Banmian (板麵) is a popular noodle dish consisting of handmade noodles served in soup.The name banmian (board/block noodle) came from the Hakka’s method of cutting the noodle into straight strands using a wooden block as ruler. In Hakka some might call it Man-Foon-Char-Guo (麵粉茶粿) or Dao-Ma-Chet (刀嬤切).In Hokkien it was called Mee-Hoon-Kueh (麵粉粿; lit. wheat snack) but what we can find at hawker stalls is generally called banmian.
