Food culture is an indispensable part of every city, but in some cities, due to geographical environment, the overall development level of catering industry and other factors, the quality of catering is unsatisfactory. The following is my idea of a gourmet desert city.

First of all, Taiyuan is one of the food desert cities in my opinion.

Although Taiyuan is the capital city of Shanxi Province, it is really average compared with other capital cities in terms of the development level of catering industry and the innovation of dishes. The dishes in most restaurants are monotonous, heavy oil and heavy salt, old-fashioned, lacking freshness and brand characteristics. Moreover, careful people will find that there are not many snacks in Taiyuan, and most of them are heavy-tasting, which makes Taiyuan's reputation in the food circle decline.

Secondly, Nanchang is also a gourmet desert city. The catering industry in Nanchang is not very developed, and the food style on the market is relatively simple. Only Nanchang sweet and sour fish and Nanchang oily preserved egg are well known. Other dishes and drinking tea are not very unique and innovative, and they are unattractive. In addition, the natural environment in Nanchang has also affected the development of its gourmet culture. Different soil and water, humid climate and other factors make Nanchang's dishes taste astringent compared with other cities, and are not loved by the broad masses of people.

Furthermore, Lhasa is another gourmet desert city. Although Lhasa has a relatively unique geographical location and rich Tibetan dishes, the special environmental factors it faces have had a great impact on the catering industry. Special environmental conditions such as high altitude and cold and dry climate lead to a relatively poor supply of raw materials in Lhasa. The dishes are single, heavy and unique, only suitable for the tastes of specific people, and it is difficult to attract a wider range of consumers. In addition, Lhasa also has problems such as uneven development level of catering industry and poor sanitary conditions, which also affects the development of catering industry to some extent.

In short, the above cities all have the problems of relatively backward development level of catering industry, lack of distinctive food culture, single dishes and dull taste. The root of these problems lies in these cities' insufficient attention to food culture, less market development opportunities, lack of investment in the inheritance and innovation of food culture, and failure to attract enough attention and change. In the future, these cities need more sustained efforts and development in terms of investment, policies and talents, so that the food culture can be developed here and citizens and tourists can enjoy a richer and more distinctive food experience.

on a land of 9.6 million square kilometers, every region in China has its own unique cuisine. The formation of these foods has become a culture of local diet, and it is by no means as simple as filling the stomach between meals. Local cuisine is usually based on local materials and can clearly reflect the local material and social life. In this vast land, many cities in China have been labeled as "gourmet desert" by netizens because they don't have their own special food. What is a "gourmet desert"? One is "no food" and the other is "not delicious". So the question is, where is the "gourmet desert" in China? These four cities are on the list respectively. Let's see if it's unfair. 1: Hangzhou, some netizens said that they went to Hangzhou on business. On the first day, they ate a bowl of mixed Sichuan, and the next day they tasted Dongpo meat. In the following week, they ate McDonald's and KFC almost every day.

On the take-away software, I often see foreign netizens complaining on it. Hangzhou dishes is expensive and unpalatable. When I left, I didn't forget to say with emotion: Hangzhou is really a gourmet desert. As a popular tourist city in China, Hangzhou has become the battlefield of online celebrity food harvest all over the country. Compared with the snail powder in Liuzhou, the hot pot in Chongqing, the stinky tofu in Changsha and the pot-wrapped meat in the northeast. Outsiders come to Hangzhou to visit the West Lake, taste Longjing, eat jealous fish and taste the "Hangzhou steamed buns" originally belonging to Shengzhou. It seems that no dish in Hangzhou can sweep across other cities. 2. Shenzhen, a platform has done a selection of special dishes in various cities in Guangdong, and McDonald's and KFC are the first in Shenzhen. On the internet, Shenzhen is the only "northern city" in the southern region, and has won two honors: "gourmet desert" and "fast food capital". In many people's inherent impression, Shenzhen has a short history and no food culture, so it is normal to say that it is a "gourmet desert". Actually, it is not. The age of the city is similar to that of Sanya, whose food characteristics and popularity are much larger than that of Shenzhen. Taipei is decades earlier than Shenzhen, but it does not prevent it from being the food capital of the night market. Therefore, there is no direct relationship between the gourmet desert and the length of urban history. For example, the city below. 3. Beijing, Beijing is known as the "gourmet desert" is not a day or two. In fact, behind Beijing cuisine is a thousand-year history of ethnic integration. Beijing is an inclusive city, which combines the delicacies of many northern regions and ethnic groups. Whether it's Huguosi snack street or all kinds of halal snacks in niujie, southerners may really not like it. In one place, Beijing food is very miscellaneous. According to documents, the catering industry in Beijing was very developed in the past, with the largest number of Shandong restaurants. There are ten halls, eight residences, eight buildings and eight Da Chun, among which Shandong cuisine is the most. Of course, besides Shandong cuisine, there are also Huaiyang cuisine. In the 1931s, there were more than 12 restaurants dealing in Huaiyang cuisine in West Chang 'an Avenue, which was called "Chang 'an December Spring" at that time. As an imperial capital, it has absorbed talents from all over the country, so it is natural to bring hometown flavor to Beijing. Then, Beijing cuisine at that time was also influenced by palace cuisine. Although it draws on the strengths of many families, it also leads to the "mixed fish and dragons" of Beijing cuisine and lacks its own unique personality. In fact, many Beijing cuisines are handed down to the people by royal nobles.

Another thing is that Beijingers pay attention to "not eating from time to time" and eat whatever they want in any season. As a Millennium capital, Beijing is rich in ingredients beyond everyone's imagination. "Poor and fastidious" is everyone's view of Beijing cuisine. In my opinion, this is not called "poor and fastidious", but a silent confrontation of Beijingers against this fast era. 4. Shanghai, a sea of rivers, brings together food from all over the world. It is not difficult to eat food from any country or province in Shanghai. But it is this that leads to the taste of its local cuisine and is excluded. Some people say that there are delicious foods in Shanghai, such as fried steamed buns, rice cakes with ribs, and grass circles ... These foods are not delicious, but only snacks! Others will say, steamed buns, boiled chicken, glutinous rice balls, er … steamed buns are from Wuxi, boiled chicken is from Shaoxing, and glutinous rice balls are from Ningbo. Well, there seems to be no delicious food in Shanghai. Some people will ask, what kind of food can be considered as a good one? For example, you can cook sea cucumber with scallion in Shandong cuisine, nine-turn large intestine, sweet and sour carp, and all kinds of little seafood in Qingdao ... For example, in the northeast, you can kill pork dishes, stew pork in pot, stew mushrooms with chicken, and stew in pot. Sichuan, Chongqing, these cities need not be illustrated by examples! In the whole "Desert Group", two "he is my brother" in Beijing and Hangzhou rank first and second respectively, followed by Shenzhen, Shanghai, Wuhan, Nanjing, Tianjin, Suzhou, Qingdao and Xiamen!
