Chinatown Express

This is a very good street, close to the Newcastle football team's main venue St James'' Park and a large proportion of Chinese students newcastle business college, and near the city center monument. Some Chinese supermarket goods in the block cannot be bought elsewhere, and the business is very good. Some restaurants have to take the elevator directly upstairs to eat, it is rare here, it can be seen that the commercial density here is larger than the surrounding area. There is also a Chinese medicine museum. The most conspicuous is the city wall, which was left by a large lead pigment factory before.

Chinatown is in the city, there is a big Chinese super, things are very complete, and the restaurant is very general, compared to Chinese food, several Japanese restaurants are still good, the environment is very good, very clean, walking there is very safe

Some people have Chinese. Newcastle has developed Chinatown (Chinatown) as more and more Chinese students have poured in. Outside the Chinatown archway is the famous Premier League Newcastle United home: St. James's Stadium. This close distance is the time for restaurants in Chinatown to have a bumper harvest after the game. The waiters inside, mostly Chinese students, are studying here. Newcastle Chinatown is much smaller than Chinatown in other big cities in the UK. There are only one or two small supermarkets in China. We turned around in it. Rice noodles, various seasonings, instant noodles, small packaged mustard, bottled pickles, honey dumplings, leisure food... There are many varieties, and the price is quite scary. Generally, it is 10 times more expensive than domestic sales. In the Chinese buffet, the most variety of dishes is fried, fried shrimp, fried pork chops, fried steak, fried lobster slices, fried dumplings, fried spring rolls..., and the roasted red, sour and sweet old meat. It costs 6 pounds to eat a burger in the UK and the taste is single. And the same 6 pounds to eat Chinese buffet, not only can let go of the stomach to eat stir-fried vegetables, fried rice, fried noodles, etc., but also desserts, fruits and ice cream, so foreigners also like to come and patronize. To be honest, the taste of the Chinese buffet is really not very good. Do you think the taste of the big pot dish will be good? But because the price is much cheaper than the fried small pot dish, you still have to eat it. The restaurant is mainly Cantonese restaurant, mostly Hong Kong bosses are operating, there are also Sichuan cuisine, northeastern cuisine. Friends who want to eat fast food such as rice noodles and fried noodles can go to the day, the price is not expensive, a meal is about 7 pounds. Friends who like self-service hot pot recommend to Baofayuan. The ingredients are fresh, there are many types, and there are seafood barbecue pastries and fruits. The price is not cheap, 20 pounds/person. In addition, Qianhong Hall can also sing K, order food to send private rooms, the service is similar to that of China. There is also a Casino in Chinatown, you can go in to try your luck, and you can play mahjong on the second floor, free of charge. There is also a fried chicken shop outside the archway in Chinatown. It is called chicken village by us. It is very cheap. A set meal (fried chicken + chips + drinks) is less than 5 pounds. The business is also excellent.

I visited Luna's new year day and it was very narrower than I thought. I don't know why there are so many people to see this, but it was a unique experience!

We took the train from Edinburgh to Newcastle, the heavy northern English town, in the morning. In the afternoon, four of us left the hotel to start our tour in Newcastle, and the rain was still heavy. According to the guidance of the navigation of "Google Maps", we went to a Chinese restaurant not far away for lunch. After not thinking of the destination, we found that the Chinese restaurant on the roadside had closed down. Fortunately, there are Chinese-marked travel agencies, foot massage shops and student service centers nearby, and we are sure that there should be Chinese restaurants nearby. Turning a corner, I saw a street with lanterns hanging on both sides of the street, most of them are Chinese restaurants, and most of them are hot pot buffets. We went into a Cantonese-based Chinese restaurant and after we settled in, we ordered a roast duck half, salt and pepper, radish burdock and garlic steamed prawns, staple rice. Four people spent a total of £51 on a full meal, paid with a BC Visa credit card. I was very satisfied with the meal and the dishes tasted very good. After the meal, I walked out of the other end of the street and saw the tall red archway standing on the street entrance, the three words "Chinatown" on it were particularly striking. It was originally Newcastle's Chinatown, and we only came here to know that the University of Newcastle was still a top 100 university in the world. Newcastle University, as a first-class institution in the UK, has a reputation that dates back to the medical school established in 1834. One of the oldest 100-year-old universities in the UK, as a red brick university in the UK and Russell University Allied University, the university is known for providing high-quality teaching and research courses, with strong scientific research strength and international prestige. Therefore, in addition to seeing Chinese restaurants in the surrounding area, there are Chinese students coming and going. It seems that the University of Newcastle, famous for medical school, is also the target of many Chinese students. On the road, you can also see a lot of Chinese high school students, they should be summer study tour groups, they are also the future of British universities to recruit the object. This trip to the UK happened to be a summer vacation. I saw a large number of Chinese tourists traveling with children. From Pudong Airport, walking on the streets of London, and staying in a hotel, parents who took children out can be seen everywhere. This is definitely the most unique Chinese feature in the world tourism landscape, and it is unique and unprecedented. The surplus Chinese have pinned their hopes on the next generation.

Chinatown can eat a lot of special Chinese food here, the Chinese signboard on South Street is very kind.
