Because good taste is the last word!
Every time I watch Xiamen's food strategy online, I will make more or less mistakes. Many restaurants are famous for their outstanding appearance and fancy names. After I tasted it myself, I found that there was not much really delicious. Recently, I visited some old shops that I liked when I was a child. They have a history of at least 10 years, and some of them have a history of nearly a hundred years since their establishment. The brand can continue to operate for so long, of course, because the products are excellent enough for fans who have crossed generations to flock.
Wuzaitian snack bar
Must order local snacks: Satay noodles &; Shrimp noodles and minced meat jiaozi. Taro bread
Per capita consumption: 20 yuan
Address: No.25-6 Hu Mei Road
In my childhood memory, when my family and friends mentioned where there were snacks in Xiamen, Wu must be my first thought. At that time, the shop was near Zhongshan Road. After shopping, I went into the alley and ate a bowl of hot and delicious shrimp noodles/flat soup/jiaozi with minced meat. It feels great! The fireworks in Wu snack bar are particularly strong. When there are not many tourists, they are full. I often have to queue up after buying a meal ticket, and the business is very hot! Good taste can stand the test of time, and now Wu is still the benchmark of Xiamen classic snacks. Although the service attitude needs to be improved, the snacks are really authentic, just rest assured to eat!
Bashi spring rolls
Must-have local snacks: pancakes with ingredients.
Per capita consumption: 20 yuan
Address: No.25-5 Hu Mei Road
I have eaten spring rolls and burritos all over the country, and my favorite is "spring rolls" (also called pancakes) in Xiamen. Pancakes are different from those fried spring rolls sold in supermarkets. They taste good mainly because there are enough fresh ingredients. Pancakes in every place in southern Fujian are slightly different. In addition to cabbage, lean meat and tofu, traditional pancakes in Xiamen will also add oysters and shrimps, which tastes better! This Bashi Spring Roll has been focusing on pancake making for many years. In addition to traditional flavor, there are many innovative attempts. Pancakes have a lot of thin stuffing, take a bite, and the lips and teeth are fragrant, fresh and sweet ~
Dried lentils
Must order local snacks: soybean milk &; dried bean curd
Per capita consumption: 10 yuan
Address: No.64 Xi 'an Road
193 1 has been passed down for five generations. When I go to Baijia Village, I can't forget to buy a bottle of traditional sweet soybean milk from 3.5 yuan and drink it warmly. Originally, the forest side only made bean products, but now there are many branches (basically opened near the vegetable market) and also sell some local traditional snacks. The taste may not be particularly good, but the variety is indeed complete. With the gradual convergence of the vegetable market, vendors are trying to keep some intangible cultural heritage.
Li You salted duck shop
Must-order local snacks: salted duck
Per capita consumption: 36 yuan
Address: No.26 Xintian Road (Baijiacun Garden Store)
A Shanghai boss said that he drove to Xiamen for more than 7 hours, and his first stop was to buy salted duck in Li You of Baijia Village, which shows how delicious it is! Personally, I think duck meat and internal organs are not the most important. Their sauce is really incomparable, spicy and refreshing! Because duck meat will smell more or less fishy, but after dipping in Li You's exclusive sauce, it not only has no fishy smell, but also adds a refreshing and wonderful taste. You don't know how good it is until you taste it! And it's cheap, half the weight is enough!
Miaoxiang Bian Shi
Must order local snacks: plain food &; Soy sauce noodles
Per capita consumption: 10 yuan
Address: near Hou Bin Road 10 16.
Miao township is almost a household name in Xiamen, similar to the well-known "Shaxian snack". She can be found in the densely populated communities of this city. Not only is there food all day, but people in the shop are eating flat food and noodles. The demand of guests is increasing, and their home provides more choices. jiaozi with minced meat and steamed stuffed buns taste good! Because of its excellent taste and low price, it squeezed out many competitors along the way. If you don't know what to eat, Miaoxiang is a good choice, which is more stable than Shaxian snacks!
Wang Ji pie
Must order local snacks: Pie&; mince pie
Per capita consumption: 15 yuan
Address: No.9 to 1 Qing Yu Road (opposite Baijiacun Road)
The locals really love Wang Ji, and this "Gulangyu specialty" that has been passed down for many years has also become a good gift from Xiamen people to relatives and friends! It is really delicious! Although brand pies are more and more beautifully packaged, with more and more flavors, and with cute literary gimmicks such as X and X, there are very few mung bean pies that really follow the tradition and don't pay much attention to freshness. I remember when I was a child, every time I went back to Wang Ji to buy pies, I had to ask the date of production first. If it wasn't made on the same day, I wouldn't want it, because the taste was really different ~ I also tasted the pie just baked in Gulangyu, and the freshness was really great! It is worth taking some time to wait!
Many people ask me
How to eat in Xiamen without stepping on thunder?
My answer must be to go to a real time-honored brand.
Only if it is classic enough can it be circulated for a long time.
