Huohonglong is a brand from Xiamen, which successfully settled in Hangzhou in the summer of 2018, attracting widespread attention from crayfish lovers in Hangzhou.
In terms of the source of crayfish, Huohonglong chose to cooperate with farmers in Hongze Lake in Jiangsu Province and Qianjiang River in Hubei Province. Every morning, the crayfish arrive at the store and let it sit overnight before the restaurant cuts its head, removes the shrimp line, brushes and picks. The pretreatment of each flavor of crayfish is different, but the individuals that are dying and dead are removed to ensure freshness.
There are 4 specifications of the crayfish of the flaming red dragon, which are 5 taels (ordinary), 1 tael (superb), 1.2 taels (king of shrimps), and 2 taels (king of kings). The restaurant has always used its own crayfish as a promotional point, and also said that the crayfish of 2 taels is limited to 10 copies per day, and it is recommended that diners make a reservation directly.
Attentive diners will notice that the Flaming Red Dragon's sign reads "Braised Crayfish Big Big Enough" proclamation slogan, and even the menu has "special care" for the braised crayfish area, all of which show confidence in the taste of their own braised crayfish. The restaurant also thoughtfully sets three levels of spiciness, including mild spicy, normal and extra spicy, to meet the needs of more diners.
For diners who don't know how to eat spicy food and want to try the signature dish, they can consider choosing the slightly spicy oil stewed king of kings, which tastes similar to the thirteen spices. Finally, as a reminder, the slightly spicy taste has just reached the limit of non-spicy diners, so remember to be mentally prepared. In terms of iced taste, the practice of the fire red dragon is a little different, the industry generally uses its own best and largest crayfish for ice, but the fire red dragon only uses the best specifications, fortunately, the weight of more than 1 tael is not inferior to others. The crayfish is only brushed, boiled on the spot, and then chilled with ice, the shrimp meat has a firm taste, and it is spicy and sweet when eaten with dipping sauce.
The environment of the flaming red dragon is a standard modern crayfish restaurant, and the various jumping colors are believed to surprise many diners. There are 3 private rooms with 2 large and 1 small, so it is recommended to reserve in advance. The restaurant has a slightly inferior level of service, with a small number of waiters and a scramble of staff, which gives a poor impression to diners waiting in line.
