Nanshan/Nanbin Road
Nanbin Road, which is separated from Guanyin Bridge by a river, is a lot deserted in terms of pedestrian flow, especially at night. But that doesn't stop the mouthies from coming here. If you go up to Nanshan via Nanbin Road, you will pass by Dongyuan 1891, an art commercial district, where young people gather and a craft beer bar where you can enjoy tranquility. Drive up Nanshan, you can see a cluster of hot pot restaurants, large or small, exuding the unique butter aroma of Chongqing hot pot, where diners can eat shabu while watching the night view of the Yangtze River from afar, which is very pleasant.
Xianlongjing Hot Pot Park
The Xianlongjing dining area located in the hot pot park is set up around the lotus pond, with the fragrance of flowers, the fairy mist, and the graceful minor tune in the evening, which is an excellent place to eat supper. The red pot base of Xian Longjing is stir-fried with Sky Eagle Pepper, Maowen Sichuan Pepper and fresh butter. After the bottom of the pot is fried, it is not fermented, and the taste is not as mellow as the old hot pot, but it is better to use fresh oil and obvious spicy feeling, which is suitable for spicy diners. Xianlongjing has a complete range of beef varieties, such as fire-breathing beef, freshly cut yellow beef, freshly cut yak meat, beef with skin, double pepper beef, spiced rake beef, snowflake fat beef, secret tender beef and other kinds of beef, no matter what kind of texture diners like, you can find it here. The service staff are well-trained, and they are active and timely in guiding, ordering, serving, and canceling dishes. However, since Xianlongjing is located on Nanshan Mountain, the transportation is inconvenient, it is recommended to drive or take a taxi to go there, and the surrounding parking is convenient.
Lu Pai Ba poured hot pot
Positioned as a hot pot villa, Ba Bao Hot is like a private mountain villa hidden in the depths of Nanshan Mountain, where customers can choose to dine in an indoor antique building or sit in an outdoor rockery pavilion overlooking the entire Chongqing night view. The hot red soup pot is made of Guizhou pepper, Hebei pepper and Maowen pepper, and the soup base is fragrant but not spicy. The quality of the ingredients is excellent: the Lupai buffalo tripe is made of fresh buffalo tripe, with thick leaves, rough surface, and full of toughness in the mouth; The secret crispy meat is made of the white fascia part connected to the back meat of the pig, which is quite crispy to eat. The staff in the store are warm and attentive and have a detailed understanding of the dishes.
The loquat garden food is fresh hot pot
Loquat Garden is one of the most spectacular hot pot restaurants in Nanshan, the whole restaurant occupies the top of Nanshan Mountain, built along the slope, from bottom to top in 6 layers of terraced rice field distribution, can accommodate more than 600 tables at the same time. At nightfall, the golden night lights and red lanterns reflect each other, creating a beautiful scene. The bottom of the pot is all hand-fried by the stir-fry chef, and the seasoning ratio of each pot bottom is accurate, and it has been fully fermented for 3-4 days before serving, so the body and durability of the bottom of the pot are excellent, and the more you cook, the more fragrant it is. In addition to the common hairy tripe, bezoar throat, mille-feuille tripe and beef liver, the store also offers spicy and tender tenderloin beef, soft and glutinous beef tendons and beef arch mouth, fresh bullwhip with a firm texture, and beef ears with a crisp texture.

Three kinds of dishes for old man Yi
In 1988, the old man Yi, who played the signboard of "Chongqing Jianghu cuisine", is regarded as the originator of Chongqing Jianghu cuisine. Today, Old Man Yi retains the most classic "three big and small" and more than a dozen side dishes, plus four local snacks, returning to the number at the beginning of the opening. The big three items include lemon pickled cabbage fish, spicy river frog, and king shrimp and crab pot, all of which can be added with side dishes. Among these three hard dishes, the more recommended are spicy frog and sauerkraut fish, the former contains bullfrog, shrimp and flower nails, as well as lotus root slices and lotus skin, and there are many rattan peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, and Chaotian peppers in the red oil soup base, reflecting the "spicy and fresh fragrance" of boiled dishes. Another sauerkraut fish is added with lemon as a seasoning, and the sour taste replaces the spicy taste as the main seasoning, which is sour and appetizing, suitable for friends who can't eat spicy. Most of the waiters in the store are young people, with a courteous attitude and responsiveness; Complimentary snacks such as walnuts, cherry tomatoes, and candies are provided at each table.
Two Cups Craft Beer Bar
Chongqing's craft beer market is still in its infancy, and most bars lack the ambience of the atmosphere, but Two Cups is an exception. It integrates the topography of Chongqing's mountain city into the space, and the solid wood carved sofa simulates the undulating mountains and rivers, and at the same time serves as the division of different areas, amplifying the sense of space, visually making the store larger, and allowing guests to sit in postures such as sitting, lying, tripping, and leaning, highlighting the relaxed and natural state. Two Cups has a lot of beer, but there is a lack of fine spirits. Lighter craft beers such as fruit beers, wheat beers, and pale ales have become the mainstay of the store's liquor collection, which is understandable for a newbie bar that will make slightly more savvy customers feel less selective.
