Its breakfast is the most famous, so we want the most famous brains, such as plum, meatball soup and hat box. It is said that the brain is tofu brain. When I went to the table, I found that this was not the case at all. It's actually a bowl of batter in a big bowl. After drinking it, I found that there was rice and wine in it, which really made people who came into contact for the first time feel very strange. I fished with chopsticks and actually fished out the mutton pieces.
But after eating it, I found that the taste was ok. As soon as my brain was hot, I felt hot after drinking it. There are yellow wine and distiller's grains in the ingredients, so it smells like wine.
Mei bamboo shoots are actually steamed dumplings, which only contain mutton stuffing and taste good. There are beef meatballs in meatball soup, which can be eaten in a hat box. If you eat the hat box dry, you will choke and bake it very dry.
The mind is also divided into single bowls, double bowls and auxiliary bowls. The difference is that a single bowl is a bowl, a double bowl is a single bowl with a bowl of soup, and an auxiliary bowl is a single bowl without mutton. Single bowl 18 yuan, double bowl 20 yuan, auxiliary bowl 8 yuan, hat box 3 yuan, sharp plum 8 yuan/two, meatball soup 8 yuan.
From snacks to big ones! Only I have it in Taiyuan! Only one! Many people are not used to the taste of brains. Let me tell you something: Fu Shan in the Qing Dynasty, her mother was seriously ill. He is very filial. He brings together some great, light and digestible ingredients and feeds them to his mother every day.
Later, my mother got better after a serious illness, and this medicated diet was handed down, which is the brain we ate. A bowl of soul contains mutton, lotus root, long yam, yellow wine and batter.
In another cage, add some leeks, and it tastes great!
The steamed dumplings here are called roasted plums, which is probably the pronunciation of ancient Chinese. Its characteristic is brain-strengthening, and Baidu is also called Shiquan Dabu Decoction. The price is quite high, but it is really warm after eating, which is also a local characteristic of Taiyuan.
Chatting with taxi drivers mentioned Qing Heyuan's brain. The local driver's master said that the brain is generally eaten by local old people now, and middle-aged people are generally not used to it.
However, since we are foreign tourists, we should try this special dish. I suggest a bowl for two people. The steamed dumplings here are stuffed with mutton.
One of the most representative hotels in Taiyuan is the former Xishan Hotel in Liubei. The other is in the north of Causeway Bay. Liu Bei's Qinghe Garden no longer supplies brains after morning, so if you don't have time to eat in the morning, you can also go to Qinghe Garden in the north of Causeway Bay to eat brains.
The most distinctive features of Qinghe Garden are brain, steamed dumplings, yellow wine and steamed bread. The brain is made of eight kinds of ingredients such as yellow wine, mutton, yam, lotus root and noodles, supplemented by a leek soup. Steamed dumplings are made of mutton, and steamed bread is similar to snacks. This set meal is the most traditional Qinghe Garden menu. Others, such as roast lamb chops, are all good. You can try.
Qinghe Garden, located in Liuxiang, did not find the exact address in the comments. But it's right across from Hao Gang, a popular food store. It's very easy to find.
The whole building is Islamic style, with three to four floors. The dining room is spacious and bright with private rooms.
When I passed by at noon, I saw many people coming here to eat. I love pure vegetables, beef and mutton, so I decided to have dinner here.
We ordered three courses, and the taste is unforgettable:
Cumin mutton: Cumin mutton in every place has its own unique method.
Qingheyuan mutton was wrapped in cumin sesame seeds after high-temperature oil explosion, and every bite of mutton juice seemed to explode, which showed that the ingredients were fresh.
I prefer sheep-flavored mutton, that is, mutton with strong flavor. This dish is full of sheep flavor! Recommended!
Roast mutton: I didn't expect this dish to make me miss it all the time. In fact, when eating in a restaurant, I should try to eat as little stuffing as possible. It is said that the stuffing is made of minced meat.
But as a must for spaghetti, I'd better try it. But I didn't expect it to smell good. I think I will eat soup carefully first, just like Suzhou dumplings in Shanghai. Mutton soup is rare, but it is locked in the stuffing!
Red noodles: Sorghum noodles mixed with white noodles, blanched with clear water, with tomato juice or sweet noodle sauce. The taste is elastic and smooth, not hard or rotten.
Unfortunately, I didn't eat the recommended dish roast lamb chops! It turned out that they were all sold out at night!
It is an honor to have a meal in such a century-old shop. The taste may not be my favorite, but the tradition is well maintained. I hope I can eat authentic Shanxi cuisine here next time I come to Taiyuan.
I drank mutton soup last night, and my deskmate introduced that I must drink a bowl of Taiyuan's famous brains for breakfast, so I packed up and went straight to Qinghe Garden in the morning.
When I came in, I asked for a bowl of brains, a steamed bread, two pickles and a pot of Liu Huang.
Mushroom soup, similar to western food in mind, tastes original, containing mutton, yam and lotus root slices, and seems to have a faint taste of milk wine. Send a plate of pickled leeks to your brain. It's salty enough. The taste is ok.
Steamed dumplings and mutton stuffing are salty and oily. Maybe everyone is used to the taste.
Personally feel greasy. However, you can eat occasionally.
People say that breakfast in Taiyuan must be a box of brains, and the most authentic one is Qinghe Garden.
Qingheyuan has two stores in Liuxiang, one is street decoration and the other is an old shop. The distance between the two stores in the community is 100 meter.
In order to see the original breakfast, I chose to go to an old shop and sat at three or four tables in the lobby at seven o'clock.
Five minds selling mutton directly suggest a pair of bowls. First, a single bowl is too big to eat. Second, the first taste may not be acceptable. Personally, it's a little weak to have mutton, yam and lotus root in my head.
Use leeks and pickles.
The lamb for sale is a little shy.
I have to say that this box looks like Fu Miao, but it's difficult. How to break it really tests my hand, but I rely on my teeth. It tastes good, and it tastes like eating my brain. Take your time.
The service of the old shop is more general. Anyway, I just want novelty.
PS: This taste may not be acceptable to everyone, so have a special one.
Qingheyuan Hotel is located in the northeast triangle of the intersection of Qiaotou Street and Dapufu in Taiyuan City. It is famous for its long history, excellent production, rich nutrition and unique flavor-"brain" inside and outside the province.
Talking about "Qingheyuan Hotel", whether tracing back to the origin of the old shop or talking about the origin of "heart", can not be separated from Mr. Fu Shan, a famous Shanxi thinker and politician in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties.
This is also the main reason why Qingheyuan Hotel is unique and prestigious among many old brands.
The most distinctive features of Qingyuan are scheming and steamed dumplings. I ate them all. The brain can't eat until morning.
Qinghe Garden is good, the ingredients are fresh, and mutton, lotus root and yam are thick, mellow and mild.
The most famous food in Taiyuan is the brain of Qinghe Garden. It not only tastes delicious, but also has high nutritional value. With a long history, there is a famous story about the brain. You must try it when you come to Taiyuan!
I was born in Qiaotou Street, which is only a minute's walk from home to Qinghe Garden. When I was a child, my family was not rich. In winter, my grandfather went back to Qingheyuan to drink and eat steamed dumplings, and I borrowed the lamp to enjoy it.
At other times, it is difficult to go once, that is, relatives at home get married or something, and the food is very high every time.
What impressed me the most was that one of my uncles invited me once and the whole family ate hot pot here. It's really delicious.
Today's Qinghe yuan, I think that is, the winter brain still tastes the same, and everything else is very general!
Taiyuan is a famous time-honored brand with a long history, excellent production and rich nutrition.
Among the products sold, brain is the most famous. Qinghe Yuannao is a soup made of mutton, sheep marrow, distiller's grains, Huimian Noodles, lotus root, long yam, astragalus root and galangal. When eating, it is served with pickled leeks, and then the mutton is slightly sour. It's really nourishing. I may not be used to it for the first time.
I ordered the old lady's breakfast standard-brain+pickled leek+hat box+flowers and a little plum.
It looks lovely. The hollow hat box is hard. I was going to eat it in my head.
This bowl looks like rice porridge, with noodles+two slices of lotus root+three slices of yam and mutton in its head. The taste is not salty or sweet, and it is original.
Smell the mixture of yellow rice wine and mash. Green pickled leek.
The heart is like bean juice, the locals are kind-hearted, and foreign tourists are new here.
I can proudly say-can my brain adapt to soybean juice quickly?
Shaomei is very appetizing. She likes mutton and killed five by herself. Sweet but not greasy. You deserve it.
In short, it is very satisfying and a good foreign food experience!
On the way, I found another famous restaurant, Qinghe Garden.
Ten years ago, while walking, I read a column in Tianjin Daily and saw an introduction about Qinghe Yuanji, a famous snack in Taiyuan.
But I saw selling brains for breakfast in the morning on the Internet. I only saw the sign of Qinghe Garden, but I didn't find out where the restaurant was. I don't know whether it was under renovation or closed.
Later, I heard from a colleague in Taiyuan that the brain was only sold from June 10 to April of the following year. Besides, most people are not used to eating this stuff. What's more, those who are used to eating are also accepted and liked after eating for three times.
Hearing this, I guess I must be the one I'm not used to.
Near Liubei Bus Station, there is also an old shop, Qinghe Garden Brain, where you can eat Shaanxi's special food brain.
Personally, I think the brain is really a feature of Taiyuan, but it is unacceptable and basically tasteless.
There is also a strong smell of yellow rice wine and mutton. Finally, I took a few bites, patted my ass and left.
If you are really interested, you can consider giving it a try. But according to the local people, eating once, eating three or four times will make you feel that the taste is ok, and eating five or six times will make you addicted. However, I didn't have the chance.
Its brain is the most famous snack in Shanxi. Not many people eat. Go in and ask, "brain" only sells breakfast. It is said that most people are not used to it. What's more, if you are used to it, you have to eat it three times before you accept it.
I only came here to taste a famous Shanxi food "Fushan Brain". I didn't expect that "Brain" was a breakfast in Taiyuan, and it was not served at other times.
However, before I left Taiyuan, I tasted the taste of "brain". Delicious. I'm glad you came.
It is said that most people who like to drink "brain" fall in love after drinking it for three times. I like it for the first time, but "brain" is expensive as breakfast, a bowl 16 yuan; This hat fits 2 yuan money.
Brains are a classic breakfast in Taiyuan, and the old shop "Qinghe Garden" only deals with brains before 9 am. With pickled leeks, mutton, steamed dumplings, sesame seeds cake, delicious and nutritious.
I never eat mutton, but I can't help but try this classic breakfast. The milky thick soup still reminds me of some tissues in the animal brain, and I'm scared. But once the soup tasted delicious, there was no salty taste in it, so the locals ate it with a small dish of pickled leeks.
