Crazy Fish, located in Nob Hill, Albuquerque close to the University of New Mexico's main campus and next door to the historic Lobo Theatre. The restaurant serves a variety of East Asian cuisine, from sushi and teriyaki to soups and noodles. The menu also has multiple deep-fried items like tempura vegetables and coconut shrimp.
This story features the California Roll and the “Spicy Udon Noodles” subbed with rice noodles. The California Roll tastes best dipped in soy sauce and wasabi with sliced pickled ginger. The wasabi can also be added to the noodles.
The noodles are prepared in a wok with stir-fried vegetables and a choice of protein. The udon noodles are wheat. However, they can be substituted with rice noodles for an equally delicious plate. Udon noodles are thicker and have a slippery texture; rice noodles are thinner and have a stickier texture.
One of the most enjoyable experiences at Crazy Fish is the hot, complimentary bowl of miso soup, which has sliced scallions and bits of seaweed. A perfect umami treat to have before the meal is served.
