QiQiHaEr, the "Barbecue Capital", has these must-try delicacies

Qi Qi Ha Er, a city in northeast China, is often overlooked in many aspects. When it comes to food, people from the northeast immediately distance themselves from it and say nothing. "Qi Shi Kao Rou (Grilled Meat in Qi City)!" In a place filled with grilled meat in the northeast, it's painful for food lovers to ignore the fact that Qi Qi Ha Er has achieved such a position.

Jin Sanshun Korean Charcoal BBQ Restaurant

Specialty: Korean BBQ cuisine. A very popular restaurant, ranked number one for BBQ. It appears that there are hundreds of tables, all occupied. It is said that the wait time can be very long, but after the peak dining hours, the wait time is not too bad. After trying it, I understand that this restaurant truly lives up to its reputation. The taste is excellent and the prices are reasonable. Highly recommended!

Baokun BBQ

The barbecue in Qiqihar is very famous, and Baokun BBQ is one of the older establishments. Nowadays, many barbecues are somewhat similar to Korean BBQ, but this place still offers authentic Qiqihar barbecue. The meat is marinated very traditionally. The prices are also not expensive, making it very worth a visit.

Bu Kui Cheap Restaurant

A famous old restaurant in Qiqihar, known for its roasted chicken racks. Although a new branch has opened, the old one remains the most popular. Visitors to Qiqihar, besides the must-eat barbecue, must visit this old and renowned 'fly restaurant'. The old restaurant is located in a small alley next to the Insurance Building opposite the Zhong Market in Longsha District. Just keep walking forward, it's on the first floor of a residential building, and it's quite easy to find. When the restaurant is crowded, you might need to queue, but the dining environment inside is really quite average and doesn't look very hygienic. Their chicken racks, beef skewers, stone eggs, and squid are all very delicious.

Twelve Loyal Hand-Pulled Noodles

30 years ago, a Northwestern-style hand-pulled noodle shop opened next to the No. 12 Middle School in Qiqihar City, called Twelve Middle School Hand-Pulled Noodles. The prices were cheap and the taste was great, attracting many repeat customers. It is said that the original name included the character for 'middle' (as in middle school), but the school had an issue with it, so the name was changed to include the character for 'loyal' instead. Although the No. 12 Middle School no longer exists, Twelve Loyal Hand-Pulled Noodles is still around and doing even better.
