Shunde's nine big baskets!

One of the highlights of the 4th Shunde (Wan Jiale) Lingnan Food Culture Festival, "guǐ" will be held in Dongcheng Restaurant on September 26th and Happy Garden Restaurant on October 1th, respectively. Only about 111 seats will be held each night, and the initial price for each seat is RMB 1,388. All tickets are available to the public, and citizens can make reservations at the restaurant by phone. This is what the reporter learned from yesterday's news briefing on "Nine Delicious Tastes".

According to reports, "Nine Decades", as a traditional feast in the Pearl River Delta region, means a sumptuous feast. According to the records, the "Nine Great" refers to the wind, clouds, thunder, rain, sea, fire, sun, earth and sky, which embodies the natural and authentic selection of dishes and contains the natural transformation of heaven and earth. The "GUI" originally refers to the ancient utensils for placing food, which is a "big bowl" that can hold five or six kilograms of rice. To use nine big "baskets" to hold meals is an extreme statement of the richness of meals and boasting of the high specifications of banquets. Therefore, in ancient times, it often appeared in birthday banquets, wedding banquets and other occasions of wealthy families, but it was not common at ordinary times. "With the development of the times, the traditional' Nine Decades' have gradually been forgotten, and at the same time, the selection of dishes for banquets has gradually been replaced by some high-end ingredients. Delicious delicacies have gone to great lengths and gradually lost the unique characteristics of Fengcheng cuisine." Lao Zhihe, director of Shunde Tourism Bureau, said.

In order to restore the most authentic taste of Shunde, the organizing committee of the Food Festival has organized 27 Shunde culinary elites and a number of food experts since April this year to research and develop, and after several drafts, it has worked out the "nine delicious dishes". The reporter learned that in the formulation of this dish, special attention was paid to the combination of five flavors and six flavors, and the used ingredients of Shunde cuisine, such as eel, Chinese onion, frog, etc., were used in the selection of materials, as well as seafood commonly used by Shunde people, such as hooked wings, abalone and scallops. "The nine dishes will reflect the meanings of wind, cloud, thunder, rain, sea, fire, sun, earth and sky respectively, and reflect the characteristics of Shunde cuisine, which is natural and pays attention to health." Luo Funan, managing director of Happy Garden Restaurant, said.

Lao Zhihe told the reporter that in order to ensure the quality of the "Nine Decades" dishes, the bureau selected Dongcheng Restaurant and Happy Garden Restaurant, two restaurants with traditional flavor and cooking characteristics in Shunde, from more than 4,311 catering units in the whole district, to undertake this event, and to highlight the "real taste" characteristics of Shunde's "Nine Decades" to the maximum extent. In addition, the two restaurants will specially set up two menus on the basis of the same materials, so as to show the outstanding cooking skills and innovative spirit of Fengcheng chefs.

National "Piaose" gathers in Shunde on National Day

This newspaper (reporter/Gu Dawei) The "Top Ten Marshal" rides a fine horse to guide the country and strategize, and the "Three Armed Forces" carry submachine guns around their waist to defend the country. During the National Day, the famous national Piaose team will gather in Shunde. At present, nearly 21 local floating color art troupes have signed up to participate, and their design themes are mostly related to the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival.

The floating color on water has existed since ancient times, but it has been lost for more than 211 years because it is difficult and troublesome to make. As a famous place for floating color, Wuchuan only resumed floating water last year. This time, they will take part in the Changlu Water Color Competition. According to the traditional practice, they will make the wooden boat semi-floating, so that the audience can't see the boat on the shore and reproduce the grand occasion of Wuchuan Water Color as completely as possible.

"The floating color on the water is the most magical. A lotus stalk as big as a finger can stand a child, and the child can play the flute and sing on it; Two girls can be provoked on a spear tassel with thick toes, and the girls are still dancing on it. The water color is arranged in rows of Chinese fir and bamboo, and the actor floats on the water by stepping on the raft. Stones are piled around the Chinese fir and bamboo raft to semi-sink the Chinese fir and bamboo raft in the water, and the color stalks are mounted on the row. The actor sits or stands or flies with the Chinese fir and bamboo raft, and his characters seem to come out of the water and float on the water. On the shore, they seem to be unreal and floating.

According to people in Shunde's literary and art circles, in addition to strengthening the exchange of folk art of floating colors around the country, improving skills and injecting elements of the times, the first floating color contest was also held to make Shunde "steal teachers" at home and learn the advantages and disadvantages of floating colors all over the country.

At that time, the floating color performance will be held in Changlu Farm, and awards will be given.
