Jinxin Rice Noodle Rolls
The most popular rice noodle roll shop in Shantou, bar none. This shop is located on Jinxin South Road. When I was a child, I would pass by it on my way to Shantou No. 1 High School, so I often visited. The beef rice noodle roll costs 8 yuan per piece, and with a bowl of watercress soup, it feels like reaching the pinnacle of life. The rice noodle rolls here not only have plump shrimp but also heaps of small oysters, real individual oysters, making it an incredibly satisfying meal!
