Guangzhou people are natural gourmets who are proud of their world-famous Cantonese cuisine. Featured Food can be listed as Baiqie Chicken (sliced boiled chicken), stewed snake and wildcat with chicken and chrysanthemums and Fo Tiao Qiang. Seafood is also famous there.

 An emphasis on preserving the natural flavor of the food is the feature of Cantonese cuisine. Along with freshness and quality, artistic presentation of the food and garnishing are also very important to Cantonese cuisine. Beef with Oyster Sauce is a typical Cantonese dish, as are Fried Rice and Steamed Chicken. Steamed sea bass, stir-fried grouper, and Lobster Cantonese are all well-known Cantonese dishes. Shark's fin soup is a local delicacy. Curry chicken, made by simmering chicken, curry powder and vegetables in coconut milk, shows the influence of Southeast Asian cuisine on Chinese cooking. Vegetable dishes reflect the wide variety and seasonality.
