Cake noodle is a local specialty that every Chinese restaurant in the state serves. Everyone on this rock loves that stuff! When the Hawaiians go to a Chinese restaurant on the mainland they are saddened to hear that nobody there knows what cake noodle is. That's the breaks.

Cake noodle looks exactly like ramen... before cooking it's a hard
cake.
>Several times during the dinner I went outside the restaurant to watch the lunar eclipse. It was a most amazing sight. The crispy gau gee we had was filled with the most amount of stuffing that we had ever seen. I made a joke about the gau gee gets stuffed like that only once in a red moon.
