What else do Chongqing people eat for breakfast besides noodles and triangular poi?

1. Oil Tea

When you come to Chongqing, you must remember to eat oil tea, which dominates the breakfast table of Chongqing people!

What is oil tea? It is a kind of deep-fried noodle cake mixed with rice paste.

And why is it called oil tea? The word "oil" refers to the deep-fried noodle cakes, while the word "tea" refers to the sound of noodle cakes when they are stirred. The deep-fried noodle cakes are soft and fragrant, and the oil tea is good in taste; the rice flour paste is flavored with salt, monosodium glutamate, chili oil, green onion and cilantro, and the oil tea is good in taste.

Oil tea is delicious and inexpensive, but it is a pity that fewer people sell it in recent years, so it is not easy to find it for breakfast, which is the only drawback.

2. Glutinous Rice Dumplings

Glutinous rice dumplings, as the name implies, are glutinous rice dumplings wrapped with a doughnut inside and covered with a layer of soybean flour on the outside. The price of glutinous rice dumplings ranges from 3-6 yuan. The most famous glutinous rice dumplings in Chongqing are in the Chunsen Road neighborhood near Liangjiakou, where Chongqing locals also go to buy them. The taste is very palatable, but the queue takes an hour.
