A pile of soaked and sauced mei fun noodles are barely visible under heaps of garnishes - mung and soybean sprouts, sliced scallions, honey-roasted peanuts, matchsticked bamboo shoots and water chestnuts, a sprinkle of black sesame seeds, and drizzles of roasted sesame and chili oils.

A kitchen prep counter displays the mise en place: Bottles of light soy sauce, rice vinegar, chili crisp, roasted sesame oil; peanut butter; cans of water chestnuts and bamboo shoots; bags of mung and soybean sprouts, honey roasted peanuts; a container of black sesame seeds. In the foreground are a bowl of about 2 (dry) oz soaking mei fun noodles, a cutting board with grated ginger, pressed garlic, and a sliced scallion, and a sauce bowl with the first tablespoon of peanut butter added.
