There are often people from other places who question the foodie,"Does Changsha really have specialties?"! As the most eater city in the country, 80% of Changsha's delicious food cannot be taken away.

But if you say that Changsha has no specialties, the people of Changsha will definitely not agree! I think this guide is really needed for you who are going home during the New Year ~~(Without saying much, get on the bus!)

NO.1--Old Street Fish Mouth

If you want to say what Changsha's most famous specialty is, of course it must be the old street fish mouth! It is said that in Changsha, one in six people has eaten Lao Jie fish mouth. If you want to ask what restaurants there are in Changsha, apart from the lobster restaurant, it is undoubtedly the "Old Street Fish Mouth". This is not only the name of a restaurant, but also a taste created by the restaurant, a brand, and a taste that Changsha people blurt out.

Whether they are chefs or waiters, they all wear ancient costumes. It is truly the style of the Republic of China. Eating here gives me a feeling of traveling through.

The special dish here is of course Lao Jie Yuzui, but there are also many other delicious dishes, such as honeycomb corn, hand-shredded duck, salted egg yolk eggplant, etc., which are all popular dishes here.

As the soul of Hunan cuisine in Changsha, Yuzui is naturally a gourmet business card belonging to Changsha. It is truly worthy of Changsha's specialty No. 1!

NO.2 Pastry-Sullivan

Founded in 1947, Sullivan is famous around the world for "making birthday cakes for Chairman Mao." At its peak, the popularity was more popular than the current Chao-Chang mooncakes.

Sullivan's wick cake is a little sweet at first taste. You can eat obvious sugar particles, but it is easy to addicted! The cakes have a special fragrance that makes them moist and cool in your mouth. In addition to being shaped like a wick, it can also ignite like a wick.

The pepper oil-scented small hemp flowers, mung bean cakes, and crispy candies are very pleasing to buy and give to parents and the elderly. There is also osmanthus sugar, which is wrapped in a layer of white sesame seeds, but inside is actually powdery. It is stuffed into the mouth with a puff, like a celestial girl spreading flowers. It is interesting!

NO.3 Soiled duck with soy sauce--Jinyuanyuan

The first brand of the specialty salted duck with soy sauce that can be seen everywhere in Changsha is Jinyuanyuan. Jinyuanyuan has many branches and franchisees, with varying reputation. However, this one is located in Zhongshan Pavilion (near Wuyi Square), which is the main store. It not only has more varieties and better taste than the branch, but is especially famous for its pickled salted duck.

There is an endless stream of people who come to buy ducks every day, and foreign guests will also bring a few pickled salted ducks as specialties. The vacuum-packed soy salted duck did not lose its original flavor. It looks dry and hard, but it tastes very biting. It is not firewood at all. It has a little spicy aftertaste. This is the delicious part of the sauce salted duck.

In addition to soy cured duck, the store mainly sells fresh stewed meat. You can take away some toothpicks, beef, yuba and lotus root slices to satisfy your cravings on the train. As for meat dishes such as duck breast meat, duck tongue, and duck wings, they can all be made into vacuum packaging, which is quite considerate for food from other places.

NO. 4 Spicy-Guixiang South County Spicy Pork

Do you know what the most traditional spicy food of Hunan people is? Ma! Spicy! Meat! Spicy meat is divided into two major schools: Changde and Yiyang. Changde's meat is vegetarian spicy meat (made from dried beans), and Yiyang's meat is authentic meat.

This shop is exactly what Yiyang does. The spicy pork made with tenderloin is not as dry and sweet as pork jerky in Xiamen and Zhejiang, but has a Maotai-fragrant taste. A thin piece covered with spicy sauce and sesame seeds. It tastes very spicy. It is a very excellent "snack at hand" when watching TV and playing on your mobile phone. It is very satisfying ~

NO.5 Dry goods

As a magical city, Changsha's vegetable market not only contains a lot of delicious food. You can also buy cured fish, bacon, and very distinctive roasted fish from Xiangxi.

cured meat is Hunan's signature specialty. Smoked bacon, cured sausage, and cured fish can be steamed and boiled, and it is extremely delicious when paired with dried radish stir-fried.

Nanmenkou and the Huachi Vegetable Market are old residential areas, where there are all kinds of dry goods such as roasted fish, smelly cat fish, cured meat, etc. Sifangping Vegetable Market is home to Liuyang specialties, so if you want to buy dry goods, the vegetable market will start!

The above are the tips for today's specialties. Due to the limited space, I will not introduce Wugang Xianggan, Liuyang Douchi, Baisha River Black Tea, Sesame Bean Tea, Lei Tea, as well as Lao Baisha's cigarettes and Baisha's wine. Next time I have the opportunity, I will tell you one by one! I just want to say: Changsha has a lot of delicious food that can be taken away, and a lot of delicious food that cannot be taken away. One day in Changsha, one day to eat well! Because there are so many delicious foods in Changsha!
