Is Chongqing stone fish a feature of Chongqing?
Stone fish is not a specialty of Chongqing.

"Stone Fish", also known as "Jin Fu Fish", is a famous dish in Hunan cuisine. Its production method is very unique. It chisels a huge granite rock into a stone pot with ears, fries fish in the stone pot, and then adds various condiments, mainly peppers, and some nourishing herbs. During the reign of Kangxi in the early Qing Dynasty, there was a small shop near Xiangjiang River in Changsha, which was good at making a unique "stone fish". Emperor Kangxi tasted this dish in this small shop when he traveled incognito in Jiangnan. He thought it was delicious and pleasing to the eye, so he happily took up a pen and named it "Jin Fu Fish". From then on, "Stone Fish" became "Jin Fu Fish", and this small shop was named "Lin Jinfu".
