There is no doubt that everyone recognizes the many cuisines in Tianjin, and most of the cuisine in Tianjin is very grounded, basically delicious at a good price, like buns, pancake fruits, fried cakes, noodles, gaba dishes, etc. Basically a few dollars or a dozen yuan can be eaten. To eat authentic Tianjin cuisine, there is no need to run to the luxurious business district, in fact, many Jincheng cuisine is hidden in the city.
Today I will introduce to you an old bun shop in Tianjin that is loved by the locals, hidden in the deep alley of the city, but it is definitely a fulfillment of the truth that the wine is not afraid of the deep alley, although this shop is not in a particularly conspicuous business circle, there is no environment to speak of, from the inside to the outside are full of pyrotechnic gas, some people who are particularly "exquisite" are difficult to swallow that kind of, but with the tianjin old flavor of the bun business has been hot for more than 30 years.
His family's buns have meat stuffing and vegetarian filling, traditional pork stuffing four pieces of five one two, pork leek stuffing four yuan one or two, vegetarian bun 1.5 yuan a, there are leeks, cabbage, fennel, bean sprouts four varieties. In addition to buns, his family also has wontons and wontons, hand-rolled noodles, millet porridge, etc., selling not many varieties, mainly buns, and only buns during the epidemic.
The bun is typical of thin skin and large filling, picked up like a lantern, put down like a white chrysanthemum, the color and flavor are complete, the meat filling is salty and fragrant but not greasy, which is what Tianjin old-fashioned buns should look like. The size of the bun is larger than that of the average bun shop, and the filling is also very large. Meat bun is the traditional pork scallion bun, a bite down on the oil, full of aroma, and the taste is slippery and rich, this price such buns, in contrast, has been very affordable, generally a person two buns a bowl of porridge is satisfied. One of my favorites in the stuffed buns is jinmi vegetarian, which is authentic traditional and old flavor. The skin of the bun is made of noodles and is very fluffy, but I personally prefer half-haired noodles, which are more powerful to eat.
His family's big stuffed wonton is also quite large, as big as a small steamed bun, you can see the meat, full of a bowl is very solid. Millet porridge and other home is not much different, boiled more thick, drink up with the aroma of millet, the price is not expensive is 2 yuan a bowl, pickles are free, but slightly salty, with millet porridge and buns to eat just right.
Seriously, when it comes to Tianjin buns, many people only know that dogs do not pay attention, in fact, in the hearts of the old Tianjin people, many inconspicuous bun shops are their favorites, such as this bun shop, although the fame and environment are not as tall as dogs, and even because there are not enough customers, the service is a bit skimpy, but many local people still think that this bun is better than the dog ignores. So the guests who come to his house to buy, most of them are locals, many are elderly uncles and aunts, and they all buy a cage of drawers at a time, which shows how enthusiastic the old Tianjin people are for his buns, so his family is always overcrowded when he eats, the wine is not afraid of the deep alley, but afraid of eating too many people to be busy, this shop is typical.
