Eatmaker Banshan

It's a very unique place. The dishes are very attentive. The ingredients are natural and fresh. The stir-fried shrimps are very popular with me. Every dish can be a story. I will come again if I have the chance.

Unexpectedly, the dishes located in the mountains can be so fashionable. Local ingredients, local mountain spring water, plus a boss who knows how to eat, it's hard not to think it's good. It is said that tourists and locals living in the surrounding farmhouses will come to Chijiang for a meal. I stayed in Zhenzhu for one night and had three meals at Chijiang, and the dishes for each meal were not repeated. From old geese to free-range chickens, local pig head cakes and bacon, different shrimps are cooked in different ways, hot-fried green shell shrimps have a glutinous feeling of raw stir-frying, and shrimps cooked with moldy dried vegetables are a creative combination of traditional and fresh ingredients. The combination of Shaoxing cabbage and local winter bamboo shoots is touching. From braised to soup to made sheep cakes, the methods of Huzhou sheep also reflect the characteristics of Hu sheep that are not smelly or greasy. I am very happy that my friend's organization this time has allowed me to find another good place. I will go out more in 2020, and I will definitely go to Chijiang again

This Chijiang Banshan is a hidden internet celebrity restaurant in Changxing. It is quite hidden and difficult to find. The owner is from Shanghai. The dishes are quite exquisite and the environment is also very unique. It is much better than the surrounding farmhouse dishes.

The restaurant is located in the B&B Zhenzhu@Guzhu. The owner is a Shanghai gourmet who has a deep understanding of food. He has unique insights into the ingredients, cooking methods, and food perceptions of the world. The owner also collects home-brewed wine to entertain people who are destined to meet him. The owner cooks food, following the concept of "seasonal and original flavor", strictly selecting ecological ingredients, eliminating all synthetic seasonings such as MSG and chicken essence, inheriting the excellent folk hand-made craftsmanship, and restoring the original flavor of the food in the most authentic way. Photos cannot show more, you must try it if you have the chance.

Many Michelin restaurants in Europe are located in the countryside, but diners still flock to them. Chijiang is such a restaurant hidden in the bamboo forest of Guzhu Village in Changxing. Several Shanghai uncles who know the business only use local specialties such as bamboo forest chicken/wild eel back/local loach/black pig/Taihu white fish, etc., which fully reflects the pursuit of foodies for ingredients. In addition, they are hand-made and do not use chemical seasonings to maintain the authentic freshness. After a few rounds of aged Taidiao wine and homemade bayberry wine, you will forget what year it is.

If you are visiting Changxing and looking for delicious food, you must go to this restaurant hidden in the middle of the mountain. It is the restaurant of Zhenzhu Guzhu, and the owner is a real gourmet. The restaurant mainly serves authentic Huzhou cuisine, many of which are not available outside. Remember to make a reservation by phone in advance.

The boss brewed his own bayberry wine, which is both beautiful and tasty. Even a non-drinker like me couldn't help but clink three glasses! The washed sand sheep tail is super amazing! The red beans are steamed, and then the bean shells and impurities are filtered out with gauze. This process is called washing. The highly crushed bean paste is not sticky or greasy. It is paired with soybean oil, vegetable oil, pine nuts, and sugar kumquats. The taste is refreshing and dense, and the crust is made with egg whites beaten until foamy. The exquisiteness and sophistication of Jiangnan tea snacks are really witnessed.
