[2025 Harbin Restaurant] Travel Guide for TATOC (Updated Apr)

When I visited Harbin, I had a great meal at this restaurant. It’s located on Zhongyang street and is always very busy. I didn’t have a RSVP and waited for over an hour. For 107¥, I had a Bosche soup, pot stewed vegetables (cauliflower, broccoli, celery, potatoes, carrots and cabbage served in a tomato soup), a chicken salad and a Harbin beer. Everything was delicious! #harbin #foodie #foodieheaven #urbanexplorer

As night falls, the signs on Central Avenue light up brightly, creating a really great atmosphere. The big characters "Central Avenue" exude a unique charm under the light. This place is like a place full of stories, and the buildings on both sides of the street seem to be telling the prosperity of the past. It is also an architectural art museum, and you can feel the breath of art in every corner. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Whether you come with friends or alone, you can have a different experience.

When I came to Harbin, I checked online and found that I could try the Russian 🇷🇺 food here. This time I chose the Tados restaurant to try its authentic Russian cuisine. This restaurant is very famous. It is the first Western restaurant in Harbin. It was founded in 1901 and has a history of nearly 100 years. It is really a century-old restaurant. This restaurant is also at the top of the must-eat list. The restaurant has a very Russian style and characteristics, and the waiters in the store are basically dressed in Russian costumes. The food part is not what I am used to. But considering that it is unlikely for me to travel to Russia🇷🇺, it is a good idea to give it a try. Here is the menu I ordered: Ukrainian borscht Russian prune and beetroot salad Fried salmon Quick-cooked Lamb Black pepper steak Caucasian Lemon Mustard Chicken #Overseas Travel #Harbin #Russian Food
