Cheong Fun
Also known as 'Rice noodle rolls', it is a fairly simple dish and is only made by steaming and rolling rice noodles. Although cheong fun is considered street food, it is also eaten at breakfast and yumcha. What goes well with cheong fun? different kinds of sauces go well with this simple delicacy, At yumcha, it is served with soy sauce and you have the option dip it into a chilli sauce. However it is not the same when buying cheong fun on the streets. On the streets it is served with a sweet sauce and sesame oil and the occasional sprinkle of sesame seeds.
Fun fact, cheong fun in Hong Kong is called 'pig intestine noodles' because of the appearance. The slippery white texture closely resembles pig intestines. BUT, you have to taste it first to judge.
