Hainan rice noodle is one of the most characteristic dishes of south China's Hainan Province. With a long history, the dish is generally eaten by residents in northern Hainan, including Haikou City, Ding'an County and Chengmai County. The noodles symbolize longevity and good luck and are often seen at local festivals and celebrations.
The marinade is an integral part of Hainan rice noodle, and the addition of chili sauce makes the dish all the more delicious. Before you finish eating, pour a small bowl of sea clam soup over the remaining rice noodles and stir them together to enjoy a tasty way of rounding off the dish.
