Lao Fuzhou Xuji (Doudong Branch), this is the second one we came to Fuzhou. It feels better than the first one, but the place is a bit cramped. This time we ordered the store's star Buddha Jumps Over the Wall for 329 yuan, which is better than the 100 yuan one in every way. The ingredients are better, the quality is better, and the soup is thicker. I love the taro paste in Fuzhou, which is delicate and smooth. The scallion oil sea chrysanthemum is a squid head, fresh and crispy.
I'm used to opening Ctrip to find delicious food when I get to a place.
Old Fuzhou Xuji, this name looks old, so I followed the navigation here. It's hard to park, which is generally the case in Fuzhou. It's most convenient to take a taxi.
[Taste] It is said that even gods can't stand when they smell it. This is his signature dish, a must-order! It's real, the food inside can be eaten and seen, and there is fried noodles, which are not dry or greasy, just right. The children ate two bowls, and the rest were recommended by the waiter. Two adults and one child thought it was very appetizing.
[Environment] The restaurant is not big, but it is very literary, comfortable and clean.
[Service] The service attitude is also normal, no smiling face to greet, no expressionless face to reject people, it's the dishes of old Fuzhou.
I will come again if I have a chance

As a veteran fly-in-the-wall restaurant in Fuzhou, Antai Community Canteen has a very high cost-effectiveness, rich dishes and affordable prices. It is worth a try!
Although the environment of this restaurant is simple, it is full of the flavor of old Fuzhou and is suitable for diners who want to experience the authentic taste of Fuzhou.

『Xuanhe Yiwei』
Rongqiao Center 3F
▸▸▸Dishes
"Wuyi Rock Tea"
A cup of good tea starts a food journey
Black tea does not hurt the stomach, and its tea is of excellent quality,
Smooth taste, full of fragrance after drinking.
"Maggi Pickled Cucumber"
Very delicious, crisp taste, moderate saltiness, as an appetizer, appetizing and healthy, I ate a plate alone
"Sand ginger salt-baked three yellow chicken"
Sand ginger is a kind of ginger that coconut chicken often uses to make dipping sauce,
Used to salt-baked chicken, the chicken has a unique flavor, worth trying.
"Duck sauce boiled vermicelli"
Duck sauce boiled vermicelli is very delicious, the flavor of "adding rice wine" in the soup, removes the fishy smell and enhances the flavor, which can be said to be the soul of this staple food.
"Rock Tea Milk Jelly"
The dessert after the meal is very popular with me. The milk jelly is blended with the flavor of rock tea, with a smooth taste and very low sweetness. Even the elders at home can accept it.
"Taro paste"
Taro paste is particularly loved by most people in Fuzhou, and I like it very much.
I like the sandy and sticky taste of taro paste, and the sweetness is just right. The portion is just right, just enough to satisfy me~
▸▸▸Environment
The main tone is wood color, the atmosphere is soothing, and it is suitable for dining.
▸▸▸Service
The service attitude is very good. If you make a reservation in advance, you will receive a confirmation call when the time is approaching, which is very considerate.
The tea is also added very promptly, and the serving speed is also very fast~
A pleasant dining experience.

We found this restaurant by accident and came in to eat just when it was time for dinner. The environment was simple and clean. The waiters were very friendly and enthusiastic. The dishes were large in size and tasted very good. We were all very satisfied.
It is right next to the Old Fuzhou Xuji Store. Although not as famous as the Old Fuzhou Xuji, the variety of dishes at Shixian is similar to that of the Old Fuzhou Xuji. There are steamed taro paste, Buddha jumps over the wall, fried liver and other Min dishes. The taste is also very delicious. The combination of sweet and sour in Fujian cuisine is still quite local. The fish ball soup is fresh and sweet, making people not greasy.

Picture 1: The edge of the pot, the rice paste is made into pieces, and the small seafood is added, the taste is so delicious that you can swallow your tongue; Picture 2: Shrimp cakes and oyster cakes, fried in rice paste, crispy and delicious. Picture 3: Beef slices, how can beef be so tender
A local friend in Fuzhou strongly recommended to us a restaurant that has been eaten by locals for decades. It started as a roadside stall and has now become a restaurant. He said it is full of memories of Fuzhou locals and their tastes, so I tried it as my first stop. I didn't order anything too signature and the taste was pretty satisfactory. Maybe I don't understand the local taste and didn't order anything too amazing.

Eat Fuzhou cuisine in fast food style | Stewed pot is the essence | Free Fujian old wine?
This restaurant is a relatively good fast food restaurant, which is quite famous in Fuzhou. People who come to eat here are all locals. There are several chain stores in Fuzhou. I just ate at the Liming store near Liming.
👉 Dishes:
🍲 The dishes are all small plates, including classic Fuzhou dishes such as lychee meat, small intestines, and fish. The advantage is that if you want to try Fuzhou cuisine alone and it is not easy to order dishes in a restaurant, this restaurant is very suitable.
The most signature of this restaurant is the various stewed pots, with prices ranging from 17-35, and there is also a simple version of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
I chose #Tube Bone and Bone Marrow Stew Pot# for 20 yuan. It has a light wine aroma and fish. The soup tastes salty and fresh like seafood. The bone marrow is smooth and tender, and it actually tastes a bit like pig brain flower. If you like it, you must order it.
#肉沫蒸蛋# 10 yuan, the meat is fat and lean, the egg is a little hard, it is a dish that goes well with rice.
#炒花菜# 8 yuan, a bit expensive, and it is actually fast food, not freshly fried.
Rice and watermelon are all you can eat, the watermelon is sweet, and the rice is a little hard. The average cost per person is 40-50 yuan, if there are many people, it is more cost-effective to order Fuzhou dishes in the restaurant, it is suitable for one person to come to this restaurant. And there is a bottle of Fujian old wine on each table, is it free to drink?
Hygienic environment, unique taste, warm service, and many customers

There are many kinds of seafood, all caught and killed freshly, the dishes are generous in portion and taste authentic.
Day 1: Minyue Water Town + Gushan (Experience Minyue Culture + Climb to See the Distance)
Morning: Minyue Water Town
- 9:30 AM Arrive at the scenic area entrance and take photos of the ancient buildings at Fu Culture Square. Remember to wear light-colored clothing for better photos.
- 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM Stroll along the main street and enjoy performances: Maritime Silk Road Square hosts the "Ancient Maritime Silk Road Show." At the Qinghong Arena, you might encounter the Min King patrolling the city. If you have children, visit the "Dream Building Paradise" for rides (some attractions are charged separately).
- For lunch, we recommend Minyue Restaurant within the scenic area. Try the lychee meat and red fermented rice wine pork, or bring your own snacks to save time.
Afternoon: Gushan
- 1:30 PM Take a taxi to Gushan (approximately 40 minutes, approximately 60 yuan). Take Metro Line 2 to Gushan Station, exit A, and walk 10 minutes to the foot of the mountain. - 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM: Take the cable car up and down the mountain (50 yuan one-way, 70 yuan round-trip). From the summit, Baiyunding, you can overlook the Minjiang River. If you're more energetic, you can take the thousand-year-old hiking trail down the mountain and see the cliff carvings along the way.
- 4:30 PM - 5:30 PM: Visit Yongquan Temple on the mountainside (40 yuan admission). The ancient temple and ancient trees create a Zen atmosphere.
- Dinner: Many new restaurants have opened at the Huimin Food Plaza at the foot of Gushan Mountain. We recommend the medicinal beef soup at Beiling Yellow Cattle Restaurant or the seafood at Wangzhuang Ami Food Stall (90 yuan per person).
Day 2: Fujian Museum + Shangxiahang (History, Culture, and Art Night Tour)
Morning: Fujian Museum
- 9:00 AM: Take Metro Line 1 to Pingshan Station, exit B, and walk 5 minutes to the museum. Open Tuesday to Sunday, closed Monday. Highlights:
- The "Fujian Underground" exhibition hall on the first floor features porcelain recovered from a Song Dynasty shipwreck – stunning!
- The "Fujian Ancient Civilization Exhibition" on the second floor features a Dehua white porcelain Guanyin statue, with flowing sleeves resembling a real person.
- At 11:30 a.m., enjoy the intangible cultural heritage meat dumpling at the nearby Tongli Meat Duckling Shop. The skin is pounded from pure meat and is chewy and fresh.
Afternoon: Shangxiahang
- At 1:30 p.m., take Metro Line 1 to Dadao Station, Exit C, and walk 7 minutes to Shangxiahang.
- From 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., stroll around Santong Bridge and Yongde Guild Hall, taking photos of the bluestone pavement and red lanterns. We recommend Qiang's Fujian Cuisine Restaurant for lightly fermented snail slices and pan-fried liver in southern Fujian (NT$60 per person), or Erlongbo Peanut Soup for a smooth peanut soup with taro paste. - 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM: Walk 15 minutes from Shangxiahang to Zhongping Road. Stop by the retro cafe "Lusen" and sit by the window, gazing at the old houses.
Evening
- 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM: Shangxiahang is stunningly beautiful after the lights are on, reminiscent of a Jiangnan district! Be sure to take photos of the reflections at Santong Bridge. Some snack shops close after 8:00 PM, so if you want fish balls or pot-side porridge, get there early.
- 8:30 PM: End your trip and take a taxi back to your hotel in the city.
🌟 Notes:
1. Minyue Water Town: Remember to bring sunscreen and mosquito repellent in the summer, as mosquitoes can be prevalent at night.
2. Gushan: The cable car stops operating at 5:00 PM on Mondays and 5:30 PM on other days. It's recommended to purchase tickets two hours in advance.
3. Shangxiahang: Some old buildings are undergoing renovations, so be careful when taking photos. 4. Transportation: Taking a taxi between attractions is the most time-efficient. Metro Line 2 connects Gushan and the city center, but buses can be congested.
This arrangement allows for a relaxing trip while still allowing you to fully experience Fuzhou's history, scenery, and cuisine. Have a great time! #SonglikeJourney #Most Asked-About-Your-Friends #Outdoors #Where-to-Go-This-Weekend #Romantic-Domestic-Travel-Destinations
