A newly opened store in Impression City, from the same company as Liu Qiaoer. The name of the store is a homonym of Nantong dialect. I ordered Zhuangyuan Chicken and the fried dough sticks were eaten with ice cream and soy milk. All the dishes were quite delicious. There was free watermelon, which was great. The meal for four people cost less than 400 yuan, which is not too cheap.
Nantong's fireworks are hidden in this small restaurant with a strong oil red sauce fragrance. The wooden signboard is hung on the blue brick wall. The glass cabinet is filled with freshly braised chicken and freshly steamed cage cake. People passing by will always be caught by the sound of "zila" fried. The locals said, Here is the treasure place of "can eat the old taste of Nantong" ~ 🍲 "Fresh to drop eyebrows" must order list 👇✅ Nantong Zhuangyuan Chicken 🍗✨ Town Store "strong oil red sauce bear"! The chicken is rotten and deboned, wrapped in red sauce, and even the chicken skin is tender with gelatinous bullets. The focus is on the pork blocks hidden underneath! Simmer to the entrance, suck the fresh chicken soup and the soy sauce, mixed a spoonful of soup into rice, can dazzle two bowls of lentils, Ding rice 🍚💥 Nantong people on the tip of the tongue "nostalgia"! Fresh and tender lentils are cut into dicing, fried with pork dicing to the sauce, poured on the grained rice ~🥰 Each rice is wrapped in oily sauce, the lentils are sweet and mixed with meat, and one mouth is full of home-cooked flavor. Even people who don’t like staple foods can’t help but eat two more ~✅ Butter fried cage cakes and hemp Sauce shrimp 🦐😜 Creative and traditional collision! The tender open back shrimp in the outer and inner is wrapped in a dense hemp sauce, and the bottom is fried to golden Nantong cage cake. The cage cake sucks the fresh and buttery fragrance of the shrimp, and bites a "sweet and salty interweaving". The shrimp's bullet teeth are accompanied by the soft oyster of the cage cake. The taste level is directly full! ✅ Xishi Tongyu Seafood Soup 🐚🌊 Fresh to lame "Jianghai flavor"! Xishi Tongue, Wenxuan, and shrimps cook a clear soup head, sprinkle a handful of fennel leaves and Tixiang ~😚 Shell meat is full of sand, suck a mouthful of sweetness with sea water, the soup is refreshing and not greasy, come to a bowl in summer to appetize the stomach instantly ~ 📍 Nantong Double Store Coordinates & Check-in Guide 🏠 Panliyan Nantong Cai (Impression City Store) 📍 4th floor, Nantong Impression City, Qiyin Road, Chongchuan District (directly to the top floor of the mall, see the Zhuangyuan chicken braised pot at the door, and the soy sauce is ~😝) ⏰ 11:00-14:00 / 17:00-21:30 (the noon market is 12 o'clock, the evening market is 6 o'clock! It is recommended to make an appointment in advance, sit by the window to see the street view and eat old Nantong cuisine ~) 🏠 Yan Nantong cuisine in the pot (Dayoujing Store) 📍 4th floor of Chongchuan Dayoujing, Qingnian Middle Road, Chongchuan District (the corner of the shopping mall dining area, the master in the glass Ming stall is fried lentil meat Ding rice, you can smell the fragrance from a distance ~😜) ⏰ 10:30-21:30 (Bring your family to eat on weekends, order a Zhuangyuan chicken + lentil rice, The elders directly praised "the taste of the past" ~) 💬 Broken thoughts: Nantong cuisine's "strong and fresh" store decoration with the old Nantong market sense, the wall is painted with the hand-painted Luohe and Langshan, the aunt will remind "Zhuangyuan chicken is enough, two people order a small portion is enough" ~👵 The most healing thing is to see the master's pot sauce pouring in the pot, the meat fragrance mixed with rice fragrance, and instantly understand Nantong people's obsession with "the taste of home" ~ #Nantong Travel #Food Xunweihui #Local food that can be eaten #Listen to the advice of locals #Food (call friends to punch in! ✅ Zhuangyuan chicken with ✅ lentil rice is locked, remember to drink Xishi tongue soup after eating, fresh to my heart ~😎🥢)

The fish is super delicious, the environment is nice, and the service is good. Two people ordered a portion of mixed fish and couldn't finish it, so a small portion would be nice. The stir-fried vegetables with oil residue are also superb. I also ordered a pitcher of watermelon juice, which was perfect after removing the foam on top. I love the atmosphere there and will patronize it again.
River seafood is the main dish, shrimp, fish can do.

Came on January 11, 2025. This store is a local home-cooked restaurant on the Nantong must-eat list, and it is also on the way back to Shanghai, so naturally it is worth pulling grass. As soon as you arrive at the store, the Nantong "old foundation" style decoration outside the store will let people enter the play in a second, and the whole store will restore the neighborhood scene of Nantong in the 1980s, which is very old. The menu is mostly based on the traditional classic home-cooked dishes in Nantong. Of course, there are many new cooking methods, and the taste is very delicious. The deep impression is that 99 seconds of yellow croaker and mountain spring water are original Wenxuan, which is just the same as the sentence "good ingredients often only need simple cooking". Some other dishes are also very good. Nantong's dishes are similar to Shanghai, but they can eat Nantong's characteristics here. The service of this store is also very good. Although the store is busy, the waiter can still respond to the needs of customers in the first time. Don't worry about parking in this store. There are many parking spaces in the place where the store is located, and you can enjoy 3 hours of free parking for in-store dining. You can deal with it at the cashier before you leave.
The decoration of the environment is very good, Nantong specialties are worth a try, and there will be a chance~

Friends in Nantong are full of praise for this store. After the renovation, the environment has been greatly improved, at least it looks much cleaner and brighter. The seafood is very fresh and there are many varieties, including fish, shrimp, crab, snail, and mainly small seafood. The taste is also very good, different seafood is cooked in different ways, the price is not cheap, but the seafood is fresh and of good quality.
"Nantong" package area hides seafood resort Jiangsu Province the most inconspicuous tourist city, "education town" is also "museum city" (21 museums). Although there are not many attractions of mountains and rivers, it is approachable and eats very rich. ▶ Shunhualou Buns Shop ⭐⭐⭐🦀 Crab Yellow Meat Bag, the fire oysters that have just been baked, are delicious. ▶ Small seafood family restaurant ⭐⭐⭐⭐ braised scallop fish, snow-cai steamed plum fish, white burning ink fish, super absolute ~▶ Lu Tingting opened a new Chinese tea shop with the concept of medicine and food homologation. The glutinous rice pop beads are very good ~▶ Siyi cake group shop ⭐ Compared with the cake group in Shanghai, it is not particularly brilliant. ▶ Wang's biscuits ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sweet and salty tastes are recommended! Be sure to try. The salty mouth of mustard and radish silk is a bit salty. ▶ Small farming garden ⭐⭐ may also be that the biscuits are too full, and the iron plate Wenxuan and bamboo shoot dry soup that I am looking forward to for dinner is not particularly amazing.

A very nice farmhouse restaurant, on Shanshui Road, more than 1 km away from the south gate of Langshan Mountain. It seems a bit lonely, but the courtyard is neat. In addition to the two buildings used as restaurants, there are also some pavilions, terraces, bonsai gardens, etc. There are many local cars parked in front of the small building, and it is quite popular. The dishes are based on river and seafood, and it is a farmhouse style where you order dishes in the kitchen.
