背景故事
The name implies they are as numerous as flies (and perhaps as hygienic), but they represent the unpretentious culinary soul of the city where businessmen and stick-porters dine shoulder-to-shoulder.
当地秘密
"Visit Dongzikou Zhang Liangfen for an archaic experience. It operates on a 'blind-box' model: sit beside a narrow stream as waiters pedal tricycles loaded with unlabelled plates. You simply grab whatever looks appealing as the tricycle rolls past."
