Special food and snacks on Gulangyu Island< /p>

According to previous guides, look for delicious food. Recommend it.

1． Guzhui Milk Tea, 11-7 Longtou Road, diagonally opposite McDonald's after arriving on the island. I heard that the Guchai milk tea is comparable to the milk tea in Macau, and is hailed as the best milk tea in China by a famous French magician. Guchui's signature milk tea with Guchui pie (packaged in a very unique kraft paper gift box), very pure Gulangyu taste, as someone online said: This store does not sell milk tea, it sells time.

2． Huang Shengji’s Golden Fragrant Pork Floss Shop, 95 Longtou Road. Recommended: Pork Floss, Pork Dried Pork

Every time you pass by the legendary No. 95 Longtou Road (Golden Fragrant Pork Floss Shop), it’s always a traffic stop. The boss was really generous, giving me a piece and a half without blinking an eye. But you may not know that there is also one on Quanzhou Road, but the price is much cheaper than the one on Longtou Road. Pork jerky is the most delicious, 2 bags for 25 yuan and comes with a travel bag haha

3. Ye's Mochi stall is an inconspicuous stall, and the items are also mini glutinous rice cakes.

4． Oyster Omelette: On Longtou Road, eggs, oysters and noodles are spread into pancakes. It tastes pretty good and many stalls are making it.

5. Lin Ji Fish Balls Quanzhou Road. There is a well, and the soup base is very rich. The meatballs are relatively Q. No. 183, Longtou Road, is the next best place, and the others can be ignored! You will see many restaurants called "Original Xiangkou Fish Ball Shop", except for the one at No. 62 Longtou Road, most of them are fake~

6. Tea Time No. 30 Quanzhou Road has a high rating on Ctrip.com. Reasons for recommendation there: Very nice environment, retro gramophone, and mailbox on the wall, taking you back to the old days. The signature dish, curry crab, tastes super authentic, quite tasty, and has a "rich" aroma. You can also take a box of ancient cakes home as a gift, the packaging is very delicious.

7． Huang Zehe branch, a cup of Huang Zehe peanut soup is sweet with the fragrance of peanuts.

8. "Shouji Turtle Cake Shop" Bowl cakes 1 yuan/piece No. 31 Haitan Road, Gulangyu Island

I found this shop accidentally when I was lost, and it was just right for my stomach I was hungry, so I bought one to try. It tasted good and felt very good. When I looked up again, I saw that it was the Shou Ji recommended in the guide.

9. Malasan orange juice costs 5 yuan a cup, which is delicious and cheap. However, it has just moved to No. 410 Longtou Road. The landlady is so funny. She said that a fake one opened at the original location and asked us to go online to help explain, haha. .

10． Northeast Lao Da Niang’s home-style handmade dumplings: A little further up Lin’s Fish Balls, the handmade dumplings are pretty good.

11． "Egg Burger" Egg Burger 2.5 yuan/piece at the intersection of Longtou Road and Quanzhou Road. You can add sweet sauce or hot sauce in the middle, and you can also add sauerkraut and cucumber shreds. It feels very good in the hand, I like it very much. However, the boss seems to change stalls frequently, probably because he is afraid that the urban management will come to arrest him, hey...

On Longtou Road, you can see boiled octopus, frozen bamboo shoots, and seaweed cakes everywhere. The other fish balls and mochi feel similar to ours, and the Shao Xian Cao is basically the same as Guiling Gao.
