Snap' Description
Ditch the high-priced tourist canal dining halls and follow the dense crowd of local residents into the aromatic lanes of the Xinyi Square Night Food Street. Tucked quietly parallel to a Grand Canal feeder river, this bustling neighborhood market lane comes alive every evening with rows of open-air charcoal grills, sizzling woks, and hot cumin skewer carts.

π Insider Tips
- β‘Order a traditional bowl of 'Grand Canal Spicy Clams' (Paolala) wok-fried with fresh garlic, local chili paste, and sweet rice wine vinegar.
- β‘This street is the absolute best area in the old district to experience authentic local nightlife and sample ultra-cheap fresh seasonal crayfish.
- β‘Look for the stall lines preparing 'Su-style Pan-Fried Juicy Buns' (Shengjian)βthe hot pork broth inside the buns pairs incredibly well with beer.
- β‘The market vendors don't fully initialize operations until after 6:30 PM; wear casual attire and prepare for a smoky, highly lively local food walk.
