Foreigner or Chinese, it seems that nobody can resist the temptation of Chongqing food.

"The food is awesome1. We had really a food sightseeing, hotpot and xiaomian and everything, we love Chongqing food. It's different from Europe."

"We usually go to have some delicious food, Ciqikou, Daxuecheng, Nansha, eating hotpot and chongqing noodle."

The spicy2 hotpot, or Huoguo in Chinese, is widely seen as the signature food that represents Chongqing's food culture.

Boiled in a spicy broth3 in a simmering pot, ingredients are placed into the pot and are cooked at the table. Typical hot pot dishes include thinly sliced meat, leafy vegetables, mushrooms, tofus and seafood4. The cooked food is usually eaten with a dipping sauce.

In Chongqing, the soup in the pot is always mixed with hot pepper oil and local spices to give a pungent5, dense6 and heavy flavor.

The popularity of Chongqing hotpot can be seen from these numbers -- there are currently over 26 thousand hot pot restaurants in the city, providing job opportunities for more than 500,000 people.

Hu Ning is a waitress at a hotpot restaurant in one of the city's most prosperous commercial zones.

"Chongqing has very good hotpot, which you can find nowhere else. The hot pot in Chongqing is the most authentic7 with the best taste. I can't really explain the flavor, it's just spicy, mixed with heavy flavors. It's a normal thing for us Chongqing people to eat spicy food. We can't live without the chili8. For example, we like to eat noodles with chili pepper in the morning. But to many people, breakfast should be light and mild. "

But there are other delicious cuisines9 in Chongqing as well, and not all of them are spicy.

As you walk through the crowded alleys10 at the ancient river town of Ciqikou, you will be amazed by the variety the street food available here.

Once a prominent market and trade town for porcelain11 products in the Ming Dynasty by the Jialing River, Ciqikou has now been transformed into a tourism destination for shopping and dining.

Restaurants, food stalls and snack shops are scattered12 across the town, offering delicacies13 ranging from sweet sticky rice cakes, fried Chinese donuts, as well as flavored beef jerky, which are all specialties14 you find only in Chongqing.

"The sticky rice cake we sell here is a traditional food in Chongqing. It is hand made by striking the rice dough15 with a stick. Actually it's a common snack food in southwestern region, but the method of making it is different. The rice cake in Chengdu contains more water, but ours is more chewy."

Some shops always have long queues outside them. Chen Mahua is one of them.

Mahua, or fried dough twist, has been a traditional snack for Han Chinese for thousands of years. It is usually considered a specialty16 in the northern city of Tianjin. But here in Chongqing, Mahua has found another home.

"Tianjin mahua is big in size. But Chongqing mahua is small and crispy. It's quite different. Tianjin's is not as crispy as ours, the texture17 is soft and it's like bread."

Many say Chongqing food embodies18 the characteristics of its people -- bold, straightforward19 and enthusiastic, just like the hot chilies20.

So next time when you get an opportunity to visit Chongqing, never forget to try the food, and you'll soon make friends with the people.
