Cheong Fun Cart

The beef and pork noodles were absolutely outstanding — rich, savory, and packed with depth in every bite. Watching them come together at a humble curbside cart made the experience even more special. The two women running it were incredibly warm and welcoming, moving with skill and confidence as they prepared each bowl to order. There’s something magical about street food done right, and this was exactly that. The broth was deeply flavorful, the meat tender and satisfying, and the noodles perfectly cooked. It felt authentic, comforting, and made with genuine care. After tasting it, the line suddenly made perfect sense. What might look like a simple setup from afar turns out to be a destination in its own right — absolutely worth the wait.

Absolutely outstanding fresh steam rolls. The portions are very generous, and everything tastes incredibly fresh. The shrimp rolls are my absolute favorite, followed closely by the BBQ pork. The texture is unbelievably silky — honestly the silkiest steam rolls I’ve ever had, even better than many I’ve tried across Asia. The lovely ladies running the shop speak limited English but always understand your order and work with such care and diligence. I find myself coming here every weekend, and it’s no surprise the queues keep getting longer. Still, for the quality and the price, it’s 100% worth the wait. And don’t forget to ask for hot sauce (if you can handle it). Pro tip: go early, bring cash, and prepare to enjoy the best steam rolls you’ll ever have. Truly a hidden gem — I just hope they never raise the prices or close down!

Delicious rice noodles. I got the shrimp with extra soy sauce and chili sauce. The noodles had a really nice chewy texture and the portion of shrimp was very generous. This is a must try spot for an on the go snack.

One of the best value food carts you can find. I ordered a prawn noodle with egg for $4.50 and it hit the spot. The noodles wrapped around the prawns are so soft and had a nice bouncy texture. Beautiful flavours. Get in before midday, because they don't open all day.

Waited 30 minutes in 27°F weather, then another 20 minutes after ordering—almost 50 minutes total for a food cart. Ordered four large Cheong Fun (2 shrimp, 1 BBQ, 1 chicken) and was very clear, multiple times in Chinese: NO scallions on all orders. The order was repeated back to me and confirmed. Got home and every order was full of scallions, with cilantro mixed inside one shrimp order. This wasn’t just on top—you can’t remove it. I had to throw everything away. The menu doesn’t list scallions or cilantro, and traditional Cantonese Cheong Fun doesn’t include either. If you add them, fine—but listen when customers ask for none. Spent $22.50, froze in line, and left with nothing edible. With so many good Cheong Fun spots in Chinatown, this wait and order inaccuracy aren’t worth it. Won’t be back.
