When I came to China, I wasn’t thinking about noodles. If I had remembered the history of Marco Polo and his legacy of pasta, I would have known I would find comfort food in China in the way of Chinese noodles. I have obviously had Chinese noodles in the United States. But honestly, most of my Chinese food experience was based on rice. I didn’t realize how prevalent and delicious noodles were in China…until I saw this man making homemade egg noodles!

Now, I don’t know if Marco Polo really was responsible for bringing pasta to Italy after his exploration in the Far East but mamma mia! This is the kind of homemade noodle making skills and taste that would make my Italian nonna proud!!
