Fangcun Rongshutou - Sigh Lao Chicken Pot - Business Reviews

Guangzhou Internet celebrity chicken pot restaurant, one of the chicken pot restaurants that has been recommended several times by the major local food public accounts, must be full of seats at every meal. This shop originally started from Luju Road in Fangcun, and has been open for more than eight years, because the store is opened next to the big banyan tree, so it is called "Banyan Tree Head Chicken Pot", and this big banyan tree has become a landmark to identify the old store in Fangcun. Nowadays, in addition to the old store in Fangcun, Sigh Lao Chicken Pot has opened a total of 3 branches in Guangzhou: Jiangnan West Store, Wenming Road Store and Zhuying Store. The chicken pot with rich sauce is a model in the industry, including water fish chicken pot, abalone chicken pot, sea cucumber chicken pot, snail chicken pot, and there is no shortage of chicken pot with a slightly light taste. All the chickens in the old store in Fangcun are freshly slaughtered on site, and sometimes you can see the skillful operation of the chicken chopping master on the spot. The clay pot of the chicken pot has just been served, the sauce is rich and fragrant, and the chicken is decorated with green coriander and garlic leaves, which looks very gluttonous. After serving, the chicken pot is boiled on a charcoal stove, which can continue to maintain the high temperature of the chicken pot without letting it boil, so that the simmer can better lock in the original flavor of the ingredients, and secondly, the chicken will slowly absorb the flavor as it is cooked. When the chicken pot is just served, the chicken has not yet tasted, the skin is salty but the inside is tasteless, so it is recommended not to rush to eat. After a little cooking, the sauce can penetrate into the chicken, and the saltiness is more balanced, and the texture of the chicken is firmer and the flavor is better. The abalone and snails in the chicken pot also add a lot of freshness to the chicken, and after the chicken is eaten, add water to the pot and then add the side dishes of your choice to cook. However, in recent years, many diners have reported that there are problems such as the taste of the chicken pot is too salty, the taste of the chicken is too hard, and the production level is not too stable. Although the old restaurant in Fangcun is a food stall with a harsh environment, it is very hot and mosquitoes during the summer meal, but it still has a loyal customer. Maybe it's a bit inappropriate to have a family dinner or a couple date in such an environment, compared to other branches, the environment is better, the business district is closer, and the taste is not far from the old store, but the feeling of eating around the charcoal stove is something that many electric stoves can't evoke.
