Jianshui tofu, famous in the country, people who come here always like to find a small shop and turn tofu around the stove. Pieces of tofu filled the belly, and I had to go to the West Gate to sip a mouthful of sweet water from the big plate well. Locals told me that "this tofu is very good, or the credit of water." Therefore, this large plate well at the west gate is always a point where tourists must punch. If the timing is coincidental, you can also see the locals wrapping tofu at the well, and the clumps of ground bean flour fly up and down in the gauze package, instantly turning into a round, chubby tofu, making people want to catch and roast it
