TONG QING LOU

I ate here at night when I was on a business trip a few years ago. It is a time-honored restaurant in Wuhu, opened in a new shopping mall. The whole decoration looks quite grand, more suitable for business banquets, holidays for family and friends, etc. In Anhui, the signature Anhui dish stinky mandarin fish must be ordered, "Salad veal", "Signature Jiangshui tofu", "Pork ribs and rice cakes" are also very cost-effective. Personally, I think it tastes better than Geng Fuxing, which I ate the next day😋.
