Last year, UNESCO selected 26 food capitals, among which Shunde, Chengdu, Yangzhou and Macau in China were among them.

Yangzhou, the starting point of the ancient canal, has become a world heritage.

Because of the economic prosperity, it has become a favorite place for literati and poets since ancient times, leaving many classic poems. For example, "Fireworks in Yangzhou in March" makes Yangzhou "Fireworks in March" every year (probably around April), which has become the most popular season for tourists and tourism.

actually, it's fun to go to Yangzhou at any time, not just in April. And why did Yangzhou become the food capital? I have learned that as one of the birthplaces of Huaiyang cuisine, there are not only many authentic restaurants, but also disciplines specializing in Huaiyang cuisine in universities. This degree of attention has enabled Huaiyang cuisine to be inherited and carried forward.

Because Huaiyang cuisine is acceptable to the public, it has also become a state banquet and is world-famous. Then, if you want to take a walk in Yangzhou and taste Huaiyang cuisine, I recommend several restaurants to choose from:

Yangzhou Banquet

Yangzhou Banquet has several branches, and we tasted it at Slender West Lake Store. This restaurant is one of the most famous Huaiyang cuisine restaurants in Yangzhou, offering the most authentic and traditional Huaiyang cuisine.

The restaurant of Yangzhou Banquet is antique in architecture and luxurious in decoration. Drunken crab, salted goose, lion's head, fried soft bag and gourd duck are all delicious. Finally, you can try Yangzhou fried rice.

nine furnaces branch

The name of nine furnaces branch comes from "Nine Ruming Houses Hanging Moss", which was founded in the late Qing Dynasty and has a history of one hundred years. After several ups and downs, it has become an old shop today. There are also many branches in Jiulu, and the taste is very grounded. Locals also like to eat here.

Jiulu's tea is also very famous, but I like their Huaiyang cuisine, which is delicious and has many categories, and inherits the pure Huaiyang cuisine tradition. The new three-headed pot, hot-boiled prawns, old chicken soup with yam, fried shrimps, old chicken soup with yam, and especially the purple potato with stewed juice, are simply delicious, shocking and memorable.

Yechun

Yechun is so famous that it is a century-old brand, but everyone knows that Yechun is a place to eat morning tea, "bag water in the morning", three-dimensional buns, soup buns and so on. However, Yechun actually has lunch and dinner, and the taste is very good, and you can also eat "bag water" at noon and evening.

Dining English Villa

This is unknown to most people. Dining English Villa is located in Slender West Lake. Because of the beautiful scenery, many people think it is a scenic spot, not a place to eat. Some people even think that this place is not open to the public. Actually, it is open to the outside world.

Dining English Villa is the place I go to every time I go to Yangzhou. The food is particularly delicious, and I feel different when I go to the food every year. It's slightly improved, but it tastes better.

Because the dining English villa is also the dining place for the staff of Slender West Lake, you can see many beautiful young lady guides of Slender West Lake. If you want to eat here, you can go in from the old north gate, just say you are going to eat in the English villa.

Eat seven and eight

Strictly speaking, this place is not the most traditional Huaiyang cuisine, and it has been greatly improved. The taste is more biased towards Sichuan cuisine. If you go late, you have to wait in line. There are so many people in line, so try to go as early as possible. The taste here is more in line with the current trend.

The food here is delicious, and the beer is worth tasting. On the day we went, we also saw Sean Xiao fans having a party to celebrate their birthdays. I don't know what it was.
