South of the Clouds 云之南 Jersey City

A great spot in Jersey City if you're craving a big bowl of rice noodles without spending too much. Have been here a couple of times. I usually order the tofu rice noodles — the soft tofu with minced meat and pickled veggies makes the dish really rich but not greasy. We also tried the Dai-style grilled chicken this time. The seasoning reminds me a bit of Southeast Asian flavors. If you're looking for a comforting bowl of noodles near Grove St, this place definitely hits the spot!

Ordered the Crossing Bridge Rice Noodles, Smoked Pork Neck, Spicy Ox Aorta, Fried Stuffed Tofu, and Crispy Fried Milk. Everything was flavorful and well-prepared. The broth was comforting, the pork neck was tender with good texture, and the spicy dish had great wok aroma. Desserts were light and not too sweet. Great experience overall.
