When you come to Xiamen, you must go to Gulangyu Island. When buying water, don't buy it near the scenic spots. It will be very expensive. There is a cheap supermarket in the park in the middle of the street. Islanders usually buy their daily necessities there.
The snacks are Ye's mochi, which costs 1 yuan each, and Huangjinxiang meat floss, dried meat, etc., which are very delicious. Our family often buys them to accompany rice.
Nowadays, there are many selling gold-plated and silver-coated skins. The bread and shiitake mushrooms inside are very strong. It costs about 3 yuan. There is also a store opposite Andrewson that sells Beizai cakes for 1.5. I don’t know if the price has increased. They are salty and sweet.
The salty one is curry and the sweet one is peanut malasan. The fruit juice at the park in the middle of the street is very good. It costs 5 to 10 yuan for a cup of freshly squeezed fruit. I recommend mango ice and papaya milk, which we often drank when we were in school.
But it is true that good business will make people jealous. If you go there, you should pay attention to whether it is Marasang or Marathon. There is a fish ball shop opposite Malasang, which is also good and authentic. When I was in school, I could see the boss making fish early in the morning.
The meatballs are all made by hand, so the meatballs are not as round and beautiful.
For Gulangyu Island pie, you have to buy Wangji's. It's crispy and the price is cheaper than other places. Zhongshan Road has to be visited at night to get busy. If you want to eat sand tea noodles, taro buns, shrimp noodles, five-spice noodles, threads, and other salty foods, go to Wu Zaitian. The environment is not that good, but
But for a very authentic and sweet meal, go to Huang Zehe, which has leek boxes, fried dates and peanut soup, etc. Duck porridge. If you want to eat Datong duck porridge, take the bus opposite Datong Elementary School and go to Kaihe intersection for braised duck. The delicious local braised duck in Xiamen and Hong Kong
For bamboo shoot jelly, you have to go to the Ximen Tu Bamboo Bamboo Jelly store at the west gate of Zhongshan Park. It has been open for a long time. When I was in kindergarten, my family often took me to eat 1 piece and 1 piece of ice. If I want to eat ice cream, I can go to Slimei Ferry and take bus 97 509 528 and get off at the opposite side of Jiamei Garden.
It’s really great. I recommend mango ice and crispy taro ice. Personally, I prefer the latter.
The more, the better!
