Mingwa Gallery is located in Xinjiekou, surrounded by shopping malls and office buildings. Although it is only a 400-meter-long alley, the authentic "eating goods" has a unique preference for it. This street gathers all kinds of catering flavors, which can be said to be the gourmet Sacido in Xinjiekou. Nanjing authentic snacks and food from all over the country meet and blend here, and shine brilliantly.
It brings together eight snacks in Nanjing, from Nanjing people's favorite fish pot stickers, egg burgers and plum blossom cakes to Nanjing casserole. Each product represents the taste of Nanjing. Among them are Afu iron plate squid, national football stinky tofu, Liu Ji roasted cold noodles, and Chicago crispy egg burger, all of which are popular among online celebrities. Some time ago, the shops demolished due to rectification came back, so Mingwa Gallery is still a good place for foodies to feed. If you travel to Nanjing, you must not miss this Mingwa Gallery, which is full of street flavor.
1, Golden Red Star Duck
If you come to Nanjing, please remember to try the duck cooked by Nanjing people, because Nanjing people have the ability to turn the whole duck into delicious food. The most famous ones are salted duck, open-hearth roast duck, duck blood vermicelli, stewed duck head and duck neck.
This is a shop frequented by many Nanjing people, and it is also a very popular shop on the Internet. Duck skin is thick and mellow, and freshly baked duck meat tastes best when it is warm, especially the layer of duck oil between duck skin and meat is very fragrant. Tender duck in sauce (the sauce tastes sweet, maybe friends in Zhejiang and Shanghai prefer it) is perfect! Come to Mingwa Gallery and pass by Xiao Wei. Don't miss it.
2, easy to remember skin belly noodles
When you come to the food street of Mingwa Gallery, you can't miss Nanjing's special skin belly noodles and old duck = vermicelli soup, such as the easy-to-remember skin belly noodles, which are very popular on the Internet. A bowl of noodles contains various side dishes, such as belly (pigskin), shredded pork, sausage, eggs, vegetables, tomatoes, fungus and so on. The soup is fresh and the ingredients are fresh. Mingwa Gallery is an easy-to-remember base camp.
I heard that Yiji didn't sell skin and belly noodles at first, but made duck blood and duck sausage soup. Unexpectedly, after the business was booming, it was imitated, and duck blood vermicelli soup was spread all over the streets. The boss was unhappy, so he simply gave up duck blood soup and sold skin and belly noodles instead.
3. Hongzehu fish fried dumpling
This is a famous snack in Jianghuai area. From batter to golden fried dumplings, fresh shortcakes are covered with special sauce made of small fish and sprinkled with a little coriander. It tastes fragrant and crisp, so be sure to eat it while it is hot. I just feel a little tired. If two people go together, it is just right to buy one and get two free.
4. Qijia noodles
Qijia Noodle Restaurant has another name in the mouth of the old Nanjing people-"Widow Noodle". He is the originator of Nanjing Xiaozhu noodles and went to CCTV. Its location is actually a big incense burner.
His special noodles are cooked in a small pot, and a bowl of noodles is cooked in one pot. Many local people in Nanjing like to eat here, which is very popular. The taste, personally, is ok. The soup is very fresh, not the kind with monosodium glutamate, but the soup cooked in a large pot. You can try it when you travel to Nanjing.
5, Afu iron plate pickled squid
Their sauce is very special, and it is called the first sizzling squid in Nanjing, which is worth a try. The popularity is very strong, especially at night, you can always see long queues. I don't really like squid myself, but I feel good after eating their squid whiskers. Anyway, when I come to travel, I will try those famous snacks. Now it is combined with elephant rice noodles and egg hamburgers.
In fact, there are many delicious foods in Mingwa Gallery, so I won't say them one by one. You can choose according to your preferences and itinerary. You always want to taste local food and experience the local customs of which city through food. This is also an experience of traveling.
