In Dali, vegetarian food is a trend.
The long street banquet of Weishan Snack Festival, also called health banquet, is all vegetarian. Thousands of pieces are baked with wax gourd, and the main ingredient of fake chicken is gluten. In order to give diners the feeling of bones, it is filled with walnuts, that is, "chicken bones." According to Weishan people's own summary, making fake chicken is very beneficial to family harmony, because the whole production process is more troublesome. For example, making gluten is a physical activity, which requires the joint efforts of the owner and wife. The rest of the old people work and cook together with their children. Of course, there will be less second thoughts and more harmony.
The sweet and salty straw hat cake at the gate of Dali University is particularly delicious and the price is not expensive. If you are alone, more than ten yuan is enough to eat. There are always a few special days every year, and all the good things are free, but we don't tell our guests in advance. Only when we pay the bill after dinner will we say whose birthday it is, which makes people feel embarrassed. If we had known, we should have paid less. There is another Zhongshan Garden near Cangshan Hotel in Xiaguan, where vegetarian steamed buns and cold rice noodles are delicious.
There used to be a vegetarian restaurant named Futian Huayu in Xiaguan Jingang, and later it moved to the entrance of Cui Lei Garden in Dali ancient city. Vegetarian food is delicious. Avocado is opened directly and served on a plate. Blueberry sauce wrapped in yam strips is purple, red, jade and white, which is beautiful and delicious, but the overall price of vegetables is slightly expensive.
The chansons on Yu Ye Road in the ancient city of Dali was later opened, which was a piece of cake and exquisite in Japanese style. The boss is Lao Yan, from Fujian. He once opened an inn in Lijiang and Dali. He and his wife have always been vegetarians and advocate vegetarianism. Later, he gave birth to a second child, a little girl, a real "vegetarian baby". In 20 18, Wuxiangsong was newly opened, and in 20 19, "Light Lent Day" was held in Chaimiduo, which was called "shaking the world in a gentle way" and was welcomed by new and old Dali people.
In addition, fasting in Weibaoshan and Jizushan, as well as fasting in Cangshan temples such as Wuwei Temple and Baohe Temple, has always been a local tradition. Baohe Temple also grows its own vegetables, broad beans and green vegetables, which are extremely ecological and want to eat.
Vegetarianism in Dali is spreading silently. Healthy, environmentally friendly and ecological vegetarianism makes people more peaceful and indifferent. If you eat too much meat, you might as well come to Dali to be a vegetarian and feel good!
