I have been to Datong many times, and every time I have to eat knife-cut noodles. This Dongfang is a chain store with many branches. Basically, it is fast food, tastes good, and comes with braised eggs, meatballs, and dried tofu. You can add coriander, chopped green onions, chopped chives, etc. by yourself, and the noodle soup is also free.

The traditional knife-cut noodles are really delicious. The noodles are thick and chewy, and the texture is what you want to eat. The braised pork chunks are super big, and the meat is solid and satisfying to eat. The soup is quite flavorful, and it is the kind that northerners love.

This is the first small restaurant I ate at when I came to Datong. I searched online and found that this one was the most popular, so I came here! Don’t be fooled by its small appearance from the outside, but it is packed with customers! Everyone loves this place!

This is a chain of knife-cut noodles that is very popular among locals. It serves noodles for a long time and is very crowded during mealtimes. The noodles are very good, with chewy texture and tender pork. The fat is a bit heavy, but it tastes good when paired with Shanxi specialty vinegar. The price is also cheap, and you can eat a lot for only about 10 yuan per person. Drinking a bowl of noodle soup after eating is the essence of knife-cut noodles. I love the authentic noodle restaurants in Datong!

A fast food chain of slicing noodles restaurant. There are many people eating in the restaurant, and the queue is very long. Slicing noodles is a must-order dish in his restaurant, and it has a very good reputation. Traditional pork noodles, many people come here to eat. There are also several kinds of noodles. There are also many side dishes with slicing noodles, braised eggs, dried tofu, and meat are all delicious. There is also free noodle soup. Because there are so many people, the environment is noisy and it is not easy to find a seat.

You must try it when you come to Datong! It is one of the five major noodles in China, along with Beijing's fried noodles, Henan's stewed noodles, Hubei's hot dry noodles, and Sichuan's dandan noodles. It is well-known as one of the most representative business cards of Shanxi cuisine! Super delicious! I'm crazy about Dongfang Shaved Noodles! And it's very cost-effective!

The last stop in Datong was Dongfang Shaved Noodles, my wife's favorite! You can't eat this flavor outside Datong. I didn't hear any criticism from the locals about this fast food chain, all of them praised it, it's really delicious.
