The crowded Muslim Street is full of all kinds of food, and not far from the Dapi Courtyard, there is a local flavor of the string of incense shop, Lao Hui Fang Malatang. Malatang is not a pot of stew such as Yang Guofu Malatang or Zhang Liang Malatang, but the same way as the way to eat strings of incense, the dishes are worn into bamboo skewers and boiled into the pot. In some Sichuan and Chongqing areas, strings of incense are also called spicy tang.
Lao Hui Fang Malatang is a time-honored brand near Muslim Street, and it is also the most recommended string incense shop for local Muslims. The dipping sauce of Lao Huifang Malatang is the signature of the store. Different from the sesame oil dipping dishes of Sichuan and Chongqing, all the dipping dishes of Lao Hui Fang are based on sesame paste, and then different flavors of sesame sauce dipping dishes are concocted. Spicy bowl, three fresh bowls, garlic bowls, spicy bowls, sesame paste alone can be made into four different flavors of sauce, which is added with crushed peanuts, sesame oil, sesame seeds, pepper and other ingredients. All the dipping sauces are prepared by a special person, and the dipping area is filled with a whole table of prepared dipping sauces. The sesame paste is fragrant, and although there are chili peppers, it is not spicy in Sichuan and Chongqing.
However, there are almost no bright spots at the bottom of the pot in Lao Hui Fang, with only a few red dates and wolfberries floating on the noodles at the bottom of the clear soup pot, and the bottom of the red soup pot is not spicy. The bottom of the red soup pot in Lao Hui Fang is completely different from the string of incense in Sichuan and Chongqing, there is no butter or clear oil in the pot, and there is no oil fragrance, and the base of the pot has already been prepared and packed into a large bucket, and customers can directly boil the food after scooping it into the basin and adding water to boil.
Lao Huifang's dishes are more abundant, among which beef slices and mutton slices are almost a must-order at every table. Beef and mutton are cut in the store and put into boxes, each box is about half a catty, and the meat quality is relatively fresh. The price of Lao Huifang is cost-effective, and the bottom of the pot is free, but it requires at least 20 yuan for bamboo skewer dishes.
When eating skewers in Lao Hui Fang, the waiter will directly ask customers whether they want to eat mutton or beef, and many customers mistakenly think that it is a mandatory order. In fact, beef and mutton are not a must-order dish, but the waiter will not explain it directly, if you don't want to order, you can directly refuse.
The Lao Hui Fang store is relatively spacious, and seating can be arranged on the upper and lower floors, and the location will even be arranged to the door during peak hours. The hygiene situation is not as good as that of other incense stickers, with a simple sink area outside the door, and a large number of pots for soup bases piled up on the walls. If you want to try the rich flavor of sesame sauce, you can try it, but if you go with the expectation of fresh and spicy, you can only go home.
