I was pleasantly surprised to see the place busy, see, the last time I had been to the area was in 2006 and it was dark, a lot of places weren't operating, quite scary, in fact.
After checking out most of the vendors, we chose Mini Garden Express' crispy gau gee noodle...$7.50 + tax.
I think this type of noodle is what they call "Hong Kong" style, it is on the thin side. I like it and the fact that they fry it up crisp for this dish too!
We want to check out some of the other places here, we'll be back!

Yeah; the noodles look like "Hong Kong Style"......how come you didn't order the noodles "Cake Noodle" style? Especially in Hawaii. I miss cake noodles -- a culinary mistake many years ago in Hawaii that should be made into a Chinese culinary standard everywhere.

Yum. After last night's heavy on the fried antipasti and meat dinner, I am so craving for vegs. I feel so weighed down!
ReplyDeletethis had quite a bit of veg, Rowena, but lots of noodles too :)
ReplyDeleteTake care.
