Lunch @ Hangzhou

Before we took the train back to Shanghai, we had our lunch in Hangzhou. I decided to try the restaurant somewhere near behind our hotel as the night before when we were out exploring the city we saw many people lining up for dinner. We thought it must be a good place to try as the locals are flocking to this place.

And so, here we are arriving the place a little early as we need to catch the 2:45pm train back to Shanghai.

We ordered this, lotus roots stuff with sweetend glutinuos rice as a starter. I don't quite like this commbination as the glutious rice is very sweet and the lotus roots is cold.

And here's our main order to go with plain rice. Their specialty claypot toufoo.

Crispy chicken with salted egg yolk
Beggar's chicken
We also ordered a pot of soup which I forgot to took a picture of it.

Overall the lunch is quite satisfying minus Zach's crankiness. I guess he was tired and miss his morning nap so he was at the verge of tearing the whole place down. We had to keep distracting him with Gerber stars and also the waitress do try to entertain him once in a while.

I forgot how much we had paid for this lunch but I believe it was not expensive considering the portion and quality of the food. I would rate it as 3.5 star out of 5.
