The Chinese Cuisine Collection in Zone B

The Chinese Cuisine Collection is located in a gray two-story building on the west side of the Gourmet Plaza. Visitors here can find dishes from all 33 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities in China. As the food is cheap here, this is the best stop for the budget-conscious consumer.

The first floor of the building serves dishes from the western area of China, such as Lanzhou hand-pulled beef noodles and Xinjiang cuisine. Gourmet dishes from other provinces can be found on the west side of the first and second floors.

Chinese fast food in Zone C

Zone C is mainly home to foreign pavilions; however, there are some excellent Chinese fast food restaurants in this area as well. Uncle Fast Food, King Roast Duck and Cang Lang Ting restaurants can all be found here. The cold noodles with sesame sauce offered by Cang Lang Ting is popular with visitors; this dish is both delicious and inexpensive.

Puxi fast food

There are only two zones in the Puxi area, so the number of visitors is relatively small. The restaurants in the Puxi area mainly serve fast food. Lihua Fast Food, Kungfu, Wu Fang Zhai, and Yonho Soybean are all located here. Wu Fang Zhai's rice dumplings are the cheapest food in the entire Park; you can buy these gems for the unprincely sum of six yuan ($.88).
