Tangshan Banquet Food Hall
唐山宴
A trendy food landmark combining a Tangshan food culture museum with a food street, where you can sample the flavours of eastern Hebei in one stop.
Tangshan Banquet, formally the Tangshan Food Culture Museum, lies near Nanhu. Its building is a multi-storey courtyard complex in Republican-era style, housing dozens of long-established Tangshan brands and snack stalls. You can try chess-piece sesame flatbreads, honey malt candy, Wanlixiang braised chicken, gelao (a local savoury fried snack) and old-fashioned popsicles. The building also displays the history of Tangshan's food culture, old objects and scenes of local customs, and small performances such as Pingju opera and shadow puppetry are often staged. Entry is free and you pay only for food and drink. Crowds are heavy on public holidays, so it is best to visit at a quieter time.
Opening hours
About 10:00–21:00
