Quiet courtyard, ancient attic, delicious dishes! This authentic Lijiang cuisine must not be missed!
If you don't live nearby, you may miss this restaurant. . . Because although the Lijiang Ancient Town is not big, if you live at the other end of the ancient town, it is still a distance to come here.
It was already past six o'clock in the evening when we arrived at the B&B. The two of us were hungry. After listening to the B&B owner's check-in instructions, we quickly asked the owner to recommend several local delicious restaurants. Looking at the distance, this one is only more than 200 meters away from us, which is perfect for us who are hungry.
✅Environment
First of all, let's talk about the environment of this restaurant, because before the dishes are served, the feeling of a restaurant is the environment of this restaurant.
This restaurant is a typical Lijiang style. There are flowers on the wall at the door to welcome you. When you enter the door, you will feel the small bridge and flowing water. You can sit in the courtyard and enjoy the starry sky, and you can go to the second floor attic and look out the window at the Lijiang Ancient Town under the night. Although you can't see the whole of Lijiang Ancient City, you can see the people coming and going in the courtyard.
✅Secondly, let's talk about the dishes of this restaurant:
The overall style is Lijiang, selling some Lijiang specialties, such as water-based Yanghua, baked banana leaf beef, jasmine scrambled eggs, etc. In addition, this restaurant also has grilled fish. If you have been eating Lijiang specialties these days, you might as well order a grilled fish for two people, which is hot and refreshing.
‼ ️We have been there twice and ordered all the special dishes. I would like to recommend some of the food we have eaten!
Braised banana leaf beef
This dish is our favorite. The beef retains sufficient moisture under the protection of banana leaves, so it is very tender. It is very tasty and goes well with rice when cooked with seasonings.
Iron plate mountain tofu
It is actually Japanese tofu. After frying, it is fried with diced peppers, diced mushrooms, and diced fungus, and then thickened. It has both the sweetness of tofu and the fragrance of mushrooms.
Matsutake Chicken Soup
I don't know when I developed the habit of drinking soup. When you come to Yunnan, you can't miss all kinds of mushroom soup. Have a bowl of nutritious Matsutake Chicken Soup to sweep away the fatigue of many days of travel.
Rumi Special Grilled Fish
If you are tired of Lijiang dishes, you might as well order a grilled fish. The overall taste is good, but it is a bit salty. . .
Stir-fried Water Yanghua
Friends who have been to Lijiang know that water Yanghua is a specialty here. It can be stir-fried and tastes very tender. The taste of this fried food is not bad, but it is a little oily.
