Guangzhou is a gourmet metropolis and the birthplace of Cantonese cuisine. Cantonese cuisine is characterized by lightness, paying attention to "color, fragrance, taste and shape". Steaming, boiling and instant boiling are more commonly used. Raw materials are fresh.
When it comes to the food in Guangzhou, people who have been to Guangzhou may be most impressed by the soup made by Guangzhou people. Cantonese cuisine pays attention to soup, and all kinds of materials seem to be used to make soup.
I once saw a big water tank in front of a restaurant, and I don't know what it was for. Someone told me that it is used to make soup. There are many small earthenware pots in these large water tanks. They are heated together in the large water tanks, and then stewed slowly in the tanks for a long time. The stewed soup is of course particularly delicious.
People in Guangzhou eat with good intentions. First, there is a wide range of things to eat, second, there are many ways to eat and new patterns, and third, it takes a long time to eat. Many people in Guangzhou have breakfast before dawn, which is called morning tea. In the evening, when it is almost dawn, they will also eat midnight snack, which is called night tea. Basically, they can enjoy all kinds of delicious food all day. Of course, this lifestyle of Guangzhou people also benefits from the variety of snacks.

As the saying goes, "Food in Guangzhou, taste in Xiguan". Xiguan used to be the most prosperous food center in Guangzhou. There are hundreds of cuisines here, which bring together the most traditional and classic dishes in Cantonese cuisine. "Xiguan", also known as Liwan, is named after "Litchi Bay" and has the reputation of "a bay with green water and red litchi on both sides". Xiguan is the core area of Guangzhou food culture and the birthplace of the most authentic Cantonese dim sum.
Therefore, when you go to Guangzhou, you must come to Xiguan for morning tea. Tangli Garden is on the picturesque Liwan Lake. Once a famous garden in Xiguan, it is now a delicious place where Xiguan garden culture and food culture are integrated.
