Qingdao's 10 Best Restaurants For Shandong Cuisine
The city of Qingdao, one of China’s major seaports, is famous for two things. Firstly its beer, which is made in the Tsingtao brewery, the city’s major tourist destination, found on a road where everything is shaped like beer bottles. Secondly, its seafood, caught fresh from the yellow sea and available across the city. Qingdao’s best restaurants combine these two things and offer much more, including stunning views and new dining experiences.

Blue Wave Gulf Restaurant
For equally stunning views, albeit a little closer to terra firma for those with less of a head for heights is the Blue Wave Gulf Restaurant, backing as it does onto the Taiping Bay. And with such close proximity to the beach comes incredibly fresh seafood of all kinds, fresh from the bay and cooked in countless styles by the Blue Wave Gulf chefs. All the most popular Cantonese and Sichuan plates are available from the ever-evolving menu, with Cantonese classics bird’s nest soup and shark fin soup always particularly popular, as are the often fiendishly hot spicier dishes.
