In addition to the ten scenic spots of the West Lake in Hangzhou, the large and small temples scattered on the shores of Xizi Lake are also a beautiful landscape, and the Lingyin Temple, Taoguang Temple, Yongfu Temple, etc. These ancient monasteries have attracted many tourists and citizens to play and relax. Some time ago, the newly opened café of Yongfu Temple was on fire, there were many citizens who came to punch the clock, and even the grinders in the store were on strike because of overload, and the hourly news Hangzhou foodies made a special experience report (poke here for review).

In fact, many monasteries in Hangzhou have formed a unique Vegetarian culture in Hangzhou while inheriting Buddhist culture and promoting the image of Hangzhou city. Among them, I have to mention the vegetarian roast goose of Jingci Temple.

Jingci Temple, known locally as Jing Temple, was founded in the Five Dynasties Wu Yue Kingdom period, when it was well-known because of the Jigong monks and the "Nanping Evening Bell" that resounded in the sky. Different from the bustling Lingyin Temple and the Caishen Temple, which are bustling with tourists, and the Jingci Temple, which is located on the south bank of the West Lake, most of the visitors are locals and look much quieter.

There is a small box room on the west side of the temple, and there is a table at the door, selling vegetarian food made by the monks in the temple, such as vegetarian roast goose, dried brine beans, and so on. The vegetarian roast goose of Jingji Temple is made of vegan method, fresh salad oil that is changed daily, and fried in a pot and sold now. Sometimes it sells too fast, and pilgrims have to stand at the door and wait for the next pot of vegetarian roast goose to be fried. When you first get your hands on it, the golden vegetarian roast goose is hot, the aroma of the fried is overwhelming, the juice is flavored, and you can also eat the slightly crisp and tough taste of the fried bean skin, and after it is cold, the taste turns into sticky. Vegetarian roast goose 8 yuan a piece, dried tofu 3 yuan a string.

It is difficult to say when the vegetarian roast goose of Jingji Temple was on fire, and every time I came to buy it, there were always pilgrims in front of me. Aunt Zhou, who lives in Jianqiao, said that she had to come to the Jing Temple every fifteenth day of the first month, in addition to praying for blessings and burning incense, there was also an important reason to buy the vegetarian roasted goose of the Jing Temple, and did not buy much, two at a time, and the family liked to eat.

The staff who sell dried tofu and vegetarian roast goose in the box room told us that the vegetarian roast goose of Jingji Temple is now supplied every day, unlike before, it is necessary to pinch the first fifteen to relieve the hunger. However, because the labor is limited, so the daily stock of vegetarian roast goose is also limited, generally speaking, it is sold out at 7:30 in the morning, and it is sold out at about 2:00 pm.
