Guangxi-Style BBQ in Shenzhen: Unique Grilled Beef Skewers & Sweet-and-Sour Noodles

As someone from Guangdong, I always assumed that BBQ across China was pretty much the same, with the main differences being whether it was spicy and what ingredients were used. But my recent visit to this Guangxi-style BBQ restaurant completely changed my mind and opened my eyes to a whole new world of regional flavors.

Wu Zhuang Jiangsu & Zhejiang Cuisine at Yitian Holiday Plaza Pingshan, Shenzhen

To be honest, I rarely come to Pingshan. Most of the time, I only come here when my friends bring me, mainly because it’s quite far from the central areas of Shenzhen. Today was no exception—I came here because my bestie brought me along.

Yudu Laowei Seafood Noodles at Zhuoyue Center: A Review of the New Noodle Shop

There’s a new noodle shop on B2 of One Avenue ! When I first noticed the restaurant, I saw “Michelin” featured prominently in its advertising. To be honest, I initially assumed it was just a marketing gimmick. But I later heard that the restaurant has actually received Michelin recognition in Shanghai, which made me curious to see whether it could still live up to that reputation after coming to Guangdong.

Good Dessert Spot in Huaqiangbei: Coconut Qing Buliang & Black Sesame Soup Review

Cheryl Kong | 2026-09-13

Today, I revisited this dessert shop for the second time, and it was just as good as I remembered. It isn’t particularly outstanding compared with some of the more famous dessert shops in Shenzhen, but the desserts are consistently good, and I still think it’s worth a try.

🏆 Coconut Ice “Qing Buliang” Deluxe Bowl

The toppings are generous and plentiful, including watermelon 🍉, mango, coconut crisps, grass jelly, and dried red dates.

Every spoonful has something different to enjoy. Once all the ingredients are mixed together, the flavors complement each other nicely, while the combination of crunchy, chewy, soft, and refreshing textures makes the dessert so satisfying.

🏆 Black Sesame Soup with Glutinous Rice Balls

f you prefer something warm, they also offer hot desserts that are especially comforting in cooler weather. Black sesame soup (芝麻糊) is a traditional Chinese dessert that has been enjoyed for generations. I’m not sure how common this type of dessert is outside China, so if you’re curious to try a traditional Chinese sweet, this could be a good one to start with.

This black sesame soup isn’t overly sweet and even has a slightly bitter taste, which I actually enjoyed. Traditionally, black sesame soup is usually made sweeter, so this version was a little different from what I might normally expect. It has a natural, mellow sesame aroma and a smooth, silky texture. If you prefer desserts that aren’t loaded with sugar, this is a good option to consider.

📚Overall Experience

I think this is a dessert shop worth returning to. The desserts are consistently good, and the spacious, comfortable environment makes it a pleasant place to sit and relax.

Since the shop is located inside a shopping mall, it’s also a convenient place to take a break after exploring Huaqiangbei. It may not be the most memorable dessert shop in Shenzhen, but if you happen to be in the area, I think it’s definitely worth trying.
