Zhenbutong (Changchun Main Branch)
真不同·百年吉菜老店（长春总店）
A century-old Jilin cuisine restaurant in Changchun, famous for its "Three Treasures": flavored pork stomach, shredded chicken rolls, and meat menzi, opening at 8:00 AM and offering affordable prices.
The main branch is located at the intersection of Yongchun Road and Sima Road in Nanguan District. The brand is often said to have been founded in 1896, though other accounts trace its origins to a cured meat shop in the 1930s; it is recognized as a Jilin Time-Honored Brand. Its "Three Treasures" are flavored pork stomach, shredded chicken rolls, and meat menzi (savory starch jelly). Pan-fried tofu (guatadofu) and crispy chicken are also frequently ordered, with flavors leaning toward savory, rich, and heavy. The average cost is about CNY 64 per person. Reviews note that table-sharing is often necessary during lunch, and parking nearby is very difficult, so public transport is recommended. It is open daily from 8:00 to 21:00, making it also suitable for brunch.
