Cart noodles are Hong Kong’s ultimate fast food. When you order, you shout your choice of noodles, pick some toppings, and get a bowl of noodles sent right to your table in less than a minute.

Nowadays, you won’t find cart noodles on the street anymore, but there are still stores continuing the tradition. We went to a Michelin-recommended cart noodle shop to see how they’re made.
