I've been to A Bite of China, it's really good, the environment is average, but the taste is very good, not the oily and spicy taste of the skewers in Chengdu, this one feels more fragrant, not so irritating, very affordable, two pieces of beef on a skewer, very tender and tasty, the egg fried rice is dry and fragrant without oil, very delicious!
Seeing the name, I found it a little funny. It seems like an insult! [Snickering] I learned a lot after listening to the store manager's introduction! It turns out that this is the origin of Niuhua Town in Leshan, Sichuan. [Knowledge Point] Niuhua Town is a thousand-year-old salt town. It is the place where Li Bing, the governor of Shu County, first discovered "salt irrigation". There is an evergreen Liuhua Creek at the foot of the mountain behind the town. Because "Hua" in ancient Chinese is a homophone for "Hua", over time, "Liu" became "Niu", and "Liuhua" was pronounced as "Niuhua" and got the name. [Love] It turns out to be the homophone of a stream! In the third season of "A Bite of China", the founder of Niuhua Bapo Malatang, "Bapo", is actually a nearly 60-year-old uncle! When he was a child, he was the eighth child in his family. He had six older sisters and a brother, and a younger sister. Because life was hard at the time, his parents were able to raise their children smoothly, so the brother was called "Qi Po" and he was called "Ba Po". That's it! [Strong][Love][Strong] [Dishes] This restaurant was shown in the third season of "A Bite of China"! Awesome! Chuanchuan, Chuanchuan shops from Sichuan are all similar, the manager is very enthusiastic [love], and also taught everyone how to play Chuanchuan, which is quite interesting! The tripe is very fresh and tender, thumbs up [strong][love][strong] The chilled tofu is also delicate and smooth. The fried skewers are very fragrant and delicious, better than the hot pot skewers [come on] [service] on call, the manager personally introduced, very enthusiastic [love] However, it is recommended that the private room be equipped with a full-time waiter to take better care of it, after all, the waiter can more easily see the needs of customers in the hall, and the private room is relatively closed, so there will be a situation where you have to go to the hall to call the waiter over.
Only know about Suji in Leshan? Niuhua, a thousand-year-old ancient town, is the hidden gem. 🔥 [Niuhua Bapo Malatang (Main Branch)] 📍200 meters east of Provincial Highway 104 in Niuhua Town, at the entrance of the commercial pedestrian street Chengdu residents, even those flying in, come here to try this original Malatang hotpot! The red soup base featured on "A Bite of China" is a must-try, with a uniquely spicy and fresh flavor. The atmosphere is reminiscent of a down-to-earth streetside establishment, and the all-you-can-eat price is 50 yuan per person. [Niuhua Zhouji Malatang (Main Branch)] 📍Near Niuhua Town Beef lovers' paradise! The signature spicy beef is incredibly tender, and the pickled pepper beef is incredibly sour and spicy. The liver is meticulously prepared, leaving a crispy crunch. Lines start forming at 5 PM, so it's best to avoid peak hours. [Yanjing Oil-Braised Sweet Skin Duck] 📍Nanhua Palace Commercial Street, Provincial Highway 104 Freshly fried sweet skin duck, with crispy skin and tender meat, and the sugar coating is just right without being greasy! The sweet and sour spare ribs have a perfect balance of sweet and sour, and the braised beef is beautifully textured and deeply flavored. I recommend buying a whole duck for a better deal, and it can be vacuum-packed to go. [Jiujiu Tofu Pudding] 📍Niuhua Town Commercial Street A great breakfast/lunch option! The tofu pudding is more tender than pudding🥄, and you can choose your toppings: pig intestines, beef, or shredded chicken. The thickened broth is rich, topped with soybeans and chopped green onions, and it's a true childhood favorite. It pairs perfectly with the kabocha (sweet biscuit)—be sure to pair it with the egg cake from the shop next door. [Lei Si Niang Egg Cake] 📍No. 282, Niuhua Town Commercial Street The Hermès of egg cakes! This first-of-its-kind double-layered egg cake is overflowing with fillings. The three-beef flavor is incredibly meaty, and the creamy Oreo version is surprisingly delicious. The auntie makes it to order, and watching the batter slowly rise is incredibly satisfying. 💡Tips: 1. For Malatang, it's recommended to go before 11:00 AM or 5:00 PM to avoid peak hours. 2. For sweet-skinned duck, choose freshly fried! The texture will deteriorate after cooling. 3. Remember to double the ingredients for the egg cake, and add more meat floss for a more satisfying filling. #LeshanFood #NiuhuaMalaTang #SweetSkinDuck #SichuanSnacks #GuzhenFood
