Hey Noodles Dine-in Menu
Hey Noodles is a chain of casual noodle restaurants that specialize in Xiăo Miàn and originated in Chongqing, China. In the early 2000s, a Xiăo Miàn craze spread through China like wildfire, and the chain grew to more than 200 locations.

The reputation of their Xiăo Miàn noodles reached Chinese Canadians which inspired them to open their first location in Downtown Toronto’s vibrant Spadina Chinatown neighbourhood in 2015. Within a few weeks, their restaurant was a hot spot among Asian millennials and other locals who wanted to try their flavourful noodles.

Since then, they have continued to grow by opening six new locations in the GTA and needed a new brand identity that could reach a broader audience in Canada and eventually North American wide.

Last but not least for the Hey Noodles dine-in menu featured food photography and the items listed in both Mandarin and English. We decided to create a simple three fold laminated menu so it could withstand the many lunch rush-hour services and potential oily spills. Apart from the main menu we designed a single order sheet so people can easily place a “Make-your-own-bowl” order. Since these were only to be used once we added a fun little crossword puzzle contest on the back. Customers can fill it in a participate in a draw to win prizes once a month.
