Chongqing snacks

I met my adoptive aunt and uncle the next morning for brunch. Because of all the levels in the shopping mall-karaoke parlor-park-apartment complex, it took us a while to find each other. We finally did, though, in front of an H&M buried in a hillside.

We walked from the H&M down the hill to a food court whose stalls were famous for selling authentic Chongqing snacks.


Left: Grilled skewered wood ear mushroom, potatoes, quail eggs, broccoli, shiitake mushrooms, tofu skin, and something slimy made from beans. Right: Sour-and-spicy yam noodles.

Steamed pork dumplings.

Marinated dry tofu. The shop that sold this was actually more famous for its marinated duck heads.

Starch noodles in spicy sauce
