12 small shops on the streets of Wuxi that are full of human touch and all have traditional flavors

I believe many people have one or two private little restaurants in their minds, right? These small shops may not have luxurious facades and few people have reviewed them online, but it is precisely these small shops that always have a few classic signature dishes that make people linger on the memory! Looking back at 2024, we discovered 12 small shops full of human touch in Wuxi! Some of these shops are even older than I am! The taste buds passed down from generation to generation - 🍃Tianmei snacks: Heart-warming porridge with fried wontons has a Jiangnan flavor! All the cold cuts are refreshing and delicious, and taste like home! Very cost-effective! Open till midnight - 🍃Yangping midnight snack: mainly cold dishes! Very few types of hot stir-fry dishes! Basically, we cook whatever is available that day! The original oatmeal porridge is the taste of childhood - 🍃Fuxin Bathroom: A fly restaurant without a name! Garlic shrimp 🍤 is so delicious! The overall taste will be sweeter! Very generous portion - 🍃Jinfen Wonton: Freshly made wontons! Knife fish wontons are especially popular in spring! I personally think dry wontons are tastier than soup wontons. - 🍃Friends Wonton: Vegetable rice is their specialty! All dishes are served on the table in small portions! Homemade toppings! Sweet taste in Wuxi - 🍃Ming Jiang Pot Stickers: Hot and sour casserole soup is really suitable for autumn and winter! The pot stickers 🥟 are not too juicy but very chewy! The fried pork cutlet was average - 🍃Zhuqin Snack Wonton: The human touch in the vegetable market🔥There are many kinds of wontons and they are all freshly made! The fillings are very filling and mainly seasonal vegetables - 🍃Maohua Food: Magnolia Cake is their signature dish! Wuxi's specialty snack shop! Still maintaining high popularity after more than 20 years! Don’t eat too much pan-fried buns - 🍃Ruyi Restaurant: Home-cooked meals full of human touch! Some dishes feel overly seasoned! But I quite like their chicken soup! A wide variety of dishes - 🍃Cai A Shui Mutton Shop: A great mutton shop for winter! But lamb chops are sometimes made in advance and then reheated! Poor taste! The amount of mutton soup is good. - 🍃Sichuan cuisine tofu rice: a fly restaurant in a residential building! The tofu pudding is very special! tasty! All dishes are stir-fried and go well with rice! Not pre-prepared food - 🍃Hongxiu Restaurant: The taste is more like Wuxi but not too sweet! Great value for money! The salt and pepper spareribs are really amazing! If you don't want to queue, you can go early to eat.
