Overview

Brother Biao's Grilled Dry Tofu Rolls in Jinzhou blend chili peppers, ham sausage, and enoki mushrooms, with soybean flavor. In Changchun, Boss Guo's Charcoal Grilled Potatoes are steamed, grilled, and smoked, with a secret soy sauce. In Yunnan's Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Li Bi's Grilled Wet Tofu is slowly grilled for crispy skin and tender, chewy interior. In Yichang, Sister Qiezi's Grilled Eggplant is seasoned with secret garlic paste and runny egg yolk. In Changsha, grilled garlic chives from a roadside stall are fresh and spicy yet fragrant. You may forget the barbecue stalls you ate at, and your city may change, but you'll remember the taste and the person who shared it with you.
