wangxingji wonton, a famous snack in Wuxi, Jiangsu province, was founded in 1912. The snack skin is thin, crisp and tough, the soup is thick and mellow, and the meat stuffing is delicious. Founded in 1913, Wuxi Wang Xingji, a time-honored Chinese brand, is the first batch of "Chinese famous restaurants" in China. It is famous for its long history, outstanding reputation, distinctive features and high quality, and is famous at home and abroad, and has a high reputation in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. Wang Xingji is good at carefully managing the traditional famous dishes of Xibang. The series of "Chinese famous snacks" are traditional snacks such as Wuxi steamed buns, Wang Xingji wonton, fancy pastry and cake dough, which have a unique technology, exquisite materials and a long reputation. Wang Xingji's three fresh wonton and fresh meat steamed buns have won many honorary titles such as "Jinding Award" and "Chinese Famous Snacks". Wang Tingan (1891-1966), the founder of Wang Xingji, was born in Tangtou, outside the North Gate of Wuxi, Jiangsu Province. Tangtou was rich in silk thread for sewing clothes, and every household made a living by raising silkworms and sewing thread. The Wangs are very poor, with only three acres of barren land, so they can't make a living. Wang Tingan had to go to Wuxi to make a living. He first cooked in a pawnshop. Wang Tingan studied in a private school for a year and a half. He had some culture and liked to eat wonton when he was very young. He usually liked to watch wonton stalls and shops make wonton. Since his father cooked in Shanghai and his brother-in-law cooked in Xifu, a big family in Wuxi, he also had spirituality in this field since he was a child, which is particularly easy to study. His wife Zhou, a native of Lihuazhuang, North Gate, Wuxi, is rich in Zizania latifolia. She has been doing fried dough sticks business with her parents in Wuxi since she was very young. Because of Wang Tingan's stubborn temper, he often has conflicts with the pawnbroker. Therefore, she quit the job of cooking in the pawnshop and set up a wonton stall on her own with the help of her wife. At that time, there was only one stove and several door panels, which was a very humble wonton stall. However, Wang Ting 'an had a good eye and set up this stall at Sheng Xiang Kou, where there are many people coming and going, and it is very close to the park and Chong'an Temple. Many people passing by will patronize this small wonton stall, so business is good. [5]
In 1922, Wang Ting 'an officially opened a wonton shop in the north of Park Road and the south of the park, named Wang Xingji. When it first opened, there were only four tables, and besides selling wonton, it also sold steamed buns (steamed buns). From this, Wang Xingji became famous, and Wuxi, Suzhou and Shanghai were well known.
