  Was wandering around this area by myself and randomly stopped at an iron pot fish stew place — honestly such a good pick for solo dining. The fish was so tender it basically fell apart when I picked it up with my chopsticks, literally melted in my mouth, and the broth was super fresh and flavorful. The wide glass noodles in the pot had soaked up all that soup and were so chewy and tasty. The server was really attentive too, kept coming by to ask if I wanted more broth. The place was clean inside, with these wooden tables and chairs that give off this cute little countryside vibe. Eating here alone didn't feel awkward at all — actually felt pretty relaxed and at peace.
