Like Huaiyang Dishes, Yangchun Noodles look normal, but are actually very daintly. The name of "Yangchun" was given by Qianlong Emperor of Qing Dynasty. When Qianlong arrived in Huai’an during his southern tour, he had a meal at a noodles restaurant, and found the noodles very delicious; when he knew that the noodles have not got a name, he said since it was March, a month of sunny spring (English meaning of "Yangchun"), the noodles could be called as Yangchun Noodles. Since then, the noodles restaurant became prosperous and later turned to be Zhenfengyuan Restaurant, a famous old restaurant in China.
