I chanced upon Dong Fang Kan Chia Mee, a stall that sells rickshaw noodles (拉车面). As it turns out, this dish was a staple for rickshaw pullers in the past as it was inexpensive and filling. I would say that the rickshaw noodles of old can be likened to instant noodles of today.
The noodles were soft and broke apart easily when I bit into them. The humble bowl consists of a thick gooey soup and simple ingredients such as vegetables and some dried shrimps. The soup had a very alkaline taste which was derived from the egg noodles. There were a few pieces of fried vegetable fishcakes as well. They added some texture and flavour to the dish. Each bowl is sold for a very low price of just $2.
