Tianjin TEDA: Keeping Up with Restaurants and Bars in the Area
By Margaux Schreurs , eChinacities.com

Nowhere in China, or probably the world, develops quicker than the special economic zones, and TEDA in Tianjin is definitely no exception. Since our last article, a whole range of new stuff has opened, especially for foreigners, as numbers of foreign workers employed and living in the area are steadily increasing.

Foreign Supermarkets

1) Times Grocery Store (泰晤士)
A good foreign supermarket that stocks both fresh and packaged produce from around the entire world, including a bunch of different types of cheeses, a good selection of fresh and decently priced herbs, a lot of coffee, tea and other breakfast items.

Food and Drink

1) Jacky’s Pub

Secondly, the food is good, arguably it is some of the best Western food in TEDA. There are also TVs for your favourite sports games, and there is a pool table. Jacky’s Pub is also children friendly, and a lot of families come here, especially around lunch time.

Getting There and Away

Instead of getting the train to Tianjin Station, TEDA is actually closer to Tanggu Station
(塘沽火车站) which is about an hour from Beijing South Station (北京南火车站) and less
than 20 minutes from Tianjin Station (天津火车站). Make sure you do book a few days in
advance, as weekends are busy and popular train times may be booked up.
