Many snail noodle shops in Shenzhen are under the prestige, but in fact, it is difficult to live up to the situation. Some stores have made localized improvements to reduce the original recognizable "smell", but have become nondescript; Some stores strive to be authentic, but due to the limitations of ingredients, seasonings, and recipes, the degree of restoration is less than half; There are also restaurants that only operate it as a regular fast food.
The snail noodles are sour and fragrant in the soup, and they can even taste the sweetness, and they have a local charm of Liuzhou. Don't be surprised if you don't find snail meat in the soup, just as there is no fish in the shredded fish-flavored pork, there are no snails in standard snail noodles. The soup is usually made with pork barrel bones and spices such as kaempfera, star anise, cloves, ginger, and cinnamon, but the snails are usually discarded after the soup is boiled, so if you eat snail meat in the soup, it is the store that is adding to the problem.
The strange smelly aroma in the snail noodles is actually due to the sour bamboo shoots. After the tender raw bamboo shoots are shelled, they are fermented in the urn with water, and after half a month, the sour taste is tangy, after stir-frying and simmering, the sour taste is still there and the smell is reduced, and the soup can neutralize the earthy smell of the snails, becoming the finishing touch. It's a pity that the sour bamboo shoots of snail lala are too salty, but the sour beans are very light; The other side dishes are also extremely unremarkable, and the peanuts and yuba that should be crispy and crispy are all failures, not crispy or fragrant. The powder used is fine, but the chewiness and elasticity are readily available, but there will be a strong powder gum flavor at the first time, so you might as well float and sink a few more times in the red oil soup.
If you're willing to ignore the imperfections of the side dishes, Luolala is one of the few snail noodle shops in Shenzhen that is worth trying.
