刘记串串(大堰老店)

Liu Ji Chuan Chuan (Dayan Old Store) is a long-established skewer hotpot restaurant in the Dayan area of Chongqing, beloved by locals for its authentic Chongqing spicy flavor and affordable prices. Located near No.94 Middle School, the shop may be modest in size but exudes a vibrant street-food atmosphere. Open daily from 5 PM to midnight, it’s a popular spot for dinner and late-night cravings. The broth is made with traditional beef tallow, rich and aromatic, paired with fresh daily ingredients such as beef tripe, duck intestines, and various skewers. Diners cook their own skewers in the bubbling pot, adding a fun interactive element. Signature dipping sauces (dry and oil-based) are available. With an average cost of around ¥42 per person, it offers great value. Though the setting is simple, the food is authentic and the service warm—a true taste of local Chongqing street food culture.
