Zhuangjiajie is an early chain of Hunan restaurants in Suzhou, with nearly 20 branches mainly located in Kunshan, Changshu and Mudu, and a small number of branches in Wuzhong District are closer to the center of Suzhou.
As a relatively large chain store, the Zhuangjia industry is different from the low-end Jiangnan Commune, which attaches more importance to the training of chefs, and has held several consecutive cooking PK competitions in Kunshan City in recent years, and all the contestants are capable chefs in the Zhuangjia industry. Zhang Xiaochun, a master of Hunan cuisine, also served as an on-site judge and taught cooking skills to the chefs. Such a healthy competition and incentive mechanism is conducive to improving the level of the kitchen, and the taste of the dishes is naturally more guaranteed.
In the Hunan restaurant in Suzhou, the dishes in the village are relatively complete, including the popular classic Hunan cuisine, nearly 40 kinds of home-cooked dishes, their own specialties, perhaps in order to adapt to various tastes, there are also a small number of mutton dishes and Cantonese cuisine, involving steaming, dry pot, stir-frying, cold dressing and stewing, the taste is relatively rich. On the whole, the dealer industry caters to the local eating habits, the dishes are not too spicy, only the chopped pepper fish head to maintain the local spiciness of Hunan, to spread the chili sauce and millet pepper all over the big fish head and ensure the flavor, natural spicy.
Cost-effective is also a major competitiveness in the dealer industry, with large quantities of dishes, affordable prices, and each branch is equipped with a private room, which is very suitable for daily dinners. As a reminder, each branch has a different set of dishes, such as Shengze store has special pepper preserved egg eggplant and pipa duck, and Canglang New Town has delicious Indian flying cakes, if regular customers visit different branches, they may wish to try the special dishes.
However, the stir-fried and steamed dishes in the dealer world are in charge of different chefs, and each chef has different qualifications, and after more restaurants, the production has decreased, and the same dish may be made very differently in different branches. If you're not feeling the right to take the plunge, you can order classic Hunan dishes such as the signature fish head, stir-fried pork with chili, home-brewed tofu, taro pork ribs and spicy stir-fried fish, which are basically of a high standard and have a more stable taste. Like pickled cabbage fish, most Hunan restaurants in Suzhou do not do well, and it is purely a famous Chairman Mao's braised pork, and almost no Hunan restaurant can beat the sauce recipe of old Suzhou, which is not worth trying.
Due to the popular positioning, the large and small scattered seats in the bookmaker store are relatively abundant, and the private rooms are simple and comfortable. The service is uneven, and it varies greatly from branch to branch.
