🍲 Food Recommendations
🔸 Sifangping Thirty Buildings Restaurant
A local favorite hole-in-the-wall place with authentic stir-fried Hunan dishes. Recommend the knife-cut beef and radish sauerkraut with mung bean sheets
🔸 Changde Jinshi He's Beef Noodles
People from Changde really know good food! Try the dry-mixed beef noodles and add all kinds of condiments - mix well before eating for an amazing flavor!
🔸 Da Qing Boss Not In
Try their original creation - Sunshine Grape Beef, refreshing and not heavy at all, definitely not a "dark cuisine" dish!
