Whenever my family and I went out to eat at a Canontese restaurant, we’d always get some kind of dumpling noodle soup. While this soup was and still is one of my mom and dad’s favorite dishes, I never really cared for it. I much preferred stir-fried noodles because I always burned my tongue on the piping-hot soup. As I got older and became pescetarian, I was always weary about whether the broths were vegetarian or chicken-based. So even if I wanted that one-off noodle soup, I never ordered it.
