Laoguang people will never forget this time-honored brand.
-Chen Tianji Fish Skin
Chen Tianji was already famous in the early 1990s.
It has a history of more than forty years.
Until today.
Chen Tianji passed on to the third generation.
Chen Tianji's delicious fish skin was engraved in the heart of old Ren Guang.
Chen Tianji was founded by Chen Chengtian on 1979. The dish of refreshing fish skin is a pioneering work of Mr. Chen Chengtian. He found that Shunde people discarded a lot of fish skins when making shad balls and shad cakes. Unfortunately, Chen Chengtian had an idea. He collected the fish skin, scraped off the scales, picked out the top thin layer of fish skin, cooked it and put it in the refrigerator to eat.
Some friends say that Chen Tianji is remote and hard to find, but I think it is true that "the fragrance of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley". I'm not afraid of the food in the shop.
No matter from Exit D of changshou road Metro, it's not far to walk. Walking here, you can also feel the characteristics of traditional commercial streets in Guangzhou.
It's not easy to find Chen Tianji in freshman year. Located in the second stall of ShiWuSan Lane, Bao Hua Road (the alley directly opposite to Liu Fu Jewelry in Hong Kong), it is a snack bar located in the old house in Xiguan.
Go to the corner where Chen Tianji is, and you will see those striking flags and signs. In the past two years, in order to support the development of time-honored brands, the Liwan government has specially arranged tourist bus routes near major time-honored brands. Such a move has indeed brought many customers to the old brand.
Ten years ago, it was noon. At that time, there was a sea of people in front of the store, and you had to wait in line to buy a seat. I came as soon as I opened the door, but I didn't wait.
Walking into the store, the waist-high crock was filled with boat porridge, pork rolls were placed in the incubator, and the scalded fish skin was cold in the glass compartment. Diners sit on plastic stools and small tables, but this does not affect the elegance of their taste of Guangfu.
In the eyes of local people in Xiguan, "Chen Tianji" is the witness of historical development and the taste of old Guangzhou. Today, in the past 30 years, "Chen Tianji" has only made three kinds of snacks: traditional boat porridge, pork rolls with soy sauce, and fish skin with cold sauce.
Nowadays, many people come here for these three specialty dishes.
A box of cold fish skin in 28 yuan is shiny in color, smooth, tender and crisp. Peanuts, shallots, soy sauce and sesame sauce are all delicious, and the crispness and freshness of fish skin are better than those of old shops.
Everyone's favorite fish skin is only shad and shad, a thin piece of fish back, boiled and eaten, sprinkled with peanuts, sesame seeds and coriander, and homemade soy sauce. Usually I can finish a box by myself.
Chen Tianji may indeed be "mythical" by many people. In fact, Chen Tianji's products are just homely things and homely tastes. Even the People's Daily often praises her.
Because she can keep the taste of this "home" unchanged for 40 years, unchanged for 40 years and unchanged for three generations, and focus on three kinds of snacks, no matter how far she goes, as long as she finds Chen Tianji, she will find Xiguan's home.
Among them, the ancestral cold fish skin is the most popular among guests, and it can sell hundreds of boxes a day. Miss Li, a native of Guangzhou, specially brought her sister to "Chen Tianji" to eat fish skin. "I haven't been here for about ten years. When I was young, my sister came to eat fish skin on purpose. The taste is not very amazing. This is the taste of memories. "
The preservation method of fish skin is very simple. After scraping the scales, just pick out the skin on the surface of the fish, cook it, put it in the refrigerator, take it out at the right time, sprinkle with peanuts, chopped green onion and shredded ginger, and pour the secret sauce. You can eat it. It tastes delicious and crisp, and is famous far and wide.
Even now you can see the shadow of "fish skin" all over the street.
But the most authentic taste is the memory of Chen Tianji.
Because there will never be anything else to replace "Chen Tianqi".
That's why it's still.
Pork rolls with soy sauce and sesame seeds are smooth and simple but unforgettable.
Boat porridge belongs to Xiguan classic porridge. Made of fish skin, barbecued pork, shredded squid, floating skin, jellyfish, shredded eggs and fried dough sticks, it is smooth and slippery. It tastes thick and sweet.
Chen Tianji's fish skin has maintained the same level and taste for many years, insisting on manual methods. Fresh shad skin mixed with peanuts, ginger onions and soy sauce is very tasty and can't stop! !
Maintaining product quality for many years is far from innovation. I hope all the time-honored brands can keep the quality and the memory of our generations in the future.
