This Cantonese dish of a deep-fried mount of thin wheat noodles (much like angel hair pasta) can come up to six inches high. It is then slathered over with and eggy seafood or meat sauce, like black bean beef, prawns, fish or mix the seafood with pork slices. You crush in and devour as the sauces slowly soften so you get both the crispy and the saucy parts in one bite.

After two decades of listing them for this item on Makansutra, it is still the gold standard and hardly any has come along to dethrone them. It’s how they prepare the noodles before deep frying that mount. Theirs come crispy and sans any starchy sensation. One trick is they remove the residual flour dusting on the noodles from the supllier packs, wash and dry them before they deep fry it. A rich meat or seafood sauce thickened by a roux, with black bean fish slices, sliced beef or prawns is slathered over the crispy noodle. You eat it as it crackles and soften some of the crispy noodles. It is soft, crispy, with a smoth sauce and topped with vegetables, meat or seafood. Order their milky fish belly soup to go with it or a plate of bitter gourd pork ribs in black bean sauce for a more complete meal here.
