The specialties of Tianjin are pancake fruit, fried cake and Goubuli steamed stuffed bun.

1. Pancake fruit: The pancake fruit in Tianjin is different from that in Shandong, which is popular all over the country now. The pancake fruit in Tianjin is made of mung beans, while that in Shandong is made of soybeans. In contrast, the pancake beans made from mung beans are full of flavor, have no bean smell, and are particularly tough to eat. If you come to Tianjin, you must try the pancake fruit.

2. Fried cakes: There are countless shops selling fried cakes on the streets and lanes in Tianjin, which are very popular among diners. Fried cakes originated in the Guangxu period of Qing Dynasty, and were deeply loved by the nobles of the palace and ordinary people because of their fine workmanship and rich taste. The fried cake looks golden in color, smells full of bean flavor, and tastes crisp outside and glutinous inside, which is very refreshing.

3. Goubuli Steamed Bun: Goubuli Steamed Bun is the best snack in Tianjin, and it is a famous food at home and abroad. It was founded in Xianfeng period, and has been tested and precipitated for hundreds of years. Nowadays, Goubuli Steamed Bun pays more attention to the selection of stuffing and the strict and meticulous processing technology. Fresh-baked steamed buns are steaming, so they are tender and juicy and not greasy at all.
