晓小面

I got up early to check in at Xiao Xiaomian, which is not far from the hotel. It is also a small noodle shop that is popular with locals. The environment is really not good, and most of the tables are shared. I ordered the signature Xiao Xiaomian. After it came, I found that 3 taels was a bit too much. 2 taels is enough for people with small appetites. I slowly mixed the noodles evenly and started to enjoy it. The seasoning was still very good. I asked for a little more spicy. The more I ate, the more fragrant it became, and the taste became stronger and stronger. I must eat the leaves, which are not just for garnishing.

It is right next to the Lifan Stadium. You can find it by following the navigation. A typical Chongqing fly restaurant, where benches can be used as tables. The noodles rely on chili peppers. The chili peppers here are very fragrant and spicy. The peas are cooked soft.

Xiao Xiaomian is actually the simplest plain noodles, without any toppings. They are generous with the seasonings for their noodles. There are a lot of red oil chili shells, but they are not very finely ground. With so many red oil chili shells, I thought it would be very spicy at first, but after eating it, I found that the chili only looked a lot, and the taste was not very spicy, but I could clearly feel the unique aroma of the chili shells.
