Suzhou is a water town in the south of the Yangtze River. It is a famous tourist city with many special snacks.
In fact, Yangzhou and Suzhou are relatively famous for their breakfasts. Noodles, porridge, and fried pancakes all have their own characteristics.
The noodles in Suzhou are mainly long and thin. You can buy a bowl of pork chop noodles for ten yuan. But the more famous ones are shredded eel noodles and braised pork noodles. If you want to know which restaurant is delicious, you can look at where there are more people queuing up, and if there are more local people, it must be delicious.
Before I went to Suzhou, I had heard about dumb pan-fried fried rice, and I went there to try it. It was really crunchy on the bottom and juicy on the inside. There are also more tourists coming here because of its reputation.
Do you know why Suzhou and Hangzhou cuisine is sweeter? It is said that at that time, sugar was not as important as it is now. Putting sugar in it is actually an indirect way to show off your wealth. The slow dishes are all on the sweet side. Suzhou is famous for its sugar porridge. I don’t like sweet things, but since it is considered a special snack in Suzhou, I bought it and tried it. It was not particularly sweet, and there was a strong scent of osmanthus in it.
I don’t know if you have salted glutinous rice balls. We in northern Jiangsu also have Cai Tuan Yuan, but they are all made by my mother and are not sold. Later, I ate salted glutinous rice balls once in Suzhou. Wow, they were full of glutinous rice balls. It’s full of meat, don’t be too happy
I saw a Zangshu mutton shop here before. I saw the word Tibetan and mutton, and I thought of Tibet. I thought Zangshu mutton was the mutton from Tibet. In fact, It's because I'm ignorant, and I didn't realize until I went to Suzhou that the book collection is actually the name of a place in Suzhou, where the mutton is relatively famous. Later, I was lucky enough to buy some to take home. It was indeed delicious.
Not only does Suzhou have poor scenery, but it also has a lot of delicious food. In fact, there are snacks and the like near the scenic area, but they are not particularly authentic. Some delicious food is not particularly easy to find if you are not a local.
