Yangshuo's Shatian pomelo, Yangshuo kumquat and of course Yangshuo beer fish are top notch. Locals in Yangshuo beer fish say there are two secrets to making Yangshuo beer fish: first, boil it in Yangshuo with Li River water, and second, use fresh Li River live carp.
(A kind of complacency in living in a place with beautiful mountains and rivers is fully displayed here).
Eviscerate the live carp but do not scrape the scales, remove the internal organs, cut it in half, cut each half horizontally a few times to add flavor, then sprinkle with shredded ginger and other seasonings, put it into the oil pan and fry it fiercely, then put it in the oil pan over high heat.
Fry until the fish scales become soft and slightly rolled, and the fish body becomes brown. Pour in soy sauce, add tomato cubes and sprinkle with red pepper, then pour in half a bottle of beer and simmer until cooked.
Yangshuo "Beer Fish" is a famous local specialty in Yangshuo. The fish is fresh and spicy, without any fishy smell. The aroma of beer and fish is guaranteed to whet your appetite.
As the saying goes, "You won't know it if you don't eat it, but you won't forget it once you eat it." The unique taste of Beer Fish has attracted a large number of tourists who come here. After eating, they are full of praises and highly recommended.
When eating beer fish, the first thing I felt was that I didn’t expect fish skin to be so delicious!
The fish scales are fried into a crispy shell and covered with sauce. It is truly a new tongue experience.
Another feeling is that it was stupid not to add more chili pepper. This dish can only be perfect if it is spicy, and it can be enjoyable only if it is strong.
The cooking utensils are also very special. The fish is placed on a flat-bottomed plate. Under the plate is a basin with some water, and below is the fire. Unlike Sichuan hot pot, the pot is placed directly on the fire.
This way the fish on top will not burn easily and will be heated evenly.
Strangely enough, Yangshuo beer fish lost its original flavor once it moved from Yangshuo to other places. Therefore, diners can only taste the delicious and fragrant beer fish in Yangshuo. Yangshuo beer fish has also become a beautiful part of Yangshuo's food culture.

In fact, the taste of every restaurant in Yangshuo is similar, but here’s a trick: if you look at which restaurant has more people eating there, you’ll be right to go to that restaurant.
