Bianhe Street is the main street in the north-south direction of Yueyang Tower. The street is a stone road paved with granite, which is about three meters wide. There are many shops on both sides of the street, including tea houses, inns, restaurants, restaurants, snacks and bars with the theme of Dongting fish. Some shops have a row of red lanterns hanging in front of them, which are warm and dazzling. Some hung rectangular or triangular flags, which made people feel like they were in ancient streets.
The New Year is over, and it's not the weekend. Bianhe Street has lost the hustle and bustle of the New Year Festival. In the alley of Qingshiban, tourists in twos and threes leisurely taste local specialty snacks and Junshan Yinzhen tea, and appreciate handicrafts and Yuezhou kiln ceramics.
My husband and I are walking on the street paved with green slate, and the snacks and delicious food on both sides make people look good. "Fresh shrimp cake" tastes delicious, crisp and delicious. Hunan's special "stinky tofu" is tender outside, smells stinky and tastes delicious. The "hemp fiber radish" is golden in color, crisp and refreshing, and it makes people's appetite open. Traditional handmade sugar art and handmade ginger candy shops are next to each other. In front of each snack bar, people suddenly appeared from the ground, surrounded by foodies waiting in line.
This snail business is good. The proprietress is busy packing boxes, and the boss is busy collecting fees and attracting guests. Several huge stainless steel pots are filled with snails, which are placed on the counters of shops. The snails in the pots are so big that they stand out. Two or three snails can hold a bowl. Red dried peppers with ginger slices and thick soup are mouth watering.
I approached to take a photo, and my husband told me, "This big snail is called Ampullaria gigas, which is very cold, and it is easy to have diarrhea after eating it. There are many snail parasites in the river. To enjoy its delicious taste, it must be cleaned. Snail has the effect of clearing away heat and improving eyesight, and can also treat jaundice, beriberi and hemorrhoids. In addition, aquatic plants and animals are cool, so ginger or pepper must be added when cooking to balance their coolness. " My husband is like a few treasures, and he talks about it.
"when is the best season to eat?" I asked curiously. The husband replied with a smile: "There is a folk saying that" snails are full in March ".The best time to eat snails is around the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is the most fat time of the year. At this time, the snail not only tastes fleshy and delicious, but also does not have to worry about eating a mouthful of snail. "
ok, I'm just going to take a photo. I think of the sugar and oil Baba I bought when I visited Bianhe Street last Spring Festival. It looks attractive, soft and delicious. I eat too fast. When my husband eats a musty smell of glutinous rice flour, I have slipped down to my stomach for three times, but I can't spit it out. The next day, I had no adverse reactions.
Because of this, my husband always jokes that I am a "stomach while the iron is hot". Most of the diners in this street are foreign tourists, so there is a phenomenon that vendors are shoddy. From then on, I dare not buy snacks here.
while taking pictures, I asked my husband, "Alas, I didn't see any sugar and oil Baba sold today." My husband smiled, "Do you still want to eat sugar and oil Baba?" "No, I just want to take a picture of Baba." I am unwilling to say, "I just saw a brand of" Honest and Civilized Demonstration Street "on the right side of the entrance of this street. It should be that the on-site rectification and management of urban management has achieved results."
Going forward, I suddenly caught my eye with Fan Zhongyan's lettering "Worry about the world first, and enjoy the world later". Without Fan Zhongyan's "The Story of Yueyang Tower", so many people would not know about Yueyang Tower, and so many people would not yearn for it. Yueyang Tower is well written throughout, but the two famous sayings are "Worry about the world first, and enjoy it later". Yueyang Tower is famous all over the world because of these two famous sayings, which is probably unexpected by Teng Zijing and Fan Zhongyan.
out of the snack street in Bianhe Street, we look into Dongting Lake next to Yueyang Tower. The sand trawler has resumed normal operation and is carrying sand in an orderly and repeated manner.
Dongting Lake and Yueyang Tower are connected into a whole. Standing on Yueyang Tower, you can see sailing boats and egrets flying in the lake. From a distance, you can see that the water is vast and boundless, and it leads to Wuxia in the north and Dongting Lake in Xiaoxiang, Antarctica. It seems that Meng Haoran's "and a mist from the Yun and Meng valleys, has beleaguered the city of Yueyang" is not empty talk.
The "Master Cao Bean Skin" across the street from Bianhe Street is a local network red punch shop. It is said that the bean skin inside is burnt outside and waxy inside, and dozens or even hundreds of them are packaged and mailed to foreign foodies. There are three flavors in the shop: beef stuffing, mushroom pork stuffing and pork stuffing.
When we went, we only had pork stuffing. 5 yuan paid for one. Well, buy one and try it first. Bite it down, the bean skin is a little hard, the skin is a little short of oil, and the pepper flavor is quite strong. My husband tasted it and said it was not delicious. I didn't feel as soft and thick as the bean skin I bought in Wuhan.
I walked and ate along the street, passing Miaoqian Street, Baling Bridge and Xiaolongcheng. These places used to be the only places for old Yueyang people to buy clothes and bedding, but now they have been demolished to meet the needs of the times and transformed into huge empty parking lots.
I came to BBK Supermarket and visited Uniqlo for a while. I feel that his casual sweatpants and basic shirts are ok. I can go and have a look next time when I need them.
The three floors above the supermarket are full of all kinds of delicious snacks, such as pasta from Qin Jiu He in Shaanxi, famous snacks from Rong Li Ji in Chengdu, and Hunan snacks from Changsha Old Street. The key words are lined up: delicious, moist and fragrant? Light, spicy, delicious, smooth, mellow, sweet and sweet? The secret spicy ... are tempting us to walk in and sit down.
We have eaten fried noodles with lard, sugar and oil Baba, and noodle nests in Changsha Old Street, and the taste is OK. Because my mouth was on fire, my husband advocated eating Chengdu's "Rong Li famous snacks". My husband ordered a braised pork rice and gave me a three-fresh wonton soup. The skin of the wonton soup is very thick, and the meat stuffing is still fresh. There are mushrooms and braised pork in the braised pork rice. The taste is very light and the overall feeling is very general. I won't eat it again next time.
We were full of soup and a little tired, so we ended our trip to Bianhe Street.
