【Nine Bowls】 is a traditional steamed dish in Sichuan cuisine, including soft-fried steamed meat, steamed spareribs, steamed beef, steamed turtle, steamed chicken, steamed duck, steamed pork elbow, meat with sand, and salty braised pork. Especially the salty braised pork, which is a traditional Sichuan dish and one of the most distinctive dishes in Sichuan cuisine. In Liujiang Ancient Town, there are several "Nine Bowls" restaurants. I heard that Wanjia's "Nine Bowls" restaurant is quite famous locally. Unfortunately, I didn't go to taste it that day because I had something to do. I will enjoy it next time.

This is the first restaurant we've come across since arriving at Liujiang Ancient Town. Perhaps due to its location, they completely disregard quality. The jelly was bitterly salty, the grilled eggplant skin was inedible, and the three-fresh soup we hadn't ordered was simply washing water. We were served a piece of blood sausage we hadn't ordered, but they later gave us a leek and said it was our vegetarian dish. When we objected, another waiter brought us potatoes and lotus root slices. They didn't even realize their own waiter had made a few mistakes. The service was so poor that even the waiter ignored us when we asked about it.
