What is the origin of the famous dish dragon wonton soup?
The wonton soup is thin and tender, smooth and delicious, and the soup is thick and white, making it the best snack in Rongcheng. The name of the dragon wonton soup is not the boss's surname, but the founder, Zhang Wuguang, and his friends and three other guys discussed the opening of the wonton soup shop in the then "thick flower tea garden". When discussing the name of the shop, they borrowed the word "thick" from the "thick flower tea garden" and took the homophonic word "dragon" as the name (Sichuan dialect "thick" and "dragon" are homonyms), which also contained "Dragon and Tiger Leap". "Chaoshou" is a special name for Hundun in Sichuan. The name Chaoshou is probably because the two ends of the dough should be copied together when wrapping, so it is named. Chengdu's "Dragon wonton soup" 194 1 was opened in Yuelaichang, Chengdu, and moved to Xinjichang in the early 1950s, and then moved to the south section of Chunxi Road in the 1960s, with a history of more than 60 years.

When the "Dragon Manuscript" store opened, the signboard was written by the dean of the College of Literature of Sichuan University at that time. The signboard was written in gold on a red background and surrounded by two golden dragons. The calligraphy was vigorous and exquisite, and it became a leader among the snack signboards in Chengdu at that time, which attracted people's attention. Now the shop is recruiting for the late Zhao Yunyu, a famous Sichuan painter.

"Dragon wonton soup" was mainly engaged in original soup, stewed chicken, seafood, clear soup, hot and sour, red oil and other varieties of wonton soup at the beginning of its opening. After1960s, it expanded its business scope, adding cakes, snacks and other varieties, and was named "Chengdu Famous Snacks" by the Chengdu municipal government by the famous pastry masters Zhang Qingyun and Chef Liu Long. Today's "Longwonton soup" shop has developed into a large-scale comprehensive snack restaurant with a business area of more than 2,000 square meters. The first floor is a casual snack and refreshments, and its business varieties are mainly seasonal snacks, which are cheap and most popular with ordinary consumers. The second floor of the restaurant is provided with mid-range snacks and Sichuan cuisine, which is rich and frugal, suitable for entertaining friends and relatives; On the third floor, high-end snack banquets are provided, and folk music is played. The dining environment is simple and elegant. Since the expansion of Longchaoshou, due to good management, the business continues to be booming, and customers are full every day. It has become a rare restaurant in Chengdu that has to wait in line for dinner without making reservations in advance. According to the statistics of 2004, the total annual turnover of this store (single store) reached a record of more than 40 million yuan, and the annual average daily sales was nearly 1 1 10,000 yuan. "Dragon wonton soup" was awarded the title of "China Time-honored Brand" by the Ministry of Internal Trade of the People's Republic of China on 1995.
