A Feast for the Senses in the Wild: From Dawn to Starlit Banquets, Savor the Poetry of Anji in Every Bite!

🍳 **Morning Mountain Flavors: A Breakfast Infused with Anji’s Spirit** Open the window, and the morning mist over bamboo forests carries the aroma of breakfast into your room—this is the signature overture of Xinke’s morning feast. Start with a bowl of soft, sticky rice porridge, accompanied by thoughtfully prepared sides: freshly made handmade pork buns, crispy fried dough sticks, local highland corn, boiled eggs, and sweet potatoes, paired with homemade pickled radish and stir-fried bamboo shoots with preserved vegetables—a tangy, refreshing wake-up call. 🍽 **The Art of Dining: A Rustic Poem by the Hearth** Xinke’s restaurant doesn’t rely on elaborate techniques but wins hearts with "seasonal" and "authentic" flavors. ▪ **Bamboo Forest Free-Range Chicken Soup**: Slow-simmered to an amber broth, sprinkled with wild goji berries—so delicious you’ll crave three bowls in a row. ▪ **Reservoir Fish Head with Tofu**: Fish head stewed in milky tofu broth, while the body is pan-fried and drizzled with perilla sauce—tender and free of any earthy taste. ▪ **Explore Wild Bamboo Shoots in Different Ways**: Braised with salted pork, stir-fried with preserved vegetables (perfect with rice), or oil-braised—the restaurant’s shoots are incredibly tender, earning rave reviews from guests. ▫ **Long Table Banquet Under the Stars**: On summer nights, dine by the pool under candlelight, with the Milky Way pouring into your glass. ▫ **Mountain Coziness by the Fireplace**: In winter, roast tangerines and rice cakes by the fireplace, sip Anji white tea, and listen to the crackling fire—the warmth of mountain living right in your hands. 🌿 **Wild Food Adventures: A Flavorful Surprise on Hiking Trails** Xinke’s "delicious radius" extends from the restaurant to hidden mountain gems— - **Butler’s Secret Routes**: Forage for wild fruits and visit local farms. ✅ **Deep Stream Valley Wild Strawberry Grove**: In June, follow the butler upstream, picking lantern fruit and raspberries along the way—rinse and eat, their sweetness like dew from the forest. ✅ **Gaojiatang Village Tofu Workshop**: A 10-minute walk to watch masters craft tofu with stone grinders. Try a warm block dipped in soy sauce—the rich bean aroma is unforgettable. ✅ **Majianong Baked Sesame Cake Stand**: Crispy, crumbly dried vegetable and pork cakes baked in a wood-fired barrel, best paired with chilled herbal jelly to beat the heat. 🚶 **Food Finds Along the Trail** For those craving more culinary adventures, Xinke is the perfect starting point— **Recommended stop: "Jiajia Shop" for baked sesame cakes—a local favorite, also serving marinated tofu. **Grape Picking: Just a 5-minute drive from the homestay, a vineyard offers delicious grapes and a farmhouse restaurant nearby. **Newly opened "Linjian Yayuan" in Zhangcun Town: A century-old courtyard restored into a restaurant, where the ambiance and dishes are equally remarkable. >**Xinke’s Food Notes** >The essence of mountain living lies in the crisp sound of spring bamboo shoots breaking soil, the silver flash of stream fish leaping, and the warmth of waiting by a wood-fired stove. >Let your taste buds wander between bamboo forests and starry skies. **One meal reveals the seasons; one flavor captures the landscape.** At Xinke, food is never just sustenance—it’s the tea steam in morning mist, the wine songs during night swims, and the healing love letter the wild writes to city dwellers. ✨
