About this place

The Old Northern Restaurant (Lao Beifang Canguan) is where people from China’s northern provinces go to get a taste of home in Luohu district. Highly recommended are the jiucai hezi (thick pancakes filled with chives), yi gou chu (a large pan of green beans, pork ribs, potatoes and corn bread), liang cai (Chinese-style spicy salad) and goubao rou (sweet stir-fried pork in batter). A hearty meal for two here can be got for less than RMB100. The only downside is that the chefs can sometimes take the Northerners' love of salt to an extreme.
