Foodie tips
Get more out of every meal.
Autumn (October-November) is the best season for crab-roe dumplings and crab lion's head; book tables ahead.
Eat light before morning tea; three-diced buns and soup dumplings fill quickly.
Confirm the exact branch on Dianping because Gonghechun, Yechun and Huayuan have several outlets.
Cooking classes are not listed by a verified provider; check Trip.com or Klook for current Huaiyang cooking sessions.
