When talking about Ciqikou, don't think it's just a commercial ancient town, don't think it's just a place for food and toys. This is a famous historical and cultural street, and one of Chongqing's "New Bayu Twelve Scenic Spots" is Baolun Temple, Zhongjiayuan, Hanlin Academy, Museum, Ancient Wharf, Wenchang Palace, Water Guanyin, etc. The fried dough twist in Ciqikou Ancient Town is delicious. Chen Jianping's fried dough twist is always in line. The one with rock sugar is delicious, and the one with honey is even more delicious.

Ciqikou has many signature delicacies, and Chen Mahua is one of the specialties of Ciqikou. This Chen Jianping Mahua is the main store, located in the middle street of Ciqikou. There is a long queue at the door, which is almost the longest queue in Ciqikou. In fact, I didn’t find anything special in the taste, but the Mahua itself is quite delicious.
The environment is beautiful, and the facade is very distinctive, mainly in red. Customers can see this restaurant from a distance. The interior decoration is simple and bright, and the tables and chairs are neatly arranged. The dining seats are sofa-style tables and chairs, which are very comfortable to sit on for a meal. The walls are covered with potted plants, which adds a bit of greenery to the restaurant. The floor is clean and tidy, without any garbage. Diners sit in the window seats to dine and enjoy the beautiful scenery outside. It feels so comfortable. There are really "too many" Chen Mahua in Ciqikou. If you "can't figure it out", just find out which one has the "longest" line. There are "huge crowds" at the door of this restaurant every day, and the "line is sad." The Mahua is "small" and "crispy", "not greasy", and has flavors such as original, pepper salt, spicy pepper salt, coconut milk, mung bean paste, etc., "delicious and not expensive." After eating it myself, I brought some back for my family, "It's pretty good
If you go to Ciqikou, you must go to their Mahua. Go in through the main gate of Ciqikou, walk to the main street, and on the left side towards the river, you will see shops selling Mahua. This is the first shop on the left, and the one that has the longest queue is also this one. In fact, they have two branches, both not far away from each other. But the one that has the longest queue is this one, and I guess everyone has chosen this one. I went there during the Spring Festival, and I won’t mention that person. I like their salt and pepper flavor, and now it’s 15 yuan a pack. Fortunately, it still tastes good. There is a shop at the door, and the people inside the shop hold the Mahua for customers to taste, and you can choose according to your taste. There are many flavors, original, chocolate, salt and pepper... I personally like the salt and pepper flavor. Of course, everyone’s taste is different.
If you go to Chongqing, you must go to Ciqikou to buy local fried dough twists. There are two fried dough twists in the local area, and this one seems to be more famous. What is called "hot" is that there is a branch store just a few steps away from Ciqikou, which is crowded with people and the queue is so long. Environment: The local Ciqikou ancient square buildings are full of fried dough twists. There are aunts and waiters at the door of each store holding fried dough twists and inviting passers-by to try them. It is really free to eat. The fried dough twists for tasting are also very large, and you can eat them repeatedly, and you can also try different flavors. You can also try them in the store. You can still eat them at the counter after buying them. It is no problem to eat two kilograms of fried dough twists. Spicy fried dough twists: 18 yuan/jin Local characteristics, fried dough twists have a spicy taste, and your mouth will feel numb. It is quite special. Generally, people who are used to eating sweet food will not be used to it. I brought it back for my colleagues to eat. At first, I couldn't get used to it. After eating two, I felt very delicious. For people like me who love spicy food, it suits my taste. Honey Mahua: 18 yuan/catties It has a sweet taste. After eating too much spicy food, this is quite refreshing. The key is that it is not as sweet as sugar, so it is not greasy. If you like sweet food, you will definitely love it. People who come to travel buy more than ten kilograms of it. There are bags of it everywhere on the road, and there are also tastings. It is worth buying haha
Long queues, the famous Ciqikou Chen Mahua, this shop has the longest queues, and is the most authentic shop. There are many varieties, 15 yuan a bag, a big bag. There are glutinous rice rock sugar, pepper salt spicy, coconut milk, mung bean and other flavors. Rock sugar and spicy flavors are recommended. It tastes best when hot, and the spicy flavor has a numbing aftertaste.
Warm tips: You must come here in the morning. There are many people coming in the afternoon. Come early and leave early. Don't wait until 16-19 pm to leave. There will be a lot of people leaving at that time, and there will be traffic jams! And try to avoid weekends and holidays. Come on weekdays. Don't drive here. The parking lot is very small and it's hard to park!
