What travelers say:
When traveling to Chaozhou, you must try a Chaoshan restaurant. I happened to see this one. The storefront looked good and the business was very good, so it should be good. I chose the special marinated platter, the signature dish shrimp pomegranate balls, a mango fish cake with fruit as a dish, and the main dish was rice cake. The overall taste was very satisfying, refreshing, and the seasoning did not overwhelm the original taste of the ingredients. The pomegranate balls were so beautifully made, highly recommended.

There are many dining options in the ancient city, but I wanted to try Chaoshan cuisine, so I went into this large and popular restaurant. Although there were many people, each table was independent, the environment was good, and the service was relatively orderly. I was alone and didn't order much. I ordered a few things according to my preferences, and none of them were disappointing. The signature shrimp and pomegranate balls must not be missed. Fortunately, you can order them individually. From the appearance to the taste, it is really well-deserved. Fragrant mango cuttlefish cakes, a sweet dish, may be because of the fruit seasoning, it is not greasy. Braised food is a must. For those with difficulty in choosing, the platter is recommended. I tried several varieties. I chose rat shell cake for dim sum, just because of the strange name, haha, it turns out that I thought too much, and it has nothing to do with rats.
Dinner on the last night of the trip. We were so hungry after eating and walking around all afternoon that we just ate something. The dishes we ordered were all delicious, and the "Shrimp and Pomegranate Balls" were the best. The service was also OK, but we encountered a group of guests arguing with the waiter. I personally think that the guests were being unreasonable.
When traveling in Chaoshan, eating is an indispensable part of the itinerary! The night view of Xiangzi Bridge at night must not be missed. The ancient city at night can only be described as dazzling, it is really beautiful! [Environment] This Chaoshan Restaurant is located in the ancient city, not far from Xiangzi Gate. The decoration is ancient and has good reviews, so come and try it! | Chaozhou Oyster Omelette^ In fact, it is a bit like the oyster omelette in Xiamen. It is fried into a large piece. Compared with the pearl oysters that Xiamen people like to use, the oysters here are all larger, which can also be said to be small oysters. | Chaozhou Fish Dumpling Soup^ Seaweed + fish dumplings, relatively light | Wet-fried beef rice noodles^ When I came to Chaozhou, my favorite is beef rice noodles. The rice noodles are very chewy and the beef is very generous! The wet-fried method is my favorite. |Snack platter^There are four kinds of snacks, most of which are stuffed with glutinous rice balls, and the two fried ones are more fragrant |Goose meat platter^The goose meat is average, this one is quite disappointing |Balang fish rice^Chaozhou fish rice actually means fish jelly, the fish meat is icy and chewy after being frozen! |Farmer's white-cut chicken^The price is reasonable, but it should not be farm chicken, the meat quality is average [Service]The waiter's attitude is quite good, and he actively pours tea, and the whole meal is quite comfortable!
🌸 Chaoshanlou, as soon as you hear the name, you know it is a place to eat Chaozhou cuisine. The restaurant is quite popular. We went there at 6 o'clock in the evening and waited for about half an hour before we got a seat. 📍The restaurant is located in the ancient city of Chaozhou, just a few steps away from the archway street, and the location is quite good! 🌿The environment is good, with the ancient style of pavilions and buildings. There are many partitions in the restaurant with walls, and even if you sit in the hall, the privacy is good. "Shrimp Pomegranate Ball" is an award-winning dish. It costs ten yuan each and is absolutely worth the money. The shrimp balls are soaked in a small plate filled with broth, wrapped in layers of thin skin, and the fillings inside are very sufficient, with big shrimps, bamboo shoots and carrots, etc., which are fresh and refreshing. "Chaozhou Beef Ball Soup" I have eaten too many beef balls in Chaozhou. This dish of theirs can only be said to be neither good nor bad, so there is no need to order it specifically. "Goose Meat Platter" is recommended! The two girls shared a small goose platter and were still not satisfied.
Chaoshanlou is located in the center of Paifang Street, just a few steps away from Yuan Temple and Guangji Bridge, with convenient transportation. The second floor of the restaurant is decorated in an antique style and has comfortable private rooms. You can see the ancient city through the window, and the ventilation and scenery are good. The boss is a Chaozhou native, and he produces many dishes, including classic Chaozhou dishes and innovative dishes, and the ingredients are very fresh. The store is not expensive and takes a civilian route. Many locals will come here to entertain friends from other places.
The boss's restaurant and inn are both in very good locations. "Kapok Mansion" is right next to the city tower and has a sky garden with a river view. The restaurant is located on Guangjimen Street in the center of Paifang Street. After dinner, you can walk to watch the "Guangji Bridge" light show. The environment is also good. The food tastes great. The chestnut chicken tastes very good, but the portion of some dishes is not very large. The service is also good.
