Old Friend Noodles (rice noodles), Nanning

It is the most famous snack in Nanning with a history of a thousand years. It is said that there was an old customer who visited a tea house everyday, but he didn't appear one day since he was suffering with a cold. Having known that, the boss sent him a bowl of hot noodles cooked with chopped garlic, lobster sauce, sour bamboo shoots and chopped beef. The customer got much better after eating it, thus it was named as old friend noodles.

The noodles can help to prevent wet and stimulate the appetite, so it is a long lasting food warmly welcomed by customers.
