Speaking of Hunan, what immediately jumped out of your mind?
Or is it the tourist destination of Zhangjiajie?

In the eyes of outsiders, Hunan can only take the stinky tofu, but in the eyes of the locals, Hunan has chopped pepper fish head, Xiangxi grandmother's dishes, Yongzhou blood duck, Mao's braised pork, each of which is the local people's favorite.
Than these, Hunan is more difficult for outsiders to accept the strange dishes, these strange dishes either ugly, or strange flavor, sigh: Hunan people really dare to eat!
