包福记(钟楼店)

Came on January 11, 2025.

Dad likes to eat cake dumplings. When I learned that there is also a time-honored store in Nantong that is famous for cake dumplings, I naturally made a special trip to buy some cakes to take back as souvenirs.

This store is located on South Street outside the Jiangshan Gate site of the old Tongzhou City. The antique gatehouse is very recognizable. The store is not big. The cake counter is facing the door and there are many varieties. I bought some sweet-scented osmanthus cakes and other varieties to take home. I heard they are quite delicious, similar to the ones we have at Shen Dacheng in Shanghai.

In addition to cake dumplings, this store actually also sells Chinese snacks such as noodles, fried rice, and wontons. The business is even better than cake dumplings, which is quite surprising.

I like rich flavors, so for puffs, there is a lot of cream in their puffs. It is a very happy feeling to eat them slowly. I like other breads as well.

[Taste] I have always liked 85 degrees c English milk tea, three parts of sugar is just right, must drink hot in winter, warm, very delicious
[Service] Good attitude
[Environment] Clean and tidy

I didn&#39;t expect to be able to eat at a very authentic Cantonese tea restaurant in Nantong. The whole environment and the music played seemed to have traveled back to Hong Kong&#39;s heyday decades ago. The four of us ordered 8 dishes, a full table. After feasting on them, I was not disappointed at all.
Roasted meat combination: I ordered roast duck and oil chicken. Both roast duck and oil chicken only had a skin and firm meat. The quality was very good, the meat was not dry, and it was very tasty;
Young crispy pigeon: The pigeon is as its name suggests, a small one, and the chef fried it at a temperature as pure as fire, just right, the skin is crispy and the meat is not old, it is very delicious;
Boiled Guangdong choy sum: moderate saltiness, although the dish is a little old, but acceptable;
Abalone sauce crab roe shrimp tofu: When it was first served, I felt that the color was a bit lacking, and I felt that it was too thick. I felt confused by the pile of stuff until I put a spoonful in my mouth. Hmm, this is delicious and deserves a thumbs up. The tofu is tender and the soup is delicious. It is even better when used with rice.
Thai appetizer stuffed tomatoes: a bright red plate is served on the table, which immediately attracts the eye. It is sour and sweet, soft and glutinous, and has a rich taste.
XO sauce seafood dry vermicelli pot: Ma Xiangfa Ling, Mi Dao Man Hao (Shanghainese);
Stir-fried beef with asparagus and white jade mushroom: the beef is tender, the asparagus and white jade mushroom are smooth and smooth, and they complement each other;
Handmade steamed water chestnut meat patties: thin meat patties, tender taste, crispy water chestnuts, delicious taste, and retained memories;
Nostalgic restaurant, delicious dishes, indelible memories, give a big thumbs up. Give the store a suggestion, come to Shanghai to open a store, I will continue to support it, hahahaha!

Grandma&#39;s House, a famous Hangzhou cuisine, is not as sweet as Suzhou cuisine, nor as strong as Shanghai cuisine, which is more suitable for our taste. Grandma&#39;s House on the 8th floor of Nantong Yaohan is quite popular, and you often have to queue up. It was okay at noon today, and I got a seat directly. It felt dark when I walked in. The menu variety is less than that of Hangzhou Grandma&#39;s House. Unfortunately, the first dish &quot;West Lake Vinegar Fish&quot; was not available. I ordered &quot;Steamed Snow Vegetable Small Yellow Croaker&quot; according to the recommendation. It was farmed when it was served, and it was pickled and then steamed. It was only salty but not fresh. &quot;Sister Song Fish Soup&quot; and &quot;Yam Lettuce&quot; are quite sufficient and taste good. &quot;Grandma&#39;s Pickled Radish&quot; is 8 yuan/plate, recommended, sweet and sour and very tasty, especially for people with poor appetite, it can help you eat! 2 people and 4 dishes cost 90 yuan, which is not bad.
