How to discover local food when traveling to a place?

Every time you travel to a place, eating is definitely an important part. If you eat well, eat happily, eat satisfactorily, and eat happily, then the journey will be half complete. Usually, you have to look for a lot of special snacks, and you have to walk around the streets to find them. I usually look for them like this:

1. It has long been a well-known local delicacy. When I went to Lanzhou, I went to Ma Zilu Lanzhou Ramen for my first meal, but it was crowded. I looked for another ramen restaurant with a clean shop and not many people. The taste was really good. Beijing’s roast duck, Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia’s mutton skewers, Chongqing’s hot pot, Chengdu’s skewered Bobo chicken, Ningxia’s lamb, Xining’s mutton noodle soup, Xi’an’s roujiamo, Liuzhou snail noodles, Wuhan hot dry noodles and other local specialties, Definitely have to try it if you go.

2. When riding in the car, you can chat with the driver, he is usually very enthusiastic. When we went to Chishui, we wanted to eat fish in sour soup. The driver took us there. It tasted really good. 3. Find it yourself. In markets and streets, search by feeling. I had short noodles once in Zhongwei, Ningxia. The portion was generous and quite delicious. 4. Platform search. Nowadays, the Internet is convenient, food search, and map navigation are really convenient and fast.

5. Go to the vegetable market in each city to find the most authentic urban taste; you must not miss the big market in the countryside. It is said that the wet market has a strong atmosphere of human beings. Here you can see the most authentic living conditions of the local people, and you can also see many fresh categories you have never seen before, and you can also taste the most authentic local taste. I once saw peizi that I had never seen before in a market in Lanzhou. The wheat-like grain is the local food. I also bought cheap and delicious pasta in the market. It can be said that the wet market is really is a treasure trove to discover locals’ favorite snacks.

6. Use apps such as Dianping, TripAdvisor, Word of Mouth, and Meituan. It is said that the power of netizens is powerful. On these apps, netizens have summarized many popular and authentic shops. It can be used as a good reference. According to the recommendations of netizens, you can sometimes find special snacks, but this depends on your own judgment. Sometimes what everyone is flocking to may not necessarily suit your taste. 7. The special snacks in some places have long been famous. You can try them wherever you go. For example, stinky tofu in Changsha, mutton steamed buns in Xi'an, roast duck in Beijing, Goubuli in Tianjin, seafood in Qingdao, beef in Chaoshan, ramen in Lanzhou... These special snacks all have their own traffic, and you will definitely try them when you go there. As for taste, that's a matter of opinion.

8. Consult locals, taxi drivers and hotel front desks. As locals, they usually control the most down-to-earth and popular snack bars in the city. Their guidance is very valuable, and they are happy to recommend it to you. After all, they are also promoting their own city. I found the best Shacha noodles in Xiamen just by listening to the taxi driver’s introduction. In short, he is a foodie and always tries his best to find delicious food.
