Next to Siwang Pavilion in the city centre, Yi Yuan has ample floor space for the biggest of banquets, and tables are plentiful – meaning customers often don't have to wait for a table. Better still, portions are generous and prices affordable. The authentic Yangzhou dim sum served at breakfast are particularly popular. Try the steamed dumplings with various fillings, and hand-shredded dried tofu dressed in shrimp roe soy sauce and sesame oil.
