CHIU MAI SHEK MO CHEUNG FAN
A RISING STAR IN CANTONESE CUISINE

Canton-style steamed rice noodle rolls have experienced a resurgence in popularity in recent years, and numerous eateries specializing in this classic breakfast dish have emerged throughout the city. One such establishment is Chiu Mai Shek Mo Cheung Fan (潮米石磨腸粉), located in the Tai On Building.

A Unique Stall Experience

So, what sets Chiu Mai Shek Mo Cheung Fan apart from other rice noodle roll vendors? The secret lies in the texture of the dish and the stall's signature sauce. By using a millstone to grind the rice grain directly, the resulting rice batter boasts richer flavors and a smoother texture. Rather than manually rolling the steamed flat batter, the chefs at this eatery skillfully scrape it out, creating creases on the roll's surface that help to better hold the sauce.

Increasing Popularity of Canton-Style Steamed Rice Noodle Rolls

Chiu Mai Shek Mo Cheung Fan offers a range of delectable options, including the classic Char Siu (叉燒) - barbecued pork, dried shrimp, and even combinations like eggs with bacon and sausages. The steamed rice rolls with Sakura Shrimp are particularly recommended for those who enjoy a touch of crunchiness and a hint of seafood flavor. These rolls are generously soaked in a soy sauce mixture, providing an irresistible taste experience. However, the beef option may not be as impressive, as the meat's flavor is somewhat subdued.

With prices ranging from $20 to $30, Chiu Mai Shek Mo Cheung Fan's offerings are slightly more affordable than those found in typical dim sum restaurants. So, make sure to give this unique appetizer a try during your next food tour!
