This Old Place Cafe, (Walk up the main street from the waterfront until the first intersection - take the left and then the first right). This cafe, which is linked to the Hostel by the same name, offers a good range of Chinese traditional dishes, as well as some more Westernised versions (like Sweet & Sour Chicken without bones!). The staff are extremely attentive, lovely and go out of their way to make you comfortable and welcome. And interesting feature of this restaurant is the pond and washbasin between the bar and the bathrooms which is open to the sky - very unique and cool. �
Love Landscape Restaurant, Rongtan St. (betwixt the bus station and This Old Place). An interesting little place with a limited English menu, LLR has very few vegetable dishes, but quite a few beef, chicken, or pork dishes. What is memorable about this place, though, is twofold. Firstly, just in front of the restaurant on a little patio, the management keeps live animals for consumption, including, but not limited to, Li Jiang fish, quail, chickens, ducks, and bamboo rats. Secondly, try their Snake wine, which is sitting in a huge jug also on the front porch, for just 5 yuan/glass. �
7# Cafe, Old Street (Same street as TOP Cafe, just a little further towards the bus station). A lovely little place run by some very friendly staff, with good music playing, and heaters under the tables which are perfect when Xingping isn't being too kind weather-wise. The owners always brought out a game of Connect 4 to play while waiting for food, and it makes a nice cosy alternative to TOP Cafe down the road. The food is decent value and we ended up heading there three times during our stay. Food from 10 Yuan. �
