Nanjing for first-time visitors

Best restaurants

Nine stops, meant to be used. The range runs from a cake and coffee counter at 195 碑亭巷 to a seafood kitchen at 1 升州路, a noodle shop at 56 莲池路, and a Chinese kitchen on the 4F food street in Terminal 1 at 禄口机场. Two names will look familiar to anyone who has eaten near a shopping district: Saizeriya and Pizza Hut. Both earn their place by being dependable at a fixed address. The rest are neighbourhood kitchens: Chinese cooking, seafood, fish and local dishes, pulled noodles. Each entry includes the name in characters for drivers and hours wherever known. Most kitchens here open at 10:00 or 11:00 and close at 22:00. This list is for travellers who would rather eat well than eat somewhere famous.
