Wutang Shacha Noodles
×Shacha Noodles
Why you must eat itA popular shacha-noodle shop by Bashi market, with a long line from opening through midday. The broth layers shacha paste with peanut, dried shrimp and a big-bone stock — rich, yet light on the finish. Its signatures are carefully cleaned offal like pig heart and kidney, free of any off-note and keeping a crisp bite. Point to your toppings and the staff blanch them onto the noodles. Among Xiamen's shacha noodles this runs to the rich side, and many drink it to the bottom.
A long-running shacha name around Minzu and Dayuan Roads, known even to locals as a bowl worth queuing for. Sitting close to Bashi's seafood supply, it has a reputation for fresh toppings. Shacha noodles are almost a staple breakfast and lunch in Xiamen, and each shop's broth richness is its character. As a starting point for the market walk, slurp a bowl here first, then head into Bashi, and you catch the rhythm of the city's eating.
