Xu Ji Jun Flavor Old Hot Pot - Business Reviews

In the 50-70s of the last century, Chengdu's industry developed vigorously, and enterprises such as Hongguang Electron Tube Factory and Jinjiang Electric Machinery Factory built factories in the eastern suburbs. The Xinhong Road community is the leader in the east, covering Shuanglin, Xinhong Road, Petroleum Community and several factories and mining communities in Xinhua Community. Xu Ji Junwei old hot pot is located in one of the Shuanglin Zhongheng Road, the store is at the entrance of the community, rebuilt from a residence, indoor and outdoor just 15 tables, although there is a stock well atmosphere everywhere, but fortunately it is clean and tidy.

The boss is a native of Chengdu, but the craft of stir-frying at the bottom of the pot was specially learned in Chongqing. In addition to the butter base in the bottom of the pot, a large piece of yellow pure butter is additionally added, and the oil aroma is quite strong after the soup is turned into soup with Laoyin tea. According to the store, each pot of ingredients is used enough 5 catties of butter, and when stir-frying, Shizhu red pepper, Maowen pepper and bean paste are added to the butter and fried for 7 hours. There are also two filtration processes along the way, which drain all the dregs of various seasonings, so that, unlike other old Chongqing hot pots, there are hardly any crumbs in the bottom of the pot. Xu Ji has also improved the spiciness, adding Yin chili peppers from Guizhou instead of Chongqing Chaotian chili peppers when making the soup, and the spiciness is reduced by one level, and the stomach will not feel hot and spicy after eating. However, the reduction of spiciness does not mask the saltiness well, and some dishes will become salty after being cooked for a long time.

Duck blood is Xu Kee's signature dish, which is heated with the bottom of the pot and can be raised when it floats to the noodle soup, and the entrance is spicy and tender. The special luncheon meat is pink and tender, with a lot of lean meat added to it, and you can clearly taste the brushiness of the meat when eating. Jingshui dried cowhide is braised dried beans, which are pressed tightly and eat particularly chewy. The rest such as beef liver, slaughterhouse hairy tripe, old meat slices and Wulong wide noodles are the main dishes of the store, and they are almost a must-order on the table.

Xu Ji currently has 4 stores in Chengdu, and the bottom of the pot is uniformly fried and delivered to the store, so there is no difference in taste between the branches. Most of the staff in the store are friendly, but the manpower is limited, and the response will drop significantly during peak hours. After dining in Xu Ji, interested friends can also go to the eastern suburbs memory park not far away. The memory of the eastern suburbs is similar to that of Beijing 798, which was rebuilt from the original Hongguang electron tube factory, and there are not only remnants of abandoned industrial factories in the park, but also many new music restaurants, bars and exhibition halls, with a strong literary and artistic atmosphere.

It is worth mentioning that a roadside hot pot in Chengdu has been quite popular recently, and it is understood that it was opened by the sister of Xu Ji's boss, and the base material is also supplied by Xu Ji.
