Rice noodle rolls: Plain edition. Known as zai cheong 斋肠 in Hong Kong and chee cheong fun 猪肠粉 in Southeast Asia. Noodle sheets wound into tight scrolls are usually enlisted to serve as a bland base for something intensely savory, like braised beef tendon stew, or the chaotic melange of hoisin sauce, sesame paste, and sriracha. Half the fun of eating these dishes is unraveling the noodle coils with your tongue. #RiceNoodleRolls #CheungFun #HongKong #ChineseFood #Asia #travel #food #肠粉 #香港 #中国
