3. Man Li Jiang Restaurant

£21Hot PotCourtyard

SaweizhenThe Fujiazhuang branch of Manlijiang Leisure Restaurant is located opposite to Fujiazhuang Park. There is nothing much to say about the environment. The decoration style is all Yunnan style. It uses a single small pot and cooks slowly and eats slowly. It is a good choice whether it is a gathering with friends or a dinner invitation, and the quality is quite distinctive.

Chewing the chicken, the skin is spicy and crispy, the chicken is tender and juicy... Various levels of taste appear in the mouth one after another.

桃子妖妖妖It is said that the average salary in Dalian is more than 7,000 yuan. Today, I believe it. For a buffet with an average salary of 330 yuan per person, you have to share a table. Do you believe it? My friend made an appointment for dinner at this five-star hotel with a good reputation. The meal started at 11:30 noon, and there were people queuing at 11:00. Fortunately, there were many of us and we called in advance to reserve a seat. I had high expectations before coming. After all, for a general buffet, 200 yuan per person is already quite good, and I don’t know how good the 330 yuan one will be. But after the meal started, I took the plate and turned around, thinking, that’s it? There are no special dishes, no special dishes, just an ordinary buffet. The expensiveness may be due to the location of the hotel. Such an expensive restaurant is actually full of people. I saw people sharing seats with my own eyes. How strong do you think the consumption power of Dalian people is? Let’s talk about the shortcomings first. First, the buffet is managed well. I paid the price, but I still have to queue up to eat roasted lamb legs and sashimi. I am also drunk. Second, the dishes are placed in a scattered manner, not particularly regular. It is troublesome to find them if you come here for the first time. Third, there are fewer types of alcoholic beverages, and there is not much room for choice. There are also advantages. First, it is quite generous. There is no time limit for buffets, and there is no time limit for free parking in the underground parking lot after eating buffets. If there is a little bit of food left, they will not chase and fine (but still remind everyone to save food). Second, the service is good. Whether it is cleaning the restaurant, clearing the plates, or preparing meals, they are all relatively polite. Third, the environment is good, there is an open-air yard, you can go out for a breath of fresh air, and since there is no time limit for his family, you can come back to continue eating when you are tired. Another advantage is that this yard has only one door, so you can let the children go out to play by themselves, and just watch through the floor-to-ceiling glass, and they will not run away. One thing to remind you is that there are two entrances to their underground parking lot, which are relatively close. One is to go down directly, and the other is to turn left and then go in. Remember to go to the parking lot on the left to find the hotel lobby. The one on the right is for delivery, and there is no place to park. Overall, it's okay, you can experience it, but the price-performance ratio is average. After all, the buffet costs more than 300 yuan per person, and they don't even provide crabs.

颢文007A nanny-level guide for Dalian for three days and two nights! DAY1 Dalian Forest Zoo-Best observation point of the cross-sea bridge-Silver Beach-Xinghai Square Music Fountain-Light show of the cross-sea bridge 📍Dalian Forest Zoo can be ranked in the top three in the country. It has a large area and many kinds of animals. Basically, you can see all the animals that can be named. The ticket price of 120r is too cost-effective compared to the ticket price of 300+ in Guangzhou Chimelong Safari Park! There is also an amusement park inside, and the prices of food and beverage are acceptable. Tips: Cut some carrot strips in advance to feed the animals. Enter from the south gate and exit from the north gate, and take a shuttle bus to continue strolling on Binhai Road. 📍The best observation point of the cross-sea bridge is just opposite the south gate of the forest zoo. You can go there to check in and take pictures. The scenery is still good. 📍Continue to walk east along Binhai Road, and you can reach Silver Beach in 10 minutes. It is known as the Chinese Kamakura. The sea water is clean, there is no cross-sea bridge blocking the view, and it is very photogenic. 🦀For dinner, choose the Haiwei Zhengxian Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Hotpot near Xinghai Square. This restaurant is included in the bi-food list, and its main dish is Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. The old soup made in advance with old chicken, old duck, pork bones, and beef bones is rich and thick, and fresh sea cucumbers, abalones, and fish maws are added. The sea cucumber has a chewy texture and breaks when bitten. The abalone has a fresh taste and is good for beauty. They are all tonic ingredients. The oysters are Changhai oysters, which are super large and smooth in the mouth. The juice bursts directly when bitten. The hot pot slices, hot pot scallops, and hot pot prawns are also fresh and delicious. 📍After dinner, return to Xinghai Square. You can watch the music fountain at 19:30, and the light show of the cross-sea bridge at 20:30 and 21:30, which is still very shocking. Stay at the landmark hotel Castle Hotel in Dalian or the B&B near Xinghai Square at night. DAY2 Laohutan Ocean Park-Pinhailou-Fisherman's Wharf-Lingjiao Bay-Binhai Road-Golden Splendor-Venice Water City 📍After getting up in the morning and having breakfast, go to Laohutan Ocean Park, where you can see various marine animals and some animal performances. The Polar Pavilion has polar bears, beluga whales, sea lions, and seals. 🦀After Laohutan, you can go to the nearby Fisherman's Wharf Pinhailou to taste the fresh Dalian seafood. You can sit on the terrace while eating and enjoy the sea view. Scallops, sea urchins, oysters, and seafood rice are freshly caught and eaten. 🏖️After dinner, go to Lingjiao Bay to see the Fisherman's Wharf opposite. It's a different view. Bring a camera with a telephoto lens to take pictures of the feeling of a European town. 🦞For dinner, go to the must-eat restaurant Jinbihuihuang to experience Dalian's seafood barbecue. 📍At night, take a look at the music fountain in Donggang and take a gondola cruise to the nearby Venice Water City. DAY3 Gangdong Fifth Street-Rifeng Garden-Nanshan Style Street-Kanbei Cabin 📍After getting up in the morning and having breakfast, go to Gangdong Fifth Street, the most popular check-in spot in Dalian. Take a look at the road leading to the sea and encounter a cruise ship passing by. It feels very healing. With a telephoto lens, you can take pictures with a European feel. 🦀For lunch, choose Rifeng Garden nearby to taste the taste of the only restaurant in Dalian selected in "A Bite of China". Sea sausage dumplings are the main dish in the store

9. 梦山水日本烧肉(五四广场店)

红妆人NefelibataWhen eating beef ribs, you can pair them with mustard or choose a red wine made from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. Fry the beef ribs until both sides are golden brown and cooked. After serving, you can add a little sauce, which is especially delicious!
