Before I came here, I said that I could bump into celebrities in Changsha, but in the end... After all, legends are just legends. However, as a city with distinctive regional characteristics in the country, Changsha's food has become Changsha's most distinctive business card.
If we want to distinguish Chinese cities in today's homogeneous cities, the most obvious thing is the difference in dishes. So to unlock a city, we must first unlock the city's food. I begged local friends to take me around Changsha for a few days and tasted some Changsha flavors. If I can't meet stars in Changsha, come and meet delicious food!
Breakfast in Changsha was awakened by a bowl of powder. I got up early today and went to this noodle shop recommended by a friend to have a "Changsha-style" morning. This stop is on the list of noodles given to me by almost all my friends in Changsha, the Bus Xincun Powder Shop. It was opened in an old community, but it did not affect his popularity at all. You need a little courage to come to eat at meal time, because you will queue up until you have no temper. Changsha people pay attention to different sizes when eating flour, and recruiting beef sizes is definitely the first choice for newcomers.
The soup is delicious, the rice noodles are smooth, and the beef is soft and rotten. A friend said that Changsha people generally only eat kuanfen because kuanfen will absorb more soup and make it more delicious. When eating Changsha rice noodles, you must master the skill of "squeaking", inhale quickly, and put the flour into your mouth. This way of eating is the most authentic Changsha way to eat!
Wenmiaoping fried
A friend said that fried was the snack that impressed her most when she was studying. As long as she had two steel coins in her pocket, she would buy two skewers on the way to school to satisfy her cravings.
After shopping around the Huangxing Road Pedestrian Street, a friend took me to Wenmiaoping Zhaizhao, a fried goods shop at the entrance of Changjun Middle School. The door of the store is not big and the decoration is simple, but a friend said that this is the "standard" of a delicious fried goods shop.
Before coming to Changsha, I never thought that vegetables could be fried with meat. Here, everything can explode. After being taken out of the pan, the sauce prepared by the store is topped with, and the vegetables have the same rich flavor as the meat. The sweetness in the vegetables meets the spicy flavor of the sauce, so I can only close my eyes and say, it's so delicious!
Jinji Tangyoutuotuo
The students in Changjun are so happy! Many small shops at the door are Changsha specialty snacks. The shell thickness and sugar content of this sugar-oil lump are just right, so it will not be sweet, but also keep the lump crispy and delicious. With one bite, the sweetness seems to flow into my heart. Although the appearance is a bit crude, the taste is definitely not simple! The endless stream of people lining up explains everything!
Hunan Style Barbecue--Jiushi Barbecue
How can a carnivore miss the famous barbecue? This barbecue restaurant that a friend brought me to is said to be a restaurant with a very good reputation in Changsha, so I was looking forward to it before coming. A friend said that in the past, old shops in Hexi often had to queue for an hour to get food. Fortunately, many new stores have been opened recently, so there is no need to wait too long.
Unlike Japanese-style Korean barbecue, Hunan barbecue shops will cut the barbecue into small pieces and marinate it in advance. When I saw that all the dishes were wrapped in a layer of chili powder, I couldn't help but think: Changsha, you are indeed you! But when you really eat it in your mouth, it actually tastes just right. The meat is well marinated and not very spicy. The pork belly is served with the dry dishes in the store and rolled with a piece of lettuce, and it tastes just right!
A friend said that when you come here to eat leeks, you must ask for two extra eggs and spread them on top of the leeks. The smooth and tender eggs paired with spicy sizzling leeks really surprised me.
Changsha also has wedding tea! However, there were still a little too many people in line! In addition, how can I get less of the handle of Changsha milk tea-Tea Yeyue? The differences between the several categories of tea Yeyue I have drunk are not too big. There is a high probability that I won't step on thunder. The top priority is still Youlan Latte. I listened to my friends and asked for double cream, and I would have double happiness! It's just that the straw is a little difficult to scoop the cream. If you run into a store with a lot of people, don't worry. In the May Day business district, there is a tea store waiting for you almost every 50 meters.
On the last day, a friend said to take me for a change, and we came to a Japanese food store at the south gate.
(Meat Donut Meat Theater) The dishes look very exquisite, but they are too different from the Hunan cuisine we have eaten these days. Hunan cuisine is unrestrained and free, and after eating Hunan cuisine for a few days, I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable when I come back to eating Japanese dishes: ) But my tongue just experienced the baptism of wine and barbecue yesterday, and other meats are a little boring here... This may be the charm of Changsha's flavor that makes people forget about.
If you only have a two-day-three-day short trip and want to feast, Changsha is definitely a must-miss food paradise ~
