Cantonese people pay more attention to the original flavor and color, aroma and flavor of their food. All the ingredients are used to set off and enhance the "freshness" of the original flavor of the ingredients, so that the "color" and "smell" of the ingredients can be enhanced after cooking, making the ingredients more delicious. Therefore, we can often see steamed fish, boiled shrimp, boiled chicken, and other exquisite and delicate dishes on Cantonese tables.

In addition to Cantonese cuisine, Cantonese people also like other Chinese cuisines. The tolerance and openness of the Cantonese people are also reflected in the dishes. Guangdong's prosperous business has attracted talents at home and abroad. It is one of the provinces with the largest migrant population in the country. In order to allow friends, brothers and sisters who come to Guangdong for business and work to taste the delicious food of their hometown in a foreign land, many dishes are prepared. There will be some integration and upgrades. In addition to traditional Cantonese cuisine, many traditional Chinese restaurants will also provide a wide variety of other domestic cuisines and some major foreign cuisines for everyone to choose from. For example, Sichuan, Hunan, Shandong, Fujian, Zhejiang cuisine and foreign Western food are blooming in Guangdong.
