1. Try a traditional Tianjin breakfast
A day in Tianjin wouldn't be complete without jianbing guozi. Start your morning with this delicious pancake wrapped around a Tianjin-style crispy fritter, known as guobi'er in the local dialect.
To make a jianbing, a paste of mixed grains is first spread on a hotplate to form a pancake, then topped with chopped green onions, pickles and the magic ingredient — Tianjin crisp fritter — before being wrapped up and cut in half. The outcome is the perfect texture – soft on the outside, crispy inside.
Aside from jianbing, Tianjin also offers other morning delicacies such as gabacai (savory crispy pancake soup) and laodoufu (tofu pudding).
