The one-day table of Nanjing people can't get around the duck blood vermicelli, leather belly noodles and soup buns.
In the eyes of the "Ten Grade Scholars of Soup Buns", the soup buns with thin skin and full of juice are by no means equivalent to small dumplings, and the "inverted steaming method" of many old shops is a distinctive edible feature of Nanjing.
▲ The soup bun with the "belly button eyes facing down" has a more cute and cute appearance.
Knowledge points get, but where to eat? Chaotiangong West Street proudly raised his hand: This question I will!
On the left, he embraces Yin's soup bun and his right hugs the chicken soup bun. This is not the end, the Spring Soup Bun in the middle of the street is secretly poking and poking and competing with the two big brothers for the C position!

A popular soup bun shop from outside
In Nanjing, the inclusive urban temperament never excludes the four flavors, and delicious food is king.
The owner of Yingchun Soup Bun is surnamed Qin, and in 2000, he and his family came to Nanjing from Yangzhou to make a living and opened this soup bun shop.
▲In the old Chaotiangong West Street, yingchun soup buns are integrated with other storefronts, which is not an eye-catching.
Identifying the location of the Spring Soup Bun, the most obvious sign is the crowd queuing at the entrance of the store.
A small shop is divided into two, on the left is the bun window, people next to people, there are always takeaway brothers to come and go; on the right is a dine-in space, suitable for nearby residents to sit leisurely.
▲ Diners are not in a hurry to order in the aisle, and then sit in the middle of the room with a hole in the sky.
Even more interesting are the people on both sides greeting. Wen Tun's husband and wife are in charge of the steamed bun shop, while Ma Li's daughter takes care of the dine-in business.
Although the personalities are very different, the family is always harmonious and harmonious, so that everyone can also feel comfortable!

Great for an affordable breakfast
Because most of the business is early, yingchun soup buns have opened their doors at five o'clock in the morning.
To this end, the family gets up at two o'clock in the morning every day to prepare the filling, but every time they see them, they are full of laughter and do not see any tired looks.
▲ Unveil the steaming steamer and kick off the day.
If you want to talk about the sign in the store, it must be a soup bun of 11 yuan a cage. This price is not eaten in many chain stores, but it can be stabilized into the first-class echelon regardless of appearance and taste.
Not the usual inverted button shape in Nanjing, Yingchun still follows the traditional practice of Yangzhou soup buns. Lifting the thin dough crust, the soup also shakes, but it does not easily break through.
Take a bite, the dough is chewy, and the rich and slightly sweet soup rushes into the mouth and presses against the upper mouth wall. The filling is fresh and firm, the meat is thick but not greasy, and the taste is long.
▲ The secret spicy oil in the shop was eaten out early in the morning, and I could only imagine the happiness of the spicy taste in my mouth.
If you want to try different flavors, we recommend the double-style recipe for soup buns and steamed dumplings. The price of the two is the same, and it can be half a cage at each point.
Compared with the soup buns, the mushroom three fresh steamed dumplings in the shop are inferior, but the combination of mushrooms and meat fillings is fresh but not dull, and it is very delicious to eat.
▲ Similarly, the filling of steamed dumplings is very filling.
In addition to the above mentioned, roasted wheat can also be called the "three noodles" in the shop.
The burnt wheat is the size of a child's fist, but it is only 1.5 yuan. The shiny glutinous rice grains support the dough "bumpy and convex". The sweet and sticky filling has a hint of saltiness, and the large pieces of meat are really hidden in the middle.
▲ The average person eats one is absolutely enough.
At the shop, I also tasted the long-lost peppery soup, which is said to have been the last of the day.
In the large bowl of blue flowers, the ingredients of the peppery soup are really rich: bean skin, enoki mushrooms, ginger shreds, kelp, peanuts, tofu, vermicelli, sesame seeds... It was thick and hot, and the stomach of the drink was hot.
▲ The bowl of peppery soup is almost the size of a steamer, and the portion is full.
One group of people finished eating and left, and another group of people quickly sat down in the store.
At this time, I understood why I arranged for my young daughter to be in charge of the dine-in area, she was like a warm little sun, familiar with the tastes of each old customer, and cared about the health of the elderly in small talk.
In addition, her mind is also very agile, although everyone is eating the payment, she can always accurately report what everyone ordered and the total amount, and then smile to welcome them next time.
Think about it carefully, the friendly service attitude is also the biggest secret weapon of welcoming spring in addition to food!
Winter is coming, everything is collected, only the appetite is growing.
The steaming spring ushered in more diners and the spring that will eventually come.
Next time if you are also in Chaotiangong West Street, come here to enjoy a warm breakfast time!
