民扬摊摊面(火车站商贸小区店)

Handmade noodles with cured pork – I've tried this combination at other places before, but this one is truly exceptional. The noodles are handmade, giving them a chewy texture, and the cured pork is thinly sliced, stir-fried until fragrant, and its oily sheen perfectly complements the noodles. At only 15 yuan per person, it's rare to find such a satisfying meal at these prices. I recommend giving it a try if you're passing by; just order this.

The broth for the rice noodles is indeed light, but you can taste the umami flavor from simmering the bones. For the noodles, I recommend choosing thin noodles; cook them just until they're cooked through, then remove them from the water and mix them with the sauce for a particularly springy texture. Their sauce has a slightly sticky, starchy consistency, similar to potato starch noodles, which surprisingly pairs well with the thin noodles.

This stall serves mashed potatoes, with a soft and chewy texture that's very pleasant. Be sure to add chili, and pair it with the free garlic side dish—the flavor is just right. Sit on a small stool by the roadside, slowly mix it, and eat it while it's still warm; it's incredibly relaxing.
