You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Cart noodle''' (((zh|s=车仔面|t=車仔麵|p=|first=t)))  is a noodle dish which became popular in [[Hong Kong]] and [[Macau]] in the 1950s through independent street vendors operating on roadsides and in public housing estates in low-income districts, using carts.<ref name="people">((Cite web |url=http://www.people.com.cn/GB/42272/42280/42458/42580/3146912.html |title=Cart noodles |access-date=2007-03-15 |language=zh |archive-date=2007-08-22 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070822150835/http://www.people.com.cn/GB/42272/42280/42458/42580/3146912.html |url-status=dead ))</ref><ref name="Time Out Hong Kong 2019">((cite web | title=The best local food in Hong Kong | website=Time Out Hong Kong | date=16 January 2019 | url=https://www.timeout.com/hong-kong/restaurants/best-food-in-hong-kong | access-date=26 August 2019))</ref> Many street vendors have vanished but the name and style of noodle endures as a [[cultural icon]].<ref name="cnn">((cite web

==History==
((citations needed|date=April 2023))
With many immigrants arriving from [[mainland China]] during [[1950s in Hong Kong|the 1950s]], [[hawker (trade)|hawkers]] would sell food out of a cart roaming the streets.<ref name="people" /> Some vendors specialising in cooked noodles would sell them with an assortment of toppings and styles.<ref name="hiphongkong">

Historically, the cart frames were assembled out of wood with metallic [[Bowl (vessel)|basin]], allowing the heat inside to cook the ingredients. In the past ((when?|date=April 2023)), it was possible to receive large quantities for a cheap price. The noodles were considered "cheap and nasty"((citation needed|date=April 2023)), with the  cost kept low to appeal to the average citizen. Given this, the dish was also commonly referred ((by whom?|date=April 2023)) as "filthy noodles" (嗱喳麵). Since hygiene standards rose, many street vendors, licensed or otherwise, have vanished.

==Legacy==
The name and style of the noodle endures, and remain widely available in low- to mid-end [[Cha chaan teng|eateries]]. The price may vary depending on the combination of ingredients, or type of establishments. On the contrary, because the noodle is now defined by its [[retro]] style, it can sometimes be found in higher-end establishments.  It may offer costlier types of ingredients at a higher price.

==Typical combinations==
Cart noodles is typically based upon the diner choosing various ingredients they would like, including the type of noodles, various soup broths, and toppings.<ref name="Time Out Hong Kong 2019"/> Examples of types of noodles and toppings, which may vary considerably from stall to stall:
