Hand-made mantou (Noodle House 麵香園 in Monterey Parks) The lady owner 老闆娘 had a big smile when I asked to buy 5 of them again. She said, "I thought only us northern people eat mantou, but you like it, too." I told her that when we were in the military training, the breakfast every morning included soybean milk and mantou which were hand-made by veteran soldiers from China. Naturally I have developed a taste for such a pastry delicacy." (note: the owner's family are from Tian-jin 天津, neighboring with Ching-dao 青島 the German occupied city before 1949)
