What restaurants in Hangzhou represent local tastes? What are their characteristics?
Although "hangzhou dishes" is not one of the four major cuisines in China, famous dishes such as West Lake vinegar fish, Longjing shrimp and Pipachuan have also emerged, which is an unforgettable food experience in Hangzhou. In Hangzhou, restaurants that can represent the local flavor of hangzhou dishes in different periods can be mainly divided into three categories. One is the classic traditional hangzhou dishes Pavilion represented by Louwailou, Shanwaishan and hangzhou dishes, with traditional West Lake vinegar fish, Longjing shrimp and fried bell. The second category is the innovative hangzhou dishes represented by Grandma's family, which is characterized by the fusion of innovative dishes such as braised pork and sweet and sour mandarin fish. The third category is represented by newly-built online celebrity restaurants such as Lane Lane, featuring low-cost Lane, kitchen dishes and home-cooked dishes.

The classic traditional hangzhou dishes Pavilion, represented by Louwailou, is the so-called classic traditional hangzhou dishes Pavilion, which completely inherits the practice of classic hangzhou dishes, does not make a big breakthrough in dishes, strictly follows the traditional cooking methods and standards, and truly restores the taste of hangzhou dishes in history. Representatives of this kind of restaurant include Louwailou located in Gushan of West Lake, Hangzhou Restaurant on Hubin Road, Shanwai Mountain on Yuquan Road, etc.

These classic hangzhou dishes pavilions have the same long history and different signature dishes, but they have one thing in common, that is, they perfectly inherit the traditional practices of hangzhou dishes, and the dishes and tastes you taste here are not much different from those of Su Dongpo's time. The reason for saying this is that classic dishes such as Dongpo pork were handed down from that time.

The classic dishes of traditional hangzhou dishes mainly include: West Lake vinegar fish, Longjing shrimp, Song Saoyu soup, Dongpo meat and so on. Of course, it also includes traditional snacks in Hangzhou, such as steamed stuffed bun with onion, sliced Sichuan and fried bells. Of course, the price of the traditional classic hangzhou dishes Pavilion is the highest among the three types of restaurants, with per capita above 150.

Innovation and Integration Represented by Grandma's hangzhou dishes I want to ask which store has been overcrowded for ten years, and Grandma's must be one of them. Grandma's house is in Hangzhou, and there are about ten stores. In Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, there are many stores. Grandma's house is so popular because its main course is constantly introducing cooking methods from Shanghai, Suzhou and Huaiyang. For example, the braised pork cooked by grandma is very different from Dongpo pork. This is braised pork with salted fish. People in Ningbo can have a taste of their hometown in this dish, which is why grandma's family is listed as a fusion dish of Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

Grandma's main course is an upgraded version of traditional hangzhou dishes. In addition to the traditional West Lake vinegar fish and Longjing shrimp unique to Hangzhou cuisine, there are also fusion dishes that traditional Hangzhou cuisine does not have, but they taste the same. The most popular dishes are beggar chicken, sweet and sour mandarin fish, grandma's braised pork, Jinhua double-headed black sausage and Hangzhou steamed buns. And the taste is very adaptable. Most tourists from Jiangsu and Zhejiang can enjoy the local specialties.

The overall price of the restaurant where these dishes are mixed and mixed, represented by Grandma's house, will be slightly lower than that of the traditional hangzhou dishes Pavilion, with per capita 100- 120 yuan.

Online celebrity restaurant, a new online celebrity restaurant represented by Xiang Xiang, takes the local food route and is a successful route for restaurants and online celebrities in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. However, the origin and birth of online celebrity restaurants are different, and it has two paths to overall success. One of the paths is particularly meaningful in site selection. In terms of uniqueness, for example, the "Lu Nan" in Maojiabu monopolizes the most quiet place on Shangxiang Ancient Road, surrounded by water on three sides, and caters for the wetland landscape in Maojiabu. The second way is to take the cheap route. On the basis of choosing local home-cooked dishes and big-stove dishes in Hangzhou to reduce the cost of ingredients, the per capita price is basically around 70-80 yuan, not exceeding 100 yuan, which is an affordable route.

The online celebrity restaurant in the alley also has a unique geographical advantage. It is the starting point to Maojiabu and the only way to Lingyin Temple, so it has become a guarantee for tourists. On the basis of Hangzhou home-cooked dishes and hutong dishes, some innovative improvements have been made, such as braised chicken feet in hutong, pickled fish better than fish, wonderful fried shrimp and so on, and the style of dishes and shops.

The above three types of restaurants can generally cover the taste characteristics of hangzhou dishes when traveling to Hangzhou. Of course, in addition to these three categories, there is also a large category, namely, farmhouse music in meijiawu and Longjing. The dishes here are closer to the local home cooking practices of Hangzhou people, with fish head soup, local chicken pot and other home cooking as the main features, which is also worth feeling.
