The Morning Tea
It is worth being an early riser for a tasty morning tea. Although the morning tea in the Yangtai Area serves until after 9 o’clock every morning, nothing is more pleasant than the warmth it brings around 6 to 7 am. When visitors start their day with delicacies such as sliced tofu, steam dumplings, baozi (steamed bun with stuffing), and noodles, it is the best time to exchange pleasantries with friends and strangers in relaxation and the steaming warmth. After enjoying a great feast of all kinds of delicious food, visitors can then start the adventure for the day.
The Lamb Broth
A bowl of lamb broth surely adds up to the pleasure in winter. Among the big and small lamb broth shops all over Taizhou, including Fuxiang, Xiaolao’er, Huashengmi Feima, Liuji, Xiaoji, and Yingxing, none of them will let people down. While the popular Dalun Lamb is well-known for the juicy, tender, and nourishing mutton, the Diaopu Lamb is delicious either as a cold platter, braised or stewed. Besides, dozens of dishes are developed from the “whole-lamb meal” in Taozhuang, Xinghua.
A Bath in the Hot Spring
What can be more pleasant than soaking in the hot spring on a cold winter day? Located in the China Town on the bank of Qin Lake in Taizhou, the Yunhai Hot Spring Resort is known for its excellent water quality, suitable temperature for baths, and the rare “ternary hot spring” rich in metasilicic acid, strontium, and lithium. The resort is divided into indoor and outdoor areas. With 50 characteristic hot spring pools scattered among flowers, plants, and trees, visitors can appreciate the lake view or meditate under the starlit sky soaking in the hot spring. In the Kisses of the Fish pool, they can enjoy the service of little fish swimming around, giving a refreshing feeling with their tickling little kisses. Surrounded by red roses, white chrysanthemums, and golden osmanthus, happiness and romance will suffuse in a hot spring bath.
