About Ba Shan

Steps from Green Square Station, Ba Shan turns out rich Sichuan beef noodle bowls and fiery wontons at blistering speed. Zetland locals treat the compact counter-order noodle bar as their reliable weeknight standby for quick, punchy home-style cooking. The braised beef noodle soup arrives with tender chunks of beef and chewy noodles submerged in a deeply spiced broth, while the house dan dan noodles pack a dry, tingling kick of málà heat. Grab a squeeze bottle of the house-made chilli oil from the self-service station, find a seat on the sheltered outdoor patio, and dive into a plate of crunchy fried wontons or shallot pancakes before the broth even cools.

  • Braised Beef Noodle Soup: Simmered into a balanced, rich broth loaded with tender beef chunks and wheat noodles.
  • Outdoor Patio Seating: Sheltered alfresco seating with heaters offering extra elbow room just off the counter.
  • Self-Service Station: House-made chilli oil and tableware ready for fast, self-directed dining.
