#I don't think wen would have egg waffles at his stall but a girl can dream

Hm, I’m pretty sure the Fried Long Lads are inspired by these!

They’re called “youtiao,” a Chinese salty fried dough strip. They can be pretty oily — the name literally translates to “oil strip/stick.” You can eat them with congee (a Chinese rice porridge) by cutting or tearing it into pieces and putting it in the congee. You can also dip them in savoury soy milk! But I usually just eat them on their own — I should eat them with congee more often, though, since sometimes, I find them too oily and heavy on their own.

Anyway, I think I would have liked to visit Wen’s stall in Eridia’s Lowtown, especially if he also sells cong you bing (do you see the “you” again? Yep. The name translates to scallion oil cake. So, fried scallion pancakes!).
