Jiangjiaqiao Wonton and Noodle Shop 

Yangzhou people's craziness for noodle is astounding, as they believe they are awakened every morning by their fondness of noodle, rather than the alarm clocks. 

Wonton is one of their other favorites, and the creative Yangzhou residents made a delicious combination, making wonton with noodle, or jiaomian, a popular, affordable and unique local dish. 

They even bestow the dish an auspicious meaning, which translates as "wonton with noodle, a concoction of meat and vegetables in a bowl, mixes together the happiness of daily life."
