What started as a single small restaurant has grown into a national phenomenon. 'Waipo Jia' offers 'Grandma’s' style home-cooked meals in a stylish, often dimly lit, industrial-chic setting. It is famous for its consistent quality and low prices, making it a go-to for locals and tourists alike. The atmosphere is energetic and loud. Expert recommendation: You must try the 'Grandma’s Chicken' (Waipo Shen Xian Ji) and the 'Green Tea Roasted Chicken.' Pro tip: Like Xin Bai Lu, the queues are legendary. Try going for an early dinner around 4:30 PM to get seated immediately.
