1 restaurant serving Stir Fry Noodles
Carson, CA
“Chow Fun Express serves Filipino and Chinese cuisine in Carson with a 3.7-star rating from 50 reviews. The restaurant's name references chow fun (wide rice noodles)-a Chinese dish that has been embraced by Filipino cuisine as part of the pancit family. This reflects the deep culinary connections between Chinese and Filipino food traditions, shaped by centuries of Chinese migration to the Philippines. Chow Fun Express offers both Chinese classics and Filipino favorites, appealing to Carson's diverse Asian-American community. This dual-cuisine approach is common in Filipino restaurants, as many Filipino dishes have Chinese origins or influences-from pancit (from Chinese "pian sit") to siopao and lumpia. The "Express" in the name suggests quick service and takeout convenience, ideal for Carson residents and workers seeking fast, affordable Asian comfort food. Located on West Carson Street in the heart of Carson's business district, the restaurant serves lunch and dinner crowds looking for familiar flavors without the wait. While the 3.7 rating suggests room for improvement, the 50 reviews indicate steady patronage from customers who appreciate having both Filipino and Chinese options in one location. For Filipino-Americans who grew up with Chinese-Filipino cuisine, Chow Fun Express provides access to both culinary traditions that have shaped their food culture.”
