Datong is located in the northernmost part of Shanxi Province, between the Great Wall inside and outside, and is the second largest city in Shanxi. Datong is one of the first batch of 24 famous historical and cultural cities in the State Council, and one of the national 13 big cities approved by the State Council in 1984. It now governs four districts and seven counties, with a total area of10.4 million square kilometers and a total population of 2.82 million. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the province has exported a total of 65.438+0.3 billion tons of coal, and the transferred coal has spread all over 26 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions in China and exported to more than 20 countries and regions in Europe, Asia and the United States.

Datong has also created many profits and taxes for the country. According to statistics, the annual tax payment to the state and the province is about 2 1 100 million yuan, and the provincial finance alone exceeds 900 million yuan.

I am from Datong, and I love Datong's food very much. In elementary school, the "Liu Rabbit Head" in Headquarters Street was available for 20 yuan at a time (at that time, 8 yuan was 10, which is a bit expensive now). Needless to say, I like Daoxiao Noodles, as well as mutton offal and oat noodles, but I think our food in Datong lacks successful market packaging. This is where our heart aches! On all kinds of BBS, only Datong people boast, and outsiders know little about it. In fact, Datong is so delicious! It is better than some famous brands in China. How does Beijing Donglaishun taste? ! Compared with the old grandson's family, it's far from it! But he is a "century-old shop"! There are so many mid-range hotels in Datong that the consumption is not high. Eat well! ! Other big cities are either roadside stalls or high-end restaurants, and ordinary people simply can't eat real food! Alas! If only I could make a fist-cooked snack in Datong a day earlier ~ Daoxiao Noodles was always stuck with hygiene problems. Nowadays, Daoxiao Noodles in the East and Daoxiao Noodles in Chaihuo have made some contributions to making noodles into fast food, but the real ace Daoxiao Noodles-Dongguan No.7 Middle School is still the same ~ Come on! As a Datong person, I wholeheartedly support Datong cuisine! ! !

Datong food is really good. One reason is that local snacks can be said to be famous all over the country, and the addition of other provinces, especially southern cuisine, has prospered the food world of Datong. According to statistics, hotels in Datong are first-class in the whole country, both in quantity and quality. Now even people from Beijing and nearby cities are going to Datong for weddings. They said they could eat something famous in Datong. And the food in Datong is delicious, cheap and varied. I hope all my friends can come to Datong to taste our delicious food. Welcome friends to come ~
