Dave and Marc are talking about Dun Dun, chinese spicy noodles in heavy peanut sauce.  I had a lot of that at one of Dave's bloggers dinner and so did Dave.  Peanut is supposed to be good for your health, but it sure didn't taste like health food.

Speaking of spicy noodles, try Bi-Bim-Naeng-Myun, a Korean spicy noodle.  Bi-Bim means mixed.  Naeng means cold and Myun means noodle.  Put it all together and you get Mixed-Cold-Noodle.  What makes it special is what you mix the cold noodle with.  Usually its real mean spicy red pepper sauce.  My wife knows the secret receipies of Oh-Jang-Dong, a neighborhood in Seoul famous for Bi-Bim-Naeng-Myun, and it is spicy enough to put me on a week of liquid diet if I had it too often.  Now thats spicy!  Yum.

Michael Earl says Cambridge has spicy noodles. "I strongly recommend Mary Chung's Dun Dun Noodles (in Central Square, Cambridge) — heavy noodles in a hot peanut-based sauce, shredded chicken optional. The Peking Ravoli and Suan La Chow Shao soup are also fabulous. It's a favorite of the MIT comp-sci culture, interestingly." [Scripting News]

I heartily concur. In fact when I first heard Dave say 'spicey noodles' I thought of Dun Dun noodles and David Levitt – my friend who went to M.I.T. who used to take me to Mary Chung's.  I believe it's on Mass Ave.   David now has a company called "Connected TV". [Marc's Voice]
