临江后街鳝丝(临江店)

This restaurant is quite famous in the neighborhood. Its signature dish is braised eel slices. It is delicious. The eel meat is very tender and the seasoning is good.

Spring and summer are a good season, and there is a bumper harvest of plump and tender yellow eels [StarEyes] 🌿Taste: After boiling, the yellow eel is deboned and shredded, which are divided into eel bones, eel shreds and eel segments. The signature is eel shreds and eel segments, 90 yuan per catty, and "fried eel bones" are free. One catty of yellow eel, 0.55 catties are cut off. The four of us recommended two catties of eel shreds and one catty of eel segments, which was very satisfying👏 The yellow eel is cooked in a hot way, with sufficient ingredients, medium spicy, and heavy taste. Then have a bite of cold Emei snow, and eat it heartily💥After eating the eel shreds, you can add noodles for free. Soak it for a while, and it tastes delicious I recommend this store's "braised meat" and braised pig's trotters, which are fat but not greasy, and are salty and fragrant. 60 yuan per catty, and the combination of the two is about one and a half catties. The eel waited for an hour, and the braised meat was particularly fragrant while waiting. 🚗Transportation: Linjiang Town is 10 kilometers away from Leshan City, and it is very convenient to drive there.

Once in Leshan, my main goal was to eat! We departed from Chengdu on Friday night and slept in naturally the next day. We chose to stay near Leshan Port, which was a brilliant decision! We woke up on Saturday and ate right away! 🥫Breakfast: A basket of steamed buns (3 stars) The signature dish is fresh meat, crab roe, and shrimp (the shrimp are truly fresh). It can be paired with tofu pudding, shredded pork soup, fermented glutinous rice wine with osmanthus flowers, and red dates and snow fungus. It's quite delicious, but a bit salty, especially for children, and a bit pricey. 🌤️Morning: City near Leshan Port Take a walk and check in at Leshan's cultural and creative attractions (4 stars) There are adorable little Buddha cartoon characters, tons of postcards and stamps featuring Leshan specialties, and it's quite unique. There's a "Leshan" sign by the river, which is fun to take photos. There's also a giant wooden fish that the kids all want to hold. From here, you can overlook the Leshan Giant Buddha and even see the "Sleeping Buddha" from afar. 🍜Lunch: Guzhenji Bobo Chicken (4 stars) I've been to Leshan at least 10 times, and my favorite Bobo Chicken is Guzhenji. They offer red oil, Sichuan peppercorn, and five-spice options. Since having kids, I always order the five-spice option, and they love it too. Their chicken soup rice is the best porridge I've ever had. In the summer, Bobo Chicken is usually served cold, so if you're traveling with kids, it's a good option. Friends can ask the restaurant to simmer their food in the hot pot. Must-try items include: chicken feet, chicken tendons, tribute vegetables, and yellow throat. Lei Si Niang Egg Baked Cake (4 stars) Aside from being a bit pricey, it's perfectly fine. The dough is perfectly soft and glutinous, and the fillings are generous. It's a must-try every time I visit Leshan. Zhaishan Zhicha (5 stars) The matcha is their signature dish, with a rich, authentic flavor. Highly recommended for milk tea or matcha lovers. All of the above restaurants are near Leshan Port, so it's a complete food and city walk trip. 🌤️Afternoon: After the kids' nap, we went to the Little House (4 stars), a must-visit for Leshan's literary and artistic scene. The Little House houses an independent bookstore, a cultural and creative store, and a cafe. Each has its own unique style, yet they all share a common aesthetic. It's a great place to browse and take photos! 🥘 Dinner: Linjiang Back Street Shredded Eel (5 stars) + Feng Si Niang's Cross-legged Beef (4 stars) Both restaurants are on Jiaxing Road, a local favorite. Every time I go to Leshan, I crave Linjiang Shredded Eel. To keep the kids happy, I order it mildly spicy. Just rinse it in plain water and they're good to go. The combination of shredded eel and noodles is incredible! A must-try! Aside from the heavy oil, it's incredibly delicious. I've yet to find a better shredded eel than this one. Just a few hundred meters away is Cross-legged Beef, another local must-try. I ordered blood curd, beef, and lotus root, and the kids loved it! 🌛Evening: Due to flooding, the river cruises were suspended, so we had to digest our food by the river. The Big Buddha is also available for night tours, and the scenery is beautiful when it's illuminated. We took the kids for a stroll on the electric scooters at night, and they loved it. It was cool and fun. 🍢Midnight Snack: Fried Skewers (3 stars) After the kids went to bed, we had another meal of fried skewers, a must-try in Leshan. I'm not a huge fan of the heavy oil and salt, but the joy of a skewers meal and a late-night beer was worth it. #NationalDayTravelDiary #WhereToWalkThisWeekend #TryAuthenticOldBoutiques #LocalSpecialSnacks #TravelWithCuteKids

Leshan's delicious food is the kind that makes you travel all the way to the city just for the food. Avoid the long lines at popular restaurants and explore the old alleys to find authentic, traditional flavors. This time, I'm sharing six long-standing restaurants frequented by Leshan locals. I've personally tested them and they're guaranteed to be a hit. Bring loose clothing and a generous stomach. 🔸 Huang Sihai Yellow Chicken Bobo Chicken This time-honored restaurant near Leshan Port boasts a truly unique broth made with traditional techniques. The red oil is fragrant but not overpowering, while the Sichuan peppercorns offer a refreshing, numbing aroma. The chicken is tender, the tendons are chewy, and the lotus root slices and potatoes soak up the broth, making it incredibly flavorful. The price is around 40 yuan per person, and the spiciness level can be adjusted, so even those who don't like spicy food can give it a try. 📍Address: No. 208, Binjiang Road South (near Leshan Port) 🔸 Linjiang Back Street Shredded Eel The eel is freshly shredded and fried, deboned, and the texture is even more tender than noodles. Patchouli and oil residue are the perfect finishing touches, creating a spicy and nuanced flavor. The broth is highly recommended for rice or noodles; it's so fragrant you can enjoy several bowls in a row. For 50 yuan per person, you'll be completely satisfied. 📍Address: No. 208, Binjiang Road South 🔸 Fujie Huajie Chicken Feet Their chicken feet are braised to perfection, perfectly tender and boneless. The rich garlic flavor permeates even the bones, and the pickled peppers offer a satisfying sour and spicy kick. Enjoy a platter of chicken feet to try multiple flavors, or take away as a snack or with beer. Price: around 35 yuan per person. A bowl of ice jelly is recommended to help with the spiciness. 📍Address: No. 226, Binjiang Road South 🔸 Wang Haoer and Ji Liuniang Sweet Skin Duck Leshan sweet skin duck is a top-tier dish, featuring a crispy skin coated in amber sugar, and firm, fragrant, braised meat. It's even more flavorful when served cold. Half a duck is around 68 yuan, and it can be vacuum-packed and taken on the go, making it a great souvenir. 📍Address: 306 Jiaxing Road, Shizhong District 🔸 Jinsulu Liusan BBQ A community restaurant with over 30 years of experience, this spot is grilled fresh over charcoal, creating a smoky atmosphere. The pork belly is charred and juicy, the pork ribs are crispy and tender, and the duck tongues are chewy and plump. For vegetarians, we recommend the thinly sliced, crispy, and fragrant potato chips, which are a great way to relieve greasiness. It's especially popular during late-night snack time. 📍Address: 1209 Gaoba Road (Building 4, Bangtai International Community) 🔸 Niuhua Zhu's Tofu Pudding A great breakfast choice. The tender tofu pudding is topped with crispy pork, sauerkraut, and peanuts, and thickened with a thick sauce. Paired with steamed beef pancakes, it's a hearty and filling meal for just 15 yuan per person. 📍Address: No. 93, East Street 📝 Practical Tips:   - It's recommended to plan a full day: visit the Giant Buddha in the morning and start eating along the way at noon;   - Most of the established restaurants are concentrated along Binjiang Road, making it easy to get around on shared e-bikes;   - Try to avoid peak meal times, as you might have to wait for a table, especially on weekends;   - Sweet-skinned duck and chicken feet can be vacuum-packed, making them convenient for taking home and enjoying later. Leshan's culinary offerings don't stop here, but these six restaurants are enough to give you a taste of the city's culinary essence. Save your list and head out any weekend! #TasteAuthenticOldBoutiques #OldStreetOldBoutiques #HometownSnacksIPick
