Zou-Ma-Lou Restaurant

The Zoumalou Restaurant in the ancient county town of Cicheng, Ningbo, has a very good geographical location. The restaurant faces Cihu Lake and is surrounded by lush green trees and swaying wild flowers. It is a great pleasure to enter and exit the restaurant. The wine lees walnut soup is delicious, and the osmanthus fried rice cake is fragrant. It is a wonderful meal.

The hotel is right by the Cihu Lake, with a unique geographical location! Come to Cicheng for a stroll and have dinner here! Several special dishes in the hotel are very good! We prefer Ningbo smoked fish, pork elbow, river shrimp... small snacks glutinous rice balls, fermented walnut soup are great!

A well-known old restaurant in Cicheng Ancient Town. If you come late at noon, you have to wait in line for a table. The food is all local specialties, and they are fresh. The dishes are served very quickly, and they should be prepared in advance and just fried. The price is not expensive, I can recommend it.

I like this restaurant very much. The environment is very good and the dishes are delicious. Chicken soup, copper basin river shrimp, bayberry dew, sugar rice cake are all classics. Every dish is delicious. I will go there again in the future. It's worth it.

I hesitated for a long time about this restaurant because it is more than 20 kilometers away from Ningbo High-speed Railway Station. Baidu Map shows that it takes 1 hour and 50 minutes to take the bus. Finally, I decided to call a special car. Six people just need a GL8, and the total cost is 166 yuan. There was a promotion of charging 100 yuan and getting 100 yuan free, which is half price. It took 40 minutes to get there. It was easy and convenient. The car was parked outside Cihu Park. I walked in by myself. There was no clear signpost in the restaurant. I asked the security uncle inside and he showed me the way very enthusiastically. When we arrived, it was close to 11 o'clock. There were basically no people in the restaurant, but some tables were reserved. If you come at 12 o'clock without reservation, there will be no seats. Cold-mixed Malan, I don't have a special preference for Malan, but theirs is mixed well, and it is very fragrant. Wine lees walnut soup (small), I wanted to order a large portion, but the waiter said that there were six people in me, so a small portion was enough. If you are a person who likes sweets such as fermented rice wine, it is recommended to order a large portion, because it is delicious, not too sweet and has a stronger aroma. Ning-style shredded eel, shredded eel is fried with leeks. There are many onions and leeks in the dish, and the proportion of shredded eel is too small. Spicy Cihu snails, bacon is added to the fried snails. If you taste the bacon, you will be killed by the salty taste, but the snails themselves are not tasty. Secret foot ring, I thought it was a pig's foot, but it turned out to be a pig's trotter. The skin part was cooked very soft and glutinous, the absolute essence, but the lean meat was lacking. Copper basin shrimp, the river shrimp is considered large, fresh enough, and it is relatively less salty than other dishes. Durian pastry, when I ordered it, the waiter reminded me that this one needs to wait for a long time, the durian meat overflowed, like the filling was sandwiched between the pastry. Mochi, this is also a relatively failed snack, the white sesame on the surface is raw, and the filling is a little sweet. You can stroll around Cihu Park after dinner. There is a Minquan Road nearby with many murals, which are literary and fresh.

It is close to Cihu Park. We arrived early at 10:30. I thought I couldn't eat so early, so I went to Cihu Park for a walk. After a walk, I had to line up at 11 o'clock. I looked around inside and found that there were only 4 tables for 2 people, 3 tables for 3-4 people, and 5-6 large tables. The rest were private rooms with a minimum consumption and all set meals. Because there were few tables, we waited for an hour before we were seated. A brief comment: the secret foot ring is the most delicious, with fat and lean meat. People who don't eat fat can accept the fat inside. It has been burned without any greasy feeling. Because I ordered rice cakes, I didn't add rice later. If this soup is with rice, it must be very good. Later, I didn't finish the foot ring, and I packed it back to eat it cold at night. It's also delicious with meat jelly. The copper basin river shrimps are not particularly small. I felt that they were a little light at first, but when I ate the soy sauce later, I felt that they were very tasty. The saltiness of the soy sauce and the sweetness of the shrimps were so delicious that I couldn't stop eating. I also ordered shepherd's purse rice cake, smoked fish, and vegetables, which were quite average. The rice cakes were good, but the shepherd's purse was too light and had a grassy smell. There were rice cakes for sale in the store, 68 yuan for 5 catties, and then I bought 10 catties of Cicheng rice cakes on Taobao for more than 40 yuan, and the shipping was free. The prices here are really too expensive. It's about 150 yuan per person. It's delicious, but the queue is too painful. The store also arrogantly didn't let me get a seat.

I came across the legendary food restaurant "Zou Ma Lou" in Cicheng, so I went in for a quick bite. I ordered a few special dishes, and a pot of red date wine was a perfect match! P.S. Zouma Lou was originally the former residence of the financier Ge Shenmu. The word "Zou Ma" may seem simple, but it actually means that its owner is proud of his life!
