. Crispy and the seasoning was good on the snapper. Pretty good with a nice citrus red cabbage salad that came with it. - "Chilango" (5 pan fried dumplings): their Mexico-city style dumplings. It had beef confit in the fillings. This was alright. Would prefer for it to be more crispy on the outside. We also tried their ice thai tea, beer, lemonade, and jasmine tea, however did not like the drinks. It felt a bit water-downed and too light. Service was friendly and quick. It wasn't too crowded during dinner time when we were there.

    We didn't have dinner reservations planned for Sunday and didn't realize how many places close…read moreearly. Thankfully, Sesame was open, and the menu was enticing enough for us to book a last-minute table and head over. It's a cute, Asian-style restaurant in Roma Norte. We were greeted right away and told to sit anywhere since it wasn't too busy. I ordered the pork belly bao buns from their popular choices menu and the squid as my entrée. There's just something about pork in Mexico- it's exponentially juicier and more flavorful. Yes, every bite was basically fat... but the best kind of fat. One bao is the perfect appetizer portion. The squid was pretty good too, though I learned that I'm not a fan of bonito flakes. They looked cool, as they were flaky and moving on top of the squid, but the flavor was a bit too fishy for me. Our waiters didn't speak much English, but we got by just fine with some pointing and smiles.
