文德桥·金陵茶楼(夫子庙店)

This is the Xianheng Hotel, located at the entrance of Confucius Temple on the Qinhuai River in Nanjing. The decoration is similar to the Xianheng Hotel in Shaoxing, and the layout is also very unique. Although the dishes are classic dishes of old Shaoxing, they have been obviously improved and have the taste of Huaiyang cuisine.

The first three hotels are in Nanjing, which are old shops opened for decades. The earliest one was in Shanghai, and now there are three or four branches. I went to check it out, and it is really as famous as it is said to be. The dishes there are very spicy and the stinky tofu is also delicious.

Xianheng Hotel is the most famous century-old restaurant in Shaoxing, a wine country. It was founded in the Jiawu year of the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. Mr. Lu Xun's novel "Kong Yiji" made Xianheng Hotel famous at home and abroad. The image of Kong Yiji slapping the big coins on the table is vivid. There is also a chain of Xianheng Hotel in Nanjing, with a superior location, good taste, and exquisite storefront, which feels very good.

I originally planned to have dinner at Qinhuai Renjia. After crossing the bridge, I first saw Wuyi Lane and then Xianheng Hotel. I was very excited. Kong Yiji and Fennel Beans immediately came to my mind. Without any hesitation, I decided to have dinner here instead. In order to taste more varieties and not waste food, I ordered a platter of dishes. Although there is no elevator and it is difficult to go upstairs, the night view of Qinhuai River is outside the window on the second floor. It is really the right choice to enjoy the view while eating.

Xianheng Hotel Confucius Temple Branch on the Qinhuai River in Nanjing, sitting by the window on the second floor, tasting Tai Diao Wang, pinching a fennel bean, and admiring the beautiful scenery of Qinhuai River, really feels like being drunk without being drunk. Detailed address: No. 138 Dashiba Street, Confucius Temple, Qinhuai District, Nanjing (near Jiankang Road) Business hours: Monday to Sunday 11:00-21:00 Restaurant environment: Qinhuai River, a century-old store in a Ming and Qing Dynasty building, facing Confucius Temple in the distance.

We ordered 13 dishes for one meal, and the total consumption was 808 yuan, 115 yuan per person, which is very cost-effective! The overall dishes are also very good, but it’s a pity that there are not many Huadiao dishes. I ordered a Huadiao soybean braised palm wings, but the taste is average, not recommended. Apart from that, there are no thunder points, and the service is also attentive and thoughtful, it is worth a visit. △Zaozui Four Flavors The taste is warm and the wine is rich. The shrimp is fresh and crispy, the octopus is refreshing and chewy, fresh and sweet, and it is very suitable for drinking. △Xianheng Four Flavors The candied dates are very sweet, the dried tofu is also good, and the peanuts are also very fragrant. The most amazing thing is the fennel beans! No matter how many ways to write fennel, I just want to know how many kinds of seasonings there are to make the fragrance so rich. △Xianheng stinky tofu The stinky tofu is really stinky, the kind that smells stinky and fragrant, just fried, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the taste is great.

Xianheng Hotel as described by Lu Xun. When I arrived in Nanjing in early spring, I had my first meal at Xianheng Hotel on the Qinhuai River. I chose a seat by the window facing the river so that I could enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Qinhuai River while eating. Cruise ships passed by from time to time, and I thought of Zhu Ziqing's "Qinhuai River in the Sound of Paddles and Lights".

As soon as we arrived at Confucius Temple, we saw the Xianheng Hotel. There were many tourists taking photos here, and they also regarded it as a landscape. We booked a private room on the second floor and ordered their special rice wine, drunken shrimp, drunken crab, and Huixiang beans. Although it is a little expensive, it is really authentic Shaoxing cuisine.
