What travelers say:
In 2014, Caoqiao became famous overnight because of the TV series "A Bite of China 2". I went there to check it out. As expected, it was packed with people because of the CCTV effect. You know, we locals usually go to another halal restaurant a hundred meters away. After seeing the environment and eating the pot stickers, I was even more puzzled about CCTV's choice.

Open the lid, turn it a few more times, and finally pour out the remaining oil in the pot. Now you have a pot of beef potstickers fried to golden brown and full of beef juice. The meaty aroma is overflowing when you bite it, and the skin is particularly crispy and delicious. Delicious!
It is such a blessing to be able to eat delicious pot stickers anytime in Nanjing! Caoqiao Pot Stickers, the leader of Nanjing Pot Stickers, specially picked a non-meal time to eat pot stickers. Looking at the golden pot stickers in the pot, the happiness index is soaring. Wontons are also very delicious, with a high cost performance. A bowl of wontons can fill you up if you have a small stomach. The store is newly renovated, with more seats, which greatly reduces the waiting time~
I read an article about nostalgia for the old south city online, which wrote about the beef pot stickers that I have eaten since childhood, and my taste buds were stimulated. It happened that I had to go out today, so I took a detour to come here to have breakfast~ Caoqiao Beef Pot Stickers Restaurant has been opened at this location for many years. The store is not small. It is right at the entrance of Pingshi Street Community, right after Zhangfuyuan Metro Station. Pot stickers: golden skin, crispy, and the meat inside is light, sweet and juicy. One or two or five, it’s really a familiar taste. Wontons: A big bowl, the skin is very thin, sprinkled with chopped green onions, and the soup base is very delicious, wow~ The environment is a typical old snack environment. I sweated a lot on this day~The store owner is very polite, smiling and welcoming, and there are many old customers.
I used to eat at the old Qijiawan beef pot stickers restaurant when I was in school. I had to come in and try it this time. Maybe I didn't come at mealtime, so there were only two people inside. Beef pot stickers 7 yuan/5 pieces: the skin is very thick and hard, the filling is quite thin, and the juice is relatively full. It used to be fresh, fragrant, and crispy when you bite it. Is this still the old shop? I feel that it can't be compared with Li Rongxing in Nanhu! Beef wonton 6: It looks like a big bowl, with a lot of soup, but it can really be said to be clear! Soup! A little! Water! There is no taste of beef soup at all! The wontons look big, but you can't eat the meat when you bite it? I thought I was too angry and ate too fast, so I tasted it carefully for the second time and bit it slowly, only to find that the meat filling was too thin, so the dough was wrapped in a thin layer, and it felt more like skin when I ate it in my mouth. The overall taste is very poor. Summary: It is very different from the past. It is said that it has been on the 2nd episode of Tongue. Anyway, I have seen both 1 and 2. 1 is the classic and 2 is just for show. This statement really makes sense. I am also impressed that the signature pot stickers and wontons that are most impressive can be made like this! There are still braised food at the door. I don’t want to buy it this time. I am a little disappointed. I hope that the merchants can make food conscientiously and not think about how to cut the fillings or add more water to dilute it to save costs. No one is stupid these days!
It's a very famous restaurant. I heard about it and went to try it. The taste is good. Although the environment is not very advantageous, it is also very beautiful in its simplicity. The beef pot stickers are a must-order. They are made with great care, fragrant, crispy, and very chewy. The beef is also very flavorful and has a good taste. There are many people queuing for pot stickers here, so be prepared. But it is worth waiting, and it is worth coming to taste the local delicacy.
Caoqiao Muslim Beef Pot Stickers and Dumplings Shop has been open for more than 30 years and has always been doing well. Since it was featured in "A Bite of China 2", the business has become even more popular, and there is a long queue every time you come. You can smell the aroma from a long distance when you pass by the door, and you can see the golden pot stickers covering the pan when you get closer. The aroma of beef oozes out from the golden coat, mixed with the aroma of rapeseed oil after high temperature. The taste is distinct after entering the mouth, one side is soft and tender with a little toughness, and the other side is crispy and has a burnt aroma. On the crispy side, you can still see fine cracks, and a "click" sound is transmitted from the mouth to the ears when you bite it, and it feels more and more fragrant. Using pure rapeseed oil, the pot stickers are golden and bright; the cows must be slaughtered by an imam (hōng is translated as master) and made with meat of the day. Do not add too much water and seasoning to taste the original flavor of the beef.
Qijiawan used to be a Hui Muslim settlement, so there were many beef and mutton shops. Although it was demolished on a large scale, some shops are still left. Most beef potstickers in Nanjing are named Qijiawan. Caoqiao Dumplings was once featured in the "Tianjian Erli", which is undoubtedly the best publicity. The environment is just like a fly restaurant, and the service is also up to you. Fortunately, the food is OK, and the beef fried buns are more special. The smoked beef is also good, relatively crispy and tender. I ordered a bowl of beef tripe noodles, which tasted OK.
