GRANDMA'S FAMILY FOOD

Of course, it is different from my grandmother's house, and this one is not Su Che cuisine, it should belong to Sichuan and Guizhou local cuisine, because basically every dish is spicy, but it is very popular and there is often a queue.

Near the entrance of Ziyin Tunnel, right next to the hotel where we stayed, we were too lazy to walk so we had lunch here. There were not many people, the environment was OK, and it was a bit ancient. You order dishes by looking at the dishes and picking up bamboo sticks. When the dishes are served, the waiter will bring a bucket of rice to the table. If you don't want to eat it, just ask the waiter to take it away, otherwise you will probably have to pay for it. [Secret Braised Pork] This is not spicy, the bamboo shoots are very tender, and the meat is cut into small pieces, but it is a bit fat and not crispy enough. The aroma will be stronger if it is more flavorful. [Spicy Chicken with Blood] Spicy, the blood is very tender, but a bit broken. [Hot Mixed Organic Vegetables] The taste is good, and it relieves greasiness and spiciness. [Earth Pot Chicken] When you order the dishes, it is placed in a "chicken". It looks good, but the actual amount is not as much as you see. The chicken pieces are cut too small. Although it is easy to taste, it is too troublesome to eat and it is difficult to choose. [Farmer's Pork Liver] The pork liver slices are very thin and tender. [Steamed Dumplings] Dim sum, the taste is nothing special. Guizhou cuisine is generally heavy in oil and spicy, and almost every dish is filled with peppercorns, garlic, ginger, chili peppers, etc. If you can't eat spicy food, you can ask the waiter to make it less spicy when ordering. The price of the dishes is moderate.

Boss, a light purple thermos bottle was lost at table number 7 tonight. Go pick it up tomorrow.

The taste is good, the environment is clean and the service is good.
