In Tongli, a small town in the south of the Yangtze River, there are not many splendid restaurants, but there are not many restaurants in Guzhen. Most tourists who come to Guzhen like to order food by the Sanqiao River, but the price is a little expensive. Generally, a plate of fish 26 yuan and a green vegetable 8 yuan costs about 7 to 8 yuan. These dishes are all cooked by the owner of the riverside shop, which has local characteristics.
A restaurant called "Chunguan Noodle Restaurant" is especially recommended for popular food. Located directly opposite Tongli Cinema. The storefront is very small, and it can seat about 12 people. When the weather is fine, the proprietress will take the table out of the shop and put some chairs to greet the guests. Braised fish and fried screws are the specialty of the shop. The price of vegetables in this shop is much cheaper than that by the river, which is very affordable.
Popular Cuisine Another place to eat Tongli snacks is Tongli Tea House, where you can taste authentic and delicious snacks. In addition, across a street in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there is a shop called "Laijun Pastry" which is 1 meters away from the alley. There are many kinds of sweet-scented osmanthus water chestnut cake and mung bean cakes, and a cup of thick soybean milk tastes good.
