The dishes are good and worth a try. The service is also OK. There are 4 of us and the boss lady immediately used a small private room. The waiter who takes orders will not order too much for you, but will remind you that there are enough dishes and you can add more if you don't have enough.

After driving thousands of miles to Chongzuo, I was completely captivated by this hidden gem!

We ordered three dishes, and...each one was incredibly generous. We couldn't finish them all!!! 🌟Must-Order: 🍙Carbohydrate Fruit Powder Rice Packets This is the ultimate carb-loving delight! Super delicious! I finished three by myself 🤤 (would the boss be moved to tears if he saw this?) 🍲Homemade Tofu While it's not amazing, it's this simple, homely flavor that's soothing on a trip! Light and non-greasy, it's a breeze to eat. 🍖Passion Fruit Spare Ribs This is definitely a potential "dark cuisine" stock 🤣 First bite: Hmm, what's that strange taste? Second bite: Hmm... seems pretty good? Third bite: Alert! It's really delicious! My partner took one bite and immediately retreated, leaving me, a passion fruit lover, to finish the entire plate. 💡Dining Experience: · Authentic flavors, no disappointments · Generous portions, very reasonable · Excellent value · Perfect for travelers seeking a taste of local specialties 📌Tips: 1. Recommended for 3-4 people; two people will suffice. 2. The restaurant's ambiance is rather unpretentious, so those with a taste for it might be disappointed. 3. Don't miss out during the afternoon break. #ChongzuoFood #AuthenticShop #SpecialFood #TravelFood #GuangxiFood
