Cantonese Beginners' 2- Day 155- "doggie" noodles shop (spoiler: no dog eating involved)
There's a quite popular dish called gau2 jai2 fan2 (little dog noodles), is believed to be originated in the 50s and 60s in Hong Kong. One potential reason of the name is that the shape of the noodles resemble the shape of dog tails. Another reason may be that Gau2jai2 resembles the sound of gau3 jai3- to give relief, when Hong Kong was in war times.
In this episode, I will introduce a few popular dishes you can find in one of these noodles shops.
