Reviews
This place is Xinxiang Lu located at the Nanshijiao Night Market in Zhonghe. It specializes in herbal stews and has a seating area for dining in. The cleanliness of the establishment is quite good, and the staff are really friendly. After ordering, I waited about 15 minutes; although it wasn't particularly fast, the quality of the dishes served was stable.
The flavor of the stewed sauce is quite unique. It’s not the usual overly salty taste but rather has a mild sweetness combined with herbal notes. It’s not greasy and doesn’t leave you feeling thirsty. Overall, the seasoning is just right, and there's no need to add any extra sauces.
This time I ordered:
- Large soybean skin $25
- Radish $25
- Onion $25
- Pork skin $30
- Beef slices $50
- Duck blood $45
- Mushroom $25
- Cauliflower $30
- Baby bok choy $30
In total, I had 10 items for $285. The bowl of duck blood was well-marinated, with pickled vegetables on top to enhance the flavor, slightly spicy with a fragrant touch. The other bowl of dry stew had a lot of ingredients, including pork skin, onion, mushroom, cauliflower, and beef slices; it wasn’t too greasy, and the vegetables still had some crunch.
Overall, it’s a place that would make you want to visit again for herbal stews. Clean, honest, and tasty, it’s already flavorful enough without needing to add anything extra. I highly recommend dining in on the spot to enjoy the meal while it's still warm.
The first time trying it, the place I originally wanted to go to wasn’t open, so I took a detour and passed by here. It looked pretty crowded, so I thought I’d give it a try.
🔹 The rice noodles are different from what I expected; the ones I've eaten before had less sauce. This one is a bit like soup, with a moderate flavor that isn’t too salty!
🔸 The other ingredients are all in the same bowl. The beef slices aren't tough, and the intestine is well-prepared without a fishy smell, but the braised flavor could be stronger. For the hot pot ingredients, you can choose three for 20 yuan each, which is nice! However, the sauce is too salty. It looked like besides the sauce, there was also a ring of something like soy sauce paste on top. My friend ordered a milder flavor, and I thought that was just right!
🔅 The total bill came to 228 yuan, which is quite hearty for one person. I felt satisfied after eating, but I wouldn’t specifically come back again. It could be considered when I pass by without other options!
