China has a vast territory and abundant resources, and each place has its own special diet. China's food culture is profound and has a long history, and enjoys a high reputation in the world. People in China pay attention to eating, which is not only to quench their thirst and satisfy their hunger with three meals a day, but also often contains the philosophical thought of China people to know and understand things. Among the major cuisines that a hundred schools of thought contend, I love Chongqing Jianghu cuisine alone.

Jianghu cuisine is a special diet in Chongqing with strong local flavor. The so-called Jianghu dishes, in the words of culinary experts, refer to dishes relative to authentic dishes. It is rooted in the folk, based on a dish, passed down from many families, and repeated cooking in an informal way, compound seasoning, western cooking of Chinese dishes, new cooking of old dishes and cooking of northern materials and southern cooking. It seems unintentional, but it is a natural skill, thus achieving surprising results. The biggest feature of Jianghu dishes is "soil", "coarse" and "miscellaneous". Jianghu cuisine can form its own system, with its geographical scope, social soil and catering culture atmosphere. Chongqing's unique geographical environment and climate characteristics have created the catering custom of "respecting taste and paying attention to spicy food".

Chongqing has three food business cards: noodles, hot pot and Jianghu dishes. In the mountain city of Chongqing, noodles, hot pot and Jianghu restaurants can be seen everywhere. If you walk next to Chongqing, you will meet one within 500 meters. Chongqing people like to eat spicy food, and many Chongqing cuisines are inseparable from the word "spicy", such as Chongqing hot pot, chuanchuanxiang, spicy noodles, hot and sour powder and so on. Chongqing Jianghu dishes are also very famous all over the country, and many people who come to Chongqing will take the opportunity to taste them. Today, Xiaobian recommends five river and lake dishes that Chongqing must eat: Qianjiang chicken offal, Laifeng fish, Maoxuewang and pickled bullfrog. You must eat it when you have the chance!

The catering industry has always been a keen industry. The ups and downs of its management and the evolution of schools always confirm the track of economic and cultural evolution, and reflect the process of social and political changes. Therefore, its development in different historical stages is deeply branded with the imprint of the times.
