Qingdao’s Huangdao Kaifaqu celebrated the grand opening of its first McDonald’s fast food restaurant on Saturday, May 12th, 2012. A Chinese actor playing Ronald McDonald lead the festivities with a rap in Chinese prior to the traditional ribbon cutting ceremony.

The new Huangdao Kaifaqu McDonald’s is located on Xiang Jiang Road inside the old Liqun Department Store, not to be confused with the new Liqun Department Store directly across the street.

Finally, folks on this side of the Jiaozhou Bay can have a Big Mac attack without traversing the marathon length bridge or undersea tunnel that connects Qingdao proper with Huangdao Kaifaqu Development Zone.
