Hangzhou – Hefang Street/West Lake/Grandma’s Home

This article was translated from Chinese by AI.

This route is one I take almost every time I visit Hangzhou. From Hefang Street, to Nanshan Road, to Hubin Road. Actually, visiting Hefang Street twice is enough; there isn’t anything particularly interesting inside. It mainly sells handicrafts, but honestly, the handicrafts at tourist spots across the country are pretty much all the same~~~~~

Haunted House and Prank Shop, 10 yuan admission, supposedly not worth it at all~~~~

We had dinner at Grandma’s Home on Hubin Road. I really don’t understand why this restaurant is so popular.
Grandma’s Braised Pork was incredibly greasy; it looked like a giant piece of Dongpo pork, served with salted dried fish~~~ soaked in oil. The lean parts were tasteless and tough to chew, while the fatty parts were extremely greasy… Oh my god…

Chicken wings coated in salted egg yolk on the outside, but the chicken inside had absolutely no flavor, and the yolk coating was excessively oily… Speechless again.

Stir-fried medley: water chestnuts, celery, wood ear mushrooms, and ginkgo nuts stir-fried together. The taste was just passable…

Winter melon juice, the only decent item~~~~~

When we left, there was a huge line of people waiting outside, which made me even more speechless… Surely everyone isn’t here just for the winter melon juice, right?~~~

Continuing along Hubin Road, walking from Park No. 1 to Park No. 6, we saw several street performers~~~ They all sang better than the ones at the entrance of Super Brand Mall~~~~
Watched the sunset; it set so quickly~~~ In just one minute, the sun disappeared~~~~
