Good and affordable restaurants and small shops in Shenzhen

Let's embark on a delicious and affordable food hunting trip together!

Hao Hao Wei Noodle House

I love the beef brisket lo mein here the most. The beef brisket is not only well-seasoned and cooked to perfection, but also tender without being mushy! The noodles are handmade, refreshing and very chewy. Additionally, I personally think the wontons with thin skin and delicious filling are also very good, with excellent meat texture.

Xiaolongfeng Restaurant

However, when it comes to 'delicious and affordable,' I think it must be 'Xiaolongfeng Restaurant.' This tea restaurant, hidden in the Xinan area of Bao'an District, may not be as famous as the tea restaurants near the two ports, but its nostalgic and Hong Kong-style atmosphere is no less than theirs. On cold days, having a cup of authentic black and white milk tea at Xiaolongfeng, along with a carefully cooked tofu and roasted pork rice, is simply the greatest romance for men!

Love of the Sea Sushi

Motorola Roll, Durian Cheese Roll, Rainbow Roll, Salmon Sashimi, Mango Flower Love, Pumpkin Tart, Ramune Soda... The variety at Love of the Sea Sushi is truly comparable to some large Japanese sushi restaurants!

Grandma's Home

First and foremost, the famous 'Grandma's Home'! The phrase 'Grandma is calling you to eat' has touched the hearts of many. Grandma's Home is truly a restaurant with an excellent cost-performance ratio. Not only is the environment elegant and artistic, but the food is also delicious and generously portioned.

Nanjing Impressions

"Nanjing Impressions". This restaurant, full of Nanking flavor, also attracts people's attention with its decoration. My favorite here is the Meiling Congee, made from ingredients such as soy milk, glutinous rice, japonica rice, yam, lily, goji berries, and rock sugar. It is both light and simple, yet rich in nutrition, making it very suitable for all the beautiful ladies. There are also signature dishes like salted duck, roasted duck buns, and Yangchun noodles... These are must-try dishes.

Su Si Huang

Even the simple soup at Su Si Huang can bring the taste of home. The soup is not just any ordinary soup; it is made by slow-cooking pork bones for several hours, resulting in a very fresh and sweet flavor! My favorite is the secret recipe flame-grilled char siu, which is prepared in a very special way. The char siu is sweet but not greasy, and there are soybeans stuck to the bottom, which I always carefully eat one by one!

Xiaomuwu Rice Hotel

It is said that the dishes in this shop are very authentic, with a taste very similar to that of Yanbian in Northeast China. It is quite famous in Yanbian. Haha, there are many colleagues from Northeast China in the Shenzhen company, and finally, we can enjoy very authentic Korean cuisine!

Bao Shi Mixed Delicacies Restaurant

Double-layer cheese lamb burger, the lamb is thick and solid, just eating that layer of lamb alone is already filling. The strong lamb flavor, combined perfectly with cheese and butter on this burger, how can one describe it as anything less than perfect!

Saizeriya

Many people refer to it as a low-end version of Pizza Hut, but I think Saizeriya's other offerings, apart from pizza, are much tastier than Pizza Hut's. The Italian seafood baked pasta, along with a steak, has become my standard order every time I visit Saizeriya. The average cost is only 30-40 yuan per person, and you can eat very satisfyingly!

Xinheli Hakka Restaurant

A portion of rice noodle rolls and a bowl of soy milk are the standard at this 'Xinheli Hakka Restaurant'. Strictly speaking, this rice noodle roll shop doesn't have a name; it just borrows the stall at the entrance of this night market shop. The taste of the rice noodle rolls here is different from the thin-skinned style emphasized in the Guangzhou area; they are made thicker. Some people might find them not smooth enough (opinions vary). However, the texture is very similar to the rice noodle rolls I had earlier in the Huizhou area of Guangdong, which has a very 'homey' taste. This is also the reason why I recommend it.
