"miasta", where the "mia" is from Chinese.

pesxu already do everything that we need to  talk about "pasta". Indeed, what are the defining features of Italian pasta?
We shouldn't talk about the etymology of the word "pasta" itself cuz it's definitely {pesxu} in the most general sense.

I'd just say {nanba pesxu}, {febvi pesxu} etc.

If it's really needed then {nudle}.

{miasta} sounds like {mian+pasta} i.e. {nanba pesxu} which can be not only Italian pasta.
