Second, eat - Southern Guangdong delicacies

1. Southern Guangdong delicacies - Nanyue Vegetarian Restaurant

Nanyue is a Buddhist and Taoist resort, and has long been famous for its fast food.

In Nanyue, there are usually the so-called first flavor, second degree of plum (mold), three fresh soup, four seasons green, five lanterns (stew), six companions, seven floors, eight bowls, and nine roses. , ten kinds of scenery.

Yipinxiang is a single item in vegetarian dishes.

Mel is moldy beans and fermented bean curd.

Sanxian soup is made from three kinds of fresh vegetables on time.

The four seasons are four different vegetables.

Five lanterns are five kinds of stew.

Liulian usually refers to grilled eggplant, fried bamboo shoots, stewed mushrooms, oil-soaked peppers, dried tofu and lotus root balls.

Seven layers, namely fake meat, meatballs, steamed buns, gluten, Chinese cabbage, magnolia slices, mushrooms, etc. It's all laminated, like a family portrait or a lion's head on a meat plate.

Eight bowls make a banquet, and eight vegetarian dishes imitate meat dishes.

In the September meal, different dishes are served on time and according to the number of guests, which can satisfy the guests, so it is also called a wishful meal.

There are generally two types of Shijing: one is Shijing stew, called Xiaoshijing, which is made with magnolia slices, carrots, white radish, lily, cabbage, mushrooms, water chestnuts, and potatoes. , bean and bamboo shoot skin, noodles, ribs, etc. stew together.

The southern Cantonese tofu cake tastes great. Looking at the white and tender tofu, my mouth is watering! Although the workmanship is not much different from other places, the important thing is the raw materials! Don't look at that humble bowl of tofu. It is made by tofu masters using selected high-quality soybeans and sweet mountain spring water. It's tender and smooth, and it's sweet. I can't bear to eat it, but not eating it will only make you want it more. It would be a pity to come to Nanyue Hengshan without tasting the local tofu. It would be like going to Xi'an without seeing the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, going to Beijing without seeing Xiangshan, going to Tianjin without going to 18th Street to buy cannabis flowers, and eating Sichuan spicy hotpot without adding chili peppers. . If you come to Nanyue and Tang don't try the tofu here, you will always feel that something is missing.

Southern Guangdong rice noodles

I have eaten rice noodles from many places, including Yunnan rice noodles, Guangdong rice noodles, Guilin rice noodles and Sichuan Dandan noodles (it’s called noodles, but it’s actually flour ). But I still think the rice noodles in my hometown are delicious, especially on Duxiu Road, where there is a rice noodle shop. Which rice noodles are delicious? It's absolutely amazing! Several shops were open side by side, but that one was always packed with customers. Friends who go to Nanyue must remember to try it. I will never brag just for publicity!
