Food
Throughout history, Shenyang was successively governed by Han and Hui and Manchu.
This blend of cultures also influenced the local food. Mouthwatering Laobian
Dumplings (Jiaozi) at the Laobian Eating House (on Zhong Jie, close to the Imperial
Palace) and the traditional Laoshanji-Haicheng pies (Xianbing) are the most
famous local dishes. Close to the border with North Korea, Shenyang cuisine
has included numerous Korean dishes: Barbecued beef, cold noodles and kimchi
are served at the Meiahli Korean BBQ on Kunming Bei Jie off Zhongshan Lu with
reasonable prices of around RMB50 for two persons.
Western fast food:
The top hotels have very good western food: buffets, cafes and bakeries. American
fastfood chains have outlets in the downtown area as on Zhonghua Lu, Taiyuan
Jie and Zhong Jie. The Hongkong Delicious Food City on Qingnian Lu is a little
bit pricey but offers a large variety of food.

The Summer Palace (Xia gong) on Qingnian lu is possibly the biggest water activity centre in northern China, with a skating rink and bowling alleys.
