Rice Noodle Rolls: The Silken Art of Steaming

The 'Cheung Fun' (Rice Noodle Roll) is the most delicate test of a Cantonese chef’s patience. At Congee Queen, the batter is ground from aged rice to ensure the perfect balance of tensile strength and silken texture.

Hand-Pulled Mastery

Our masters pour the batter onto ultra-fine silk cloths, steaming them for exactly 60 seconds before hand-pulling them into their signature folds. Whether it's filled with succulent BBQ Pork or crispy fried dough (Zha Liang), the skin must be translucent enough to see the filling without tearing.

"A great noodle roll should feel like silk on the tongue but have the strength of tradition."

We serve our rolls with a proprietary light soy sauce, infused with rock sugar and scallion oil, designed to highlight the clean flavor of the rice milk. It’s a morning ritual for thousands of GTA residents.
