夏雨路轩特色餐厅

We found this restaurant based on reviews. We saw that most other restaurants in the village were not doing well, but this one had the most customers. The environment is also good, with several halls. From the layout, we can see what it looks like when business is booming. We ordered a set meal for two, a chicken soup with Panax notoginseng, a terraced fish and a stir-fried vegetable. We can tell that the chicken and fish are raised by farmers, and the taste is different from the feed chicken in the city. The soup is delicious, and the fish meat is very tender and belongs to ecological fish. It tastes better after adding the seasoning chili dip in the water dish. The portion is also large, and the two of us couldn't finish it even if we ate it hard.

🌸 Qiubei Slow Time: This Artistic Restaurant Embraces the Poetic Lifestyle of the Yi People Wandering through the streets of Qiubei, Yunnan, I was suddenly captivated by the sound of a pipa, mingled with the aroma of Sichuan peppercorns. Looking up, I saw a few camellias poking out from the white walls beneath the wooden sign "Xia Yu Lu Xuan." This restaurant, renovated from a traditional Yi "yi yiyin" (a Chinese seal) dwelling, still bears flame patterns carved by Qing Dynasty craftsmen on its beams. A century ago, this inn, a resting place for caravans, now wafts the aroma of coffee. 🍃 A New Soul in an Ancient Building The owner, Ashima, a Yi woman who returned from studying abroad, has placed her grandmother's loom in the center of the courtyard. The fern pattern on the indigo-dyed tablecloth creates a subtle dialogue with the glass curtain wall. The waiter, wearing a modified double-breasted embroidered jacket, handed me a menu that turned out to be a parchment notebook—the first page of which contained the century-old recipe for "Qiubei Chili Stir-fried Cured Pork." The second-floor terrace offers a view of the karst peaks of Puzhehei outside the city. One of the tables is repurposed from the old counter where horse caravans settled accounts. 🍜 Taste Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum The must-order "Sanqi Steamed Chicken" is served in a pottery jar that replicates unearthed cooking utensils from the Dian Kingdom of the Western Han Dynasty. The waiter will remind you to first ladle the soup and offer it to heaven and earth—a simplified version of the Yi people's "fire offering" ritual. Interestingly, the "buckwheat cake dipped in honey" is served on an irregular slab of stone. The waiter chuckled and explained, "For generations, the people of Qiubei have used the shale of the Red River Gorge as their plates!" 📖 The owner's hidden Easter egg When checking out, I discovered a "story wall" next to the cashier, covered with old photos: faded images of horse caravans stopping here in the 1950s, and a meal receipt left by a French explorer in 1983. The most surprising gift was the gift given with a purchase of a certain amount—a linen bookmark printed with an excerpt from the Yi ethnic group's creation epic, "Mei Ge." On the back, it turned out to be the restaurant's exclusive hand-painted "Puzhehei Wild Mushroom Picking Map." At Xiayu Luxuan, dining becomes a ritual that transports you through time. As the setting sun gilds the rammed earth walls, the sound of a moon guitar suddenly fills the courtyard—it turns out that every evening at 6 p.m., the owner plays "Axi Dances Over the Moon." At that moment, I finally understood that so-called artistic style is simply about living a life that reflects tradition. #YunnanNicheTravel #YiCulturalExperience #AncientArchitectureRenovation #IntangibleHeritageCulinary #PuzheheiSurroundings
