Wanzi Barley With the passage of time, many traditional folk delicacies have long disappeared, and it is difficult to find Wanzi Barley on Xiamen Island.

The stall has prepared bowls with various flavors such as scallops, lean meat, dried shrimps, and shiitake mushrooms to choose from. QQ’s bowls come with a variety of special seasonings, so I believe you will be satisfied.
There are professional "eight pieces of crab" for eating crabs, and the bowl also has its own unique tableware - bamboo skewers.
A small bamboo stick with one end sharpened to a sharp point, it looks like a bamboo sword. It is really more convenient and interesting to use to eat bowls than chopsticks and spoons.
It is worth mentioning that this stall is only open in the morning and is sold out in a blink of an eye. If you want to try it out, you have to hurry up early.

Ah-Dai's Salted Water Duck is an exaggeration. Ah-Dai's Salted Water Duck can be said to be fragrant. You can smell the rich aroma far away from the store. This aroma alone is already the best sign.
Every time I take the salted duck that has been cut into pieces and packed and rush home, I can’t wait to open it. The aroma of the salted duck instantly fills the whole room. When I look closely at the duck meat, it is golden in color and even more wet on the surface.

The taste of duck meat mixed with ginger slices and sesame oil stirs up your taste buds. It lingers between your lips and teeth for a long time. It can really be said that "the lingering aftertaste"
The tongue will not stop for three days.”
Songbolin Dumplings was originally located downstairs of the Labor Union, but now it has been moved to the intersection of Songlin Lane near the park, and is only open at night.
During the day, you can only buy it at their home (just ask around in the alley across the street). I remember when I was very young, my family and I often went there for midnight snacks after going to the movies. The proprietress is from Guizhou, and she would always smile when she saw how I wolfed down my food.
Their family's unique accent says: "Eat slowly, eat slowly, don't choke." Now I often mention this when I go shopping. Maybe I have been in Xiamen for a long time. The dumplings are also infected with the delicacy of the south and are small in size.
It is small and feels more like a handicraft. It is an ancient stall that only sells dumplings. The boss is an interesting person and often talks about interesting things before liberation.
Zhaozhi Pizza Address: Building 1, Xiangfu Garden, near the bus station in Tong'an District. Spring rolls, also known as pizza, are a traditional delicacy in southern Fujian. It is often customary to eat pizza during the Qingming Festival.
The origin of pancakes can be traced back to the Ming Dynasty. At that time, Cai Fuyi, a famous Neo-Confucian eunuch in Tong'an, was busy with government affairs and often forgot to eat and sleep when he was acting governor in other provinces. Mrs. Cai was worried that her husband would starve if things continued like this, so she came up with a way: wrap the dishes with bread.
It was very convenient for the husband to hold the pen with his right hand and take food with his left hand. This is the original shape of the pancake.
