The lamb shank pilaf is a true delicacy! The lamb shank is braised until tender and boneless, and the meat separates with a gentle tug. The meat is tender, juicy, and fragrant, and even the cracks between the bones are soaked with the essence of the spices. Served atop a bed of distinct long-grain rice, the golden, glossy rice is coated with the sweetness of carrots and onions, blending with the unique aroma of the lamb. Every bite is incredibly flavorful!

Who gets it?! Nantong's slow pace cured my mental fatigue. ✨ This 3-day, 2-night food and drink guide is straight from my homework! 📍A hidden gem you won't want to leave! ✅ Don't just hike up Langshan! The real highlight is taking a cable car to see the Yangtze River. The North Gate wooden plank road is the perfect place for backlit silhouettes! 📸 (Secretly: Wishing at Zhiyun Pagoda is super effective!) ✅ You must take photos of the "Nantong" wall in the Dasheng Innovation District. The Cultural and Creative Park, renovated from an old factory, now houses a dancing robot dog! 🐶 ✅ A night cruise on the Haohe River is a must! Enjoy a pleasure boat accompanied by Pingtan (Chinese pingtan) and the beautiful lights on both sides, like floating in an ink painting! 🚢 😋A local's hidden gem list ▪️Pilaf meets naan pit meat: Limited daily quantity! The lamb chops are fatty but not greasy, and the rice is free with refills! 🍚 ▪️Zhangjia Stinky Tofu on Temple Street: Even if you have to queue, you'll want to try it! Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, not at all smelly, and perfect with chili sauce. ▪️Siyi Cake Shop: Glutinous rice cake lovers will be delighted! The red bean cakes and tiaotou cakes are sweet but not greasy 😋 💣Key points to avoid: ❌ Don't believe "low-cost boat tours" in scenic areas; they'll take detours and miss panoramic views. ❌ Choose a reputable electric scooter rental shop; the 80 yuan/day battery lasts, so don't be tempted by the price and push the scooter halfway. ❌ Be wary of the internet-famous restaurants on South Street; the real food is in the small, run-down shops tucked away in old alleys. Living in the Zhongnan CBD is incredibly convenient and close to everything. Nantong is free of crowds, perfect for a leisurely city walk 🌿 So grab a ride and go! #NantongTravel #NantongFood
