LiJi QingZhenGuan Review

Xuzhou people eat in Nanjing: Li Ji Guotie Muslim Restaurant I never thought there would be a restaurant with long queues in Nanjing? This one is in Dading Lane! It is very popular. We queued for a long time, maybe half an hour. It would be better if there were more people. One person queues while the others look for seats. The main reason is to queue for their most famous pot stickers. We ordered beef pot stickers, wontons, beef offal soup, spicy beef, beef tendon, tofu skin...the sauce is mixed with a dish of chili oil + vinegar!

🥟 Beef Pot Stickers: Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and juicy The first to appear is Li Ji's signature beef pot stickers. The pot stickers are golden and crispy just out of the pan, and the bottom is fried just right, which not only retains the toughness of the dough, but also adds a bit of crispness. Gently bite it open, and the fresh aroma of beef instantly blooms in your mouth. The meat is tender and juicy, which forms a sharp contrast with the crispness of the dough, which makes people have endless aftertaste. Every bite can feel the perfect fusion of the delicate beef and the crispness of the pot stickers. It is simply a feast for the taste buds. 🥣 Beef wontons: delicious soup, delicate meat Immediately afterwards, a bowl of steaming beef wontons was served. The wonton skin is thin and the filling is large. The beef filling is carefully prepared, and the meat is delicate and elastic. The soup base is clear and delicious. With a light bite, you can feel the mellowness of the beef and the sweetness of the soup intertwined in your mouth. Paired with a dish of balsamic vinegar, the taste of the whole dish is enhanced, making people unable to stop.

I was shocked by the queue at around 11:45 on Saturday. I turned around after the intersection and roughly estimated it was 50 meters. I asked the store staff and they said I had to wait for at least an hour, but if I didn't buy pot stickers, I almost didn't have to wait in line. So I ordered spicy beef tendon noodles for 25 yuan and waited for about 15 minutes before being served. Although the soup was red, it was not spicy, the beef tendon was soft and tender, and the soup was sweet.

I have feelings for Li Ji, which is always the top of the list of halal restaurants in my heart. The Pingshi Street store has been renovated and expanded by 2 times. The first time I went there at 9:30 in the morning, there were few people, and some uncles and aunts nearby were there as if it was morning tea. The beef pot stickers are crispy and juicy. Although they are not as crispy and hard as Jiang Youji's pot stickers, which are rare and can stand, the meat filling is still sufficient, and more green onions and ginger are used. The beef pan-fried buns and beef pot stickers are not as popular as the carnivores' taste, after all, the dough is thicker. The taste is similar, but the taste is different. The beef soup dumplings have thin and large skins, which can be regarded as the best beef soup dumplings in Nanjing. Beef wontons are always better than pork wontons. Unlike pork wontons, which are eaten with spicy oil, beef wontons are eaten with the delicious beef broth. They should be eaten while hot. I always like to pair them with pot stickers. They are salty, sweet, refreshing and light, so it is easy to eat the wonton noodles. Although beef siu mai is not amazing, it still has a fat and oily taste. The pickled mustard greens and shredded pork noodles are sweet and the texture of the noodles is also good. I tried the braised beef noodles today, which was a failure. The braised beef was relatively hard.

The old shop on Pingshi Street has been renovated and is clean and tidy, and the environment is also good. I want to go here to satisfy my cravings every once in a while. There is a new barbecue stall at the door. I bought 5 skewers of lamb for 3 yuan each. The taste is quite good and it can be ranked in the top ten in Nanjing. The pot sticker stall is right at the entrance. The pot stickers are crispy, the beef filling is fragrant and full of juice, and it is very delicious. It is worthy of being a time-honored brand. Old Nanjing people love this one the most. 7 yuan for 5 pieces. The braised beef cold noodles served in summer are 17 yuan/portion. The cold noodles are the taste I ate when I was a child. Every bite is full of memories. It's delicious! The vegetarian roast goose is 8.8 yuan/portion. It is a traditional stewed dish. There are not many good places. Li Ji's is still good. It is not too sweet and the taste is just right. The beef offal soup is 10 yuan, a big bowl, a lot of beef offal, I choked at the end, the soup is light and delicious, excellent. Dinner for two people, 57.8 yuan, very happy ~

The food at Li Ji is very good. They sell all kinds of raw beef soup dumplings and wontons. The most exciting thing is the large chunks of beef, braised, smoked, and dry-cut. The aroma of the meat wafts through the window, so tempting. So I decided to cut a small half pound of smoked beef to take home. The open window for freshly made dim sum is also steaming hot, and the pet dog that is not allowed to enter the door also comes in and runs around in the lobby, having a lot of fun.
