Eating and drinking

For something upmarket, the eat-all-you-can buffet in the lobby of the
Wenquan Hotel
is a good deal, while foreign food can be sampled at the reasonable Japanese restaurant on the second floor of the
Changcheng Hotel
just north of Yu Shan on Wuyi Lu. More mainstream fare is available at the
Daguo Fandian,
near the
Nanyang
hotel on Hualin Lu, which has excellent-value sweet-and-sour spareribs, and seafood or vegetable hotpots; and either the
Shanghai
or
Fenglong
on Dong Jie have lower-floor dumpling canteens topped by good, mid-range restaurants.
Tea
is a huge institution in Fujian, worth trying at some point during your visit; the most famous variety,
Oolong
, is one of the few Chinese teas known by name in the West.
For
snacks
, the Wenquan Park area, on Wusi Lu, just north of Hu Dong Lu, is a pleasant place to sit and eat outdoors - vendors sometimes sell bagel-like "cut buns", stuffed with vegetables or a slice of spiced, steamed pork. Fuzhou also has plenty of international fast-food outlets; there's a
McDonald's
at the junction of Wusi Lu and Hualin Lu, and a
KFC
on Gutian Lu near Wu Shan. Other useful information
