Dalian Must-Visit Spot! Mingji Grilled Fish at Zhongshan Square

Everyone! If you're traveling to Dalian, you absolutely have to try this, maybe even twice! 😭 I visited Mingji Grilled Fish at Zhongshan Square, and let me tell you, this is the real deal! 👍

📍 The ambiance is amazing!
The exterior is clean and inviting, and once you step inside, the high ceilings and stylish interior make it a perfect spot for a date. 💕 The staff are super friendly, making the dining experience even better!

🔥 The highlight is definitely the grilled fish!
Spicy, flavorful, and incredibly addictive, this Chinese-style grilled fish (kaoyu) is a must-try! We ordered a half-and-half option with two different sauces, and it was absolutely perfect for Korean taste buds—definitely a rice stealer! 🍚 The fish was so fresh, with no fishy smell, just pure deliciousness! (Dalian being a port city really shows its class! 😎)

🥟 Pro tip for the perfect combo!
* Since the grilled fish is spicy, I highly recommend ordering a mild soup, like clam soup, to balance it out. It's a popular choice!
* Don't miss out on side dishes like lamb skewers!

💰 Great value for money!
It's so delicious, and the price is super reasonable. Can you believe it only cost less than 20,000 KRW per person for a group of four?! It's the perfect place to enjoy a hearty and delicious meal while traveling. 😍
