If you have a chance to visit Tianjin, you should miss

Thanks for sharing, Cherry.

I ate Guifaxiang's fried dough twists when I was visiting my friends in Tianjin. It was delicious. But I did not eat Goubuli Stuffed buns. As you said, it was too expensive.

Chestnut roasted with sugar is my favorite. Unfortunately, I didn't find it last time.

Tea Soup sounds very good. How could he pour boiling water into a bowl? The "kettle" looks so big.
