Today, Thursday, accompany a new Guangzhou native (originally from Hunan, do not speak Cantonese) to Xihua Road to explore food, looking for the taste of the city in old Guangzhou. Today I want to go to several stores recommended by an alumni who has lived in Xihua Road for more than ten years.
The first stop, three and gourmet eat intestinal noodles. From Renmin Road, walk two or three hundred meters to arrive, this is an old neighborhood shop, see a lot of aunts and mothers in the vicinity packing intestinal powder and porridge and the like. The shop has two shops, one is a pay and operate room, where intestinal powder is made on site, and the other is a dine-in place with air conditioning. This is not a brat sausage, it is a drawer type of sausage powder, but it is not an ordinary kind, it is a relatively large drawer machine, I saw it for the first time.
I ordered the signature beef sausage and salty pancakes, and my friend ordered shrimp sausage and pearl pork intestine powder. Salty pancakes are only 3.5 yuan cheaper, much cheaper than the 6 yuan sold on The Road of Civilization, and it is very authentic, crispy and thin, sweet and not greasy, it feels better than the taste of many tea houses in Guangzhou, this price is commendable and highly recommended.
Beef intestines of the intestinal powder is very thin, feel like a piece of paper, also very slippery, the sauce of the intestinal powder is very fresh, a little sweet, not very salty, beef tender, the key is that the powder is super thin to eat to feel very good, this intestinal powder feels delicious may also be because the soy sauce is relatively well prepared.
Friend ordered shrimp sausage he thinks the shrimp is too salty, he naturally thinks it should be fresh shrimp, may not be used to eating shrimp rice, I tried it, the taste is OK, but it may not be quite in line with his taste. Pork intestine pearl powder really added pig intestines, pig intestines are also very thin and clean, but the sauce I think is too sweet, not very like, pork intestine powder feels general. Beef intestinal powder 9.5 yuan, shrimp feed intestines 8 yuan, pork intestine powder 12 yuan, mass consumption, not expensive, no wonder so many people come to pack.
Leaving Sanwa, we continue to the next stop, Hatsing Snack Shop in Ichitsu. The two of us were road fools, followed the navigation and went backwards, and finally walked around Sima Street, and saw another shop recommended by alumni on Sima Street: Duofu Food Hall, which is said to be famous for eating raw fish, try it next time.
After walking around, I finally came to the Hexing snack shop in the alley of the residential area, an old shop that mainly sells semen.
Because we have just eaten, so we ordered a small portion, only 5 yuan (6 yuan in the middle, 7 yuan in the large portion), with a disposable barrel like the size of the barrel of instant noodles to pack, the small portion is not small, and the 13 yuan that Wenming Road eats is comparable, it seems that the things in the old city are cheaper. I saw a guest eat a large portion of it in a lunch box, which is really too much (I'm sure I can't finish it).
Hexing's semen powder is also thick, the powder is very soft and sticky, the soup feels lighter than the Xiguanse powder on Wenming Road, the ingredients of lard residue, mushrooms, shrimp are more sufficient, more suitable for my taste, and can add spicy pickles by themselves, my friends have added a lot, of course, the cost performance is also higher, no wonder so many classmates and friends recommend that this is the best taste of sesame powder in Guangzhou, it is indeed worthy of the name.
When we were still eating powder, a local friend from Guangzhou had already arrived at the restaurant for lunch, a Sichuan restaurant that had been open for more than 20 years: Hongcheng Sichuan Cuisine. Hunan friends said not to eat Sichuan cuisine as soon as they heard it, but when they heard me say that it has a history of more than 20 years, he immediately said that he went again, after all, a restaurant that can open for more than 20 years is still very attractive. A friend in Guangzhou said that he had come to this store 20 years ago, but his memory was a little blurred.
The four orders are all signature dishes:
[Sauerkraut perch] is very large, a thick layer of peppers on it, fish and sauerkraut is still very sufficient, as a representative of Sichuan cuisine, but also the signature of this shop, or very good, sea bass is very smooth and tender, sauerkraut refreshing.
【Boiled beef】 Beef is good, spicy and flavorful, but it feels like the powder is a little too much.
[Mapo Tofu] One person only took one bite, maybe it may not be quite right for our taste, it feels average, maybe the braised Japanese tofu we originally ordered will be more delicious.
[Mao Blood Wang] is also a big share, I think the hair blood inside is the best to eat, Hunan friends like to eat the bean sprouts inside, of course, and I ate in Chongqing Mao Blood Wang there is still a certain gap.
Overall evaluation: Even if it is a civilian Sichuan restaurant, we eat less Sichuan cuisine, and we do not feel that there is a very special place, and it is a miracle to be able to open for more than twenty years. Pay 255 yuan, this price we prefer to eat Cantonese food.
At the table, Guangzhou friends told us the story of Xihua Road that year, about ten or twenty years ago, there was a very strong bar on the other side of Guangfu Road, many people would come to Xihua Road to eat supper after the bar was dashing, porridge noodle rice, beef hot pot, all kinds of food stalls, Sichuan cuisine and Hunan cuisine, etc. were readily available, there were also a lot of taxi drivers to come here for supper, basically this side of the supper stall can be opened to three or four o'clock, which should be the most prosperous time at night on Xihua Road that year. Later, after Tianhe flourished, this scene slowly disappeared.
Coming out of the red city, we turned around, passing by the rich and strong fish egg powder and prosperity, today is too full, or don't eat, go to the internet red shop to drink soda bar. From Jinhua Street, we went around Junhe Street, and we came to this well-eaten snack bar
Net red soda is definitely a must, I am lonely and unheard, have not seen, but a bottle of soda sold to ten yuan I think it is also a sky-high price, in contrast, the Asian soda I ordered is only 2 yuan a bottle (Guangzhou people like to drink The sand show), two bottles of net red soda + a bottle of sand show + a cup of salted lemon seven total 31 yuan, not cheap.
Net red soda is the price is expensive, the packaging is special, the taste is added to a variety of flavors of the flavor bar, after trying it will not have the urge to drink a second time. There are also a lot of snacks at this shop, but it feels like nothing special.
Today in Xihua Road all the way to eat, I still like the traditional sausage powder and salty pancakes, and more than 20 years of history of Sichuan restaurants and net red snack bar experience once is enough, the next time or continue to Fangji, Xingxing, Fuji and so on these old shops to try it.
I am the creator of the food field confused wind, welcome to follow me, continue to bring you food to explore the shop, there is an attitude, there are dry goods.
