Make tea cakes from the Tang Dynasty in Chang'an - Eatwith

Host introduction Hello everyone, I am Chuchu, the host of Eatwith in Xi’an. I am a Chinese studies teacher and have been engaged in the cultural industry for many years. I have a tea-themed space in Xi’an. Over time, I came into contact with beautiful tea snacks such as Tang Guozi. Tang Guozi happens to be a kind of Chinese tea snack that originated in the Tang Dynasty. I think that travel is not just a journey of sightseeing, but a place where you can meet another kind of life. I invite you to join me to achieve a more in-depth and unknown journey.

Experience introduction Travel should not be just a journey of sightseeing, but also a journey through time to meet another kind of life. As the ancient capital of 13 dynasties, the most impressive thing about Xi’an is the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. Tangguozi originated in the Tang Dynasty and is a very delicate pastry, usually made with Chinese tea. The main raw material we use is white kidney beans, pure handmade ingredients, no additives and no preservatives, and the embellishment is also natural pigments extracted from plants, which is very healthy and the shape is also unique and amazing. Our tea chef will lead everyone to make such exquisite teas step by step in your hands. Everyone can make teas of different styles, taste them together with afternoon tea, or pack them up and take them away as hand companions to give to relatives and friends, which is meaningful.

Venue introduction The new Chinese style space is quiet in the bustling and private. The furniture is designed and built by the host team, with unique style and artistic conception.
