If you want Chinese cuisine and you are in Turin, we leave you a small handbook to consult on the fly from your smartphone!
Very often, if you are in a foreign city, you are hungry and you don't know any place, you can just look for a Chinese restaurant to let you pass.
In Turin you will have much more than a Chinese restaurant to make tasteful experiences, creative or traditional. But always of excellent quality.
Here's where to go
Zheng Yang via Principi D’Acaja 61
It is among the first Chinese restaurants that have opened in Turin. The Ling family inaugurated the first restaurant (in Corso Racconigi) in 1981 and Zheng Yang in 1986.
Making a quick calculation the Ling family, with Piero, Silvia and Paola, have been delighting the palates of the Turinese for about 38 years. Not a few. Super attentive to the ingredients, to the preparation of dishes, ancient recipes interpreted in a modern key. The beauty of Zheng Yang is that when you return to taste Silvia's cuisine you have the opportunity to taste new dishes, alongside the traditional ones. Rice noodles with fermented rice and vegetables, shrimp and lemongrass skewers, shrimp fritters in spicy sauce, braised ravioli with spiced pork and lemongrass-flavored ravioli. And we could go on and on with combinations from the menu. For dessert don't forget to order the black sesame cream pancakes. Be careful because they create a serious addiction.
The Great Wall corso Emilia 2
Like the trattoria Mei Shi Mei Ke, the Great Wall is also frequented by Chinese. It was discovered by the inhabitants of Turin a few years ago when they began to come to eat the typical Chinese cuisine, with some more extreme dishes, such as chicken, duck, chicken, pork and beef offal. We have known them for their fabulous tagliatelle in broth with beef, the inevitable braised ravioli (among the best eaten in the city). Mention for the smoked duck and spicy snails.
Oh Crispa! Via Belfiore 16 / bis
Tina Dai entered the heart of Turin. Here they come for Chinese crêpes, fragrant and very fragrant (unique, with truly original ingredients), for ravioli stuffed with broth and for crystal ones, stuffed with vegetables or prawns depending on the recipe proposed. In the heart of San Salvario "Oh Crispa!" Has conquered everyone, young and old. It's easy to pass by here and find the queue outside. Do not miss the noodles in broth with meat and vegetables. Delicious is an understatement.
Mei Shi Mei Ke, Via Cibrario 3
An authentic Chinese trattoria, frequented mostly by Chinese. Upon entering you are catapulted into Beijing and in fact here you come to taste Lu ravioli, whether steamed or braised. Very special. Simple environment, but excellent Chinese cuisine.
Gastronomy Chinese cuisine via Madama Cristina 113 / E
A small window, which is hardly noticeable at the passage. But often to make good discoveries we must venture, overcome indifference and taste. We liked this small gastronomy very much, not too many paper dishes, but really well cooked, some original and never tasted like steamed garlic bread, super soft and tasty, a portion is enough for 2-3 people.
For those with extreme tastes and loves offal to taste the ears of pork in soy sauce, salad of veal and coriander nerves. Then a whole series of Baozi stuffed with pork or veal and vegetables.
