There are too many delicious foods in Jincheng. As soon as I looked up, all kinds of "snacks" and "big meals" were all over the street, which really mushroomed. So I dare not say that I have eaten all over Jincheng, but I can only say that I have eaten in Jincheng.
When eating in Jincheng, the first thing to do should be to stir-fry bean jelly, which is exactly the same as that introduced in Shanxi TV's Talking about Jincheng. It can be seen that fried bean jelly as a famous food in Jincheng is everyone's consensus. Yellow and white jelly blocks, like jadeite, are piled up in the black pot, trembling and looking so elastic, I really want to open my mouth and take a bite. At this time, you stood in front of the booth and shouted "Fried bean jelly". The stall owner hurried to meet him, smiling, and greeted him here. The other hand was already holding a "shovel" in hand, and the nephrite was distributed in the middle of the pot to pour oil.
There is such a stall fried with bean jelly just outside the north gate of Xinhua Bookstore on Zezhou Road. As long as the shovel of the stall owner moves, the intoxicating fragrance will float all over Fengtai. The People's Square in the center of the city is the oldest and most famous square in Jincheng. Once the largest department store in Jincheng was just south of the square, and there was an alley in the east of the mall. I don't know what it's called. Huimin restaurant in the alley used to be my favorite small restaurant. The store is not big, but the fire in the store is "big", thick and pure. Take a bite, it's soft and delicious. That year, I studied in Jincheng. The food in the school canteen not only tastes bad, but also has a small amount. I can only eat half a full meal. For a young man who is in the growth stage, this kind of life is of course the hardest. Under such circumstances, we found the Huimin Hotel and the fire in the Huimin Hotel, which was not much worse than Columbus' discovery of the New World.
Jincheng South Street is an old street full of buttonwood trees, which used to be the most beautiful and poetic place in my mind. Not far from the corner of South Street, you will see a small hotel under the beautiful buttonwood tree-"Qianjin Hotel", which was later changed into "Overseas Chinese Remittance Store" and later turned into a clothing store. I didn't pay attention to what it looks like now, and I plan to visit it someday, but at that time, it was my imaginary Jincheng. At least, it is "one of the best". Fried Heluo there is my favorite food. I often go through the school gate with my classmates, or run to Qianjin Hotel after self-study in the evening, just to enjoy the delicious fried Heluo there.
Pay one yuan and fifty cents, sit in the restaurant of the hotel, and you can see the operating room of the hotel through the window. At that time, you called the kitchen, said a spoonful of chef stood in front of the stove wearing a white hat, weighed the spoon, poured oil, put vegetables, and immediately added noodles when the flames rose together, then weighed it three times, blinked, picked up the pot and put a bowl of hot and delicious noodles.
The steamed buns in Qiyi Hotel, next to the Great Cross, are also very famous. It is estimated that it should be a famous food in Jincheng at that time. Unfortunately, with the decline of South Street, steamed buns have disappeared, and the original hotel has long been changed into a furniture store.
Writing here, I suddenly remembered the "big bowl of tea" in Jincheng, except that the big bowl of tea was not put in a bowl, but in a flat jar covered with small flat glass. A bottle of yellowish tea can be bought at 20 cents. I am tired of shopping and walking. When I squatted on the ground and bought a book and drank a bottle, I suddenly felt refreshed from my mouth to my heart. It's really both quenching thirst and playing. This feeling is that pure water can't be drunk now.
Unfortunately, these small restaurants and snack bars have gradually disappeared with the rise of Jincheng. Now, walking on the streets of Jincheng, looking at more and more new buildings, looking at teahouses and restaurants that keep popping up one after another, you still can't help but miss these small restaurants and snack bars in the past. More restaurants will make you miss them more. I feel more and more that these small restaurants and snack bars are actually the representatives of our old Jincheng, the sustenance and soul of our old Jincheng!
