Four Cities in China, Known as ‘World Food Capitals’: Fun and Delicious – Where to Go?
As the saying goes, 'food is the primary need of mankind,' and delicious food leaves a first impression on a city. When we discuss a city, we often first think of its local specialties. Especially with the development of tourism, whether the local food is delicious is one of the important factors that people consider when choosing a place to travel.
Today, we'd like to introduce four cities in China, which are called 'World Food Capitals.' Here, you can have fun and eat well. Welcome to experience them.
First, we'd like to introduce Chengdu. This city is very familiar to everyone. As a 'rising star' city in China, there are various introductions about it on the internet. Because so many Chinese people have gone to this city to 'check-in,' we can see various travel guides about it, detailing how the rankings of each shop are.
When you come to Chengdu, you must try the local specialties. They are very common on the streets and in alleys, and the taste is authentic. For example, here are Long Zhaoshou, Mapo Tofu, Guotie (pot stickers), and Kou Shui Gai, which will make you want to stay here.
Next, we'd like to introduce Guangdong. As the saying goes, 'Food is in Guangdong.' Besides its outstanding economic development, Guangdong's food is also renowned throughout China. Guangdong people are very meticulous when eating, so there are stricter requirements for chefs. Just the item of 'Dim Sum' can come up with all kinds of variations, such as here's the Loofeng Bao (sweet steamed buns) and Nao Mi Ji (sticky rice chicken), which are irresistible.
In addition, Guangdong has some other specialties, such as Shuang Pi Nai (double skin milk), which is an invention here, refreshing and not very filling, it's the best choice for dessert after a meal.
Macau is also a well-known food capital in China. Due to historical reasons, Macau is a city that integrates Chinese and Western cultures. This is reflected in its food. Macau's characteristic snacks are based on Cantonese cuisine, combined with the cuisines of various countries in the world, such as India and Thailand. For example, the representative dishes such as Portuguese Chicken and African Chicken have unique methods.
Finally, we'd like to introduce Yangzhou. As the saying goes, 'Fireworks in March, come to Yangzhou.' Yangzhou also has more than just beautiful scenery in March. Yangzhou's food is also worth tasting. Yangzhou has the most authentic Huaiyang cuisine.
This is one of the four major cuisines of China, and its taste is relatively light, but it will never make you feel bland. Chefs put a lot of effort into the plating and design, making every dish like a beautiful work of art.
Okay, that's all for today's introduction. Next time's special edition will take you to even more interesting places!
