If you have been to the Xinhai Bay in Dalian, I
think you will not miss this fabulous restaurant,
Zhonghai Mansion. Zhonghai Mansion is a renowned
seafood restaurant. Not only the specially made
seafood is tasteful, the nice environment is unforgetable.
Although it is a little bit expensive, it is worth
to have a try. Address: Xinhai Square Xinhai Bay

You may get to know that this restaurant serves
spicy food from its name. The Chinese Sichuan cuisine
is famous for its spicy food. Fortunately, we can
also taste the authentic Sichuan delicacies in Dalian.

or it is really difficult to get a seat in the restaurant.
