Virginia Beach Food Guide 🦪

Spent a long weekend at VA Beach — though the weather was still a bit chilly by the coast 😂, so we basically ate and slept for three days! Surprisingly, the Chinese food and seafood there are absolutely top-notch — so delicious! 🍴😍 🦪🦞 Seafood 1️⃣ The Atlantic A seafood spot highly recommended on — and it surprisingly lived up to the hype! Besides raw oysters (a bit salty) and clams, their grilled oysters are a must-try! Topped with cheese, spinach, and bacon — savory, rich, and aromatic! Their specials are also worth trying — we ordered the spicy soft-shell crab and lobster pasta, both were fantastic! 🔥 2️⃣ CP Shuckers Cafe and Raw Bar Super casual and authentic American vibe 😂, with huge portions! Raw oysters are cheap (12 for $18), but not as cleanly prepared as the first place. Their mussels cooked with wine and garlic were simple yet delicious — not heavy at all! We also tried the fish & chips and crab cakes — fresh and full of natural seafood flavor. 🐟🍟 🍜🍱 Chinese Food 1️⃣ Judy’s Sichuan Not overly heavy or oily — perfectly balanced flavors! Must-orders: Dry-Braised Eggplant 🍆 — that sauce is absolutely divine! Dry-Fried Pork Intestine — cleaned thoroughly and packed with flavor. Dan Dan Noodles — rich sesame aroma. Saliva Chicken (made with boneless chicken thighs 😂) with authentic Sichuan seasoning. 2️⃣ Noodle Man A cozy spot specializing in Lanzhou Hand-Pulled Noodles! The broth is authentic, and the beef portions are generous. 🐄🍜 We also tried the Taiwanese tomato beef brisket noodles with pickled greens — delicious! They also offer Sichuan and Jiangzhe-style dim sum. 🥤 Bubble Tea 1️⃣ The Whale Tea Besides bubble tea, they serve adorable smiling egg waffles! 😊 The bubble tea is decent — not extraordinary but satisfying. #VirginiaBeachEats #SeafoodLovers #ChineseFood #BubbleTea #FoodieGuide 🍽️🌟
