Changsha's stinky tofu is most famous for its century-old fire palace. Everyone who enters the fire palace doesn't eat stinky tofu. 1958, when Mao Zedong visited Changsha, he went to the Fire Palace to eat stinky tofu. The stinky tofu in Huogong Palace is made of high-quality Liuyang douchi, boiled with winter bamboo shoots, mushrooms and koji wine. The fried stinky tofu is crispy outside and tender inside, and then poured with spices such as Chili oil, sesame oil and soy sauce, which is very delicious. In addition to the Fire Palace, many personal stalls scattered in folk alleys taste quite good, such as the "Five Corners" in the south gate, and the teams that buy stinky tofu often have to queue for a long time.

Tasty shrimp is gorgeous in color, rich in soup, spicy and delicious, and is deeply loved by Changsha people. At first, fresh shrimp appeared on the dining table in the form of midnight snack. Now there are many special restaurants specializing in fresh shrimp in Changsha, such as "Simian" in the south gate, "Shengji" and "Meiyuan" under Bayi Bridge. Shrimp won the hearts of Changsha people with the hotness of a sister in Changsha. This is a kind of hot from skull to toe, so hot that your tongue sticks out straight, and you are fascinated. Unlike Shanghainese who pick crabs with toothpicks, Changsha people have a sense of heroism when they eat fresh shrimp. No wonder street legends say that this delicious shrimp also has the function of "aphrodisiac".

It tastes salty and a little spicy (if you don't eat spicy food, it is spicy). You just feel a little delicious when you eat it. If you eat all the way, you hope you can't swallow it with your belt bone.
