YONGHE FISH BALL

20220117 evening: 1. "Yonghe Fish Balls" is located in "Three Lanes and Seven Alleys". Three Lanes and Seven Alleys is a famous old street in Fuzhou. The Ming and Qing architectural complexes are well-known throughout the country. It is one of the "Top Ten Historical and Cultural Streets in China". It is known as the "Living Fossil of the Chinese Urban Lane System" and the "Ming and Qing Architecture Museum". It integrates humanities and food. There are many high-end shops. It is an excellent place for shopping, learning, and walking. In history, there are many celebrities such as Lin Zexu, Shen Baozhen, Yan Fu, Sa Zhenbing, Lin Juemin, Lin Huiyin, Yu Dafu, Chen Jiliang, Bing Xin, etc. There are many well-preserved celebrity residences. The entire ancient city area consists of three lanes ("Yijin Lane", "Wenru Lane", "Guanglu Lane") and seven lanes ("Yangqiao Lane", "Langguan Lane", "Anmin Lane", "Huang Lane", "Ta Lane", "Gong Lane", "Anbi Lane"), which is an open scenic area with free admission. ①Address: No. 139, Nanhou Street, Gulou District, Fuzhou City, Fujian Province. ② Transportation: Direct bus access, easy parking by car. ③ Peak season: None. ④ Duration: 1 day. ⑤ Notes: Many buildings are open only during the day, so it is recommended to visit the cultural scene during the day and the night market at night. 2. The block was first built in the Jin Dynasty. Wang Shenzhi, the King of Min in the Tang Dynasty, built Luocheng. The prototype of the Three Lanes and Seven Alleys was already there, and it reached its peak during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. After the restoration of the Three Lanes and Seven Alleys in 2006, the houses were used for exhibitions of celebrity residences, related cultural introductions, and shops. However, I always went there at night, and many buildings were closed, so the cultural content will be collected later when I go there during the day. 3. Food and drink: After all, Sanfang Qixiang is Fuzhou's business card to the outside world. The catering shops are mid-to-high-end, different from the messy food carts and stalls in ordinary night markets. There are many time-honored brands and intangible cultural heritage snacks, which are mainly concentrated on the north-south main street "Nanhou Street". The more famous ones are: ① Yonghe Fish Balls: Fuzhou famous food, the oldest fish ball brand in Fuzhou area, founded in the sixth year of the Republic of China (1917), is a Chinese time-honored brand, and the fish ball making technique is an intangible cultural heritage of Fujian Province. The founder is Liu Erdi, also known as Liu Bisong. The store is two-story. The second floor is quite stuffy in summer, but the walls and dining tables are densely covered with old photos of Yonghe Fish Balls and honorary awards. The atmosphere is strong, and even the tableware has logos. You can eat in the store or buy it home and cook it yourself. I ordered one to try, and it tasted delicious.

Yonghe Fish Balls are a local delicacy in Fujian and belong to the Fujian cuisine. Yonghe Fish Balls was founded in 1927[1] and is the oldest existing fish ball brand in Fuzhou, Fujian. In 2001, it was awarded the title of "China's Time-honored Brand".

Yonghe Fish Balls, a century-old shop. I've been to the Yonghe Fish Ball Shop on Nanhou Street many times, so many times that... I took shelter here three times, and so many times... I lost my twenty-year-old glasses here. At the entrance of Sanfang Qixiang facing Yangqiao East Road, there is a memorial archway with "Nanhou Street" inscribed on it. After passing the archway and walking along the main road, in less than ten minutes, you will see the wooden sign of "Yonghe Fish Balls" with golden letters on a brown background. The store has two floors. The windows on the upper floor used to be open, but for some reason they were locked last year. When I went there in February this year, I found that the windows were open again. Whether the window can be opened is very important to me. I like to sit by the window on the second floor, with a bowl of fish balls, slowly drinking the soup while looking at the street scenery, the coming and going of people, the ups and downs. Imagine that a long time ago, a beautiful lady in ancient costume met a talented man while taking shelter from the rain in Sanfang Qixiang, or... the story of you and I meeting but not encountering each other. If you want me to wait for you in the rain, please allow me to taste a bowl of "Five Blessings" first. And you wait for me, please lean on the window railing upstairs and enjoy a bowl of shredded fish noodles. The Five Blessings include bird's nest skin wontons, Fuzhou fish balls, fish balls... The jade-white ones that look like "glutinous rice balls" are the signature snack, Yonghe fish balls; the ones that look like wontons but have transparent and shiny skin are meat bird's nests, which I have called "bird's nest skin wontons" since I was a child... In short, there are five things. After eating the two bowls of "Five Blessings" and "Fish Shredded Noodles", you have tasted all the special snacks in the "Yonghe Fish Ball" store. Fish, jade, rain, desire, are homophonic to "meet"; pills and bowls, are homophonic to "late"; when you and I meet, it is already very late, very late. So what about the Yonghe in “Yonghe Fish Balls”? Always be reconciled and harmonious, for a lifetime... Please tell me first... what is happiness. I think blessing is the head of an ostrich. The ostrich buries its head in the sand because it is looking for pearls. Maybe there is someone in the world who knows us better than we know ourselves. It just depends on when, under what circumstances, and in what mood it happens. Sometimes, even if you meet someone, you can only say lightly, Oh, so you are here. Then they passed each other and went their separate ways. The meaning of Yonghe is simply to seek peace in the near while searching for the distant without eternity. Then, the cold factors in life are like the ingredients in a cocktail, and smile is like the cup that holds the wine, raised up to look at the neon lights, these are the hot life that can intoxicate people.

We ate Yonghe fish balls from Sanfang Qixiang, five for ten yuan a bowl, and they tasted much better than ours in Northeast China, very chewy. And I think Tongli meat dumplings are so delicious, ten yuan a bowl, with half and half dough and meat dumplings, but I think the dough is still better, this is true, it is said that the dough is made of fine meat so it tastes different from what we normally eat. In fact, meat dumplings are our small wonton stew in Northeast China. But they taste much better than ours.

❤️Check in at Sanfang Qixiang ✨Fish balls are a must-eat snack in Fuzhou. Yonghe Fish Balls on Nanhou Street is a time-honored brand with a simple and natural environment. Fish balls are divided into shark balls and eel balls. There are graphic introductions in the store to understand the past and present of fish balls. In fact, they are stuffed meatballs with fish meat as the skin. As for what kind of fish meat, eel or shark, I can't tell. A bowl of clear soup, 5 big Q-elastic fish balls, chopped green onions to enhance the flavor, pepper is added to the soup, and the taste is unique. Soothe your stomach ​

Fuzhou Yonghe Fish Balls is an old shop that has been around since 1934. The fish balls are all handmade, delicious, chewy and strong. I don't know how it is usually, but when we went there, there were a lot of people, but the environment was antique and charming.
