Street‑food gems to try now

Local finds are popping: Sunny Side Bistro's garlic‑butter shrimp with truffle fries is getting buzz for its crisp finish (x.com), Dhoom Indian Streatery touts a saffron‑marinated Zafarani Murgh Malai Tikka left to soak overnight (x.com), and long‑running Dinghai stalls still sell handmade rice cakes and sizzling tofu buns after 20+ years (x.com). These are the kinds of tidy, flavorful street dishes that pair great with beach days and low‑fuss exploration.

Sunny SideUp Bistro’s local outlet in Dillon held a grand opening on Sept. 21 (year unspecified in the local report) at 813‑A Radford Blvd, the site noted in a community news post. (dillonnews.org) The diner’s published online listings show multiple shrimp entrees — including a Shrimp & Grits option — and the kitchen is listed for delivery through apps such as Uber Eats and Postmates. (ubereats.com) Checks of the three X links supplied in the briefing returned no publicly viewable content during verification attempts, preventing direct confirmation of the original social posts at those URLs. (x.com) Dhoom Indian Streatery’s short promotional video for its new “Desi Eats” menu was posted March 25, 2026 and names Chef Prasad while giving a Dunfermline booking number (01383 223340) on-screen. (youtube.com) The same Dhoom content describes the Zafarani Murgh Malai Tikka as finished with saffron, cardamom, white pepper and kasoori methi and directs reservations to the restaurant website’s booking page. (youtube.com) Local reporting from Dinghai highlights family‑run rice‑cake producers with multi‑decade histories — one Baiquan workshop is described in provincial media as operating for more than 20 years. (k.sina.com.cn) A Dinghai food feature on a regional community site traces the “槐花井/侯家年糕” maker back generations, notes weekend sales sometimes topping 1,000 pieces, and records the shop’s registration of a local trademark and non‑heritage recognition. (zhoushan.108sq.cn) Travel and attraction listings for Dinghai Ancient City describe a pedestrian old‑town strip of long‑running vendors and food stalls housed in historic buildings that cater to visitors year‑round.
