Whenever I go to Wuxi, I will always go to this restaurant. The restaurant is in the park. It is not a holiday peak, so parking spaces are relatively easy to find, and there are not too many people queuing. I went there recently on a rainy night when I returned to Shanghai. Four people ordered five dishes. The amount of dishes is not as much as before, and there are more or less dishes, and the dishes are not evenly presented. This is a bit bad. I always thought it was good and large. | Sweet and sour hairtail ^ Hairtail tastes very good | Water celery ^ Pure water celery is no longer available, it has become water celery tofu, probably because they think pure water celery is not cost-effective | Clear soup snails ^ Golden soup is spicy, snails are still shortlisted | Fried kidney ^ A must-order dish every time I come, the only drawback is that the quantity is much smaller | Healthy black tofu ^ Black tofu is also a must-order, I prefer this tofu
Let's go to the Nanxiatang branch of Laoniuwoli~A popular restaurant in Wuxi. You must come in advance at mealtime to see if you have to wait for a table. I arrived at 17:00 in the afternoon and didn't have to wait for a table. The dishes are large in quantity, cheap in price, and taste good. High cost performance. Fried eel paste with fried oil + pork ribs with plum juice + fried rice cake with pine nut beef + assorted gluten + water spinach, all 5 dishes are delicious, but the dishes are oily~ I like eel paste and gluten the most~

An old restaurant in Wuxi, the decoration is too old, the environment is average, the dishes are above average priced, about 120 yuan per person, and the taste is quite good. The jellyfish, river shrimp, roast duck, crab meat and tendon are all good. It is a good place to entertain guests for dinner.
When I was traveling in Wuxi, the taxi driver recommended another Wuxi restaurant. I checked online and it didn't have high reviews. I was waiting for the bus at the train station. It was early, so I checked online for Wuxi restaurants with high reviews, and found this one. I was quite satisfied with the result. Wuxi steamed buns, Wuxi spare ribs, crispy magnolia cake, West Lake whitebait soup, all tasted good. The restaurant is located on the fourth floor of the China Hotel. The service, hygiene and environment are all standard.

Zhongshan Road is an old restaurant on the second floor. The store is very grand. It is an authentic old brand. The set meal is very cost-effective and the quantity is sufficient, but the set meal does not include braised spareribs and crispy eel, so you have to order them separately. The steamed white fish is very delicious. The sweet osmanthus taro is also delicious, sweet and not greasy. The crispy eel is delicious. The taste that Shanghainese and Jiangnan people are used to 👍👍 The waiter has a good attitude. A few steps away from this restaurant is the cooked food and takeaway window of Sanfengqiao.
My friends came from other places, and I wanted to take them to try more traditional Wuxi dishes, so I chose Sanfengqiao. Actually, I haven't eaten here for a long time, and I'm not familiar with the menu. I ordered spare ribs, Liangxi crispy eel, fried eel paste, whitebait soup, four-happiness gluten, crab roe tofu, xiaolongbao, and three-white wontons. Although several dishes were ordered in small portions, the portions were quite sufficient, and four people couldn't finish these dishes. Among these dishes, I am most satisfied with spare ribs, whitebait soup and crab roe tofu. The spare ribs are soft and not mushy, and the taste is not too sweet, just right. The whitebait soup looks simple, but it is served with shredded chicken. The ingredients of crab roe tofu are clear, and the taste is just right. It is still a Wuxi restaurant worth visiting, with a traditional taste.

This is a relatively old restaurant. The Magnolia Cake is the signature dish of this restaurant. It is very crispy and sticky when it is just fried. It is very delicious. The dry pot cauliflower is large in quantity and tastes good. The slightly spicy taste is very suitable for the appetite. The Buddha Jumps Over the Wall needs to be ordered in advance, which takes a lot of time. The soup is very fresh and sweet. It is a perfect match with a bowl of rice.
Wuxi old brand, said to be one of the authentic Wuxi heritage restaurants. When you come here, you can see the old city area, the roads are very narrow, the buildings are very old, and the old brand's film economy is everywhere. The dishes are really good, and the service is quite enthusiastic!

The old-fashioned restaurant is really good. The restaurant is downstairs and the dishes are ordered upstairs. But it seems that everyone goes to the second floor to order, and the first floor is empty. The shepherd's purse and silverfish soup is very refreshing, with a light fresh taste, which is very suitable for ordering in summer. Wuxi spare ribs are very meaty, two people can share a piece, and if you eat too much, you can't eat the rest. It is sweet but not greasy, which is very good. The white rice shrimp is very fresh, fresh, and has many seeds. The old-fashioned fish pieces should be herrings. Different from the cooking method of spare ribs, it is not sweet and very tasty. The Aozao noodles here are made with special silver noodles. They are not mushy after being left for a while. They are tough and thin. It is very good. The wheat green taro rice is also special, not sweet. You can add white sugar according to your taste. After eating, you can also have a bite of the unique fermented rice and mung bean soup of this season. It is cool and delicious, and it goes well with the shortbread here. There are many flavors of shortbreads. I chose rose and pepper salt, both of which are good, but the taste of pepper salt is also a bit sweet. I feel that every dish is not bad. If you have a short visit, this restaurant is a good choice. It has all the local specialties.
In Huishan Ancient Town, this Erquanyuan old restaurant on the side of Zhi Street near Huishan Temple is both old and famous, so come and try it. The first floor of the restaurant is for eating noodles. When you walk in, there are raw noodles and drinks on the right, and the place to get toppings and pay on the left. There are two areas in the back, the patio and the indoor area. You can order dishes on the second floor. The overall style is more ancient. The toppings are more traditional, especially the crispy eel. There are really not many restaurants. I ordered eel paste noodles, which consisted of silver noodles, fried eel paste, cold cucumber and kimchi to relieve greasiness, and simple seaweed soup. The eel was made of eel segments, which looked full, but there were one or two bones left in each segment, which slightly affected the consumption. Overall, I was satisfied, and I was also puzzled why the sour plum soup I sent was the logo of Xinwanxin [囧].

Business is really hot. When I arrived at Yunfu at 4 o'clock, other stores were still preparing, but people were already queuing up to get a number at 11:00. After getting a number, you can use the public code to scan and you can intuitively look at the menu and order dishes. Here I have a suggestion. Since there is a dish introduction on the menu, it is better to have some content. We ordered coconut banana rolls, garlic shrimp, lichen eggs, tea tree mushroom squid, snowflake pork ribs, mushroom forest, and various fruit wine. The coconut banana rolls are bananas and carrots wrapped in bean skin, which is not very satisfactory, especially the carrots are still raw. As for the shrimp, the garlic paste has basically no spicy taste, and the shrimp is also quite fresh. It would be better if the black line could be removed more cleanly. The snowflake pork ribs are beautifully presented, and several stir-fried dishes are not bad. The mushroom forest is indeed image-based. Among the various fruits, I suggest that citrus can be replaced with pineapple, and the taste is more compatible with watermelon. The price-performance ratio is quite high, it is worth coming again, but it is not easy to queue.
Grilled shrimp on the iron plate, a must-order every time I come here, I really like the grilled garlic. Small yellow croaker with garlic flavor, awesome, the fish meat is super delicate, and it is very fragrant after seasoning. Signature crispy intestines, cucumber is added to the large intestines, so it doesn't taste so greasy. Minced meat and lettuce, amazing, delicious.

The autumn wind blows, and the crabs are itching. It is the season to taste crabs again. This Pinweilou is located in the middle of the Kuatang Bridge and Qingming Bridge on Nanxiatang. The space in the store is a bit cramped. The style is more traditional Jiangnan Canal style. When I came to pick up drunken crabs, the store was full of customers. I heard that most of them were tourists from other places. The dishes on the table were mostly lake seafood, and the colors were mostly white. The simple and original flavor is not easy to come by, which made me want to try it. The drunken crabs are not small in size, and the taste is tin-style and sweet. The meat is already relatively full, and it is generally good. Later, the store opened a branch for snacks, also on Nanchang Street.
Wuxi sauce spareribs, melt in your mouth, sweet gravy bursts in your mouth, very good with rice. Crab roe tofu, there is a lot of crab roe in it, the tofu is very tasty, very satisfying. Berry shortbread, sour and sweet, super love.

Gongtang is located next to Yincheng Jinglianghe Community on Jiankang Road. It is a restaurant that specializes in Yixing cuisine. Parking at the hotel entrance is not very convenient. It is recommended to park on the roadside. The restaurant is on the second floor. The private rooms and scattered tables are open and semi-open. The environment in the store is clean, but the air freshener is a bit pungent. The group-purchased dishes are quite rich and sufficient. The small melon shreds are crisp, and it feels like chayote. The cherry shrimps are quite large. The chicken feet are slightly spicy and firm. The lichen local eggs, the yellow local eggs are soft and fragrant. The three-cup chicken tastes more sweet and elegant. The chestnuts are the kind produced in Yixing. Although they are not fried, the cooking is just right and the chicken is tender. The beef looks full of bright red peppers, but in fact the spiciness is very light. The beef is a little cold, so it tastes a bit old. The black rice is available in two combinations: white sugar and meat floss. The grains are distinct and fragrant. The corn juice is very pure, light, healthy and refreshing, and it is very good value overall.
The decoration is very modern and exquisite, the tableware is also ingenious, and each dish has a very high standard. The bacon is obviously evenly fat and lean, and the pieces are consistent. The shredded zucchini is exquisitely plated, and the jellyfish skin is very good. The overall taste is very good, and the restaurant is very high-end.

Xixin Hotel, the number one in the Chong'an Temple Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisine praise list, the per capita cost performance is really high, and the dishes are also sufficient. The white water fish is very good, and there are fresh white rice shrimps, which are delicious The restaurant closes at 20:30 for ordering, and the restaurant is closed at 21:00, so the nightlife starts a little early [covering face]
Coffee, I love osmanthus, I ordered osmanthus latte when I saw it, the faint osmanthus fragrance mixed with coffee, it goes well with the atmosphere of the garden tavern. Bread basket, the woven basket is full of French style, the bread is freshly baked and must be eaten while it is hot, there are also dried fruits in it.
