1. JIANBING (CHINESE CREPES):This is one Chinese most common street breakfast snack. I love its crispy nature, bold flavor and texture. It’s a made batter of wheat and grain flour, savory, umami flavors, eggs and other crisp textures. It’s a Northeast China Native dish.
It is prepared by thinly spreading the batter on the hotplate, placing the various toppings on the crunching batter and then another smaller sheet of crispy batter is placed on top. Finally, you fold the Jianbing up and serve.

2. CHINESE SESAME BALLS: This is a common breakfast dish in Guangdong and beyond. The vendors use sticky rice and sesame seeds coating. You may choose to use fillings of meat, bean paste or not use any fillings. The outer skin should be crispy regardless of whether it is filled or not.

3. STINKY TOFU: This is a fermented version of tofu that has a strong odor. Like most street foods, it is mostly found in lunch bars, night markets and roadside stand. It’s made from soybeans and is grey in color but as it ferments, white foam is formed which slowly changes its color. You can spice it up by adding garlic paste pepper and sesame oil.
