Sliced Meat with Crispy Rice
Sliced meat with crispy rice is a major dish in Chongqing. The meat tastes soft and tender forming a contrast with the crispy rice. When sampling this dish, you can even hear the sizzling sound emerging from the rice.
Chongqing's city center is filled with restaurants and food stalls where you can pick up a cheap and filling meal for less than RMB10. Local specialties here include dumplings and pickled vegetables and, different from many other Chinese cuisines, Chongqing dishes are ideal for the solo diner- arriving in small individual sized portions!
This is where the HOTPOT originated and Chongqing residents are still very keen on their native dish, tucking in even when the sun is shining.
All the major hotels here, (including the Marriott and Holiday Inn) serve high quality western fareand other Chinese regional cuisine.
