1. Nanshi Food Street

Nanshi Food Street is a cloister-style three-story building, where all kinds of classic snacks from Tianjin are gathered, and it is a good place to taste Tianjin cuisine. Among them, Tianjin's famous Guifaxiang Twist, Shibajie Twist, Erduoyan, and stone doorsill can be found. The second floor is dominated by restaurants, with Sichuan cuisine, Shandong cuisine and other cuisines, but most of them are expensive and the dishes are mixed. Tianjin Restaurant and Yaxi Restaurant are recommended. In addition, the Kongfujia wine building on the second floor often has cross talk performances in the afternoon and evening. Nowadays, tourists from outside Nanshi Food Street come mainly, and the price will be more expensive than outside. It is recommended to taste snacks and go shopping here. If you want to have dinner or buy gifts to take away, it is not recommended to choose here. This is a square food shopping mall, where all kinds of famous Tianjin snacks gather, such as Guifaxiang 18th Street Twist, Goubuli Steamed Bun, Guorenzhang, Erduoyan Fried Cake, Pancake Fruit, etc., which just gather together and present them to tourists for tasting and purchasing. It is a must-see for tourists in Tianjin, but local friends in Tianjin say that they stay away from it. The antique architecture of the food street is antique, and it is quite distinctive to visit, but when it comes to food itself, it feels that the shops in the food street are dazzling and then mixed, and I am too lazy to think about whether it is authentic. I saw crowds everywhere and various tour groups came to sweep it. At this time, I really lamented the huge consumption potential of Chinese people. Because it mainly serves tourists now, although all kinds of Tianjin snacks can be found, the price is naturally more expensive. If you can find them in other places, you can often find them, so don't consider it here. The price outside is lower than this famous food street. I think the significance of coming to Nanshi Food Street is more about coming here, learning what features you can choose, and then buying it outside with a clear idea.
