Spaghetti. The others don't look appetising (to me, anyway).

Ramen I suppose. I like spaghetti and meat sauce, but only because the tomato and hamburger completely cover up the taste of the noodles, which are just starchy tasting.

Those Sheng Mian things look gross. Even that shrimp in there looks weird.

I like this thick white noodle pronounced 'hor phun' (no idea what it is actually called) in Cantonese. Normally there are two choices of noodles when you order from noodle stores here in Hong Kong, one is mien and the other is hor phun.

I also like ramen. I have only eaten ramen in proper Japanese ramen shops in Sydney twice but I always cook the instant ramen by Nissin foods when I'm hungry and mum is not home to cook.

Lonelynight, do you make noodles yourself a lot? Are there any basic recipes you or people you know like to go by?

I could Google I 'spose, but I figure I'd ask.

I like them a lot, but I don't know how to make any Asain-styIe noodle dishes yet!

Is there really a distinct difference in flavor between those Asian noodles, or is it like the difference between spaghettoni and spaghettini? That is, just a different shape or style of noodle with basically the same flavor.

I think that translates here as "rice-noodle". This seems to be about right:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beef_chow_fun

That's my favourite. Then next would be Vietnamese Pho.

I usually just buy them from hawker stores :P, but my dad knows how to make a few types.

Different types of noodles have different flavours and textures.

I had to look up a hawker store. Those look awesome!

Well thank you for the reply! c:

I'm going to have to see if I can figure out how to make them sometime.

Why would you put options like La Mian and Sheng Mian, and at the top of the list too? It's not like they're common where most people that are on this forum are from... Anyways... I picked Spaghetti, but my answer would be Chow Mein.

That's fine, I was just curious.... seemed like odd choices. Expected to see a lot more dishes that were common in the "Western world". lol Hell, I live in the U.S. and I'm not sure if I've ever heard of La Mian or Sheng Mian until now. What nationality are they of?

It seems as if the American near-equivalent of La Mian would be Lo Mein and the equivalent of Sheng Mian would be Chow Mein.
