Best Answer

In Chinese cooking, "Fun" refers to a rice noodle. "Mein" refers to a wheat-flour noodle.

"Mei Fun" is a thin rice vermicelli. "Haw Fun" are broad rice noodles that also contain wheat starch. "Fun see" are noodles made from bean starch, also called bean threads or glass noodles. Fresh egg noodles are called "lo mein."

"Chow" refers to the cooking technique of stir-frying. Thus, chow mein is a fried wheat noodle dish. Chow fun and chow mei fun are stir-fried rice noodle dishes.

Singapore style chow mei fun is a dish of thin rice noodles with vegetables, seafood and curry powder. A common combination would be: celery, scallions, shitake mushrooms, shrimp and barbequed pork, flavored with soy sauce, curry powder and Chinese cooking wine.
