On New Year's Day this year, I came to Yangzhou to shoot the snow scene and the cherry blossoms in March twice, and stayed for nearly a week each time. I have eaten almost all the famous shops in Yangzhou, four times a day.

Now, let me explain to you the most concerned issues: where to eat, how to eat, and how to queue up. You know, the delicious Huaiyang cuisine is far more than Yangzhou fried rice and morning tea.

The following restaurants can be said to represent the most famous, high-quality and top-grade restaurants in Yangzhou, but only 100-300 yuan per capita. Isn't it exciting?

First of all, I'd like to introduce several restaurants under the famous "Yangcheng Blindly". When you come to Yangzhou for dinner, almost all the restaurants with the hottest queues in the newspapers belong to Yangcheng blindly.

Yangcheng Yiwei has four brands of restaurants, all of which are delicious, and none of them step on thunder. However, several companies have been waiting for a long time, so we must be mentally prepared. Therefore, how to eat delicious food and queue as little as possible is definitely a science.

The characteristics of each store

Online numbering and queuing

If you want to be seated at the first time, you should queue up at the scene and arrive half an hour to an hour earlier than the meal time.

If you don't want to wait too long at the scene, Fun Garden, Yangzhou Banquet, and 7 Eat 8 Bar all strongly recommend that you get your number on the "Yangzhou Blind" WeChat official account first, but even if you get your number, you should try your best on your mobile phone and wait until it's almost time to get your number. For example, in the fun park, I started to brush at 6 am and got the number at 7: 02. At 7: 05, when I brushed it again, the number was already displayed, and there were 49 people waiting in front. We didn't sit down until half past nine.

Introduction of each store

1 Fun Garden Slender West Lake Store: This store is the most famous, because it appeared in Flavor World 2, and its reputation is far-reaching. The hardest thing to queue up is next to Building 8 of Yingbin Hotel. Basically, the numbering starts around 7 am, but many diners really go to the scene at 5 or 6 am. Arrive at 9 o'clock and wait for lunch. This is the first place to give the number to the people waiting in line at the scene. When seated on the spot, the number will be placed online.

Last time, in order to eat this restaurant, I stayed in Building 8 of the hotel next door. After I get my number online at 7: 00 in the morning, I can sleep in a cage, and then walk around when I get my number at 9: 00. Moreover, the intimacy of this family is that if the number is over, you can go in and eat according to the number and postpone three tables.

Recommended dishes:

The food here can almost be ordered with your eyes closed, and there is no thunder. Crab-yellow glutinous rice balls, thousand-layer oil cakes, shrimp Yangchun noodles, Wuding steamed buns, shrimp wonton and soup steamed dumplings are my favorites. In particular, you must be careful when eating crab roe dumplings and steamed dumplings. There is really a lot of juice in it.

2 Fun Garden Song Cheng Store: If you don't want to wait in line, you can try this one, which is on the first floor of Song Cheng Resort Hotel. Most of them are set meals, and the variety is not as rich as that of Slender West Lake Store. So this time I came to Yangzhou, I chose to stay in Song Cheng Resort Hotel. Breakfast in the hotel is in the Happy Garden. There is no need to queue for breakfast at eight o'clock, like Slender West Lake Store.

3 7 Eat 8: A family I like very much. Especially after eating too many Huaiyang dishes, the family can order different dishes, and because there are many innovative dishes. Therefore, although it is still Huaiyang cuisine, the practice is slightly different from that of other families.

Recommended dishes:

Here is the best Yangzhou fried rice I have ever eaten in Yangzhou, not one of them. And salmon is a must for every table.

4 Yangzhou Banquet Slender West Lake Store: Just at the east gate of Slender West Lake, it is the hottest and hottest one in all Yangzhou banquets, and there is no one. The Twelve Fronts was filmed here. The queue starts from almost 2 hours, and there are 200 people in the private room. There is no minimum consumption in the lobby. Therefore, if this family has a long queue, they can go to other Yangzhou banquets.

Recommended dishes:

Stinky tofu, lion's head, salted goose, shortbread

5 Yangzhou Banquet Song Cheng Mountain Villa Store: This treasure restaurant has been open for more than two years, and it is deeply hidden in Songjiacheng Park, so the environment is very good, and it seems like going to the park for an outing all the way. This house is not far from Slender West Lake, but there are fewer tourists. When there are many people in Slender West Lake Store, come here quickly. The two stores are actually not far away. There are 300 private rooms and there is no minimum consumption in the lobby. Moreover, the waiters here are all Koreans and can speak a little Mandarin.

Recommended dishes:

Salted goose head is a specialty of this family, and many seasonal ingredients are also used, such as spring bamboo shoots, Malantou, cress and lentils.

6 Yangzhou Banquet Canal Store: Near Dongguan Street. Most private rooms face the ancient canal. This restaurant is also the most traditional and exquisite, and it won't wait in line as long as Slender West Lake. In fact, if you want to eat Yangzhou banquet, you don't have to wait in line at Slender West Lake Store. Come here.

Recommended dishes:

Shrimp jelly, braised abalone and fried rice with eggs are my favorite dishes in this restaurant.

7 Yangzhou Banquet Sanwan Store: Close to Sanwan Scenic Area, a distance from Slender West Lake and the urban area. If you come to Sanwan Scenic Area, you can come to this store. There are fewer people.

Su Hui: In the business district of Hongqiao Square, it is convenient to travel around and there are many entertainment facilities. Every dish here is as exquisite as a work of art, and I don't feel vegetarian at all. It is delicious. The private room is also 300 yuan.

Yangzhou morning tea has three springs, three gardens and three springs (Gonghechun, Ye Chun and Fuchun). Apart from the interesting gardens, there are these three springs, among which Ye Chun is the best, and canals, waterside pavilions and stage are all its characteristics.

1 Ye Chun: Be sure to come to Ye Chun Tea House, which is the head office, next to the Royal Pier in the south of Ganlong River. The scenery is excellent, and the place to have morning tea is by the canal. Many details and exquisiteness are not lost in the fun garden. There are also local opera lovers performing spontaneously on the stage of the square, and there are many local small handicrafts for sale, which are really full of life.

2 bagged water: There are several bagged water in Dongguan Street, but you must go to this one where you can have morning tea. You can listen to Yang Ju while eating morning tea. The price of this house is much more civilian than that mentioned above, and it is also a favorite place for local people.
