Ra ga mian is the local food that everyone eats for breakfast or anytime you want something tasty. It is basically a breakfast type dish. It is made with mian noodles that are boiled, then are added some peanut sauce, some salt, some other white powdery stuff, then some green onions, then some hot peppers, then some carrot bits, then some dried peas. This may sound wierd but it is very good to eat.
The closest I can come to figuring out the american Chinese food equivalent is to cold sesame noodles, only nice and hot and spicier. The basic taste if sort of peanutty. I like to add extra hot chili to make it spicier.
A bowl costs 3 RMB, which is about $0.50 USD. Quite a bargain, but you can't eat it all day. I think of it as a donut in noodle form with some delicious spicy sauce.
