老城糖水铺(珠海东店)

I'm curious about the Qingbuliang here. The Qingbuliang I've eaten in Ningbo is not very tasty. The price of the syrup is generally around 10 yuan. Most syrup shops are like this. The neighborhood shops are cheaper. The Qingbuliang refreshed my cognition. The ingredients are too rich~ lotus seeds, coix seeds, lily, white fungus, red dates, wolfberry, and something like ginseng, which has a bit of Chinese medicine flavor. It's really nourishing, and everything is delicious! Lotus seeds, coix seeds, and lilies are all cooked without a hard texture. I don't like white fungus, but this white fungus is very crisp and tastes good. The sweetness of the syrup is not greasy. The coconut milk tortoise jelly is also full. The medicinal taste of the tortoise jelly is not strong. The coconut milk used has a much smoother taste. Sweet syrups and other things really need to be eaten in cities close to the equator. They are cheap, delicious, and have plenty of ingredients. What the hell are they made in other cities?

I bought a free flight ticket from China Eastern Airlines on the weekend and flew to Beihai Weizhou Island this week. It is indeed worth staying for a few more days, but since there are not so many holidays, I had to finish it in a hurry. The sugar water shop is very famous and well-known. The coffee shop on the corner of the street is also great.

At the Old Town Dessert Shop in Beihai Old Street, I ordered the signature Qingbuliang, which is rich in ingredients, such as Tremella, Coix Seed, Wolfberry, Longan, etc. I also ordered the Coconut Milk Guiling Cream, which has a strong coconut milk flavor. I also ordered the taro coconut milk sago. A bowl of it in summer is very comfortable.

There are many sweet soup shops and dessert shops on both sides of Beihai Old Street. It was the sign of this sweet soup shop that attracted my footsteps. This old city sweet soup shop is located relatively inside Beihai Old Street, and you have to walk a little further. I found it here following the footsteps of the reviews, and it is still worth a try. I especially recommend the sweet soup and snacks here, which are rich in variety, cheap and delicious. I personally prefer taro sweet soup, water chestnut snow fungus, black sesame glutinous rice cake...etc., each one is delicious, and I wish I could have several stomachs. The sweet soup here feels refreshing and cool in the mouth, not warm or dry, and is very suitable for a big bowl in the afternoon. The snacks here are exquisite and full of fillings. The fillings are all peanuts and sesame, very fragrant and sweet but not greasy. Snacks with sweet soup are the perfect combination. The overall environment of this store is very clean, with several long tables, simple and tidy, and antique everywhere. The background plant wall outside the lobby is the highlight. It is a beautiful scenery to meet three or five friends and take a break casually.

I loved Qingbuliang so much during my trip to Sanya, so when I saw it on Beihai Old Street, I ordered it without hesitation. While waiting for the Qingbuliang, I bought some pearl powder at a nearby shop. A bag was a steal at 30 yuan, much cheaper than in Xiamen. When the Qingbuliang arrived, it was a little... Hmm, let's just say the Qingbuliang in Beihai and the Qingbuliang in Sanya are completely different.

I went there with a colleague while strolling through Old Street. Even though it was almost at the end of the street, we still found it. I ordered the recommended taro and coconut milk tapioca pearls, and my colleague ordered tortoise jelly. There's a group buy for tortoise jelly! It's a great deal! I'm afraid of bitterness, so I skipped it. But when I tried it, it had no bitterness at all, just like jelly. As for my taro and coconut milk tapioca pearls, the taro was a little firm, but very sweet. Overall, it was delicious! Highly recommended!
