Laotai Stinky Bean Curd – There used to be an old lady in Dashikou who used to set up a stall at the back of the commercial street every day to sell fried stinky bean curd. The Zhenjiang people loved it so much, so they gave her a signboard named Laotai Stinky Bean Curd.
Dingji Yijue – This fried skewers stall will remind you of the fried skewers stall in front of your school when you were a child. Every day at 3:30 p.m., a large crowd will gather in front of the stall located in the small alley of the residential house, which can be called a Zhenjiang “time-honoured brand.”
