XI HE RESTAURANT Review

Xihe Wuxi Cuisine on Zhongnan Road, the building was formerly a hotel. The catering part of Xihe is on the first floor, and it is not clear whether there is a second floor. The layout has small tables for individual customers, private rooms that can accommodate one to three tables, and the open kitchen is also clear at a glance. It seems to be separated from Xixin. I don’t know if it is a sub-brand or independent, but the characteristic snails are still the signature. Because it was a family banquet, I took pictures of the first few cold dishes, which were still quite delicate and traditional in taste. The old braised pork liver was solid in the mouth, the fried fish sauce was moist and sweet, and the hot dishes were stone pot baked taro and soup snails. The others were also at the same level, and I was generally satisfied.

"Shrimp Soup Snail" is actually very delicious, very delicious, the soup should be made with ham, there are white shrimps in it, the snails are very fresh, the taste is slightly spicy "Three White Fried Dough Sticks" contains Taihu Three Whites, silver fish, white fish, white shrimps, just like stuffing, and a little green onion, very delicious "Secret Fan Bones" have two flavors, steamed and pepper salt, the taste is good, not woody, not greasy, just right "Plum Pork Liver" is very light and graceful pork liver, delicious, with telephone plums in it, sour and sweet, also the taste of Wuxi "Secret Tea Fragrance Chicken" is very soft, can be boned, and tastes very delicious "Shepherd's Purse Fish Wonton" There are two kinds of wontons, one is shepherd's purse fish, and the other is wild rice shrimp, shepherd's purse fish tastes good, very fresh "Magnolia Cake" Wuxi specialty, I think it is fried Yuanxiao with meat filling [Mint] Environment: Okay, good [Service Bell] Service: Very good

Looking at the comments, during the New Year, the whole family basically packed a table to eat together, and the hall was full. Parking at the door is better and there are more parking spaces. The environment is slightly disappointed, more messy, tables and chairs are placed close, and smoking can be indoors. The service is OK and the response is faster. Because of the New Year, the menu was replaced with temporary, and many dishes that I wanted to eat were not found. The overall level of food should belong to the level of popular dishes with local characteristics. [Sanbai fritters] Because a lot of large pieces of three white, the fritters themselves are hard and dry, and there is more river flavor than ordinary fritters. The taste is one level more, and the taste is very good, but it feels really oily after eating. [Crab powder hoof tendon] Very good, there are many crab meat, hoof tendon is soft. [Silver fish scrambled eggs], there are more silver fish, very delicious. [Celery mushrooms] [Brown sugar cake] is quite satisfactory. Can be better.

The Xixin Hotel, known for its soup snails, has as large a variety of dishes as ever, and the taste is authentic Wuxi. There are also many flavors of soup snails, sauces, chicken soup, etc., Tianmu Lake fish head is super large, fish balls are fresh and tender.

The special home-cooked restaurant at the door of the house, the business is very good
