Let’s talk about Jinzhou’s food.

I studied in Jinzhou 20 years ago and left home for college entrance exams. This was the first time I left home and became a serf. From now on, I have the final say on what I eat and wear. That mood is beautiful. At that time, my family had plenty of money, and all the living expenses were spent on food. Of course, I can’t afford anything too expensive. I remember there was a very small noodle shop downstairs from the dormitory. A bowl of hand-made noodles cost 2 yuan. There were 8 people in the dormitory, and we often went there to buy them together. We bought 8 large bowls of noodles, and no one had anything left to eat. I really miss that taste. I put a little shredded pork in it. I don’t know what the charm is. Anyway, everyone who has eaten it knows that no one can say anything bad about it. When summer comes at night, my favorite place to visit is the Guta Night Market. There are several old shops in it. The fried snails in Jinjiao are really delicious at that time, and the spicy hotpot is 100 times more delicious than those in school. What’s more, Jinzhou’s way of eating seafood is extremely unique. At that time, there was a classmate who was a native of Jinzhou. He often brought us egg sauce, which was similar to the fried sauce in Beijing fried noodles. What was unique was that there was a lot of shrimp and crawler meat in the egg sauce. Hey me, it was so delicious. Unforgettable.

Twenty years have passed in a flash, and I have traveled to many places. Some of them are unforgettable, and I often mention local food, such as milk tea and sand tea noodles in Xiamen, Bangbang chicken in Sichuan, Xinjiang If you want to eat large plate chicken, you have to find a local restaurant to eat it. Once the assembly line is industrialized, the authentic energy will be gone.

I recently went to Jinzhou again. I tasted all the best things in the world such as shrimp pie, fried crab with onion and ginger, green bean cake, fried snail and so on that I loved in the past. I have to admit that it doesn’t matter whether I have money or not, my taste buds have almost deteriorated, but the best products in the small alley shops in Jinzhou are still addictive. I won’t go into details about the famous “list products” such as Goubangzi Smoked Chicken and Jinzhou BBQ, they are always good. What are not known to outsiders are Jinhua No. 1 intestines, Jinhua big meat dates, shrimp oil cucumbers, handmade dried tofu, etc. The taste is simply amazing!

Mianzhou is located in the southwest of Liaoning Province and the eastern part of the "Western Liaoning Corridor". It is a transportation hub city connecting the two major regions of North China and Northeast China. Jinzhou is an ancient city with a long history of more than 2,000 years. The story of "an old horse knows the way" and the famous "Battle of Liaoshen" all happened here. The ancient city of Jinzhou has come a long way from history. The changes over the years have accumulated a rich and elegant core, exuding a charming brilliance. If you read through Jinzhou slowly, you will slowly get surprises one by one.

Jinzhou’s famous delicacies include: Jinzhou barbecue, Jinhua roasted chicken, Goubangzi smoked chicken, Goubangzi steamed stuffed buns, Jinzhou assorted vegetables, Baijia pot roast, Beizhen pig’s trotters, shrimp oil side dishes wait.

You asked if there is a romantic place in Jinzhou? I think there are a few places that can be considered good places for romance alone.

1: Juhua Island (located in Juhua Island Township, Xingcheng City)

It was called Juehua Island in ancient times. It was renamed Juhua Island in 1922 because of the abundance of chrysanthemums on the island. It is said that more than a thousand years ago, the monk Juehua wandered here with his two apprentices. Seeing that the island was like a fairyland, they settled down and funded the construction of a magnificent Xieshan temple with nine ridges and double eaves: Dalonggong Temple, which specialized in Buddhist matters. The island has beautiful rocks and towering ancient trees. There are Qianshan Island and Yanshan Island in the south, and Mopan Mountain in the north. There are many places of interest here, including Dalonggong Temple in the Liao Dynasty, Dabei Pavilion in the Ming Dynasty, Haiyun Temple, Shifo Temple, Tangwang Cave, Holy Water Basin, Liangcheng City, Dianjiang Terrace, etc. There are also natural landscapes such as nine capstones and stone forests.

2: Xingcheng Ancient City, also known as Ningyuan Acropolis, is the most complete ancient Ming Dynasty city in my country. The layout of the city wall is square, with gates in the middle of all four sides of the city, and a semicircular urn outside the gate. There are corner platforms at the four corners of the city, and Kuixing Tower is built on the southeast corner platform. The east, west, south, and north crosses intersect in the city, and the bell and drum towers are in the upright position. Xingcheng Confucian Temple is located in the southeast corner of the ancient city. It is the same age as the ancient city and is divided into three courtyards.

3: Shoushan Scenic Area is named after the three peaks standing tall and looking like bitter heads. The "Crown of Three Peaks" is one of the eight scenic spots in the ancient city of Xingcheng. It also has the ruins of military facilities and the Chaoyang Palace ( It includes Wuliang Hall), Zha'an, Stone Forest Animal Area, Sunrise Cylinder and other attractions.

4: Xingcheng Beach, the bathing beach stretches for 14 kilometers and consists of four bathing beaches: Xinghai Bay, Gangguang Bay, Bingjia Bay and Laolong Bay. It is the largest natural bathing beach in northern my country. There are no clear rocks and hidden reefs in the bathing beach. The water is clean and quiet, the slope is gentle, the sand is fine, and the scenery is very beautiful.

Among the above places, at least one of them is suitable for you to be alone and romantic! Haha

Jinzhou barbecue is now famous all over the world, Goubangzi smoked chicken, Beizhen’s pig trotters have been eaten for four generations, Rongpengxang cake has been popular for twenty years, Jinzhou’s dry tofu was given as a gift to the head of Beijing... ...Grapes from Heishan, running water mats from Yixian County, river crabs from Linghai, shrimp oil and shrimp paste from Bijiashan brand, sea duck eggs, and one-meter-long Luzi fish from Bohai Bay...

First time for Yizhou Jun I heard that Jinzhou is a city that was inspired by Mao Zedong’s famous saying, "Jinzhou is where apples grow." Later, I discovered that Jinzhou is actually a famous cultural city with a long history and beautiful scenery. Later, I went to Jinzhou and ate dried sauce pork, Bean pancakes, Goubangzi smoked chicken, steamed stuffed buns and other local delicacies made me realize that Jinzhou is a veritable "city of foodies"!

Of course, there is one more thing that must be mentioned - Jinzhou BBQ!

Only Jinzhou can make a city famous for its barbecue. The local barbecue association has even been established. But if you ask what is different about Jinzhou Barbecue, Yizhou Jun can’t tell you why. I only know that there are small shops with the "Jinzhou BBQ" brand all over the country.

When you get to the local area, there is basically a barbecue restaurant just 100 meters away, and the ingredients in the store are "only imaginable, and everything can't be grilled." However, after eating it for a while, Yi Zhoujun still felt that the Jin mutton skewers were the best, tender and juicy, with authentic mutton flavor!

The other is the famous Jinzhou assorted side dishes. In fact, it was originally called "shrimp oil side dishes". The inventor used shrimp oil in shrimp paste, soaked in cucumbers, celery and other pickled vegetables. It is crispy and tender in the mouth. , everyone was full of praise.

After hundreds of years of evolution, assorted side dishes now include more than a dozen varieties such as cucumbers, Jiang beans, celery, oil peppers, and eggplants, and have become a well-known rice dish throughout China.

Jinzhou also has another specialty - bean cakes. To put it simply, make a pancake with noodles, cover it with beans and stew them together in a pot. The beans can also be served with potatoes, ribs, etc. Because the pancake absorbs the smell of the stew, it becomes rich and delicious.

When eating, have the beans and pancakes together, then dip some soup into your mouth, it’s super satisfying!

As an important town in western Liaoning, Jinzhou had its glory days after the founding of New China. Jinzhou has a long history and has had many delicious food, which left a deep impression on people. The first is Jinzhou side dishes. In the past, anyone who came to Jinzhou would bring back a few baskets of Jinzhou side dishes. Next is Lingchuan Baijiu. At that time, people in Jinzhou called Lingchuan Baijiu "Da Lingchuan". This is a Maotai-flavor liquor that can be compared with Moutai. It has a long history, is slightly yellow in color, and has a compelling aroma. It enjoys a high reputation in the Northeast and the country. Before the 10s, it was not easy to buy a bottle of "Da Lingchuan". Next is Goubangzi smoked chicken. Goubangzi smoked chicken was as famous as Daokou roast chicken in Henan, Fuliji roast chicken in Anhui, and Dezhou braised chicken in Shandong. Today, except for Goubangzi smoked chicken, which is still struggling, the other two items have changed beyond recognition. After the Lingchuan winery was relocated, the wine was renamed Daoguang 25, and the style of the wine completely changed. Even ordinary people couldn’t figure out whether it was distilled wine. In the past few years, although the unearthed old wine was used to promote it for a while, But it is still not as loud as "Da Lingchuan" in the past, not as recognized as "Da Lingchuan", and not as delicious as Lingchuan wine. Due to changes in style and packaging, Jinzhou side dishes have lost their original charm and faded out of people's sight. Nowadays, people in Jinzhou are obsessed with barbecue and use it as a business card and a characteristic to promote Jinzhou. They have also established a "BBQ Association" in a pretentious manner, which makes the industry laugh out loud. As a Jinzhou person, I feel ashamed. Barbecue is a snack, regardless of whether it originated in Jinzhou (it was not at all). Just because of the hygienic conditions of its grilling and the harm that grilled food brings to people, it should not be praised. Some people may like to eat it, but it should not be compared with Jinzhou’s traditional products.

Jinzhou Food Street is undoubtedly Renmin Street in Guta District, which is located in the center of Jinzhou City. Adjacent to Xiaoling River. At the foot of the Yiwulu Mountains. Renmin Street is home to a variety of restaurants, restaurants, and snack bars, ranging from roadside food stalls to high-end star hotels, from the world-famous Jinzhou Barbecue to common home-cooked side dishes across the country, with unique flavors, colors, and aromas. This is a must-go food street in Jinzhou.

Of course, every city has many special delicacies hidden in the streets and alleys, which are worth looking for and savoring, and Jinzhou is no exception.

There is also our authentic Jinzhou Rongpengyang cake, which is under the famous Jinzhou ancient pagoda (Jinzhou Guangji Temple Pagoda). It has appeared on the big screen of CCTV twice as a representative of Jinzhou’s special food. With a history of more than 300 years, Jinzhou Xiangbing has become a home-cooked dish and has been on the menus of various restaurants.

There is also the night market on Jinzhou Central Street!

Jinsan BBQ

Jinzhou barbecue also makes people eat without getting tired of it.

Goubangzi Roast Chicken

Goubangzi Smoked Chicken was founded in the 15th year of Guangxu’s reign in the Qing Dynasty. The founder, Yin Yucheng, met the Emperor Guangxu’s chef by chance while doing charity, and got the secret recipe of the royal palace’s smoked chicken. The smoked chicken shop, named "Goubangzi Smoked Chicken", relies on sixteen fine processes, thirty kinds of selected ingredients, four generations of old soup, and fire inheritance to create a century-old name of "Goubangzi Smoked Chicken", which is deeply loved by local people and past generations. Favored by merchants, it is known as the first of China's "Four Famous Chickens" and is famous all over the world.

Bean Cake

The main dish of Bean Cake is beans, ribs and potatoes, stewed in an iron pot to a certain heat, the ribs are separated from the meat, and the flavor of the seasoning is completely immersed It’s time for the dish. The pancakes are commonly referred to as spring pancakes. They are very thin and are usually placed on top of the dishes. Some restaurants serve them separately, with the pancakes placed on a plate, such as Rong Pengxang pancakes!

Beizhen Pig Trotters

Early Daoguang Year of the Qing Dynasty. In Beizhen City, there was an old man Yang and his two sons who were engaged in the business of processed meat products. At the beginning, they had very little experience, and the production of pig's trotters was limited to using peppercorns as seasonings. It was made in a general way, and the sales were not good. Later, old soup, sesame oil, soy sauce, salt, star anise, Sichuan peppercorns, and ginger were used as seasonings, and then smoked with white sugar. The pig's trotters processed in this way not only had a good color, but also had a delicious taste. Yang's smoked pig's trotters soon became popular. It became famous throughout the city. Later, new technologies such as rosin plucking and blowtorch singeing were used. On the basis of the original seasonings, cinnamon, tangerine peel, cloves, fennel and other traditional Chinese medicines were added as seasonings. The pig's trotters have the characteristics of rich aroma, making Beizhen's cooked pig's trotters even better.

Baijia Guolao

Guolao is a local flavor in Jinzhou. It was founded in 1945. It was named Baijia Guolao because it was based on Bai Rongshu's operating techniques. The characteristics of Baijia Guolao are golden background, shape like tiger hooves, fresh and mellow taste, crispy chewing, fresh and fragrant, fragrant but not greasy.

Jinzhou side dishes

In the early years of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, there was a village called Nitrate Guo near the Bohai Bay in the south of Jinzhou City. There lived a family named Li who relied on fishing and shrimping. To make a living, he has been fishing for fish and shrimp near Erjie Valley before and after "Xiaoman" for many years. Because this area is a floodplain, the confluence of sea water and river water, the black shrimps produced here (commonly known as hemp thread) have thin skin and thick flesh, are plump and fresh, have a strong flavor and have no fishy smell. The fish and shrimps he brought back were brought to Jinzhou to sell. Sometimes the remaining shrimps are poured into the tank, and some salt is added to prevent them from spoiling. Over time, more and more shrimps accumulate in the tank, and after natural fermentation in the sun, they turn into a sticky shrimp paste. Every time it is time to eat, he scoops out some of the rice and gives it to his neighbors to taste. Everyone who eats it praises the delicious taste. Later, with his careful management, more sunshine and stirring, the taste became more delicious, so he named it braised shrimp paste. Later he discovered that there was a layer of oil floating on top, which tasted more delicious than shrimp paste. In order to get more shrimp oil, he switched to using a spoon to take out the oil on top, and inserted the cage with chopsticks into the shrimp paste. After a while, the cage was filled with fresh shrimp oil. If there is too much oil, use oil to pickle vegetables. At first pickle some cucumber strips and celery, and then use whole cucumbers. After pickling, the flowers will not fall off, the thorns will not fall off, and they will taste crisper and more tender.

Gradually, more tender cowpeas and chili peppers were soaked in the oil. After a few days, they tasted the same as shrimp oil and their color remained unchanged, so the "shrimp oil side dish" was born. Later, they began to eat it at home and sell it in the market. It became very popular and the sales increased day by day. When the cucumbers produced at home were not enough, he went to nearby villages to buy them, and his business grew. Li's "shrimp oil side dishes" gradually spread in the Donghaikou area. In the middle period of Tongzhi, the descendants of the Li family opened up their ancestral business and opened a workshop specializing in the production of shrimp oil side dishes in Jinzhou City. In order to maintain the established reputation, the raw materials of the four kinds of side dishes must be carefully selected. Cucumbers, which are about an inch long, must have flowers and thorns on the top; celery, which is suitable for post-autumn products, is green in color and hollow; "It is suitable to have thick flesh and flat shape. It can be placed in the palm of the hand and held firmly without deformation; cowpeas should be crisp and slender." The pickling method varies from item to item, not only to maintain freshness but also to retain the original taste. From then on, "shrimp oil side dishes" were named "Jinzhou". Because Jinzhou side dishes are delicious and delicious, they are gradually recognized by people and become a good winter food. Jinzhou side dishes have become famous for a while. This is the origin of Jinzhou side dishes.

Jinzhou’s newest gourmet place is the RT-Mart Good Food Plaza. There is a Liangpinjia food court at the north entrance of RT-Mart on the first floor of the ancient pagoda. There is also a Liangpinjia food court at the west gate of RT-Mart at the stadium. It has a collection of delicious food and an elegant environment. You can find all kinds of delicacies and snacks from all over the world.

As an authentic Jinzhou native who has been in the wine shop for 20 years, let me talk to you about the delicious food in Jinzhou, Liaoning. The following are all personal opinions, if you don’t like it, don’t comment.

First place, Jinzhou BBQ. There are barbecues all over Jincheng, wherever there is food, there is barbecue. Because Jinzhou BBQ is popular and has many diners, the ingredients are relatively fresh. The best feature is that it can bake anything. Flying in the sky are pigeons and quails; running on the ground are sheep, cows, chickens, and pigs; flying on the ground are locusts, grasshoppers, and cocoons; swimming in the water are fish, squid, shrimp, and clams; on the ground are Long ones, beans, eggplants, leeks, peanuts; artificial ones, tofu, tofu skin, steamed buns, bread. Oops, I can’t tell you all! Classic barbecue restaurants include Xiaobo, Lao Wan, God of Cookery, Xiao Guo, Steppe Wolf, Gaojia Roasted Pigeon, Jiaxing Roasted Pigeon, etc.

Second place, seafood pickled cabbage pot. Every winter after the light snow, the hot pickled cabbage pot is the favorite of Jincheng people. The key to Jincheng's sauerkraut pot is the sauerkraut, which must be pickled in the old-fashioned way to have a strong flavor. Add seafood, shrimp clams, flower-covered crabs, oysters, shrimps, clams, fermented bean curd, and chive flowers, and it tastes great. That is pickled cabbage on a green flower. Basically, Chinese restaurants serve this kind of food in season. I prefer the ones from Home Taste Kitchen.

The third place is the whole sheep feast. The best place to make whole sheep in Jinzhou is Yixian. Now there are many branches in Jinzhou, or chefs participate.

Fourth place, donkey meat. Dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground. Donkey meat is well cooked and delicious. Qin Sanlu is a big shop and the prices are quite reasonable. Gaotaizi donkey meat in Yixian County has a strong local flavor.

Let’s just say this first. I haven’t eaten yet. I’m going to have barbecue today [laughs] [yeah]! ! !

Jinzhou has formed a culture of skewers and is famous throughout the country as an intangible cultural heritage. So eating skewers in Jinzhou is a must. If you want to ask which skewers restaurant in Jinzhou is delicious, as a senior foodie in Jinzhou, it’s really hard to say, because there are so many barbecues in Jinzhou, and they are all delicious. Due to different personal preferences, several unique and famous barbecue restaurants have been created, such as Xiaoguo Chicken Feet, Liu Chicken Head, Tang Chicken Head, Gaojia Pigeon, Moon Bay Pigeon, Laobai BBQ, Dongmei BBQ, and Halal Yi BBQ. , Kangjia BBQ, LaoDu BBQ and so on. Nowadays, barbecues are all about culture, such as stringing memories, music barbecue square, and No. 1 Mansion. The decoration is so high-end! But what Jinzhou people really like most about barbecue is the original street stall barbecue. The night breeze blows, and they set up a small table on the edge of the curb, with large plastic cups and buckets of loose beer. "Boss, two more kidneys!" This is the authentic Jinzhou barbecue!
