Wenzhou wonton-grotesque wonton
Shanghainese like wonton very much. In Fujian, Guangdong, wonton is called wonton. Only when we arrived at this "Wenzhou Big Wonton" on Ruijin Second Road did we know that the name Wonton had a long history with Zhu Yuanzhang. It is said that once he ate a very delicious wonton in Wenzhou, and he couldn't help wolfing it down, hence the name "Wonton".
We can say that wonton ranges from snacks to large ones, but the square and flat wonton is probably the only place to eat. Wenzhou wonton is characterized by thin skin, fresh stuffing, bright color and clear soup. The wonton here is made of stock, with shredded eggs, kai yang, laver and quail eggs. It's very delicious.
Just talking about soup, in fact, the skin of wonton is even more exquisite, each piece is about 12 cm square, which is thin and tough. It is made by machine. Generally, a kilo of flour can make 91 skins, while a skilled master can make more than 161 skins. Moreover, this leather is very delicate and can't be preserved for a long time. It's all made and packaged now.
I've seen the quadrangular wonton, and I can't miss the long fish balls. In Wenzhou, yellow croaker and eel can be used to make fish balls, and soup is also different from fish soup, clear soup and broth. The special fish ball soup here uses snakehead and original fish soup, which tastes more pure.
do you know what "fishing" is? Listen carefully, this fish is not a fish, but the name of a dish. It is made up of a complete piece of fish, beaten into a very thin cake with a mallet, and then cut into strips like noodles. Three-silk fish is made of sea eel, which is frozen in Wenzhou and then shipped to Shanghai. Three-silk fish is shredded mustard tuber, shredded egg and shredded mushroom. This dish once appeared at a banquet in the State Council. It is a national dish.

Fuchun Steamed Bun-Yangzhou Steamed Bun with more succulent meat
"Fuchun Steamed Bun" is a specialty snack shop in Yangzhou, but it doesn't stick to the flavor of Yangzhou completely, but combines the tastes suitable for Shanghainese. Compared with the snacks in Yangzhou, the food here is sweeter and finer. It is said that Wang Rugang and Li Jiusong, famous burlesque actors, have a special liking for this place, and every time they pass by, they will come in and have a good time. Since the name of the shop is Fuchun Xiaolong, the Xiaolong here must be the most distinctive. The key to making Fuchun steamed buns lies in the layer of jelly in the stuffing, which was made after five processes. Fuchun steamed buns originated in Yangzhou, but they are different from Yangzhou's soup buns. It combines the practice of filling in Yangzhou soup and develops the wrapping method of local small cages in Shanghai, and the subtlety can only be felt by careful taste. Compared with Fuchun steamed buns in Yangzhou, the steamed buns here seem to have more meat, but also a lot of juice. If you don't want to eat a small cage with oil and water, you can try Fuchun's dessert. The taste of jujube paste cake, thousand-layer oil cake and radish shortcake is not bad. Or a bowl of sago, just to adjust the mouth that has just finished eating steamed buns. The sago dew here is made of Thai sago, which is processed for more than two hours and mixed with condensed milk, sugar and other seasonings. It tastes sweet but not greasy, and it is quite refreshing.

mom's rice noodle-it's expected to taste Yunnan and Guizhou in Sichuan
mom's rice noodle is a famous rice noodle shop in Sichuan. Opening a branch on Sichuan Road in Shanghai may be because of their Sichuan complex. To say that rice noodle is a special snack in Yunnan and Guizhou, how can it be carried forward by Sichuanese? The story should start with the founder of Mom's rice noodle.
The first mother was a first-generation female college student in China. In the 1921s, she went to Yunnan with her husband to do business. Later, when business failed, my mother learned to make rice noodles in Yunnan and brought them back to Sichuan.
The second mother inherited the technique of making rice noodles from her mother, and improved it, only then did she gradually form the mother's rice noodles with unique flavor.
"The taste is in Sichuan, but the taste is in Yunnan" is a typical generalization of Mom's rice noodles. It is my mother's initiative to combine the special rice noodles in Guizhou, Yunnan with the Sichuan-style cooking techniques. After Mom's rice noodles entered Shanghai, they combined with the tastes of southerners to lighten the ingredients of Sichuan-style spicy soup, highlighting the rich flavor of Sichuan.
Mushrooms are usually used to hang the flavor, but mom's stewed chicken rice noodles with mushrooms are fragrant and tender, and there is no astringency and bitterness. They can be eaten as a dish, plus the freshness of chicken and the smoothness of rice noodles, which is really good. Although the stewed chicken rice noodles with mushrooms are not spicy, they are deeply loved by Sichuanese, and once set a record of selling more than 1,111 bowls per day in a single store. It is said that eating this rice noodle is particularly resistant to hunger. If you eat a bowl in the morning, you will not be hungry in the afternoon.
there is also a big feature here: iron plate jiaozi. Jiaozi's wrapping method and fried dumpling method become iron plate jiaozi. You can not only taste the taste of jiaozi, but also the taste of fried dumpling, and it also has the function of heat preservation, which can be described as killing three birds with one stone.

Xiduoduo-the most exquisite fried rice with rice
The owner of Xiduoduo is only in his early thirties and used to be the manager of two famous fast food restaurants.
He likes to stir up some miscellaneous fried rice for himself at home at ordinary times. He is a real fried rice lover. Since he was ready to start his own business, he has searched all kinds of cookbooks to find recipes for fried rice everywhere. I also traveled to Southeast Asia at my own expense, eating nothing but fried rice. Two years ago, he opened this "Xiduoduo" featuring fried rice at the Chaling intersection of Damuqiao Road.
The facade of Xiduoduo's first opening room is unremarkable, but the store is often overcrowded. Many nearby residents and students love Xiduoduo to eat fried rice. Originally, I thought that a small restaurant might be a little messy, but this shop is small, but it is not messy, and there are several beautiful decorative paintings hanging on the wall, which gives people a good first impression. The most exquisite thing about cooking fried rice is to use rice. It is mentioned in the movie "Gourmet" that it is best to use overnight rice for fried rice. Because part of the water is collected after the rice is overnight, the fried rice is moderately dry and wet. "Xiduoduo" certainly won't let customers eat overnight meals. They use the rice cooked that day to make fried rice after being hit by cold water. After trying many kinds of rice, the boss of Xiduoduo chose Jiangsu rice. Because the rice for fried rice should not be too glutinous or too hard, because too glutinous will stick together and too hard will affect the taste. Jiangsu rice has moderate hardness and is just suitable for fried rice. Friends who love spicy food can come to Xiduoduo and order Indonesian fried rice and Chongqing fried rice. When friends with heavy tastes come here, they can order Tainan fried rice and Shanghai fried rice, and they can try both, without worrying about the price. After all, the most expensive fried rice here is only
11 yuan.

Aniang noodle restaurant-the best noodle restaurant in Shanghai
I strolled around Huaihai Road and Sinan Road twice, but I didn't find the Aniang noodle restaurant, which is called "the best noodle restaurant in Shanghai". Looking around, I finally asked passers-by on the street, only to know that this Taihe restaurant is the famous A Niang noodle restaurant we are looking for.
it's obviously a restaurant, but how can it be a noodle restaurant? It turns out that the owner himself is called auntie.
A Niang is from Ningbo. Her grandson called her A Niang, so people who came to eat noodles also called her A Niang. As a result, A Niang's noodles were spread, but the original name of Taihe Restaurant was forgotten. But Niang is a stubborn temper, and she doesn't want to change the name of Taihe restaurant to Niang noodle restaurant. The wine is not afraid of the deep alley, and it is not easy to keep this peace these days. The most famous noodle in Niang noodle restaurant is also the signature noodle here called yellow croaker noodle. This yellow croaker noodle is made by Niang herself at 3
o'clock in the morning and at 5 o'clock in the aquatic product market to buy wild yellow croaker.
after the yellow croaker noodles are served, if you add a hot sauce topping, everything will be complete. If you are here to eat the famous yellow croaker noodles, you should be prepared to wait with your mouth watering.
the business of Niang noodle restaurant is so good every day. In addition to repeat customers, there are many people who come all the way here. There are also two Hong Kong friends who come here with Li Chunen's Eat in Shanghai, which is actually not easy for even Shanghai locals to find.

Laojie dumplings-dumplings made by Anhui people are no worse than those made by Ningbo people
Qibao is a cultural ancient town with a thousand years' history. There are many shops in the main old street of the town, and Laojie dumplings are one of them. According to people in the old street, this dumpling shop is the most famous one here and the one with the best business. Many Qibao people love to eat dumplings here. Moreover, the owner of this store is not from Shanghai or Ningbo, but from Anhui.
This is a typical husband-and-wife shop. My husband is from Huangshan, and he has never made dumplings in his hometown. Since he learned how to make dumplings from an old master in the Chenghuang Temple, he opened his own shop to sell dumplings. It is not easy for his dumplings to be recognized by Shanghainese. The wife is in charge of the dumplings.
The dumplings here are all made by hand, starting with water milling and mixing materials to make stuffing. I heard that the most popular ones here are the traditional black crispy dumplings and fresh meat dumplings. It's waxy outside, but it doesn't stick to teeth at all; The meat stuffing inside is very tight, which is worthy of careful taste with the softness of the dumplings.
This well-known dumpling shop in Qibao area is actually very small. If you add up the upstairs and downstairs, it is estimated that more than 21 people can sit down. It is said that they are now famous. Some people come here specially from downtown to eat dumplings, and even bring foreigners. It seems that the store is not big, just delicious.

Qibao Winery-the wine brewed under your nose
There is a wine shop across the street from Laojie Tangtuan called Qibao Winery. Qibao Brewery does have something to do with Qibao Daqu. The chefs who make wine here used to be workers of Qibao Brewery, but now they make old wine by hand. This is the front shop and the back shop, and you can witness the whole process of brewing with your own eyes. As soon as you enter the store, you can smell the smell of distiller's grains. This is their equipment for steaming wine. Every day at noon, newly brewed wine comes out. As soon as the wine here reaches the mouth, it goes down like a thread, and there is no very spicy feeling in the throat, which is very good.
the wine in the store is packaged in the store. There are small bottles, you can give them away, and there are also zero copies. One catty and half a catty can be weighed at will. However, it's interesting to see the process of making wine in the shop, even for people who can't drink.
It's said that the seven treasures and bad meat here are very special. Making bad meat in the wine shop seems to be a bit like getting the moon by being close to the water. This bad meat is said to be made with their secret recipe. Sweet and salty, full of wine and meat. The bad meat in this small jar can be eaten after being taken back and steamed for 21 minutes, which is very convenient.
cakes are also sold in the wine shop. Qibao Fangzheng cake is made of glutinous rice outside and contains red bean paste inside. It is soft when it is steamed, but it will harden after a while. Fangzheng cake is the best when it is not hard, with moderate sweetness and delicate taste.
Although it looks like a small shop, the wine shop is already relatively large in the old street. It must feel good to heat a pot of wine, order two dishes and have a drink.

Yixianglou Hunan Restaurant-boiled fish in Hunan cuisine
Yixianglou is located in Hongqiao Road, a densely populated Hunan restaurant, and its boss and chef are all from Hengyang. Nowadays, Shanghai Beach is fashionable to improve the major cuisines, while Yixianglou is immersed in cooking its own unique hometown dishes.
From the hand-carved boards in Xiangxi hanging on the wall, we can see their local flavor. But the decoration of the shop is not indigenous, which is a bit like the new Hunan cuisine.
In the past, after fishing in Dongting Lake, local fishermen in Hunan directly mixed the live fish with peppers and cooked them in a pot, which was called "live boiled live fish" at that time. Yixianglou's signature dish "boiled live fish" evolved from this folk local dish. Its practice is different from that of boiled fish in Sichuan cuisine.
The boiled live fish of Sichuan cuisine is all over the world, but the boiled live fish of Hunan cuisine is rare. Boiled live fish is very particular about the choice of raw materials. According to the chef, about four pounds of herring is the most suitable for this dish. When the meat is big, it looks rough, but when it is small, it is loose and inelastic.
"Have a meal", that's what people in Hunan call it. The way to eat boiled live fish is a bit particular. Generally, you can drink soup first and then eat meat. However, people in Hunan will put the big fish pieces in a bowl, mash them with chopsticks and add some fish soup, which may make them more delicious. Hunan cuisine is mainly based on Changsha, Xiangtan and Hengyang. And Hunan cuisine in Hengyang is
