The reason may be because Beijing is the political and cultural center of our country, too many foreign workers, resulting in difficult to adjust to the taste of the crowd, like the old Beijingers love to eat brine, many people think that this has a viscous taste of offal, the old Beijingers love to drink soybean juice, some people commented on the taste like slop.
Beijing's traditional snacks are spit out, partly because people did not find a real conscience of the business, after all, the quality of businesses on the market are mixed, and partly because of the crowded mouth, people from different cities around the country, eating is not accustomed to the characteristics of a place is normal.
The second "food desert" is Hangzhou, Hangzhou is a very rapid economic development of the city, the migrant worker population is also very much, the office workers are usually point fast food to cope with, for the exploration of Hangzhou cuisine, working people do not seem to be willing to pay the time and money, so". The title of "culinary desert" has fallen to Hangzhou.
The third city is Shenzhen, the developed economy certainly attracted food and beverage businesses around the country, chain brand stores are also blossoming, but Shenzhen is the only less local specialties, workers home from work to order takeout, looking at the screen full of chain stores, and even the mood of the order is not.
The fourth city is Shanghai, Shanghai as China's economic center, the pace of life in the city is naturally quite fast, everyone seems to be in a hurry to live, working people in order to make ends meet and running around, there may not be a real opportunity to taste the real local food, so Shanghai naturally became the eyes of the people, "food desert! "
The rest of the city's food scene is still very much the same.
The remaining six cities selected as "food deserts" are Wuhan, Nanjing, Tianjin, Suzhou, Qingdao and Xiamen, but on closer inspection, are these cities really "food deserts"?
Many people are afraid not to think so, Wuhan's duck neck and hot dry noodle flavor is excellent, Nanjing's sauce plate duck taste tempting, Tianjin's pancake fruit, Suzhou's crab buns, Qingdao's barbecue, Xiamen's sand tea noodle are all amazing food, why these cities will be selected as a "food desert"?
In fact, a closer look is not difficult to find, these cities on the list is either the economic and political center of our country, or is the rapid economic development in recent years of the emerging first-tier cities, or is the big hot tourist cities, these types of cities are facing a problem, that is, the population is very frequent movement.
Population once the flow of frequent, will inevitably lead to the proliferation of all kinds of businesses on the market, the real food, after all, only a few locals will do, but the good and bad business will not be authentic "food" recommended to outsiders, naturally, leaving a bad impression on outsiders.
Added to this is the fact that the workers come from all parts of the country, and their eating habits have been y rooted in the local cuisine is not used to is also a very normal phenomenon, it is precisely because of these difficult to adjust to the habits of these tastes, which led to the emergence of the "food desert" this list.
In fact, every city in China has its own unique cuisine and unforgettable memories for the locals. If migrant workers want to really get rid of the "food desert" and find the food that fits their dietary habits, please spend some time and energy to explore your unique tastes.
