Reviews
- wandering_moonflowerHonestly if you're going for value and wanna avoid the tourist traps, here's what I'd say. Came here with my family for a dinner get-together and we were pretty happy. If it's a family meal or hanging out with friends, get the Hu Shi yi pin guo (basically a big stew hotpot situation) and the Hui-style farmhouse chicken soup. One pot dish plus a soup, throw in a dry pot shredded bamboo or the Hui-style stir-fried pork and you're basically set. Their sesame flatbread is legit — super fragrant and makes a great main to soak up everything. Heads up though: the private rooms are really nice but the price jumps up a lot. If you just want a normal meal the main hall is totally fine. Also you can BYOB which saves a few bucks. Weekends get packed so book ahead, especially if you want a window seat. Overall the food is proper Anhui-style and tastes legit, but it's not cheap. Just keep an eye on your budget when ordering and you'll have a way better time.
