On the 55th and 56th floor of the Shangmao building, the rotating Yunzhong Xiaoya Restaurant presents an unbeatable bird’s eye view of the central district of Nanjing.
The menu consists mostly of Cantonese and Huaiyang style cuisine. A simple meal for two should cost about 100 to 200 yuan. On the other hand, somebody could just as easily spend over 200 yuan per person if they were in the mood for seafood or aiming to impress.
Seating on the 55th floor consists of a rotating ring of 2 and 4 seat tables set right next to the window. The 56th floor contains private rooms. As seating is limited on both floors, it is recommended that guests make a reservation in advance. English menus are not available.
The restaurant is on the very top.
Well-presented garlic pork.

Bubble tea, a drink containing milk-tea and gelatinous “bubbles”, can be found throughout Nanjing at street-side take-out vendors, restaurants of any price level, and even in convenience stores. It’s not uncommon to witness 2 or 3 different bubble tea vendors within shouting distance of each other each offering something slightly different. Despite the stiff competition it is clear that Duokeduo (多克多) maintains some of the most loyal customers of all. Customers patiently wait in long line-ups to pay twice the price of a normal take-out bubble tea. Many come for Duokeduo’s 7 yuan “Large Combo Bubble Tea” (全套奶茶, quántào nǎichá), which contains pudding, bubbles, small strips of chewy coconut and ice cream. Bubble teas are served in a variety of flavors such as papaya, original, strawberry and taro. It can be requested hot (热, rè) or cold (冷, lěng). The menu is in Chinese only.
Don’t worry, the line moves up fairly quickly.
Did You Know?
Bubble tea is also called “pearl milk tea” (珍珠奶茶, Zhēnzhū Nǎichá)
Duokeduo does not have a phone or an internet site and employees do not know the addresses of the other 4 Duokeduo locations in Nanjing. Why worry about attracting more business if there is already a long line of customers to serve?
How to Get There
Duokeduo is just around the corner from the south entrance to Lion’s Bridge (狮子桥, Shī ziqiáo). It is right next to the parking building and across the street from Yosemite (悠仙美地). Look for the red sign.
Swede and Kraut Restaurant
Swede and Kraut serves Western cuisine in a cozy community-like atmosphere. High quality pasta, pizza and German-style meat dishes can be found here. The bread is baked fresh and is also sold at Skyways Bakery nearby.
Prices are comparable to those of other authentic Western restaurants in Nanjing. Expect to pay 120 to 250 yuan for a meal for two not including alcohol.
How to Get There: Swede and Kraut is located in an alley (南秀村, nánxiùcūn)) one block north of Hankou Xi Lu (汉口西路, hànkǒu xī lù). It is just a little bit farther down the alley than Behind the Wall Cafe.
