Lǎo Qiáo Xiǎochī

Guizhou


Unpretentious local restaurant with a picture menu for easier ordering. The steamed dumplings are good, and you can order noodle dishes with either rice or wheat noodles – try the speciality pickled pepper beef (特色泡椒牛肉, tèsè pàojiāo niúròu) or sour chilli minced pork (酸辣椒肉末, suān làjiāo ròumò). On the corner of Shuncheng Jie and Zhusheng Bridge
