"Nanshan Hot Pot Street" is the largest hot pot gathering place in Chongqing, and the hot pot here is not only authentic, but also full of new food environment. One of the most prestigious Xianlongjing has turned the hot pot restaurant into a lotus pond park, and the dining area is set up around the lotus pond, connected by small bridges and flowing water and eaves pavilions, with the fragrance of flowers and fairy mist. Diners can sing karaoke, mahjong, take pictures, fish, and enjoy lotus in the park, and the moonlight is white after nightfall, and occasionally a graceful minor tune faintly comes, the beautiful scenery and food complement each other, which is the best choice for banqueting friends from other places or weekend family gatherings.
While refining the environment, the restaurant is not sloppy about hot pot, and the production of pot base and meals is among the best in Chongqing. The base of the red pot is stir-fried with Sky Eagle Pepper, Mauwen Sichuan Pepper and fresh butter. Tianying pepper belongs to the Chaotian pepper variety, which has a strong spicy taste and stamina, and under the stimulation of high temperature, all capsaicin is released into butter. The bottom of the pot is not fermented after it is fried, and the taste is not as mellow as the old hot pot, but it is better to use fresh oil and obvious spicy feeling.
Not eating hot pot is equivalent to going to Chongqing, not eating hairy belly is equivalent to not eating hot pot, no matter which hot pot restaurant you choose, hairy belly is a must-have. In addition to the supply of ordinary fresh hairy tripe, Xianlongjing also has a three-hour hairy tripe from the slaughterhouse for 228 yuan/catty. The restaurant has shortened the time from the slaughterhouse to the table to 3 hours, the quality is fresh, and the crispness and slag degree are better than ordinary hairy tripe, which is suitable for diners with a large budget. There are two types of yellow throat, pig yellow throat and beef yellow throat, which are also fresh in quality, but the difference is that the latter has a thicker texture and is more chewy. Yellow throat is often mistaken for an animal's throat because of its word for "larynx", when in fact it is a large artery located in the ventricles.
In addition to nearly 100 kinds of classic dishes, Xian Longjing also provides a lot of fresh dishes. The coriander lotus root balls are made from the lotus root in the store's own lotus pond, the lotus root is crisp and crisp, and the crisp of the lotus root grains after chopping is dissolved into the meat puree, and the entrance is refreshing and delicious. The beef tripe is made of beef net stomach, which has a crispier and thicker taste than the common rumen hairy belly. Horse lungs select the anterior lobe of the horse's lungs, which have been boiled with hot water before serving, and can be eaten with dry dishes after boiling for 5 minutes after being cooked, which is fresh and tender and glutinous, and the taste is more delicate than that of pig lungs.
Xianlongjing has two stores in Yihe Park and Liansheng Lake on Nanshan, and there is little difference in environment, taste and service between the branches. The service staff are well-trained, and they are active and timely in guiding, ordering, serving, and canceling dishes. The best time to dine in Xianlongjing is in summer when the lotus flowers are in bloom, and the rest of the time is mainly to enjoy the lotus leaves and ponds, and the scenery is slightly inferior to that in summer. However, most of the tables and chairs in the restaurant are located outdoors, and there are many mosquitoes in the summer, which will have a certain impact on the dining experience. Xianlongjing is located on Nanshan Mountain, it is recommended to drive or take a taxi to go there, and the surrounding parking is convenient.
