As a famous tourist city in Sichuan, Xichang not only relies on its unique local climate and beautiful scenery, but also its fascinating food.
The most famous Xichang delicacies are drunken shrimp and brazier barbecue.
Today, the program team of Chengdu TV's "Enjoy Sichuan" will lead everyone to experience the charm of drunken shrimp and brazier barbecue.
When talking about Xichang’s drunken shrimp and brazier barbecue, we have to mention Xichang’s Haihe Tianjie.
Haihe Tianjie in Xichang is just like Kuanzhai Alley and Jinli in Chengdu. It has become the third tourist business card of Xichang after Qionghai and Lushan because of its unique water town style and unreplicable riverside shopping street.
The moonlight scenery of the river has attracted countless tourists to Xichang to experience the beautiful night view of Xichang. It has become a habit for locals and tourists in Xichang to take a moonlight stroll through Haihe Tianjie after dinner.
Of course, you can also go to the night market on Haihetian Street to taste Xichang delicacies until late at night.
As the most unique delicacy in Xichang, drunken shrimp is very suitable as a late-night snack.
Fresh lake shrimps about 1.5 cm in size are selected and marinated in rice wine, spicy millet, chopped green onion and other seasonings to complete the drunken shrimps.
Because the lake shrimp itself feeds on seaweed, and has been disinfected by rice wine, the drunken shrimp itself is very hygienic.
The pickled lake shrimp itself is full of the spicy flavor brought by the seasoning. At the same time, because this dish is made with live shrimp, the umami flavor of the lake shrimp itself is best preserved.
Although the whole dish is called drunken shrimp, its essence is that the shrimp is intoxicating but not drunk at all, and does not smell of alcohol at all.
After learning about Drunken Shrimp, let’s take a look at Xichang’s most famous brazier barbecue.
In Xichang, there is rice noodles in the morning and barbecue in the evening.
? It is said that if you don’t eat barbecue in Xichang, your visit to Xichang will be in vain.
The biggest feature of Xichang brazier barbecue is its simplicity.
The simplicity of the grilling method, the green ingredients of the barbecue, and the eating style of eating meat in big bowls and drinking wine have made many friends who come to Xichang fall in love with Xichang’s brazier barbecue.
The must-order dish in Xichang Hotpot BBQ is baby pork.
