Famous Local Food
Nanchang's eating opportunities cover quite a broad range, from local dumpling houses and spicy Hunanese restaurants, to uncomplicated, lightly sauced river food. For the best in this line, fresh fish, crayfish, snails, frogs, as well as vegetables, try the evening quick-fry wok stalls that set up along several streets parallel with the river and north of Zhongshan Lu; those on Xiangshan Bei Lu are particularly good. Other snacks to try are zongzi, light soups and a corn-and-soya bean "salad" with garlic dressing. The best western-style food is at the Gloria Plaza: breakfast, lunch and evening buffets.
