Hong Kong Fooey? No! Hong Kong Noodles!!!

Hey all,

I'd like to share a recipe with you. It's a new taste treat that Jonathon counts as one of his faves and turned me onto it this last week. We can get it in any number of the food stalls around Singapore, but only a few do it just right.

Asian food is a great treat. I actually expected to gain weight here, but instead I'm losing it. Part is all the rambling I'm doing and the swimming I do every morning, but since 90% of the people in Singapore are skinny, it's gotta mean something, right?

I've always liked this type of food and now I can try all different things for very little money. I've found the street vendors are much better cooks than the restaurants and they are a lot cheaper, too.

So, here is my newest favorite treat. This recipe is similar to one I purloined from Asian chef down on Orchard Street. It's sometimes made with shrimp or prawns like in the picture, but I enjoy it best with bits of chicken and bean sprouts in it. Yum!!!! Enjoy!!!!
