ZHOU JI ROU WAN

I ordered two servings of meatballs and tofu + one serving of steamed dumplings, which cost about 30 yuan. As for the taste, I think the meatballs and tofu tasted just average, nothing special. On the contrary, the steamed dumplings tasted better. I asked the store if they had raw dumplings for sale, and wanted to take some back for my wife to try. The store said they only had cooked dumplings, which was a pity.

This is an old store in Guigang City. The taste is good, but the price has increased.

Meatball tofu corners (meatballs + large pieces of fried tofu) are a local snack, full of the flavor of home. You can order just the meatballs. This local snack, which has been passed down for many years, is hard to say whether it is good or bad. It is unnecessary for tourists to make a special trip here. If you have enough time and live nearby, you can walk for three to five minutes to experience the atmosphere of the old neighborhood shop from the 1970s and 1980s. Don't come for the food.

#TravelTrue·Delicious #NicheDiscovery Guigang isn't a traditional tourist destination, but I was passing through on a business trip and took a walk along the Yu River. I stumbled upon Old Street. The arcades, some dilapidated and some worn, seem to tell a story of history. The First Congress of the Communist Party of China in Guangxi is here. There's a ferry at the pier, and there's an archway on the opposite bank. You can take photos when you step ashore. Don't miss the snacks in Old Street. Zhouji's meatballs are famous, affordable and delicious. You can also try Lingnan herbal tea, Guangxi's sour wild tea, and sweet tofu pudding. The sunset over Old Street is magnificent. Highly recommended! #FoodExplorationNotes #SceneryOnTheRoad
