青樓中式餐酒館

A Chinese-style restaurant and wine bar near the end of Raohe Street 🥢

Everything on the menu is rich in flavor, but not overwhelmingly salty; the dishes are quite delicious. The three ways of preparing Peking duck must be reserved in advance. The stinky tofu and prawn balls are highly recommended. Although it’s stinky tofu, it tastes more like firm bean curd, with a chewy texture. It pairs well with minced pork and celery, making it an excellent snack with drinks. The Sichuan-style spicy prawn balls are indeed quite large, fried and then stir-fried, with a mild sweetness and spiciness that is very flavorful—so good! 🍻 The alcoholic beverages come in special teacups, which are both photogenic and fun.

I was pleasantly surprised to be upgraded to a small private room, making the dining experience very comfortable. You don’t have to worry about being too loud and disturbing other tables. There's a large private room next door that can do karaoke, and the restaurant plays classic Chinese songs that create a romantic atmosphere. The service from the staff is good, making it highly recommended for group gatherings.
