The first thing I learned about Lanzhou was its food.

Eating in Lanzhou is a very important thing.

To say why Lanzhou people can live so comfortably, it is also because of Lanzhou food.

Those food streets always use their accumulated reputation and understanding of Lanzhou to define Lanzhou cuisine.

Zhengning Road Snack Street is Lanzhou’s food business card, a very famous snack street in Lanzhou.

There are a wide variety of snacks on both sides of the 200-meter-long street, including snacks, pasta, famous foods from various countries, fruits, dried fruits, cold drinks, etc.

Along this road, Lanzhou has countless delicacies.

Recommended foods: fermented milk, barbecue, apricot peel tea, haggis, grilled fish, noodles and sausages, grilled wings.

Remember to taste a little of everything, otherwise you'll be full before the end.

Dazhong Alley is connected to Lanzhou's beautiful Binhe Road to the north and Zhangye Road, the most prosperous road in Lanzhou, to the south.

There are authentic Lanzhou restaurants, time-honored beef noodles, authentic Lanzhou snacks with a long history, strong-flavored fried noodles, and greasy barbecue.

Many of them have been around for decades and taste really good.

People who are not good at finding delicious food like to chat with the boss here, and they always talk casually about the development of Lanzhou.

Recommended foods: Malu beef noodles, Jincheng fried noodles, Jiejun mutton steamed buns, Pingliang mutton steamed buns, Duji sweets, Ruji barbecue, old place dumpling wrappers.

There are delicious stalls on both sides of Nongfu Alley.

Later, which stalls became restaurants.
