Back in Yangshuo for lunch. Everywhere in Yangshuo, you would see restaurants advertising for Beer Fish (or beer flavored fish 啤酒鱼), and it seems that this is the only dish served in this town. While the internet and guidebook list many well known stalls, our inn keepers recommend a less touristy place, next to the Lao You Tiao (老油条) noodle stall along Fu Rong Road. We chose Sword Bone Fish (剑骨鱼) for the dish, as the waitress said it had better taste and lesser bones. The dish turned out well, and together with a bowl of vegetable soup and a beer, the meal cost us around Y175.
It was free entry into Yangshuo Park and frankly, there was nothing much to see. There were older folks playing cards, ladies doing mass dancing, bad karaoke singing blasted aloud, Caucasians taking tai-chi classes and a small mountain to climb. There was a commemorative statue on war heroes.
Another common site in West Street was the proliferation of mango-related stores. I was told few years back, it was corn juice, but now mango has taken over.....
Every few steps, you would see a shop selling it, even from the same
franchise.
For the remaining part of the afternoon, I
rode around the area near the Durian Space Inn surrounding. Not the
best sceneary, but at least I did some cycling while in Yangshuo.
It was sea snails and beer duck at Lucy's Place. A good restaurant at West Street (5 Guihua Road 桂花路).
