In the east of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, there is a beautiful city, Chifeng, which is full of charm. In addition to the beautiful natural scenery, there is also delicious food that makes people want to stop, especially the local cakes, which are truly special delicacies.

First of all, we must mention the original hand cakes. It is a food similar to Roujiamo, but made with flour instead of dough. During the baking process, the dough is placed on the charcoal fire and grasped several times with your hands until the wrapped meat is evenly cooked. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, this pancake is full of meaty flavor and is one of Chifeng’s most famous delicacies.

Secondly, scones are also a delicacy not to be missed. Not only can scones be paired with different fillings, such as meat, vegetables, and tofu, but you can also add different flavors of seasonings to refresh your taste buds. The most popular is scone icing, which is made by spraying sugar syrup on the surface of scones and then baking them. It is very delicious.

Finally, we have another kind of cake - ginger cake. This kind of biscuit is very famous in Chifeng. It is a small yellow biscuit with a refreshing taste and is deeply loved by the locals. There is a small hole in each ginger cake, which is formed by the surface being squeezed during baking. If you are trying this cake for the first time, it is recommended that you pair it with a glass of milk as it has a slightly dry taste.

In short, although Chifeng is not a big city, the food culture it presents is worth exploring. Hand cakes, scones and ginger cakes are just the beginning of the local foodies’ feast, and there are countless food tours waiting for you.
