In fact, when we went to Lugu Lake, we were worried about food.

Now the editor will talk to you about this issue.

I don't know what you like to eat.

Now the editor will recommend it to you.

: Recommendation 1. Huotang Tanghuo culture and circles are very famous in the Lijiang River area.

The Mosuo people's fire pit in Lugu Lake has many less gimmicks and is much simpler.

Tang fire is an important part of the life of the Mosuo people. Without it they cannot eat, offer sacrifices and keep warm.

When you arrive at Lugu Lake, you can try Huotang delicacies, with a hot pot in the middle and barbecues all around.

There are chicken hotpot, pork ribs hotpot, etc.

For barbecue, try wild mushrooms from Yunnan.

The mushrooms grilled by the fire pit are delicious.

2. Grilled fish, whitebait, crucian carp soup, dried fish, snails, and drunken shrimps from freshwater Lugu Lake are among the top fresh river foods.

You have to have a delicious meal when you're at the lake.

The water depth of Lugu Lake has visibility of 13 meters.

The lake water is super clear and pollution-free.

All freshly caught fish and shrimp are made into soups and vegetables, which are very nutritious and healthy.

From left to right: chicken jelly, buckwheat cake, chicken hot pot, and pork fat.

3. Fast food tartary buckwheat cake, chicken jelly, butter tea, flower sugar, and pears are all the special afternoon tea of ??Lugu Lake.

If you include roasted chicken, the roasted chicken here is so delicious that you want to suck your fingers.

Pickled pears are sour and sweet for appetizer.

There are two kinds, one is sweet and the other is salty.

4. Beverages and Meats The low-alcohol Sulima wine and the medium-high alcohol instant wine are the most famous. Both of these wines are fermented from highland barley, buckwheat, corn and other grains.

Pig blood sausage and pig fat are the main meats that Mosuo people use to entertain guests.

It sounds a bit heavy, but it tastes really good if you like it.

There is also the famous Mosuo wedding banquet, which you must try.

Tips: (1) Most inn owners also run restaurants and open bars.

If they leave early and come back late, they can ask the innkeeper if they can cook on the day of check-in.

(2) Nisai Village and Xiaoluoshui Village. There are fewer and fewer restaurants here and they are becoming more and more primitive. You don’t have to worry about getting hungry while playing in this area.

Most of the local people are very simple and kind-hearted. If you bother the host, you can pay for it yourself (usually a few local vegetarian dishes cost 20-30 yuan).

The specialty food pig fat is a special food of the Mosuo people and has rich cultural significance.

It represents family wealth and respect for the elderly.

If in a funeral, the more pork you receive, the more respected the deceased is and the higher the prestige of the family.

The method of making pig fat is to remove the internal organs and bones of the slaughtered pig, stuff the pig with pepper, salt and other condiments, then sew the pig as it is and place it in a dry and refreshing place. It can usually be eaten in three to five years.

When cooking, soak it in water until soft and cut into five-inch strips. After boiling, it becomes fat but not greasy pork with ethnic flavor.

It is said that the two pieces of pork breast meat on display in the museum are 10 years old and are still edible.

What to eat for breakfast? Breakfast in Lugu Lake not only includes ordinary steamed buns, soy milk, porridge, fried dough sticks, and tea eggs, but also Yunnan’s unique small pot rice noodles, chicken rice noodles, yak rice noodles, mixed sauce rice noodles, and some special Mosuo breakfast buckwheat.

Baba, highland barley cake, butter tea.
