All the four restaurants are in downtown area of Hankou. Take an opportunity to have a taste.
Wuhan can be called a melting pot that covers a wide range of restaurants from the luxurious hotels to the small stalls across the street. Although some stalls might not that hygeian or comfortable, it claims to be the best place to taste the authentic snacks of Wuhan. Hubu Lane is rather famous for its breakfast and Jiqing Street is widely known for its food at the night market. Therefore, do remember to spend some time checking out the stalls on Jianghan Yi Lu, east of Jianghan Road. What’s more, there are a number of Western-style cafe and cake shops along Jianghan Road and Yanjiang Road. If you want to buy some for your family or friends, you can choose spicy duck’s neck from Jingwu or Zhouheiya.
