Dongshan Town, located on the south bank of Taihu Lake, is one of the famous historical and cultural towns in China. Yuhua Scenic Spot, Lugang Ancient Village, Qiyuan Garden and other well-known scenic spots are located here. In addition, there is a ring road that runs through the whole territory of Dongshan, and it has a beautiful scenery of Taihu Lake. At the same time, a large number of restaurants built along the river serve thousands of tourists who drive to the river every day, and business is booming.
Drive to Moli Village in the middle of the Ring Road, where Delicious Home Farm Stay beckons halfway up the slope. Compared with the surrounding high-rise inns and B&Bs, the mottled façade of the delicious house is only marked by lanterns and signboards, which is unremarkable at first glance. But it is such a small restaurant on the street that opened a large branch in Xishan as early as 2016 and received a lot of praise, and its hidden strength is self-evident.
The eternal lake scenery with rippling blue waves is indispensable to the "Taihu Lake Three Whites" composed of Taihu Lake white fish, Taihu Lake white shrimp and whitebait scrambled eggs. This golden combination of Taihu cuisine uses catfish, whitebait and beautiful white shrimp from the Taihu Lake area as ingredients. When making, we do not use heavy seasoning to enhance the flavor and fragrance, and pay attention to retaining the original taste of the ingredients. Taihu Lake white fish body is translucent, the body is long and narrow, the fish body is opened and put on the plate when cooking, and only green onions, ginger slices, and soy sauce are added to enhance the umami after a simple change of knife, and the fresh burst out in the mouth, and the meat is smooth and smooth. Taihu white shrimp is known for its firm taste, simple boiling in white water, the freshness of the fine white shrimp is firmly locked, and the delicate shrimp juice oozing out when chewed in the shell is very refreshing. The scrambled eggs of whitebait in the finale have a unique flavor and fragrance, which makes people full of flavor and is very good for rice.
Specialties such as small fish pot and fried snails with sauce are not to be missed. The small fish pot is fried in an oil pan, stirred with coarse salt and chili powder, and a large piece of glutinous rice is added to the pan and served on the table, the taste is crispy and the more you eat, the more fragrant it is. The sauce fried snails have the solid appearance of thick oil red sauce, and the large snails are soaked in the thickening sauce, which is salty and fresh, fatty and attractive. It is worth noting that there are also homemade local products such as loquat honey, sausages, lard paste, and fruit wine, so interested customers may wish to choose and buy.
The environment of the restaurant is the same as the simple façade, and the hall is decorated with scattered greenery, and the wooden tables and chairs are slightly in line with the natural scenery. Stepping into the landscape dining on the second and third floors, you will be accompanied by a beautiful lake view. If you want to dine with this view, we recommend that you make a reservation with the owner in advance to avoid falling out of the air. Due to the remote location of the restaurant and the shortage of parking spaces in the surrounding area, it is recommended that customers travel off-peak in exchange for convenient parking.
