MODERN 1906

This is the famous Madiel cold drink hall. Although it is winter, you should buy a Madiel ice cream 🍦 even if you are wearing a thick down jacket, and feel the charm of Madiel popsicle.

Madiel on Central Street has become a tourist attraction. There is a small stall in front of the store selling small items such as ice cream and bread. I saw a lot of people gathered from a distance. I couldn't bear to buy ice cream, so I bought a candied haws.

Madiel Cold Drink Hall is located at a corner in the middle of Central Avenue. In addition to the long queue for buying black bread at Huamei Western Restaurant, there is also a long queue at the entrance of Madiel. I love the original flavor and chocolate flavor, which is full of milk fragrance.

A shop you must check in when you come to Harbin, Madiel. This Madiel popsicle is the most authentic one in the local area. There are only 4 kinds of products sold here, original popsicle, cream vanilla popsicle, coffee popsicle, and candied haws. Even so, you can see the undulating crowds queuing up to buy from a long distance. When you come here, you will find that Harbin has a temperature below zero, and popsicles do not need a refrigerator. They are all sold directly in plastic boxes. And are you afraid of eating popsicles in winter? No, don’t worry at all. It’s cold outside, and you don’t feel cold at all when eating popsicles. So I tried all the popsicle flavors. Each flavor is so rich and delicate and smooth. Candied haws is also delicious. Red dates are added to it. Emmmm... It’s different from our southern ones. I have to say in a low voice that Madiel is so delicious that we bought it three times in one day on Central Street.

You must eat a popsicle from Madiel when you come to Harbin. One of the three wonders of Harbin is that they sell popsicles outdoors. Because it is so cold in Xu Wen, it is more than 10 degrees below zero, so there is no need for a refrigerator, which saves electricity. In the central area of ​​Central Street, near the Central Bookstore, the green one is the store in front and the restaurant in the back. It is easy to identify. Popsicles are sold like this. The basic version is 5 yuan a piece. It tastes good, milky, and there are other flavors. There are not many people queuing. You can eat slowly here because it will not melt. If you like, you can go in and have a dessert, which is not expensive.

I have had a special feeling for the Madiel cold drink hall since I was a child! I remember that it was the summer of 1985. My father took our family of four and his friend's family of four to play in Sun Island. On the way back, I was in a bad mood and said I would not walk. I wasted a lot of time and missed the boat. The boat ticket I bought in advance was wasted! When we took the next boat back, the flood control memorial tower was cordoned off and there were crowds of people. After asking around, I learned that the boat we missed sank and many people died! My father was glad to take all of us to Madiel and reward me with ice cream, which I could eat as much as I wanted! I remember that the plate for ice cream was very, very big, and one plate could hold 20 to 30 or more. That was also the only time I ate such a large plate of ice cream. I guess no matter how much you buy in Madiel now, you won't get that kind of large plate. Many years have passed, and every time I pass by Madiel, I think of this memory. Childhood things are always unforgettable!

If you come to Harbin and Central Street and don't visit the Madiel Cold Drinks Hall, then your trip is in vain. The entire cold drink hall is very exotic, and the time is really early in 1906. The last time I ate their apples was 10 years ago. This time I came again, the price has not changed. But the taste doesn't seem to be the same as it was back then.

Popsicles + yogurt + bread = perfection. Of course, these three things are the must-buys when you come to the Madiel cold drink hall. Some people say that popsicles are delicious and they are really good. However, the taste is really a bit familiar to popsicles. So, just eat popsicles, yogurt, pure handmade old yogurt. There are no additives, unlike those sold in supermarkets. This yogurt tastes sour. If you are not used to it, remember to ask Auntie for sugar. Bread, Madiel popsicles and bread are absolutely irresistible to Harbin locals. The bread is soft, slightly sweet, and not sticky at all, and the heat is just right. Authentic Russian bread, everyone must try it. ❤️Others, grilled red sausages and grilled lamb skewers are electric grilled, all of which are electric grilled, and the quality of the meat is guaranteed. Madiel's red sausage is still very good~
