[2025 Shenzhen Restaurant] Travel Guide for Fan Lou (Huaqiang North) (Updated Aug)

#Mainland China Attractions Fanlou, known as one of the ceilings of Cantonese dim sum in Shenzhen, is an Internet celebrity restaurant in Shenzhen. I came here specifically to try it this time. It is said that Fanlou originated from a three-story teahouse on Tongxing Street in Xiguan, Guangzhou in the early years. It is famous for its "thin and translucent shrimp dumpling skin and large and fresh shrimps", so shrimp dumplings are one of the must-order signature dishes, and they taste really good. In addition, we also ordered lava buns and sea urchin dumplings, the taste was just average, without any big surprises. The restaurant's decoration style is antique and elegant in Chinese style, making it suitable for gatherings with friends and family. Fanlou currently has many branches in Shenzhen, basically in every district. This time we went to the Huaqiangbei store in Futian. There were still a lot of people there, so remember to come early and get a seat. Address: No. 118 Zhenhua Road, Futian District, Shenzhen (Huaqiang North Store)

If a large group of friends go to Shenzhen, I would recommend that everyone go to this teahouse. I think the price is a good deal (a little cheaper than Hong Kong but not super affordable). The important thing is that the decoration is good and the space is sufficient. This teahouse has many branches. I like to go to the Huaqiang North branch. The transportation is very convenient~ There are really a lot of dim sum choices here. In addition to the shrimp dumplings, pork dumplings, barbecued pork and radish wraps that are often eaten in Hong Kong, there are also some dim sums with unique presentations and combinations. Among them, I recommend the walnut buns with caramel milk sauce and salad. The whole silk silver snow roll, the fried carrot cake is also very delicious, and my favorite fried milk 😋 Most of the steamed snacks are served in a special square snack cage, which is easy to check in when stacked~~ There is also a small iron trolley placed next to the teapot while boiling water to keep the temperature, which is also a very interesting and considerate feature Partially~ 📍蘩楼(Huaqiang North Store) 📍Address: No. 118, Zhenhua Road, Futian District, Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province (Exit C of Huaqiang North Station of Metro Line 2) #蘩楼 #华强北 #852FV_Shenzhen #Shenzhen Food #Shenzhen Check-in #Shenzhen One-Day Tour #点心 #hkfoodhunter #hkfoodies #hkfoodsnap #hkfoodstagram #hkfoodblogger #hkfoodpic #852FV_food #hkfoodie #foodiehk #hkfoodlover #852foodvoyage

This teahouse is called 蘩樓. Many Hong Kongers eat there, including many locals. You have to queue for at least 1-1.5 hours. There are many stools to sit and wait in the waiting area, the decor is quite antique, the place is very spacious. Once seated the waiter made tea, there is a fire under the teapot for a long time to boil hot, ate 2 hours d tea whenever to drink is hot, feel good. Shrimp dumplings are eaten so many times the most shrimp stuffed full of shan, the skin to wrap tightly d shrimp so will not be very thin, very tasty, rmb 33 although expensive but full of ingredients. The bun fish pastry is very tasty, very fluffy, the fish portion is ok, the bran is ordinary, the boat congee is very soft and delicious, the ingredients are a little different from the usual Hong Kong food, worth a try. #Mainland customs clearance #parent-child destination #travel #food #food

I had morning tea in Shenzhen on the weekend. I went to Fanlou in Huaqiangbei at 8:45 in the morning and saw dozens of people waiting outside the door for the teahouse to open at 9 o'clock. When the opening time came, everyone rushed into the teahouse. Fortunately, there were enough seats here, and it was not difficult to find a seat in the first round. The decoration of the teahouse was very retro in the style of Guangzhou Xiguan. The waiter quickly opened the tea for us🫖, the water was boiling and the tea was delicious. We ordered several dim sum, including the famous asparagus and shrimp dumplings🥟, crispy prawn and red rice sausage, emerald honey crispy noodles and Liwan boat porridge🍲. All the dim sum arrived hot and of high quality👍🏻. No wonder so many people came here early in the morning to enjoy a bowl or two😋. 📍1st Floor, No. 118 Zhenhua Road, Huaqiang North, Shenzhen (60 meters from Exit C of Huaqiang North Station, Metro Line 2) #Halloween2023 #ShenzhenFood #ShenzhenTour #Fanlou
