Hey there, young foodies! 👋 Have you ever wondered what tasty treats people enjoy on the other side of the world? Let’s take a yummy journey to Leshan City in southwest China’s Sichuan Province, famous for its mouth-watering dishes! 😋

Qiaojiao Beef 🥣

First up is Qiaojiao beef, also known as “foot-lift beef”. This delicious soup is made by slow-cooking the internal organs of a bull. Don’t let that scare you off! It’s a local favorite and even part of Leshan’s intangible cultural heritage. Paired with spicy chili sauce, it’s so flavorful you’ll be reaching for an extra bowl of rice! 🍚

BoBo Chicken 🍢

Next, we have BoBo chicken. Imagine a big bowl filled with bamboo skewers stacked together. On each skewer, there’s tender chicken, crunchy veggies, and black fungus (a type of mushroom). These are soaked in a special spicy soup that gives a unique and tasty flavor. It’s like a spicy chicken lollipop! 😍

Linjiang Shredded Eel 🐟

Have you tried eel before? In Leshan, they serve Linjiang shredded eel. Fresh eels are cooked over high heat until they’re thick and shiny. Each bite is a burst of fiery spice and fresh eel taste. It’s both spicy and delicious! 🔥

Sweet Skin Duck 🦆

Lastly, let’s talk about Sweet Skin Duck. This Leshan specialty has a crispy glaze made from malt sugar over tender, marinated duck meat. The combination of sweet and savory, crispy and juicy, makes it a must-try! You’ll love the crackling sound with every bite. 🤤

If you ever visit Leshan City, be sure to try these amazing dishes! Until then, maybe you can find a local restaurant that serves Sichuan food and start your own tasty adventure! 🍽️
