It has always been an undeniable saying,
There are two me in the world,
I am a foodie,
A me who really wants to lose weight.
Set off again when the weather is cold, go to Pingyao for a warm weekend!
I don’t know when it started this month, but the weather suddenly turned cold. The day before, I was wearing short sleeves and drinking a cold drink. I just took a nap, and the heavy coat came in handy. It seems that we met yesterday or in summer , It will be a chilly autumn when we meet again in a blink of an eye.
Wow, I really want to stay in the warm bed, but I am so enthusiastic about work, so I have to reluctantly say goodbye to the bed, put on ankle socks, paired with short boots, um...and long johns, and go to work !
I made an appointment with my good friend to go to the ancient city of Pingyao together. The weather was so cold, so I retreated. Then I thought it was just a matter of wearing more clothes. Besides, the tickets were all booked. Friends, Amway in the ancient city of Pingyao, if this is the case, why not miss it~
From the Qing Dynasty, the hundred-year-old official business station - Desheng Building
Desheng Building: Five-star recommendation
Address: No. 84, Mingqing Street, Pingyao Ancient City.
The inn was first built in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. It was a famous official and business station at that time. It was once prominent. The courtyard has a typical Ming and Qing architectural style. The main body of the courtyard is a two-story show building with two folds and three entrances, which is very rich in famous and popular characteristics.
The inn in Deshenglou tells us that fame is not a capital to show off, but a suitable business philosophy and a customer-oriented service attitude are the keys to maintaining popularity.
Is that what the shopkeeper said? Of course not, maybe they don’t know it themselves, they just think it’s a very common thing in reason, or it’s impossible to make money, of course making money is the foundation of survival, but it spreads from the inside out. The model that comes out is simple and considers everything for the guests, but it is not something ordinary people can stick to for a long time.
There are very few places that I fall in love with after I have been there once, and some of them even pass by, and I have lost my impression for a long time.
The Deshenglou Inn is an exception, as I have always said.
It was raining when I first arrived at the inn. I caught a cold and caught a cold. I didn’t take it seriously. The little brother at the front desk gave me two bags of cold medicine after checking in. Wow, he was very attentive and heart-warming. At the same time, I still feel a little unaccustomed to being so cared for by a stranger for the first time. I can see that they are very concerned about every guest who comes, and they always lead them to the room personally and give some precautions. If you want to go out to play, they will also give you the best play strategy.
People always use their strengths to cover up their shortcomings. Surrounded by such good services, is it because the room facilities of Deshenglou Inn are not good enough? NO NO NO, if you have these concerns, you must dispel this idea as soon as possible! Desheng Building is located in the most prosperous street in Pingyao Ancient City: Ming and Qing Streets. The location is also in the ancient city building, near the center of the ancient city. Such a superior location does not worry about the flow of customers at all. It is rare for the store to be so attentive.
Who says the room is not powerful, it is a traditional kang room in Shanxi, it is very unique, and the room is also beautifully decorated.

Eat a meal of authentic Jin cuisine in Pingyao——Hongwuji
Hong Wu Ji: Five-star recommendation
Address: No. 84, Mingqing Street, Pingyao Ancient City
Hongwuji mainly cooks traditional Shanxi cuisine and Pingyao local specialties. The ancient city of Pingyao was expanded to its current scale in the third year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, Hongwu has aspirations and a sense of creation. For his hometown and for Shanxi, he will create a style of Shanxi merchants in Pingyao and establish the beauty of Shanxi.
Hongwuji Hotel and Deshenglou Inn are in the same place, looking like the front and back yards. Because the inn left a good impression on us, we decided to eat here for the first meal, so that we fell in love with Hongwuji’s dishes. In addition to eating some snacks on the street, we also had lunch and dinner for the next few days. All of them are solved in Hongwuji. Hongwuji is the busiest Ming and Qing Street. It is the best choice for taking a walk after dinner, and you can go out to shop some specialty shops and so on.
Walking into a restaurant is like walking into a landscape.
Full of red lanterns, hanging in the front hall, nostalgic and very warm.
Even the pasted window grilles are very delicate, and I can't help but want people to take pictures.
Before I got the menu, I was actually a little nervous. The location of the scenic spot is so good, the price must not be cheap. I was relieved to see the menu. Apart from the paper menu, the menu here is also smart enough. It is the first time I have seen it in a scenic spot to order food on a tablet computer.
The per capita price is about 38 yuan, which is affordable for ordinary people. The portion is very large and the taste is super good.
Pingyao's famous "Four Buckle Bowl" is a dish that every household cooks during Chinese New Year.
These are the two methods of 栲栳栳, dry stir-frying and pouring sauce. The dry stir-fry needs to be fried first, and then stir-fried. With the embellishment of coriander, white sesame and pepper, this dry stir-fried 栲栳栳 is completely sublimated.
The sauce is also delicious, soft, and topped with a marinade with beef cubes, it is very fragrant and fragrant. Our principle is to come up and eat meat first. Look at the photos taken, the meat is pitifully small, and it looks like it was picked by us.
Sliced beef noodles, this soup is delicious, sprinkled with my favorite coriander, and beef, it is the best beef noodles I have ever eaten.
Dry fragrant stewed noodles, Hongwuji's signature, unlike beef noodle soup, which looks like soup and water, this one is relatively dry, it is braised and cooked, with beans and tomatoes, it retains the wheat flavor of the noodles and the original nature of the dishes. Authentic.
Stir-fried Qinzhou yellow with shredded potatoes, um... a novel way of shredded potatoes, this is the first time I have seen it. The original ordinary potato shreds and Shanxi's characteristic Qinzhou yellow millet have a wonderful collision and are delicious.
The tender pork knuckle is a surprising dish. The pork knuckle is not greasy at all, and even the soybeans in it are very tasty.
Jiawu eggplant is a bit sweet, with a crispy layer on the outside and full of the sweetness of eggplant inside.
Eggs with balsamic vinegar, this is also a high-quality recipe for ordinary ingredients. When frying, add Shanxi old mature vinegar, praise.
Noodles with sauce, one of Pingyao's special pasta, spicy, belongs to cold dish, served with shredded cucumber, very refreshing.
Tomato beef brisket, the beef is stewed badly and tastes good, even the potatoes inside are soaked in the taste of tomatoes.
I forgot what the name of this is. After the beans are fried, the fried chili is added, the essence.
Crispy Chicken.
Bull Demon King.
Qinzhou yellow rice cold cake, the smallest and freshest one, is in Hongwuji. It is not greasy at all when dipped in the special sweet-scented osmanthus sauce.
Blueberry long yam, in our eyes, is the most beautiful dish in Hongwuji. With the same sweet taste, the softness and hardness of blueberries are well mastered.

Pingyao's "Treasure House of Specialty Products" - Du Quanyong
Du Quanyong: Five-star recommendation
Address: No. 116, North Street, Pingyao Ancient City.
Many years ago, the shop owner went abroad to operate and develop in different fields. He learned a lot of business experience, got his first pot of gold, and formed his own set of business philosophy and model. With nostalgia for his hometown and the influence of Shanxi merchant culture, he is determined to create a unique brand of his own in Pingyao.
A store that you can see just after entering the north gate, the signboard is very conspicuous.
The name is very creative, small and fresh.
It was a small store in the beginning. The development to the current scale seems to be a change in the blink of an eye. Honest management and good reputation can make this specialty store come to this day. After contacting the store, I feel that the reason why this place lasts for a long time is Genuine features also have a customer-oriented service concept.
Perhaps only in Pingyao, a place with rich Shanxi merchant culture, where native people are influenced by it, will they continue to learn the essence of Shanxi merchant culture, continue to carry forward and pass it on.
Strongly recommend his family's loose-cut beef, which feels fresh and fragrant on the lips and teeth.
At Du Quanyong Specialty Store, the truth we have concluded is: "Fresh is always better than bagged."
