Jiaxing must be mentioned in the cities where Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai can truly achieve the ultimate 24-hour special forces punch-in‼ ️Because there are really many snacks open all day.
Come to travel during holidays, take this food guide and collect it. It is more reliable than queuing up for popular online stores. They are all treasure stores that locals have personally tested to be delicious and inexpensive.
✅ Main meal
❶ Food Bureau Chinese Restaurant (Lujie Business Building Store)
Friends from other places will recommend this one! Authentic Jiaxing cuisine, deeply loved by locals, fresh ingredients, no need for pre-prepared dishes, good taste depends entirely on the skills of the master chef. There are often queues during peak hours, so it is recommended to make an appointment in advance.
❷ Zou Daxian (Jiaxing Yuehe Store)
Yuehe is a must-visit attraction in the city center ➕ a gathering place for food. It does not cheat tourists, and locals also love to come, so there are a lot of people on holidays. Several other old-fashioned local dishes are good, so you don’t have to stare at one to queue up.
❸Gaopeng Home Cooking
An old shop hidden in the alley, with queues almost every day, and many dishes with thick oil and red sauce, perfect with rice.
✅Snacks
❶Shaomai Wonton
①Chenbin Shaomai Shop / Wenqiao Xiaoyan Shaomai (Wenqiao Road Shop)
Two old Shaomai shops recognized by locals as delicious, with thin and juicy skin, only open until noon, if you don't have time, I recommend the following one.
②Zhenzhenxian Wonton Shop (Qimeng Road Shop)
Too many big Vs have checked in, and you have to wait for a seat during peak hours. Bamboo shoots and fresh meat, salted egg yolk must be ordered, and bean paste Shaomai is not available in other shops, worth a try.
③Dundunxiang Wonton
Special dry mixed large wonton
PS: There are Shaomai shops in every street and alley in Jiaxing, and the taste is almost the same. It is not worth queuing up at the popular online shops. Many small shops opened on the edge of residential areas are cheap and delicious.
❷ Dumpling noodle shop
① Aer Dumpling Shop
A breakfast shop with a long queue every day. Fried dumplings can only be eaten before 9 o'clock.
② Hongji Lion Head Noodle Shop
The braised lion head is super large, with more lean meat and not greasy. It is only open until noon.
❸ Zongzi
① Zhenzhen Lao Lao
There are many branches and flavors. You can buy it everywhere. There are also dine-in restaurants.
② Meihuazhai
The price is affordable.
❹ Fresh meat mooncakes
Amao Cake Shop (Sanshuiwan Dongta Road Store)
It is very fragrant and not greasy when it is just out of the oven. It will be greatly discounted when it is cold. It is recommended to heat it before eating.
❺ Begonia Cake
Wangyuezhai (Yuehe Store)
I will buy it every time I visit Yuehe. It has a caramel crispy shell on the surface and delicate bean paste inside.
❻ Jiaxing Yuexiu Market
The happy hometown of college students, a collection of snacks from all over the country, and super cheap fruits.
Recommended: roasted pig's trotters, taro cakes, corn juice, starch sausage, roasted cold noodles
✅Cold drinks
❶Hu Ji Cold Drink Room (Dongsheng East Road Branch)
❷0 Degree Rice (Wenxing Garden Tanhuayuan Branch)
Both are OK, choose the one closest to you. A cup of iced eight-treasure soup in summer is so comfortable! It tastes better than Suzhou style, without the taste of red and green silk and toothpaste. The soul ingredients are mung beans and glutinous rice, which are healthy and filling, and the first choice for health afternoon tea. Hu Ji is very sweet, so it is recommended not to add sugar.
✅Afternoon tea
❶Peng Peng Fu Coffee House
It has been ranked top in the popular list of Jiaxing coffee shops all year round, with a relaxed atmosphere, many special selections and affordable prices, and the average price is only more than 20.
❷MORII CAKE
The environment is good and the appearance is high, and the photos are good. The coffee is better than the cake. I recommend one bean and three drinks.
❸Yulian Tea House (Yabaihan Branch)
Signature croissant egg tarts are available in Shanghai and Hangzhou, but in Jiaxing, you don’t have to wait. They are available when you arrive at the store.
✅Midnight snacks
❶Dongdong Wonton (Jingshui Road Branch)
The late-night canteen for Jiaxing people is not the wontons, but the braised food and side dishes. Braised beef, duck feet, duck gizzards, and vegetarian chicken are recommended.
❷Little Fatty Wonton Shop (Hongxing Road Branch)
Open 24 hours a day, more than 20 years old, light taste, suitable for all ages.
❸Dongsheng Noodle House (Xiexi Street Branch)
Open 24 hours a day and all year round, lamb noodles and white-cut chicken are recommended.
