If you visit Suzhou with Hu Zunbei, I recommend you to visit the ancient town. There are many ancient towns in Suzhou, each with its own characteristics, and you can also learn about the food in the ancient towns. Here are the relevant strategies.

Zhouzhuang Ancient Town

Address: Southwest of Kunshan, Suzhou

Zhouzhuang is the "No. 1 water town in China". The waterway here can lead directly to the door of the house, and the owner can enjoy it without leaving home. Can get on board. This is where Shen Wansan, the richest man in Jiangnan, made his fortune. When he comes here, he will not miss the dusk and morning. At that time, Zhouzhuang presented people with a simpler and more real beauty.

Fu'an Shaobing

Per capita: 9 yuan

The Fu'an Shaobing stall on Fu'an Bridge in Zhouzhuang is the only one without a semicolon. Packed with oil paint, covered with red paper, and tied with straw ropes, the Fu'an sesame seed cakes exude a strong Jiangnan ancient fragrance. Although it is a scone, the process is quite complicated. Each baked cake weighs 12 grams and has a pure taste that can be described as "thin, fragrant and crispy".

Wanti

Per capita: 70 yuan

Zhou’s story cannot escape Shen Wansan. It is said that Wan Ti is a must-have dish for Shen Wansan’s guests. After simmering for a day and night, the pig's trotters soup is bright red in color, moist and crispy, fat but not greasy. Tear off a piece of crispy meat and put it in your mouth. It melts in your mouth and overflows with aroma.

_Zhigu Town

Address: Wuzhong District, Suzhou City

This is a place name that is often mispronounced, and it is also an unforgettable place.

Zhizhi, known as "the first water town in China", has a history of more than 2,500 years and is one of the first batch of famous historical and cultural towns in China. There are 72 and a half Jiangnan bridges of various forms on the 5.6-kilometer-long river in Guzhen District. In addition, Lu Zhi also preserved the traditional national costumes of women in the Jiangnan water towns.

Tanggao

Per capita: 4 yuan

_There are four major snacks: pastries, pickles, crispy hoof, and rice wine. As long as you stroll around the straight old streets patiently, you can always find tempting and delicious snacks, and crab apple cake is a lovely and unforgettable delicacy.

Now, the Chinese begonia cake has a sweet burnt flavor, is filled with red bean paste, and the surface of the cake is covered with red and green silk and melon seeds. Soft and glutinous glutinous rice, crispy caramel on the surface, soft and slightly crispy, really special.

Kimchi

Per capita: 3.5-9 yuan/catty

In shops selling pickles, the shelves are always filled with all kinds of pickles. Sorted by bucket, suitable for porridge in the morning. The fermented bean curd has a mellow taste, the radish is crunchy and the pickles are only straight.

Tongli Ancient Town

Address: Wujiang District, Suzhou City

Tongli is one of the few places full of life among tourist attractions. If other ancient towns are tourists, tourists, and tourists, Tongli must be tourists, residents, and dogs.

In the morning, I saw smoke curling from cooking stoves, grandma washing clothes by the water, and houses of different styles. By noon, local residents had prepared meals and put up a board at the door. Just write a few words on it and the restaurant is ready for business.

Champion's Hoof

Per capita: 60 yuan

It is said that every tourist who comes to Tongli will take away a champion's hoof. Each hoof weighs more than 2 pounds. After hair removal, 18 kinds of Chinese herbal medicine are added and simmered in an iron pot. The stewed hooves have no pigment but are ruddy and attractive, fragrant and smooth.

Mudu Ancient Town

Address: West of Suzhou Ancient City

Mudu Ancient Town is an ancient town of the same age as Suzhou City, with a history of more than 2,500 years. It is said that Qianlong visited Mudu in the south of the Yangtze River six times. I think it’s not just because of the scenery in Mudu, but more importantly because Mudu is really delicious.

The delicacies and snacks in Mudu Ancient Town are not inferior, including the imperial snacks of Emperor Qianlong, jujube cakes, sweet and delicious pine nut candies, fragrant black rice, etc.

Zjugate cakes

Per capita: 10 yuan

When old Mudu people visit relatives and friends during the New Year, their families will definitely prepare pine nut and date cakes and fillings. The pine nut and jujube sesame cakes in my memory are sweet. Warm it up before eating. After heating, the jujube paste, lard, and pine nuts filled inside are particularly delicious. Especially lard, it will not melt and will ooze out after biting the outer layer, much like today's popping beads.

Black rice
