Opened in 2015, Qianyue Tea has transformed from a home-cooked tea restaurant to a vegetarian private banquet, and has become very popular. With its elegant environment, fresh materials, exquisite plates, and innovative dishes, Qianyue Tea can be described as a boutique vegetarian restaurant. In addition, as a vegetarian restaurant, Qianyue Tea uses eggs, milk and other animal products as the main ingredients of some dishes, which is rare in the industry.
In the market where imitation meat dishes are popular, Qianyueming insists on not offering imitation meat dishes, but some dishes contain animal products such as eggs and milk and small meat such as garlic, which are not vegan. The main ingredients of the menu are mushrooms, reeds, and fruits, supplemented by beans and vegetables. Qianyue Tea mainly draws on the cooking methods of Sichuan cuisine and Jianghu cuisine, and the overall taste is on the heavy side, but the seasoning is just right, and the flavor is not too salty. Qianyue Tea is in the form of a set meal, which is divided into two grades: 138 yuan and 238 yuan for a single person, the former includes a meal and a table dish, while the latter is a dish for one person. The menu is set by the chef, but customers can ask the restaurant to adjust the menu to suit their tastes and taboos.
Braised dishes are rare in Chongqing's vegetarian restaurants, and Qianyue Ming's spicy braised three treasures are its signature dishes. Spicy marinated three treasures usually include pearl mushrooms, black-skinned chicken fir and quail eggs, and some ingredients will be slightly changed according to the season. Among them, the production of pearl fungus is small, the meat is thick and the stalk is short, and the smell is fragrant; The black-skinned chicken fir has the title of "the crown of all mushrooms", which is rich in nutrition, and both are high-quality mushrooms. The spicy marinated three treasures are marinated through a variety of spices, without adding monosodium glutamate and chicken essence, the fresh fragrance is delicious, the saltiness is properly controlled, and the production is good. Spicy stir-fried sea mushrooms are also the restaurant's main dish, fried with ginger and garlic, red pepper, garlic moss and other condiments, crispy and springy, the taste is like meat, the taste is heavy and oily, and the spicy and salty fragrance has a hint of refreshing, which is really rare. Qian Yueming claims that it uses the top of the natural wild sea mushrooms in Antarctica, and also said that it is the only one in Chongqing that has sea mushroom dishes, but in fact, restaurants such as Renren Literacy and One Flower and One Leaf also provide them, which is an exaggeration. Tomatoes are also crazy and a specialty cold dish that is boiled, hollowed out of the inside, and filled with salad dressing and fried oyster mushrooms. The epidermis is solidified with algin, which is then cooled to form. The color of this dish is bright red and oily, the shape is exquisite, the eggplant meat is sweet and sour, the mushroom slices are crispy and fragrant, and the rich texture and taste jump into the tongue when you bite into it. Bouncing mango balls is an after-dinner dessert, in addition to mango, yellow peach and fresh milk, popping candy is also added. The fruit ball is broken at the entrance, the fruity aroma overflows the mouth, the jumping candy squeaks and pierces the tongue, and the Q bomb is fresh.
Located on the 3rd floor of Liujia Wharf Area B, Beibin Road, the location is somewhat hidden, and you need to pass through a tea house to enter the store. The restaurant is spacious, the design is antique, the Zen sound is lingering, and the overall environment is quiet and pure. Qianyue Tea is divided into a booth and a private room, and the private room has a minimum consumption of 898 yuan and can accommodate 15 people. The waiter has a good attitude and a gentle tone, and each dish is explained in detail, but the speed of serving is slow. It is advisable to book in advance, and the reservation text message will detail the location of the restaurant, the transportation route, and even the specific location of parking.
