The Bell and Drum Tower is a famous scenic spot in Nanjing, and it is also a food gathering place. In this area, there are both time-honored restaurants with a long history and emerging catering brands. The following are the food recommendations near the Bell and Drum Tower.
The first one is the time-honored restaurant "A Xiang Rice Noodles". This shop is the representative of Nanjing rice noodles, which was founded in the 1960s and has a history of several decades. A Xiang rice noodles are characterized by clear soup, refreshing, delicious and not greasy. The taste of rice noodles is very delicate, which is very suitable for cooling off in summer.
The second one is Sichuan Restaurant "Eight Soups". The specialty of this restaurant is "hot pot", but the difference is that the dishes in the hot pot can be eaten directly without dipping in seasoning, which is called Badao soup. In the steaming pot bottom, all kinds of dishes are fresh and tender after being stir-fried.
The third one is the western-style restaurant "KualaLumpurCoffee". This is a Malaysian-style coffee shop with exotic decoration. The quality of the dishes is also great, where you can taste authentic Malaysian food and choose various coffee types.
There are many food choices near the Bell and Drum Tower, among which the above three are my personal favorite brands. You might as well try them, and you will also fall in love with the food near the Bell and Drum Tower.
