Sanmen Seafood has always been the protagonist. If you want to taste delicious seafood, it is recommended to consult a local person or take a look at the following guide. Many of them are famous restaurants in the local area with good prices and are suitable for everyone to eat.
Where is the best place to eat Sanmen seafood
① Sanmen downtown
New Dahua Hotel
Address: General Chamber of Commerce Building, No. 20, wutong Road, Haiyou Town, Sanmen County, Taizhou.
Local people in Sanmen also choose to hold weddings and banquets here, and business is so good during festivals that it's too late to turn the tables..
Upon entering, there is a seafood table where old diners can easily find out which seafood of the best quality is available that day with just a glance.
.When a large number of green crabs are on the market, locals will come to New Dahua to order a bowl of steamed fragrant glutinous crabs. The unique sweetness of the plump Sanmen green crabs is infused with the fragrance of glutinous rice, which is the best time for Sanmen people's appetite in a year!
!Green Crab Braised Bean Noodles is also a signature dish of New Dahua. The bean noodles next to the pavilion, paired with seasonal green crabs, are two seemingly "opposite" ingredients that compete, creating a truly "rare mountain and sea flavor"!
Yangji Seafood Restaurant
Address: At the entrance of Saigete Community, Haiyou Street, Sanmen County, Taizhou City
Yangji is one of the hottest seafood restaurants in Sanmen now. It is not an exaggeration to say that every meal is packed with diners.
The dishes are large and the seafood is fresh. A per capita consumption of 100 yuan is enough for you to order a large table of seafood.
. Their dishes are usually ordered with their eyes closed without making mistakes. Three fresh bean noodles, braised squid, hand peeled lobster, and fresh mixed fish are all signature dishes that have been tested and tasted by foodies for a long time. If we only have one meal at Sanmen, I think coming to Yangji is enough.Xiaobing Kitchen
Address: near No. 106 Houyangchen Road, Sanmen County, Taizhou City
Xiaobing Kitchen is also a restaurant that is currently booming in Sanmen, and can be considered a "new seafood restaurant". Their home is not big, it seems to be a converted residential area, but there are many locals and returning customers, so they often have to queue up. The local seafood cooking methods in Sanmen are generally not complicated, and the most common ones are steaming and scallion oil. The cooking method in Xiaobing Kitchen is very innovative. Like soup snails, chopped pepper and opium fish heads, pickled vegetables and mashed potatoes, and clay pot pumpkins, these are either not cooked in this way or cannot be eaten in the same way in Sanmen. Their prices are a bit expensive, around 130-140 yuan per person.
And everyone generally says that the service attitude of the shop is a bit unresponsive, a bit like "Shunde Niu Zhan", but it's still worth a visit for the delicious food.
Rongyao Sheng Noodle Shop
Address: No. 65 Shangyang Road, Haiyou Street, Sanmen County, Taizhou City
Noodle skin is a unique staple food in Sanmen, which can be simply understood as thick noodles.
The soup base is the essence and soul of the noodle skin, and the broth cooked with seafood comes with the freshness of the ocean. It's hard to bear adding other seasonings to add unnecessary details..
This Rongyao Sheng Noodle Shop is the number one noodle shop in the hearts of many locals. The 20 yuan bowl of Three Fresh Noodles is filled with ingredients such as white shrimp and clams.
. The stir fry in the store is also well made, and the braised chicken feet that everyone recommends are crispy and tender, making people want to drink some wine.② Jiantiao Pier
Xinxing Hotel
Address: No. 18 Qinjiang Road, Sanmen County, Taizhou City
As mentioned earlier, after buying seafood, you can come to Xinxing Hotel for dinner. This is not only an old restaurant, but also one of the largest restaurants in Jiantiao Town.
Because Xinxing Restaurant is very close to the dock, the ingredients in the restaurant are all purchased by the owner himself from the dock. The ingredients are fresh enough and the dishes are already half delicious.
Their family's thick soup of catfish (a type of pufferfish) is the most famous and has earned the title of "Three Famous Dishes". If you want to eat it, you have to make a reservation in advance..
The meat of Ba fish is particularly fresh and tender, and the milky white soup takes a lot of effort to make. However, it is a bit expensive, weighing about 400-500 yuan per bowl. If you have the chance, you must try it.
Fishing Port Hotel
Address: No. 86 Qinjiang Road, Jiantiao Town, Sanmen County, Taizhou City
The Fishing Port Hotel is also located near the dock, with high popularity and fast turnover. It can also bring its own seafood for processing.
There is no clear price for the dishes in the store, and all the seafood is freshly made, all of which are fresh goods. What you eat is the freshness from the dock to the dining table.
Now is really a good time to eat seafood. Not only do green crabs only have crab roe, but razor clams are as thick as fingers. Tofu and fish are so fat and delicious that they look like chunks of meat. Seafood restaurants in the city really can't compare.
③ Snake Island
There are not many scenic spots in Sanmen, and 80% of tourists will stop by Snake Island. The most iconic scenery on the island is this island cave with "pits" viewed from the air.
The supporting facilities on the island are still very good, with fun, accommodation, and food, worth a visit.
Snake Island Chijilai
Address: Snake Island Phase IV Reclamation Area, Sanmen County, Taizhou City (formerly on the side of the water)
There are quite a few restaurants to choose from in the scenic area. The recommended Chijilai combines the form of a hotel and an affordable fresh food supermarket. They have their own 3000 acre * * * *, and the seafood pool in front of the restaurant looks like a small seafood market. Moreover, reliable first-hand seafood sources not only ensure fresh ingredients, but also maintain very reasonable prices in scenic areas. From crayfish and elephant clams to green mouthed mussels, they are all available and can be bought directly to take home when leaving the island.
Sanmen Yufang Seafood Stall
Address: 50 meters forward from Shepan Island Pier, Sanmen County, Taizhou City
Sanmen Yufang Seafood Stall is considered a large stall in the environment of Shepan Island. Although it is located next to the scenic area, the price is still good, with an average of 100 yuan per person to solve a meal.
Their family has a relatively complete variety of seafood. Many residents on the island raise seafood at home, so the freshness of their ingredients is quite guaranteed. Sanmen Small Seafood has a distinctive fresh and sweet taste. Moreover, the seafood recipe on Sanmen's side is relatively simple, and boiling water and scallion oil can enhance the flavor of the ingredients themselves.
Snake Island Resort Hotel Restaurant
Address: First Floor, Snake Island Resort Hotel, Huangnidong Village, Coastal Expressway, Sanmen County, Taizhou City
The restaurant in the hotel is actually priced around 100 yuan, similar to the seafood stalls on the island, but the environment is much better and more worry free, and there is less likely to be annoying situations such as shortages.
The restaurant at Snake Island Resort Hotel excels in fresh seafood, with a moderate taste, but the environment and service are also good. If you are concerned about the hygiene of the food stalls, you can definitely come to this restaurant.
Snake Island Seafood Street
Address: Yuguangqu Road, Snake Island, Sanmen County, Taizhou City
If you don't have a clear goal, just go to Yuguangqu Road on the island.
From the street to the end of the street, there are small seafood restaurants here, and the prices of small restaurants are almost the same. They do not cheat customers and have enough choices.
Recommended Snacks
Not to mention Sanmen, the entire Taizhou is a massive "snack empire". Although the types of snacks are somewhat similar to those in the surrounding areas of Wenling, Linhai, and Yuhuan, their taste is not inferior at all.
Wheat paste head, rice cake, top scholar cake, sugar rolled sesame cake, Songhua cake... Just the different ways of eating glutinous rice can make a pair of hands.
① Bean noodles
The "bean noodles" referred to by the three sects are commonly known as sweet potato fans. Due to the scarcity of grain crops in Taizhou, soybean flour is also consumed as a staple food.
Sanmen people really like to make dishes with bean flour and other seafood together. Stir fried, can be made into green crab bean noodles, sand garlic bean noodles; Hot blanching can also be used to make soup bean flour.
Sante Fishing Village
Address: Baojia Village, Chengguan Town, Sanmen County, Taizhou City (adjacent to Qimen Pond)
Sante Fishing Village is a comprehensive vacation farmhouse located in Sanmen, providing food, accommodation, and entertainment. Their fishing village restaurant still won an award at the first Zhejiang Rural Food Festival, including a second prize for green crab and bean noodles.
In addition to green crab and bean noodles, the products of boiling fish slices and Songhua cakes from Sante Fishing Village are also very good.
However, because bean noodles are very common in Sanmen and can be found in almost every restaurant, if you want to visit, you can still go to this restaurant and have some.
In other parts of Taizhou, it is called a pancake tube or wheat oil, while in Sanmen it is called Maijiao.
Thin skin materials are the reason why everyone loves wheat coke. Compared to other places in Taizhou, the local recipe in Sanmen includes some small seafood in the filling, and wheat coke is definitely present on important occasions such as festivals and holidays.
.Home style Maijiao

Sanmen's wheat cakes also come in two types: salty and sweet. The sweet ones are added with sesame seaweed, which looks good and naturally increases appetite; Salty ones can be added with meat filling, dried sesame seeds, chopped green onions, eggs, and shrimp skin, so they are also called "five spice wheat cakes", which are more fragrant when eaten hot.
Sha Liu Mai Bing

This family's Mai Bing is well-known far and wide for its toughness. It is not particularly soft, but for the satisfaction of chewing.
The vegetarian filled wheat cake contains pumpkin, potatoes, scallions, and shrimp. It has a fragrant and glutinous taste with the freshness of shrimp skin, which should be appetizing for the vast majority of people.
Meat filled wheat cakes are more familiar and not much different from wheat cakes from other places in Taizhou before. They are as thin as a piece of paper and have a visible layer of meat filling wrapped around them. Meat lovers should not miss them!
Sanmen Yuanxiao (Filled round balls made of glutinous rice-flour for Lantern Festival) is usually served with wheat coke at noon and Zaosun at night, and it should be better than anyone who cooks it. Zaosun has a high "status"~
Zaosun is mainly made of Rice noodles, potato flour or lotus root flour. In particular, the Zaosun in Sanmen is salty and sweet, and the sweet ones are flavored with small rice dumpling and apples.

. Every morning, there are long lines of office workers waiting for freshly baked pancakes in the surrounding area, and business is doing so well.In addition to oil pancakes, the No.1 Bakery actually sells three classic breakfasts, and the flavors made with bean flour and fermented bean paste are also very authentic.. Especially the fermented soup, which contains vegetables and seasonal seafood, warms my stomach with the soup water in the morning, making it particularly smooth. In addition to indulging in seafood, there are also many scenic views to enjoy at Sanmen.
Mature Snake Island, Mubei Beach, Huaqiao Town, Dongping Ancient Village, with few tourists, suitable for a weekend of flying;

Recently, the "sea forest" and shallow mudflat in Taotou Village, which have become popular, can easily shoot large wild areas.
Being able to stroll and eat, the three reasons that attract me are just having green crabs!
