JIANGSU HUAIAN HOTEL·RESTAURANT

Huai'an Hotel is an old hotel. The restaurant also hosted various receptions in the past. The environment is good. You can go for a walk in the Jinghu Lake next door before and after dining. I found a common problem in Huai'an restaurants. The front desk service is enthusiastic, but the kitchen ignores individual customers. The chef is probably busy with the reception task. The Zhuqiao soft-shelled turtle I ordered was delicious and sticky, and the soft-shelled turtle was not soft and sticky. The braised Boli lamb was good. I knew it was spicy, but it was a pity that it was salty. The taste was heavy, which shouldn't be the case.

Beautiful environment, good taste and good service attitude.

The outdoor scenery of Huai'an Hotel is nice, and the lobby is also grand. The Chinese restaurant hall is where the breakfast buffet is. For a star-rated hotel, the environment is average, and it can only be said to be clean. There are very few dishes here except for a few classic specialties. There are set meals for those with many people, but it is not recommended for those with few people. It is not as good as the small restaurants outside. It is said that the Zhuqiao turtle soup here is a specialty. I ordered two bowls. The method is standard. There is too much pepper sprinkled, and it becomes saltier and saltier as you eat. The cattail here is a specialty. Although it is not in season, you always have to try the shrimp cattail. In fact, it is cooked with small sea cucumbers, so the soup is still fresh. It is not the fresh shrimp you think. The cattail actually has no taste, just a crispy taste like bamboo shoots, but not as delicious as bamboo shoots. It costs 88 yuan per serving and is purely for fame. It is not recommended. Huai dumplings are meat filling wrapped in wonton skin. They were cooked for a little long and some of the skin fell off. The meat filling was quite delicious. Shrimp soy sauce, coriander and sesame oil were added to the clear soup to make it flavorful, but it was really average. It was not as delicious as the wontons you make at home, and not as chewy as dumplings.

I tried it once and felt it was pretty good. After all, Huaiyang cuisine is still very good!

The environment is elegant, the service is first-class, and the Huaiyang flavor is good.
