Chinese restaurants in Wǔhàn

  1. Máojiāwān

    Elderly Chinese will be horrified, but Wǔhàn's white-collar diners and lǎowài (foreigners) have few qualms being served by corpulent Red Guards scampering to and fro with peppery platters from Mao's home province of Húnán. The overall concept may be in bad taste, but the Máoshì Hóngshāoròu (毛氏红烧肉) - a tender pile of plump pork chunks - is succulent, the rice arrives by the steaming bucket load and it's undeniably fun. No English sign.

  2. Floating Restaurants

    You can try some of the popular local snacks, such as, fresh catfish and charcoal-grilled whole pigeons served with a sprinkling of chilli, on the floating restaurants at the end of Bayi Lu on the shore of Dōng Hú.

  3. Shouyi Garden Snack Street

    Innumerable, highly popular food outlets with cuisine from Húnán to Yúnnán and beyond. Purchase cards with credits from the booth and plunge in. It's south off Pengliuyang Lu.

  4. Xiǎo Bèiké

    Also called the Petite Coquille Restaurant and overseen by staff in purple tops, this stylish restaurant has melt-in-the-mouth méicài kòuròu (梅菜扣肉; stewed pork with preserved vegetables; Y25) and jiǔcài hézi (韭菜盒子; fried chive dumplings; Y18 a portion) plus loads of other tasty dishes. Try and grab an outside table. It's the yellow building on the corner of Dongting Jie and Cai'e Lu.
