Jiang Wanchun Shuijiao (Anqing Flagship)
江万春水饺(安庆总店)
Flagship of Anqing's century-old Jiang Mao Shuijiao brand, which despite its name serves chicken-broth wontons, with a century-old shop sign over the entrance.
The name Jiang Mao Shuijiao comes from the nickname of founder Jiang Qingfu, and the Jiang Wanchun shop name dates back to the early Republican period. The so-called shuijiao are actually thin-skinned, flavorful small wontons in chicken broth, and shrimp filling is also available. The shop also sells pot stickers, crab roe soup buns, shaomai and fermented rice dumplings with sweet wine. The flagship is on Jianshe Road in Gaojingtou, near Tianhou Temple. It is a fast-food-style simple meal with no reservations needed, averaging about 16 yuan per person. Recent reviews are mixed, and some longtime diners feel it is not as good as before. Daopashi Pedestrian Street and the riverside are within walking distance, and the Wuyue Street bus stop is about 400 meters away.
