Mountain Farmstead - Business Reviews

Qiandao Lake, located southwest of Hangzhou, is an artificial lake formed by the damming of the Xin'anjiang Hydroelectric Power Station in 1959. At present, Qiandao Lake has become a national 5A-level tourist area, and has gathered a large number of excellent hotels and catering resources. Located in Wanxiang Road, Lake District, Shannongbao Farm, the dishes are stable and reliable, the service is good, and it has won the title of "Excellent Farmhouse Operator" and "Recommended Place for Tourism Consumption" for many times after opening for many years, with an excellent reputation.

According to the 2017 Nutrient Status Index of Reservoirs of National Importance, the water of Qiandao Lake is in a state of eutrophication and has reached the highest level of Class I water quality, which is the standard for source water. Qiandao Lake is also a golden area for fishery farming: the water quality of the lake is depleted by nutrients, and the lake water is rarely full of algae and plankton, and the fish need to swim long distances to hunt; The clear and clean water of the lake reduces the impurities in the fish and reduces the smell of silt. Therefore, the fish in this lake area are well-proportioned, large and black, and have high edible value.

Qiandao Lake fish head is a local specialty and a signature dish of Shannongbao. The ingredients are usually selected to weigh up to five catties of huge silver carp, which is packed in an iron plate, ginger salt to remove the fish, and boiled with white radish and tofu soup, resulting in fragrant and mellow taste, and the simple ginger salt seasoning is to wake up the fresh and sweet taste of the fish, highlighting the original taste of the ingredients, and one serving is enough for 6-8 people to enjoy. If you want to taste the various ways to eat fish, you may want to order "one fish and two eats". The body and tail of the fish can be cooked in braised sauce, vinegar and chopped pepper respectively, so you can feel the ultimate combination of tender fish and various flavors at the same time. The local chicken pot is an innovative dish that is popular with diners. The free-range chicken is then chopped and put into a casserole, seasoned and marinated with cola, soy sauce and cooking wine, and added plum vegetables for stewing, the taste is sweet and greasy and rich, the meat is soft but not firewood, especially suitable for eating with rice. In addition to the above-mentioned signature dishes, fried winter bamboo shoots with sauced meat, stir-fried garlic sprouts with dried tofu, and scrambled eggs with lichen are also worth recommending.

The nearly one million acres of water area of Qiandao Lake is home to a variety of high-quality species of fish, such as bighead carp, crucian carp, grass carp and thorn fish, which are all common ingredients in local restaurants, and are worth ordering and tasting. It should be noted that the Qiandao Lake area has implemented a strict policy of protecting fishery resources since 14 years, strictly prohibiting private fishing. At present, the fish ingredients sold by major restaurants in the lake area are provided by official institutions or farmed in their own fish ponds, and diners should be wary of the promotion of "wild fish" and "free-range fish" in some restaurants.

Although the store environment is no different from that of an ordinary street restaurant, the warm and meticulous personal service of the proprietress and the green mountain view outside the floor-to-ceiling windows can add a lot of points to the dining experience. The staff will be able to give you instructions on how to order food according to the number of diners. There are plenty of halls, outdoor and private rooms to cater for different groups of diners. As the ingredients are freshly made, the serving speed is slow, but the food is more than enough to offset the boredom of waiting for the food by enjoying the alpine green tea and melon seeds provided by the restaurant before the meal. It is worth noting that due to the location of the store near the InterContinental Qiandao Lake Hotel, it is not possible to reach the store by bus, and customers need to drive to the store. Vehicles can be parked in the restaurant's parking lot.
