Ye'er Ba

Ye'er Ba, also known as Ai Mo, was originally a traditional snack for people in the western part of Sichuan, which is often served during the Qingming Festival (Tomb-Sweeping Day). In 1940, the Tianzhai Snack Bar in Xindu District, Chengdu, improved Ai Mo elaborately and renamed it as Ye?er Ba. With fine color, unique shape and refreshing flavor, Ye?er Ba is listed among top Sichuan snacks. It is named as Ye?er Ba because it is a steamed glutinous rice cake filled with stuffings wrapped in leaves. The leaves used for it are normally tangerine leaves, plantain leaves, bamboo leaves and lotus leaves.

Zhong's Dumplings

Zhong's Dumplings are the representative Sichuan dumplings. They are named after the inventor Zhong Shaobai. The main difference between Zhong's Dumplings and dumplings in other parts of north China is that the stuffing in Zhong's Dumplings is purely pork without any vegetables. When being served on table, it is dressed with red chili oil, making the dumplings slightly sweet, salty and spicy.
