Mr.Jack replied:
The hotel is in Yalong Bay area and there are not many seafood restaurants in that area, except some hotels. To look for better place to have seafood, suggest you go to Dadonghai area. There is a food street called Shengli Road. There are many restaurants to tast seafood. It need about 40RMB from the hotel by taxi.
