      I’ve stayed in Guangzhou for around one week. Snacks here are rather impressive and unique. Here are some recommendations resulting from my personal experience.

      Seafood would come first when we are discussing Cantonese delicacies. Oysters, shrimps and inkfish are widely welcomed by local people. They would consume a lot of those kinds of seafood everyday. If you are a seafood lover too, you should never miss Guangdong.

      Second comes its herb tea. Guiling Jelly is the most famous one. Beside there are some others like White Gourd Tea and Fructus Momordicae Tea and so on.

       Milk Custard is also very delicious.

      This is the first local snack I had tasted after arrival. It’s call mock turtle soup. Both local and visitors seemed like it very much. This chewy bowl of beaf offel smells and tastes well.

      Following is Guangdong Won Ton stuffed with shrimp meat. It is very light and delicate in taste and is good to health.

      Lastly, you should never miss the gruels in Cantonese snacks. This is one of the must-taste-it. It is called Tingzai Gruel. Refreshing and special.

  Although I know it’s no use to just spititually recall the cates, I just can’t help. Having been to Xi’an for over two years, I still cannot adjust myself to the food here. So just be patient and share with me my favors.

  See?

   This is verrrrrrrrrrrrrry delicious, at least, in my opinion. Chinese call it Liangfen. Well the English version should be “agar-ager jelly”. Cute name, right?

  If you go to Chengdu, this one should never be missed, ‘cuz it’s reeeeally very famous and popular in Sichuan. Sometimes, people may queue to buy this from restaurant.

You may have heard of it. It’s name is a little bit confusing— fu qi fei pian in Chinese, but I’d like to translate it as ox’s tongue and tripe in chilli sauce.

HoHo`~ This is one of my favorate little snacks. It’s called dan hong gao in Chinese. If there is some kind of translation, I haven’t heared any, it may be “egg backed pudding”.

It is available in many places. There are many roadside peddlery selling this snack food. And it’s very cheap too.

   Chengdu, as the capital city of Sichuan province and key junction of the transportation in the mid-west China, has a collection of foods from all over the country.  

    
   Szechwan food has a stereotype of being hot and spicy. Emmmmm, mostly right, but not the whole story. There are, actually, some bland dishes in 
Szechwan food  .

 But the most famous is , yep, you got it! Hot pot~~~!

It’s almost world wide know typical Szechwan food, with uncountable spices boiling in the pot and oil with chili floating on the surface. My heaven, send me back now~! I can’t help mouthwatering~!

   Hotpot cannot be called snacks, but the following is a everyone-knows snack in
Chengdu. I don’ t know the exact translation of the it. Anyway, direct translation should be the dumpling of the Zhong family.

Every time I go to Chunxi Pedestrian Road for shopping, I will have my lunch there. And there are many other snacks and pastries in that restaurant, too. 

   The boiled dumpling in the brand of Long is another famous snack. It’s kind of bland flavor snack, but you can also have a bowl of them with chili and pepper.

  OK. I must stop here now. Can you here? My stomach is protesting~! I have to go and have my supper, though I know it will never be things above so long as I’m still on this campus…….
