Mutton shops, Qibao
×Bai-qie Mutton (poached mutton)
Why you must eat itPoached mutton sliced thin and eaten with a dip — a Qibao specialty. No gaminess; you taste the layered fat and lean straight. Originally a winter warmer, in Qibao it is paired with yellow rice wine. Order a small plate and rest with a drink.
Qibao is also known for mutton, and the old street has shops doing bai-qie (poached) and red-braised mutton. Poached and sliced, it shows the quality of the meat directly. Locally there is a culture of pairing it with yellow wine (Qibao is a brewing town too). Mostly sit-down shops.
