Authentic Shaoxing local cuisine, delicious and inexpensive, located on Cangqiao Street. Most of the people who go there are returning customers or locals. If you are not a seasoned foodie, it is difficult for foreign tourists to find it. The pork with preserved mustard greens is fragrant and crispy, and it is great to eat with steamed buns. The Shaoxing three fresh dishes are generous and rich. You have to go early for the stinky tofu, otherwise it will be sold out. The stinky dried tofu is also good.
The handsome guy at the homestay specially recommended the old shop in the ancient street. Walking along Cangqiaozhi Ancient Street, I really resisted the temptation of various Internet celebrity old shops all the way, and finally had a perfect meal at the end of the old street, Aqiu Shiwantou. [Environment] It is an old residential house in the market, so the doorway is not big, and there is a world inside. The hall is full of sample dishes. The younger generation of Mr. Aqiu is in charge and is busy writing orders for guests. I am a little overwhelmed standing alone in the full dishes. I want to eat everything, but I only have one stomach. The young boss saw my embarrassment and still received me attentively. Thinking about walking all the way and enduring all the way, I rewarded myself with four signature dishes lavishly. The "Shao-style shrimp balls" were fried to a crisp, but I didn't eat them as a dish because I also ordered rice wine, so I ate them like fried peanuts with wine; "Spiced pork with preserved plums" is a specialty of Shaoxing, and it's also my dish to go with rice. There aren't many pieces of braised pork, but it looks really dark and tastes really good; "Drunken Chicken" Zhejiang drunken chicken is a must-try, it's not as strong as the Shanghai wine lees flavor, but it has a different flavor; "Stir-fried pumpkin vines" Cantonese people don't like to eat without green vegetables. It's the first time I've eaten pumpkin vines, and I didn't expect them to be so crisp and refreshing. In the end, of course, I had a heart but no stomach, so except for the pumpkin vines, I packed up the other three items including the rice wine, and it was awesome.
The first meal in Shaoxing, breaking the past convention, this meal is not too amazing Located on Cangqiaozhi Street, there is an "Ava Village" storefront at the door, which is not very eye-catching A small doorway with two red lanterns hanging on it, and "Recalling Shiwantou, the old Shaoxing dishes" written on the left and right sides Entering the doorway, you can see the introduction of Shiwantou: Every time there is a festive event, the people make a table of ten classic Shaoxing dishes to entertain relatives and friends to celebrate, which means perfection The environment is more like a home-made workshop, an old-fashioned two-story attic, with semi-finished products on the table, and a wooden sign with a cat on the top of the head with dishes and prices written on it It is more casual to dine here, like visiting relatives and friends "Shao-style shrimp balls" ¥25 is the only amazing dish, similar to "noodles with yellow croaker", but the fish is replaced by shrimp, salty and fresh, and chopped green onions enhance the fragrance, it tastes good "Vegetarian roast goose" ¥8, about seven or eight sections, each section contains carrots, diced mushrooms and other vegetarian dishes, a bit like soup Tastes average "Vinegar fish with head and belly" ¥30. I lamented that there was not much fish meat. I couldn't help but think that it was actually cooked with only the fish head, with cooking wine and vinegar. The side dish was white radish, nothing special When paying the bill, I found that disposable bowls and chopsticks cost 3 yuan per person. Later I thought that it might include tea fees, but we didn't drink it A strong Shaoxing-style restaurant with a strong Shaoxing style
------Foodies in Shaoxing------ I've actually had half-pay lunch at Xunbaoji, but my friends have been to this restaurant before, and I'm reluctant to give it up, so I decided to try it again. The environment is already bad, and it rained that day, making the ground even more slippery. The first floor is the ordering area, and you can order dishes by looking at the dishes. The stairs upstairs are steep and slippery. The vegetarian roast goose has a good texture, the bean curd skin has no beany smell, and it absorbs the soup and is very delicious. The Shao-style shrimp balls are fried with the shell, very crispy like pepper and salt ribs, and the braised large intestine has a chewy texture. I prefer the crispy and soft ones. The sour radish and vinegar fish is actually quite special, but the fish pieces have more bones, so I prefer radishes. The taste of this dish is not bad, but I really can't praise the environment. In comparison, I still prefer Xunbaoji. It depends on personal pursuit.
This is the main course after lunch. Although I also feel strange, I forgot why I had to eat it. It seems to be famous, and I think Shaoxing will not come here all the time, so I also pulled this one out. The facade of this restaurant is really different from Xunbaoji. It is a restaurant that you will miss if you don't pay attention. It makes me feel that good wine is not afraid of narrow alleys. Because my food is delicious, you will definitely come. If my facade is not good, you will also try hard to find it. After entering this restaurant, you will find that the ordering area is below, and it feels dark and chaotic. 77 is responsible for ordering, and we are responsible for eating, so we quickly went to the second floor, but their memory is not bad. The dishes were all served correctly. I don't remember the specific taste, but I just think there is no memorable dish, it is quite average.
