On the west side of Friendship Square

Dalian people are mostly descendants of the people who made the journey to the East in Jiaodong, Shandong Province, so Dalian cuisine also belongs to Shandong cuisine, which takes seafood as the main raw material and combines the strengths of China and foreign countries, forming its own unique style. Dalian's famous dishes include red roasted whole shrimp, steamed abalone with rare shell lanterns, sea cucumber, Eight Immortals (fresh) crossing the sea, pearl sea urchin, steamed scallops, steamed Cargill fish, colorful snowflake scallops, sea cucumber with lanterns, colorful butterfly shrimp and squid playing with dragons and snails. It's a great pity not to eat seafood in Dalian. Local people eat seafood in Kyushu. If they want to eat seafood, it is best not to come in July and August. At this time, Dalian is closed to the sea and there are basically no fresh seafood. If you can't get used to seafood, you can go to the barbecue street in the square in front of the station. There are many barbecues there, and the taste is good. Dalian's characteristic iron plate grilled squid is famous all over the country, and the barbecue shop is usually open until midnight, which is a good place for gathering.
