Brief introduction of Huimian Noodles in Henan Xiaoji
About Xiao Ji:

Xiao Honghe, the founder of Xiao Ji Huimian Noodles, was once a chef of Zhengzhou State-owned Changchun Hotel. After retirement, he led his two sons to open the Huimian Noodles Pavilion. Instead of following the traditional mutton Huimian Noodles style, he found inspiration from his famous noodles, adding delicious and nutritious sea cucumber and squid to mutton Huimian Noodles, which is called Sanxian Huimian Noodles.

Xiao Ji Huimian Noodles 1986 didn't even have a store when it first opened. At first, it was a canvas tent, a low table, a bench and a pot of soup. In a blink of an eye, today's Xiaoji, only its head office, pays more than 1 10,000 yuan in profits and taxes to the state every year!

Many people have the same memory. At that time, Xiao Ji Huimian Noodles Pavilion was opened in the triangle at the intersection of Renmin Road and Dongtaikang Road, and it was open all night. On a snowy night, three or two confidants gathered here, called a plate of shredded red bean paste and a plate of roast mutton, and a steaming bowl of three fresh Huimian Noodles was placed in front of everyone. Even if you have another bottle of the most common white wine, you can have unlimited pleasure!

It is said that the cause of Huimian Noodles is also related to War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, during which Japanese planes often attacked Zhengzhou. At that time, there was a chef named Zhao. One day, the Eighth Route Army came to his noodle restaurant to eat noodles, which coincided with the bombing of Japanese planes. The noodles became cold after escaping the bombing. Chef Zhao had to put the cold noodles in the hot mutton soup and cook for a while. The soldiers found the re-stewed noodles delicious, too. Later, Chef Zhao devoted himself to research, added some salt and alkali to make it thicker, made noodles with different flavors, and later became a popular flavor food. Gu Qingsheng, a writer, learned of this legend when he was eating rice noodles in Zhengzhou, and suggested opening a rice noodle restaurant in Tokyo, Japan, so that Japanese people could also eat rice noodles, and then told them that rice noodles were a witness food for your Japanese invasion of China and gave the Japanese people a peace education. This proposal is much stronger than the words of patriotic fighters who bloodbath Tokyo.
