First, it is said that when Emperor Qianlong traveled incognito to the south of the Yangtze River, he was hungry after visiting the scenery of Yufeng Mountain through Kunshan, so he went to a small noodle restaurant to eat a bowl of fried fish noodles with red oil, which was delicious and asked the eunuch to inquire about the cooking method.

However, due to the language, the eunuch seemed to understand, but he used his quick wits to play: "The red oil noodles taste good, mainly because of the mystery on the noodle stove." When Qianlong heard this, he laughed and said, "The noodle stove is mysterious, the mysterious noodle stove." Since then, this small noodle restaurant has had the reputation of "Aozao noodles".

Second, the Aozao Museum has a history of nearly a hundred years. Its predecessor was Tianxiang Pavilion in Kunshan. The shopkeeper abandoned the pavilion because of poor management. Mrs Zhao San, the creditor, gave it to Chen Xiuying, the embroidered mother, and renamed it "Yan Fuxing". The ingenious Chen Xiuying is good at making exquisite snacks. It's really unusual for her to ask for advice modestly and cook carefully.

Yanfuxing noodle restaurant is small and old, black and long; Chen Xiuying is old, slow-witted, and careless, so he is nicknamed "the bad side" by diners. Salt stove is Kunshan dialect, which means it is not very clean. Who knows this strange name makes it spread like wildfire.
