本溪是一座美麗的山城，城市周圍群山環(huán)繞，建筑多是依山而建，在東北廣袤的平原之上，這樣的山城別具風格。生活在山環(huán)水繞之中的本溪人，“靠山吃山，靠水吃水”，春有吃不盡的山野菜，秋有吃不盡的野味鮮魚，四季鮮味吃不敗。

本溪毗鄰省會沈陽，除了最出名的水洞和關門山紅葉，因為多民族混合聚居，在口味上，賦予了本溪飲食更加豐富多元的民族風味。

除了東北特色的燉菜、燒烤之外，本溪尤其以滿族、蒙古族、朝鮮族的美食最為突出：南芬冷水魚、桲欏餅、滿族火鍋、酸湯子、小市羊湯、烤虹鱒魚等招牌菜獨樹一幟。

本溪地質(zhì)優(yōu)越，水質(zhì)清冽，當?shù)靥禺a(chǎn)的龍山泉啤酒、桓仁冰酒、桓仁大米等更是來本溪一定要嘗的。

本溪美食，透著東北人的粗獷豪放，厚重的山與輕盈的水滋養(yǎng)出的食材、不同的文化碰撞之下散發(fā)的獨特味道，這舌尖的一縷鮮，讓許多人時時記掛著到山城走一遭。
