The Master of Lijiang(Restaurant)

The food was delicious, the portions were generous, and the restaurant had a nice ambiance—highly recommended! The hand-grabbed rice was especially noteworthy. I highly recommend the hand-grabbed rice at Dianxi Prince in Lijiang Old Town; I could finish it even without sauce, and it was just the right amount for two people. The staff were very welcoming and offered us complimentary samples of rose wine, tamarind juice, and other drinks. I'll definitely come back again!

Food: I tried hand-grabbed rice for the first time, a unique Yunnan flavor, very distinctive. The waitresses were very welcoming and even let us sample local butter tea. Service: We were lucky to catch a song and dance performance, very characteristic of Yunnan. We also sampled the restaurant's homemade fruit wine and special beef sauce. It's very close to my guesthouse, making dining super convenient.

The Yunnan wild mushroom steamed chicken, Yunnan-Myanmar specialty Paoluda, Yunnan fire ladle beef, Tibetan butter tea, and cured pork ribs were all delicious. The service staff were incredibly welcoming and even reminded us to buy the group-buying deals, which were also excellent. The butter tea was wonderful, as it was homemade. There were also beautiful ethnic dances to watch – fantastic!

This restaurant is near the hotel where we stayed. It is quite popular. We had our last meal in Lijiang here! After visiting Mufu in the morning, we ate a bait block and then came to the restaurant for dinner. We only ordered two dishes. The black-bone chicken is sour and spicy, and the side dishes are bamboo shoots and onions. The onion tastes a bit like sour radish. I couldn’t taste it at first, haha. The copper pot snow mountain fish is tender and smooth, sour and spicy, and goes well with rice. The waiter also brought us butter tea. It was the first time I drank butter tea. At first, I thought I would not be able to adapt to it. After taking a sip, I found that it was really delicious. I will order it myself in the future. The environment is great and the service is also great.

Lijiang is a solemn and old ancient city. In the ancient city under the moonlight, a glance back is like a dream back to Lijiang thousands of years ago. The love story of the prince of western Yunnan is vivid in my mind, leaving behind so much love. The Prince of Western Yunnan - Dreaming back to Lijiang, inheriting the taste of a hundred years, is such a restaurant, pursuing not only the deliciousness of Lijiang, but also the long-standing legend of this ancient city.   The bamboo shoot chicken of the Haang and Deang ethnic groups is a national specialty, a famous bamboo shoot chicken, the bamboo shoot fragrance penetrates into the sweet chicken fiber, rich taste, juicy and flavorful.   The Yi ethnic group braised black goat, the local black goat raised in the wild, the meat is firm and firm, without a trace of excess fat, removing the smell of sheep, full of chewiness, the more you eat, the more delicious it is!   Antique dining atmosphere, open space, spacious tables and chairs. Every diner seemed to be amazed by the wonderful prince culture of western Yunnan. It was quiet and not noisy, and they savored every bite with their heart.

[Environment] After a long detour through the ancient city, I finally found it. I lined up for a while at the entrance of the internet celebrity store, but the tables were turned over quickly and I was able to get in after a while. "Toast copper pot snow mountain fish" The sour taste is very refreshing, the fish is very tender, and you can also drink the soup. "Wild mushrooms by Lugu Lake" My favorite dish, very chewy wild mushrooms, the mushrooms are very fresh "Braised beef tenderloin wrapped in banana leaves" Because my family doesn't eat spicy food, they specially changed it for us to be non-spicy. The beef has a very tender texture, and the elderly can also eat it "Rose brown sugar meatballs" This is a must-order for every table. The filling in each ball is different, soft and not very sweet. For people who love sweets, it is not to be missed [Service] The service attitude is very good, the service awareness is very strong, and peach blossom wine is also given. This is the most delicious restaurant I have come to Lijiang.

The crispy black tofu is an absolute must-try!!! It's so delicious! The soybean flavor is incredibly rich, and the outside is crispy and fragrant from frying, yet not greasy. The crispy crust soaks up the sauce, and when you bite into it, the inside is a tender, soft, bursting tofu pudding. The tofu is made using a unique fermentation method from Jianshui, Yunnan, paired with healthier and more flavorful black beans—it's truly special! The waitresses were also incredibly gentle and attentive, constantly checking on our dining experience. Thumbs up! 👍

🍜Taste: The taste was great. They asked about our preference after we ordered; mild spicy was just right for us. 💰Value for money: Very good value for money, the price was reasonable. 👍💁Service: The service was excellent and attentive; they kept bringing us different drinks—four or five in total. 🥂Environment: The dining environment was very nice and clean, with a classic, antique style that was perfect for taking photos.
