1. staple food:
Lanzhou is located in the northwest, the capital of Gansu Province. People mainly rely on pasta, so the staple food here is basically all kinds of wheat products. Of course, I will also recommend some other specialty staple foods.
I won't say much about beef noodles (hereinafter referred to as Niuda). People all over China know it. Basically, the taste of cattle in Lanzhou is quite authentic, especially if you have eaten from other places before and then eat here, you will think that this nima is the taste of cattle. As for the top ten restaurants in Lanzhou, basically the landlord can find them by searching Weibo or the website. Some features are delicious peppers, some hot soup, some tender beef and some noodles. Anyway, each has its own merits (from 1.5 yuan to now, 6~7 yuan has basically eaten in Lanzhou). I can't give a standard about which is good. After all, it is a matter of personal taste. However, I hope that the subject will add meat and eggs directly when eating (Qi Fei), full of blessings.
Fat sausage noodles, Lanzhou's fat sausage noodles are quite distinctive, so I suggest you try them. Lanzhou Fujian Road Lane pushes Huang Jiayuan fat sausage noodles. 20-year-old shop, 10 yuan a bowl, you can choose to add fat sausage, the taste is just one word: fragrant. The key is to be fat but not greasy. There are so many people in this shop that nearly 800 people eat noodles every day at the peak.
Lentil noodles: light, I haven't eaten much anyway, but many stores have them. You can try.
Gujia casserole: This is a rare non-pasta staple food. Gu Jia has many branches in Lanzhou. It is suggested to go to the head office of Xiguan Asia-Europe Commercial Building. The casserole is very affordable, the soup is rich and the taste is absolutely excellent. Casseroles have many tastes and different prices, but 20 yuan is enough for one person.
Cauldron Chicken: Many people here are wondering, Nima, isn't this the characteristic of Xinjiang? Actually, it's not. Chicken, potato, Daoxiao Noodles and chicken. I won't talk about the potatoes in Gansu, and the noodles are also great. Xinjiang saute spicy chicken head office in Nanguan Lanzhou photo studio and Xinjiang village in Nongfu Lane all taste good. Not expensive. One side dish is enough for two people.
Cold noodles, light in taste, recommended with barbecue. The most famous in Lanzhou is the crispy cold noodles made by Maga. It's easy to find it at the entrance of the Chenghuang Temple on Zhangye Road, because there are too many people.
There are two kinds of mutton noodles, one is fried noodles and the other is soup noodles. I won't say much after my friend explained. I was the first person to promote noodle soup. Lanzhou has many branches. It is recommended to go to the cross headquarters of Maijishan Road at the back door of Lanzhou Medical Campus. 10 yuan A bowl is delicious. Recommended with a dish of leek stuffing, it tastes great in China. Diners are full during peak hours.
2. Northwest dishes and snacks
The famous dishes and snacks in Lanzhou have more or less emblem flavor, and the taste is slightly heavier. The following is a summary.
Catch mutton: Needless to say. Vu Thang Post and Fat Mom in the Center of Lanzhou are both good. Striped mutton with garlic cloves dipped in glistening juice will never be let go, with no fishy smell or greasy feeling at all.
Lanzhou stuffed skin, northwest stuffed skin first pushed Lanzhou stuffed skin. If it is smooth and firm, it will be cold and sour. I suggest looking back at the east entrance of Zhangye Road. There is a small shop in the alley next to the provincial government Christian church (the name has been forgotten). There is a long queue every time I go.
Gray beans, indescribable, faint, but quite delicious. Basically, they can be found in stuffed leather shops.
I don't want to talk about the fermented milk you ate when you came to Lanzhou.
Potato chips and carotene: many people have said it before, so I will mention it briefly.
Mala Tang: Mala Tang is specifically mentioned here because its taste is unique in Lanzhou. Anyway, this is an evaluation of several families.
Grilled fish: Grilled fish is not a feature of Lanzhou, but it is very popular in Lanzhou. And many grilled fish shops have also added a lot of Lanzhou flavor. Recommend the concept restaurant of Four Seasons Fishing Songs opposite Shuangchengmen Shengli Hotel, Sanxian Waterfront on Binhe South Road. The former is spicy enough to eat, and of course it is full. The latter is mainly tasted on cruise ships. The fish is very fresh, and the whole cruise ship is a big nightclub restaurant, which is quite famous in Lanzhou.
Luning snack street: You can say that he can pretend to be X, or you can say that he can open to the outside world. Anyway, every time my friends in Lanzhou go back to Lanzhou to study or work in other places, the first thing they want to do is to go to Zhengning Road Snack Street to brush the street. If you want to eat snacks, I recommend it here first. You have to go. I didn't come out until after five in the afternoon. It is recommended to walk slowly and eat slowly. Basically, you can enjoy the delicious food in Lanzhou or Northwest China. I won't introduce the details one by one. In addition, you should pay more attention to your personal belongings because there are so many sincere people.
Here are some shops to try.
Jingyang Building, Yuebin Building and Lanzhou are two century-old shops, but they all seem to be southern cuisines. They have been there several times, and the taste is average. But sweet and sour tenderloin is good.
Sister restaurant, a very popular gathering place, but I have never been there once.
Put down the coffee. There is one at the east exit of Zhengning Road and one on the first floor of Redmore Wangfujing Department Store on Donggang East Road. There are many kinds of coffee, and the owner is a conscientious person who will combine the characteristics of Lanzhou to create new products. Listen to these names: sweet fermented milk tea, grey bean milk tea, Fuman coffee, sweet fermented milk ice. I suggest giving it a try. The price is much cheaper than Starbucks or something. You can search Weibo specifically.
Taste buds are on the top floor, and soon a new store opened. Top floor of Xiguanli, Yongchang Road, Lanzhou. There are coffee and vegetables. The key point is that the whole store is decorated with special features. You can look at the starry sky directly at night (let's not discuss whether there are stars in Lanzhou), which is also recommended.
Finally, as a native of Lanzhou, I welcome friends from all over the world to visit here. This is not an advanced metropolis like Beishangguang, but it is a pure northwest wind. When you drink Yellow River beer, smoke Lanzhou cigarettes and sit under Zhongshan Railway Bridge, you won't hate the roughness here, but you will like the reality here.
