What are the special snacks in Chengdu? How to eat them in Chengdu?

Chengdu is a warm and hospitable representative of Shu. The people of Chengdu are also as "hot" as Sichuan cuisine. Chengdu has countless delicacies. As one of the eight major cuisines, Sichuan cuisine is so popular that it can now be eaten all over the country. I tasted that in Chengdu, in the early years, small businessmen and hawkers carried their handbags on their shoulders and hawked their own tempting snacks on the streets of Sichuan. Today, these most authentic snack bars are still hidden in the small alleys of Chengdu. You have to get rid of the hustle and bustle of the city to find the lingering taste. Lao Ma’s Hoof Flowers

Lao Ma’s Hoof Flowers is a late-night canteen for Chengdu people. After you’ve had a good meal and drink, a bowl of hoof flowers will warm your stomach. Then you can go home and have a warm sleep. This is the most leisurely side of Chengdu people. It's all here.

The pig's trotters are shaped like flying flowers after being cooked in a pot. They taste soft and glutinous but not greasy. They are dipped in the secret spicy sauce and the plump pig's trotters are wrapped in peppers. It is so delicious. It is said that Lao Ma’s hoof flower shop was founded in the Republic of China. The crystal white hoof flowers support the collagen of Chengdu people.
