", a clear and authentic Xiguan accent, both affinity and infectious; the aunt who collects the table and collects the bowl is even more eye-catching, and when she sees someone with children, she will carefully say, "You go to the queue, I will help you look at the thin road."

pit is a common name for Cantonese toilets. And pit powder, the real name of the store is probably many people do not know, although know its real name, really very few, and the source of its name, because there is a public toilet next to the store, the location of the store is less, everyone moved to the outside next to the public toilet next to the empty seat to eat, and then everyone called it pit powder. Although the public toilets have been demolished for a long time, the pit powder eaten around the public toilets is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
In the rapid development of Guangzhou City, can survive from the last century to the present old shops have been very few, the competition in the catering industry is cruel, can the old brands survive only by relying on publicity and the feelings of diners?
Only the food is prepared to eat is fundamental, have you ever eaten pit powder in Guangzhou? How does it taste? If the public toilets were still there like a few years ago, would you still try them?
This shop is not open every day, and from the morning to line up until lunchtime, sitting next to me uncle said: "In fact, the most touching place for me, the pho here has a unique rice flavor, which is often eaten when I was a child, and now it is difficult to eat, and the belly juice is fished and eaten, and every bite is full of childhood memories." ”
