Just before the National Day, I photographed a food promotion titled "Dagang Eighteen Cuisine" for Dagang Town, Nansha, Guangzhou. It was the first time that I knew and went to this place, which is not far from the sea and close to Shunde. When you eat food, you will fall in love with you. If you make a big wish, you must visit your relatives and friends.
It finally happened not long ago! With daily test +24 hours of nucleic acid negative results for N consecutive days, we drove out in a small car!
After returning safely, I couldn't resist my volcanic desire to share, so I decided to write down every detail of the past two days and wish you a good Amway.

Dagang, Nansha, Guangzhou

Strategy Q A

Why choose Nansha Dagang?

Short distance:

For example, CASH Cash Sister starts from Liurong Road and drives to Dagang in 50 kilometers and 60 minutes; the central Urban area such as Fangcun area is even closer, taking about 40 minutes to reach it.
For public transportation, you can take the subway to Panyu Square, and you can get there by taxi for about 60 yuan.
Delicious:
The land of fish and rice is intertwined with river networks and coastal areas, and there is an endless supply of all kinds of river fresh seafood; it is close to Shunde, with many good chefs and solid technology.
Economy:
Putting aside the flashy town, all prices are friendly and beautiful.
Security:
In Dagang Town, where the population density is not high, the epidemic prevention work is done carefully and conscientiously, and the nucleic acid results are strictly scanned to check the validity period. The town is surrounded by the national 3A scenic spot "Eighteen Arhats Mountain"(previously called "Lingshan"), and the air is very fresh!

How much did it cost?

- Three dinners + one breakfast, 300 yuan per person.
- Hotel: 450 yuan for a room with a separate soaking pool, 260 yuan for a room with a garden view. The per capita accommodation fee is between 130 and 225 yuan, which is frugal.
- High-speed fare: It is about 18 yuan one way, which is close to negligible for one car.
That is, the total cost is about 500 yuan per person, but you enjoy a short vacation that is full of delicious food and comfortable body and mind!

Can you give me an itinerary?

First of all, this trip will be two days and one night. It will depart from the city at 10 a.m. on Saturday and return at 2:30 p.m. on Sunday. Driving by yourself all the way, eating and drinking everywhere, really without restraint at all.

day1：
10:00 Departure from downtown
Arrive at Dagang Wah Kee Restaurant at 11:00
13:00 Dagang Garden Hotel check in, take a nap
14:30 Walk to Shiba Arhat Mountain Forest Park for a stroll
17:30 Go back to the hotel to rest, soak in the pool freely, and wait for dinner
18:30 Walk to Qiangsheng Restaurant for dinner
Go back to the hotel room after 20:30 for table games and drinks, or go to the hotel's KTV for entertainment
day2：
09:00 Morning tea in Hongyun Building of Yuanlin Hotel. You can get up by yourself if you eat food or go to bed
11:30 Go to Dagang Market to buy seafood, go to Runji Farm to process, and watch the scenery of the river for dinner
13:30 Say goodbye to Dagang's "Fairy Temple": Temple of God of Wealth, and then return home

Because it had started to rain lightly after lunch, we decided not to go to the Temple of God for now. We drove back to Dagang Market to buy hairy crabs with red cream tops for only 25 yuan each as an added "shopping spot" for ourselves, and then returned directly.

I haven't paid homage to the God of Wealth, I haven't eaten Eighteen Arhats Mountain Roast Chicken... There are many wish lists to be completed. Anyway, there will be many opportunities in the future. Dagang, we will always come back. So what are the highlights of the food, accommodation, travel, shopping and entertainment mentioned in the above-mentioned itinerary? Let me explain them one by one.

Live in Dagang Garden Hotel

I knew this hotel because of that food video shoot. Dandan Mountain climbed the mountain and took me to Hongyun Building, a Chinese restaurant in Dagang Garden Hotel. While waiting to be photographed, I took a glimpse of their courtyards, and in a second I saw the classical hotels in the late 1980s and early 1990sˇ

At that time, I was full of veteran cadres 'style and thought that it was at least the pricing of Guangdong Guest House. As a result, I checked Ctrip and was stunned:
Elegant SPA queen bed room with separate soaking pool at this priceˇGarden room with garden and mountain views at this priceˇAt that time, he had made a decision to come and stay.
As soon as I entered the lobby of the Garden Hotel, this imposing dome stunned me for a whileˇBecause I looked carefully at the photos inside the room before check-in (I didn't have the opportunity to open the door to visit before), for a hotel priced so people-friendly, there is actually only the most basic requirement-cleanliness. One of my companions is a senior hotelier. She said: If my expectation score before opening the door is 50 points, then it will be 150 points after opening the door.

It is particularly recommended to book a garden room because this is a newly renovated room in the past two years. Compared with an old hotel that has been completed for more than 30 years, staying in this room type can not only enjoy the nostalgic atmosphere of a classical courtyard, but also live in the simplicity and cleanliness of the new Chinese style.⤵️For example, the garden SPA pool room I stayed in is located on the first floor of Area A of the hotel. The room is not large, but it is designed to be open to the sun and bright, and the white tone can hardly hide the dirt. The zoning is clear, with washing, shower, and toilet separated. The major spare parts are a three-piece set of shampoo, hair care and bath in large bottles, and all small parts are available.
The guest room cooperates with a mattress brand "Australian Kangaroo King"(the minibar also contains the mall QR code of the mattress). All of them use high-quality latex mats, and the pillows are also one latex and one pure cotton. The bedding is densely woven and comfortable. You can't imagine this is a room from a small town hotel priced between 250 and 450!
The bedside USB is available, and the senior hotel friend gave a very appropriate description: I have stayed in many Internet celebrities for 2000 yuan + hotels. If many of the settings are flashy, this hotel is real and practical, basically without false tactics, which allows for space for activities to the greatest extent, and also has some aesthetic elements of "less is more".The SPA room type comes with a round massage pool with an inner diameter of about 120-130cm. It is no problem to soak up two large and two small at most! There are also beach chairs and small tables in the small backyard. When I entered the room, I found that the beach chairs were wet, which shows that the beach chairs were cleaned when the room was cleaned (although they were not dried properly, they were already very sincere).
A water card will be assigned when checking in, and swiping the card will unlock 800 water consumption. According to my friends who have been soaking for two days, the water card can be soaked for about three times, or even four times if it saves, peeling is enough. I only went to it once myself.
Not hot spring water! Not hot spring water! Not hot spring water! Hot water at about 40 degrees is not hot, which is why it can be soaked in water for a long time. It was still drizzling while we were soaking, and the pattering was very romantic. Next time I go there, I plan to bring some essential oils, bath balls, flower petals, etc., and make my own jar of SPA water.Another wonderful thing is that the soaking pools are equipped with cleaners and brushes, as well as high-pressure spray guns. If you don't trust the original cleaning, you can do it yourself-it's so simple and cute, but I think it's very practical anyway.
However, the hotel's SPA room types are limited (about 5 rooms on the first floor on this side). Except for the one at the end (room number 6216, but this backyard will be relatively large), there is a chance to see the small backyard on the leisure platform. Other rooms will be more private due to the terrain.⤵️

Eat at Dagang

Morning Tea·Hongyun Building @ Dagang Garden Hotel·

Hongyun Tower is the Chinese restaurant of Dagang Garden Hotel. It is also an old restaurant very famous in Dagang. Because in a simple town, residents vote with their feet, there is no parking space at all when arriving at 11 noon on Saturday.+ The roadside at the entrance of the parking lot is full of cars. You can probably see how popular it is. Because we lived here, we chose to brush its morning tea.

It has been a long time since I had morning tea in morning tea market! It is said that he used to be a "cart pusher", but now the relationship between epidemic prevention may have changed to this method of self-sealing. However, let alone, this method has not been seen for a long time! It is the most common way to order when I was a girl after CASH.
After doing some "homework", I learned that the fried dough sticks here are very famous. His teammates also took salty pancakes, and the fitness maniac said it had been too long since he had tried breakfast with large carbohydrates! That kind of happiness makes people feel relieved in a second...
The fried dough sticks follow the style of traditional old noodles. The inside is soft and does not have the astringent feeling of chemical hair powder.⤵️Other morning tea snacks can be ordered. Nowadays, when semi-finished products are everywhere and fresh homemade snacks cannot be eaten without a huge amount of money, all sincerity is here! Highly recommend raw porridge! All kinds of raw porridge are cooked carefully.With the group members of the Big Eating King, each person had 5 baskets of snacks and 2 pots of porridge, everyone supported the wall and walked out. In the end, the average person ended up being 53 yuan! I asked if you would accept it! You can also choose Hongyun Lou for dinner. Their roast goose is very delicious! It is also one of the "Eighteen Dishes of Dagang"!

Dinner·Qiangsheng Restaurant·

This restaurant!! It's me!! One of the reasons why I decided to bring relatives and friends back to Dagang!!

Because the food is so delicious!!! I even forgot to take pictures of the environment!-- It's the kind of traditional old restaurant with big halls, big private rooms, and big private rooms with separate toilets.
Back to the dishes. Below are our votes for the best, two of which are "Dagang Eighteen Courses"
White-cut chicken-the skin is crisp and the meat is smooth, not to mention the chewy tip and chicken flavor. Control the heat so that the chicken bones are not red and the meat is not stale. It's really a perfect score for the skill! Dip it with shallot and shredded ginger, you are invincible!
Thousand Silk Hundred Flowers Shrimp Balls-Classical Cantonese cuisine is really difficult to eat now because of too much kung fu.
Use shrimp meat glue made from fresh river shrimps, knead it into meat balls, wrap it with shredded spring rolls, and place it in a low-temperature oil pan to slowly soak and fry. The shrimp meat balls have a hollow space in advance to perfectly contain the fresh shrimp juice that flows out during dipping and frying. First crispy, then elastic, and finally burst into pulp!

Southern dairy pork-Hidden menu, no menu, ask the minister if he has the opportunity to order it, 68 yuan/example. Marinate the pork belly with southern milk and fry it, add it with a slightly sour (I think it has dark plum) sauce, add cucumber and shallot, and wrap it in a hot cake bag and eat together. It's very interesting, and it's different from Mi Yixinji's practice of practicing dairy south dairy meat.
Roast goose and coilia fish, name and praise the steamed coilia fish with olive soy and garlic. The fish has less thorns and the meat is extremely tender!I also ordered a bamboo mutton, radish beef brisket, ginger mustard and hand-beaten fish balls soaked in soup. Praise the fish balls, which are soft and flexible, and are a perfect match for the crispness of watercress!After the meal, the minister also sent a home-made pumpkin cake. The inside is the taste of muffin cake and the bottom is a slightly crispy caramel layer. The explosive happiness makes it difficult not to remember this dish and this restaurant.Because there were a birthday banquet and a wedding banquet on the night we went, the restaurant became noisy. To be honest, my taste is a little lower than when I first came here. Everyone in catering knows that it is a bit of a disadvantage for individual guests to bump into banquets, but it still amazes my friends who came here for the first time. The old-fashioned restaurant has old-fashioned services, and the minister is warm and lovely, and can chat (day). Booking by phone one hour in advance, and the minister left us the largest room for 20 people... empty but fresh and exciting.

Dinner·Huaji Restaurant·

Another decades-old brand located right by the river. Dagang has eighteen dishes. There are many dishes on the list, mainly some traditional craft dishes. Here I also saw the long-lost "duck sausage"-a combination of various cured meats bundled with duck intestines. Click the order here. We ordered 3 duck dumplings to soak the watercress, and the strong flavor was cured.⤵️

The decoration is the resplendent style of traditional Cantonese cuisine old restaurants.⤵️Because we found the 18 dishes of Dagang, we ordered two dishes this time:

Braised squab pigeon-crispy skin, thick meat, and amazing juice! Choose eight pigeons so they are particularly chewy. Seasoning will not be heavy, and I privately think it is much better than famous chain stores.
Huaji Dry Pan-fried Crispy Eel-Dry Pan-fried eel, dry but not firewood, the fish is still tender and tender. Bite open the crispy outer shell and inside is slightly salty and springy snow-white fish. The taste is rich in layers.
In addition to the two main dishes, we also ordered fried eggs with insects, which we rarely eat now! Sweet, fragrant, fat, but not fishy, a small bomb with high protein can be cleared as long as you overcome psychological obstacles.

In addition, Huaji recommends the order of lime ribs, spicy brine goose sausage, homemade floor tofu, and newly reclaimed lotus root and mung bean pot. The hard work is solid, and even if it is not amazing, it will definitely not be shocking and have a memory point.We ordered a little too much for this meal, but the average price of 85 yuan per person was still shocking to all four people.

Dinner·Dagang Market + Runji Farm·

There are quite a few good restaurants in Dagang, but because we had just finished morning tea for lunch on Day2, everyone was a little short of appetite. When I went back to the hotel to take a bath, I suddenly decided that I'd better have a seafood meal-well, I didn't look like a person who had been overeaten at all. So I asked Brother Liang, a local from Dagang, and replied that if you want to eat economically, you can go to the market to buy it yourself, and then go to the farm to process it.
So the party divided into two groups and went all the way to Dagang Market to purchase: Brother Liang recommended the "Sister Shu Seafood Store" located in Dagang Market. We bought 3 kilograms of razor clams, 10 enlarged hairy crabs, and 1.5 kilograms of snails for only 300 yuan! Then, under the leadership of Sister Shu, I went to buy a few blue crabs and a pound of wild large-sized river shrimps! Taking about 600 yuan of seafood, he joined up with the team who ordered home-cooked dishes at Runji Farm in the morning.

Runji Farm is next to the Jiaomen Waterway. It has its own small fish pond and lotus pond. You can imagine that summer must be particularly beautiful. In winter, you can also watch the woods and lotus ponds (although there are no flowers) and eat hot pot. It's quite interesting.
Let's talk about Runji's processing skills first. Except for the soy sauce and razor clams that may be a little burnt because the pan was not cleaned, the rest are normal.
I highly recommend the rare wild river shrimp. It is not the kind of shrimp style shrimp, but the big river shrimp with a real head. It is sweet, crisp and refreshing, and it is wonderful! Of course, the hairy crabs are also amazing, otherwise everyone would not have driven back to Dagang Market after dinner to find Sister Shu to continue purchasing.Compared with seafood processing, Runji's farmhouse dishes are excellent! Steamed chicken on a large plate has sweet skin and crispy skin, and mutton brisket is well-cooked and has a strong Cantonese sauce. There is also braised goose, with the mint leaves on top of it being the finishing touch! I always dislike braised goose meat firewood, but this is the first time I have tasted such tender, smooth and elastic goose meat!After the meal, I also received Lingshan specialty turtle jelly! It's not roasted fairy grass, it's real turtle jelly! The taste of sharing weal and woe is very soothing and soothing.
For a seafood dinner + farmhouse, you only need 96 yuan per person to buy ingredients!!!

Let's go on a hike in the Eighteen Arhats Mountain

During this trip, a friend's hometown was next to the Eighteen Arhats Mountain in Dagang (called Lingshan in ancient times). When we were climbing the mountain on the afternoon of Day 1st, he also shared stories about many ancestors who lived in this mountain temporarily after their death and later moved.

Eighteen Arhat Mountain is a national 3A-level scenic spot. Admission is free. The epidemic prevention regulations can be adjusted in accordance with the guidelines of the gate. Because the Dagang Garden Hotel where we stayed was only 300 meters walking distance from the north gate of Shiba Arhat Mountain Scenic Area, we chose to enter from the main entrance 2 kilometers away (you can drive and have free parking space), and then exit from the north gate. There was no turning back the whole journey.Because of its relatively large scope, Shiba Arhat Mountain is divided into several scenic spots with different themes. For example, there are various flower and fruit forests at the north gate, and Shiba Arhat Pagoda in the central and southern regions. As you walk, you will encounter several small ponds, which are peaceful and beautiful.Come to the Eighteen Arhats Scenic Area-the Eighteen Arhats Pagoda. The tower is 7 stories high and can be climbed to the top by human beings. Climbing and looking up at the beautiful scenery of Dagang, the gentle breeze is quite pleasant. The day when we went was cloudy, and there was a light shower the day after tomorrow. However, after the new rain on the empty mountains, we felt like we were in a different mood.⤵️Looking back at the road from the foot of the tower, I see a lively family with a lush background. Life should be more optimistic! Come on, Guangzhou!⤵️Recommended walking tour time: 2-3 hours

My trip to Dagang is almost done here. In fact, I am usually very lazy when I go on vacation alone, so I can just take a photo on my mobile phone. However, I was deeply impressed by the experience of shooting a food promotion in Dagang last time. I think I need to leave more serious pictures for promotion to be worthy of these delicacies.

When I started writing today, I originally wanted to give me some pictures and texts at random. There were almost a thousand words. In the end, the more I talked, the more I wanted to say, and it was already 5000 words... Thank you for your patience when I saw this. I hope that everyone can also have the opportunity to visit Nansha Dagang, because it is really worth it! After all, Nansha is now also a promising place for the future that national policies focus on.

Today's long and long draft took a lot of effort. Maybe there were some mistakes and mistakes that were too late to correct, or if there were any places where grass was planted or questions, you can tell me in the comment section!
