Why is Luxi River from Nanjing so popular? Is it an old favorite?

Youpin is a real foodie, no matter which place to travel, the first thing to consider when doing the strategy is the local specialties, and only then will involve the attractions near the food store.

Nanjing, in all of the travel products have been to the tourist city, is the most impressive, in addition to the history and culture of the city of Jinling, those specialties of Nanjing food, also y imprinted in my mind.

Nanjing Luxi River, locally famous old, selling traditional Jinling pastries. Because of its popularity, you often need to queue up when you buy them, and you have to wait about 2 hours before you can buy them.

And when it was my turn, the shopkeeper told me that the puffs were already sold out, and the cream cheese custard hadn't started yet, so I had to buy some other pastries.

The Original Peach Crisp was so big that I felt a bit full after eating one, and when I bit into it gently, it crumbled and there would be a lot of crumbs, it was really crunchy.

Peach crisp to the mouth, is the more you chew the more fragrant, melt in the mouth, the flavor is really addictive, eat one and want another.

The shelf life of a bag of peach crisp is 30 days, if you can't finish it at one time, make sure you seal it well, otherwise it won't be crispy the next time you take it out to eat.

Additionally, there is a walnut crisp, more expensive than the original peach crisp, however, there is no difference in flavor, but instead of the original peach crisp black sesame seeds are more, we can avoid the mine.

Durian pastry, also a crispy type of pastry, the durian flavor is super strong and filling, if you are also a durian lover, you must try.

From the outside, the durian pastry is also shiny and oily, which makes it feel especially appetizing. The pastry is particularly multi-layered and tastes great. The durian filling is sweet and soft, with just the right amount of sweetness, and not at all greasy. Plus the black sesame seeds embellishment, a bite down, the flavor is overflowing.

The durian flavor of this durian pastry is strong, but it is very mild, not very thick and punchy, the durian is not a cold partner can also try, may also be able to open the door to a new world yo!

The cinnamon walnut cake is also full of ingredients, which adds a lot of walnuts and cinnamon, and tastes like a honey cupcake, but with the aroma of walnuts and cinnamon, which is very unique.

The mung bean king, which tasted a little too sweet for a swim-up, had a nice egg yolk in it that was very delicate.

The spuds had a medium flavor, and were particularly chewy, and when I bought them home and re-baked them in the oven, they didn't taste much different, and they were crunchy and silky.

But the overall outer skin is still a little too dry, not very recommended to do this, or eat it on site as well.

The mung bean sorbet was first chilled in the refrigerator, and then taken out to eat will be more refreshing, the texture of the sorbet is very dense, there is no old-fashioned mung bean cake kind of pungent feeling in the throat, in the mouth quickly melted away, cool, and mung bean flavor.

The honey cake has a very strong honey flavor, and the cake is very fluffy, similar to the Nagasaki cake that Yupin ate in Japan before, very sweet and highly recommended.

Grandparents, even if they have bad teeth, it's easy to eat, but with tea, after all, the cake is still a little dry after eating too much.

Besides Nanjing's Luxihe pastries are good, Chengdu's Palace Pastry Shop is also worth a try.
