Aizi Noodle Shop
Some say that people in Changsha love to eat noodles, oh no, it's slurping noodles. Aizi Noodle Shop is a local favorite among Changsha natives. I haven't been to many other places, but I really like this one. I ordered two dishes: shredded meat soup noodles and steamed egg noodles with meat patty. The noodles here are alkaline noodles, with a delicate and soft texture, which is a characteristic of southern noodles. Northern noodles are rougher and more chewy. These noodles are very smooth and can also be described as refreshing.
Jiachang Bianfan Re Lu Liu
To be honest, the hot brine four-in-one in Changsha is a special delicacy, and the preparation is very simple. I did some research before coming to this Re Lu Liu, and the online reviews are quite good.
Handsome Guy's Shaobing
The taste is quite good, especially the sauce he brushes on. It's a bit spicy, and combined with other ingredients, the flavor is really suitable!
Wenheyou Old Changsha Lobster Restaurant
The location is right by the Xiang River, diagonally opposite to Du Fu Jiang Pavilion. A reminder for everyone: go at 4 PM in the afternoon, this way there might still be a few tables left. After 4:30, there will be no tables available, and the minimum waiting time will be more than an hour!
Big Brain Night Snack
This time, the Big Brain Night Snack is opposite Jinji Tangyou Tuo Tuo. Their lard mixed noodles are quite good. Although the environment is relatively poor, the taste is also good. Those who like it can give it a try. The price is average, 5 yuan per bowl!
Mengzhong BBQ Restaurant
As the saying goes, Mengzhong BBQ is a major event in the Changsha BBQ scene. When I came to Changsha, everyone recommended that I must go to Mengzhong and go early, otherwise, I wouldn't get a spot. We ordered 16 beef fat skewers for 15 yuan, 12 squid tentacles for 15 yuan, 12 green beans, and 16 tofu skewers for 10 yuan. Overall, the taste was very good, a bit spicy. The beef fat was crispier when grilled, and it's also their specialty. However, I personally prefer pork belly, which was grilled to perfection. I believe that to make good BBQ, the first is marination, and the second is grilling. They excelled in both. I highly recommend everyone to try it!
