Nanjing Da Pai Dang ( De Ji Square )

[Mint] Environment: The decoration is quite unique. I like the antique style. I have been here several times. The most unique thing is the snacks. Afternoon tea is quite good. [Service bell] Service: The service attitude is also quite good. The speed of likes is very fast, and the speed of serving food is also quite fast. The snacks inside are all good.

Nanjing specialty dishes, good value for money, taste OK, and there will be new seasonal dishes. The environment design has a strong market flavor, and the waiters are dressed appropriately. There is also a live Suzhou Pingtan performance.

Come to Nanjing to check out Nanjing Dapaidang. As usual, you must order the Tianwang roast duck buns and roast duck. This time there is crab rice cake, but the rice cake is too dense and has relatively large pieces, and there is no taste in the rice cake.

It can be said that the one-hour wait at Nanjing Dapaidang is totally worth it. First of all, let me talk about the environment. There are small square tables and small round tables in the lobby. The small square table can only seat four people, while the small round table can seat six or seven people. It is very clean and bright, and the layout is unique. It feels like the Republic of China period and is very romantic. There is also free Suzhou Pingtan to enjoy at 6 o'clock in the evening. Secondly, the service. The dishes are served quickly. The waiters are quick and will change the pelvis in time. Finally, let's talk about the taste. My mother and I are very satisfied. We ate until our stomachs rolled away and we were very satisfied. I am very glad that we did not give up waiting. The gold medal lotus root, gold medal fried dumplings, Tianwang roast duck buns, lobster, osmanthus lagao, etc. are all delicious. If you don't know how to order, just look at the recommended dishes. The point is that they are all delicious. I think it is better than Quanjude Songhelou Louwailou... The point is to go early, otherwise it will be really crowded. We went to eat again the next day... We used WeChat to get a number in advance and tried the special dishes Huadiao drunken lobster. It is really different from those coquettish and slutty ones outside. There is a fresh and unworldly feeling that I can't forget...

Nanjing Dapaidang is always our first choice for out-of-town friends. Although many flavors are not the most vivid, they are always available immediately, very inclusive, and convenient to catch everything. Tianwang Roast Duck Bao is a must-order every time, but roast duck always has a duck smell. After all, it is made into fast food, and whether the skin is firm and not broken depends on luck. The ancient method of making sweet taro seedlings is very delicate and worth eating. The hand-rolled fish soup noodles are relatively hard, and fish soup noodles always have a flour texture, and the pepper taste is more than the soup. The chicken sauce wontons are full of meat and the chicken soup enhances the flavor. Pearl chrysanthemum leaf jade meatballs are often sold out and very refreshing. The layered meat of Jiangmi braised pork and the sweet rice taste of soy sauce are inclusive. Meiling porridge is also often out of stock. It means fruit milk paste, which girls love. Spicy duck blood is a relatively heavy taste among all the snacks, and the duck blood is very tender.

A must-do item for traveling to Nanjing is to stay at Xinjiekou and eat at Nanjing food stalls. This time, Ctrip booked a stay at Jinling Hotel, which is just across the street. It is very convenient. Because I came to Nanjing at the end of the Spring Festival, there were a lot of people. I remembered it at 4 o'clock and made an appointment online. As a result, I was number 300. In the end, I still had to queue for a long time at the scene and entered at 6 o'clock. However, the restaurant's number calling is actually still valid. Two tables are replaced by one table. It is recommended to take a number earlier in the future. It has become a law that a big reputation does not necessarily mean good food. The dishes feel much worse than when I came before. It may also be that the Spring Festival peak has just passed and the quality has declined due to insufficient staff. I ate all the special dishes, but I didn't find any dishes worth recommending. Instead, the lion's head tasted very loose and unpalatable, and the braised pork was all fat and too greasy. It was so hurt that I went to Zhenjiang one day to recover. I hope it will be better next time. In addition, it is suggested that the way of calling numbers can be improved. The number of A, B and C called can be displayed on the screen so that everyone can see it at a glance, and there is no need for everyone to crowd at the front desk, which is so troublesome.

This restaurant is incredibly popular. The lines are incredibly long in Shanghai, but even more so here. We started getting a number at 11 a.m., and the line started forming around 10 a.m. However, you can order via WeChat, which makes things much quicker. The atmosphere is similar, except this one is larger. As usual, I ordered roast duck buns, salted duck, and Meiling congee. I think the salted duck and congee in Nanjing are better than in Shanghai, especially the generous portions. The sesame balls are filled with black sesame seeds, but not too sweet. Isn't it fun to go out and enjoy the crowds?

Nanjing Da Pai Dong was founded in 1994. Over the past 20 years, it has consistently cultivated a "culinary paradise." The old houses and deep courtyards, the food stalls, are simple and elegant, reflecting a sense of fun. It's like the restaurants and teahouses of the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China. The welcoming waiters, the little girls from the neighborhood, and the skilled cooks are all courteous and respectful. Over a low charcoal stove, the wild herbs are fresh and authentic, showcasing the heritage of traditional craftsmanship. For business meetings, banquets, and gatherings with friends and family, guests enjoy local delicacies and local folk songs. Dishes and cups are emptied amidst laughter and conversation, a truly satisfying experience. It's truly the ultimate bliss in life. It's said that Da Pai Dong, a place that appeals to both the elite and the masses, and the authentic flavors of the people, is what makes it a Da Pai Dong.
