Chaoshan was called Chaozhou in ancient times and now includes Shantou, Chaozhou, Jieyang and Shanwei. Because I was in a hurry, I only went to Chaozhou once, but I believe there will be a second and third visit to Chaoshan in the near future, because it was really delicious.
Because it is not far from Fujian, Chaozhou's food culture has many similarities with Minnan. Remember what I said, the places where the two provinces meet are basically delicious.
In Chaozhou, three meals a day is the norm. Of course, long meat is inevitable, but the happiness of eating food is also real. Today I will report on what we ate in those days. As for those who step on the thunder, I will also talk about it together to remind everyone.
It is said that a day's plan lies in the morning, and I don't want to sleep late for a few days in Chaozhou. After all, every meal is worth cherishing.
Ocean rice rolls
When I came to Guangdong, I always felt something was missing without a meal in rice rolls. There are many rice rolls shops in the streets of Chaozhou, which are different from the sweet soy sauce in rice rolls. The last sauces in Chaozhou rice rolls are generally braised pork sauce and sesame sauce, and occasionally seasoned with pickled vegetables or garlic oil.
I ate several restaurants, and the seasoning was not enough or the oyster sauce was too strong. I recommend Haiyang rice rolls, an old Chaozhou brand, with just the right seasoning. It is highly recommended that the signature Chinese cabbage and beef be fried on one side with sweet Chinese cabbage and fresh beef.
If you don't like the taste of sesame sauce, you can choose Lu Wei rice rolls and ask local friends. There is a nameless shop doing well, right next to the old Chaozhou cinema. If you want to eat, you might as well make a special trip.

Kuiyuanlaoer special fruit juice
Chaoshan people are famous for their love for glutinous rice. There are countless kinds of glutinous rice, among which glutinous rice juice is the most suitable. The method of Guo sauce is to roast the rice paste first, then cut it into pieces of white triangular rice slices, and then pour it with pork, oil, tofu and other braised flavors, which is a bit like the combination of Chaoshan kway teow and Fujian pot-side paste.
Mr. Kui's special sauce has been opened in Chaozhou for several years and has maintained a good reputation for many years. The boss wearing a white old man's vest is very discerning. The shop looks casual, and the things made are not sloppy at all. Otherwise, how can you stand in a border like Chaozhou for many years?

Bitter gourd juice, don't be prejudiced by name. The large intestine of this family is very clean and blends well with the taste of bitter gourd. A bowl of warm heart and stomach in the morning is worth a try.

Hanshangshou
If you want to eat authentic Cantonese morning tea, first recommend this Korean restaurant to go upstairs. The shop is located in Phoenix Island Park. Although the place is quite off-site, the business is very good, and it is basically full by 9 am.
The place to have morning tea is on the second floor. Because there is a river, the scenery by the window is very good, the environment is good and the price is affordable. This group of people expressed their satisfaction when they ate.
The advantage of many people is that you can order all the common things in the morning tea menu. Shrimp dumplings, rice rolls, Shao Shao, chicken feet and ribs are all online. Pick only your favorite food.
This phoenix quicksand bag must be a close-up. Look at this excellent quicksand.

Chaoshan people pursue the ultimate freshness in eating, and one of the typical representatives is beef hot pot. There is a saying that is true. When hot pots all over the world are studying the soup base, Chaoshan beef hot pot beats the world with a pot of clear soup
Guantang brothers beef hotpot
In Chaozhou, the best time to eat beef hot pot is afternoon or evening, because all the beef just delivered from the local slaughterhouse will be eaten there, and the taste is the best. Of course, as persistent as we are, we take a taxi directly to Guantang to eat. Next to the slaughterhouse, the beef is very fresh.
It is true that "the smell of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley". Although Guantang is far away from Chaozhou city (about half an hour's drive), every beef hotpot restaurant is very lively. Take this brother beef hotpot restaurant as an example. We arrived not too late. Although the storefront is large, the open space is basically full, and many tourist buses have stopped at the door.
The food was served quickly, but the liquidation speed of a group of people was not bad. Every dish of meat should be rinsed for ten seconds, and several pairs of chopsticks were robbed as soon as they were cooked. Basically, there is no need to describe how delicious it is. The empty plates that have been smashed up one by one are the best testimony.
Not only the meat is good, but also the free cabbage is crisp and refreshing. I had the cheek to ask the waiter to add some plates.
The most surprising thing is that when eight people checked out, they only ate more than 600, including the price of wine and soda, which was quite good. It's not a loss to take a taxi for this meal.

Laoji beef
If you don't want to go to Guantang, there are many famous hot pot restaurants in Chaozhou city. Laoji and Abin are the most famous, and there are many tourists who go to Abin for dinner. Laoji is a beef hot pot restaurant frequented by local people, and all aspects of evaluation are good.
The soup base is clear soup of bitter gourd and white radish, which retains the most primitive Chaoshan flavor, and the beef texture is completely lost to Guantang. The biggest feeling after eating beef hot pot in Chaoshan is that what I ate in other places before may be fake.

Xinji shacha beef hotpot
Sand tea is a kind of seasoning with great sense of existence in Chaozhou cuisine. It is improved from the traditional Indonesian sauce and is often dipped in Chaozhou. What many people don't know is that sand tea can also be used as the bottom of hot pot. If you are used to the taste of clear soup, try Xinji's special beef hotpot with sand tea.
It opened at four o'clock in the afternoon, and it wasn't long before people came one after another. The double bottom of Shacha clear soup is the most popular. Sand tea pot is used to rinse beef, which makes people particularly proud. Not only can the bottom of the pot be double-spelled, but the meat can also be half-spelled, so that even if there are few people, you can try more.
Both the bottom of the pot and the sand tea sauce used as dipping sauce are made by the boss himself, and a lot of efforts have been made.

Although Chaoshan area is not as rich as Guangfu area, it is closer to the sea, and fish, shrimp, crabs and shellfish are frequent visitors on the table. There is a saying in Chaozhou: "One fresh, two fertilizers and three times" refers to the local seafood. Let's talk about two delicious foods that Chaozhou can't miss the most-raw fish and raw salt.
Guantang original fish sheng
The most famous fish eater in Chaozhou is the original fish eater in Guantang. Chaozhou cuisine has a feature called one dish and one dish, that is, a dish with a fixed dip, such as Shacha beef hotpot, while sashimi and shrimp also have a fixed dip.
Add a little special soy sauce and sesame oil to shredded ginger, raw onion and coriander, and mix well with raw fish. The mouth is full of rich fragrance. This way of eating actually existed before the Tang Dynasty. In the idiom "beyond the golden jade", glutinous rice refers to raw fish, and glutinous rice refers to side dishes such as shredded ginger.
Shrimp is more recommended to dip in soy sauce mustard, just like eating sashimi at ordinary times. At first, I was a little resistant and afraid of fishy smell, but I found that it was not at all. The sweet Q played and I couldn't stop.
In addition, besides sashimi and fresh shrimp, red roast goose is also delicious, which is really surprising.

Round egg wine
Chaoshan people eat seafood in pursuit of authenticity, and all kinds of raw salting are representative. Jianghu people call it Chaoshan poison. Marinated blood clams, marinated shrimps, marinated cream crabs, marinated shrimps ... are necessary with wine, and there is no burden when used as snacks.
Round egg wine is a small shop that has been shopping for several days. The boss and his wife are both from Shantou. It turned out that the store was opened in Shantou. Because my daughter went to school, she came to Chaozhou with her family and opened a shop here together.
Seafood in coastal areas is relatively less valuable, and the price is very affordable. One meal is less than that in 200 yuan. When I left, I added the boss's WeChat to prepare for the next group purchase.

Ruiji casserole porridge
A friend who has lived in Guangdong for many years told me that I must have a seafood casserole porridge when I go to Chaozhou and asked me which one I recommend best. I said that Reggie is good, and the environment and services are basically absent, but I can still give full marks to the signature casserole porridge.
The signature shrimp and crab porridge is a must. I have been waiting for a long time, but there are too many ingredients and the entrance is fresh. Bowl after bowl, can't stop. I suggest you fly to eat.
Raw pickled crabs are also very good. It was just taken out of the refrigerator with the ice ballast. Crab paste is full, simply dip it in special sauce.
Because the menu is relatively simple, there are not many choices except porridge, so I ordered a red roast goose, but the taste is not as good as that of the fish restaurant, so it is not recommended. Off-topic: Rice porridge, a fat girl outside the city, is also a famous place to drink night porridge, but my stomach can't hold on, so I'm going to fight again next time.

Nanmiao tea house
For Chaoshan people, no food is better than no tea. Drinking tea has become an indispensable part of life.
Nanmiao Teahouse is located in a small old house with a history of 100 years. The owner repaired it as old as before and transformed it into today's teahouse.
Not far from Paifang Street. If you are tired of shopping, you can come here and try Kung Fu tea.
The teahouse in the small courtyard even uses a red mud stove burning charcoal to boil water, which has a unique flavor. There are several clusters of bamboo and green plants on the wall, which is simple and elegant.
The Thousand Carp Teahouse near the ancient city is also highly recommended by tea lovers, but it can't be done because of limited time. I recommend it to everyone here.

Kicking peach coffee
Taotao Coffee is the most "internet celebrity" cafe in Chaozhou. "Kicking peaches" is a Chaoshan dialect, which translates to going out to play. The atmosphere of the whole cafe is the same as the name, which is quite fun.
The quality of coffee is ok, except that a lady ordered a cup of single fir and accidentally stepped on the thunder. Other basic models are not bad, and the most important thing is that the packaging design is pleasing, like a modern China tea shop.
The environment is also very good, and there is a small rooftop on the second floor. If I hadn't eaten more, I would have been able to sit here for most of the day.

Maguxi cup
Knowing this store is purely accidental. When local friends came to visit us in Chaozhou, they brought several bags of his potatoes. Although we were full at that time, these bags of potatoes were swept away, which is not an exaggeration to say that they are the best I have eaten in recent years. Personally, I prefer the taste and original flavor of matcha, and the ingredients are delicious.
This shop is located in an alley not far from the ancient city. It's almost time to smell the fragrance. You'd better call ahead and make an appointment with the boss to get it. After all, it will take a long time to wait at the scene. Because it was so delicious, I bought some bags to take on the plane before I left.

Ancient dessert
Speaking of desserts, this ancient French dessert on Kaiyuan Road is most recommended. We also tasted the famous Hu Rongquan dessert, which was too sweet to eat. Let me give you a warning.
Duck mother twist, the signature of ancient French dessert, Chaozhou characteristics. Refers to glutinous rice balls shaped like duck eggs. The stuffing is divided into peanuts and sesame seeds. You can add ingredients such as tremella, red dates and red beans, and the sweetness is just right.
Yangzhi Ganlu is authentic old Cantonese flavor, and it is also very conscientious to use 15 yuan as a material.

Shi Yu milk ice
The evaluation of this milk ice is very good, and it is not far from Paifang Street, so I went shopping on the last night and went to eat. There are many places, very lively. Three people ordered two servings of ice, and the amount was just right.
The fruit used for milk ice is not bad, and the taste of sea salt milk cover is also quite pleasant. Friends who love ice can try it. There are surprises at the bottom.

Licorice fruit
The fruit of Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch in Chaozhou dialect is similar to that of Prunus mume in Fujian, but the difference is that one is drenched with licorice juice and the other is sprinkled with sour plum powder. You don't need to recommend this. You can basically find a shop that looks fresh and delicious on the roadside. It is very helpful for appetizing or digestion.
You can choose your own fruit, and the pricing method is weighing. The most recommended fruits are lotus, carambola, green awn, sweet awn and peach. The crisp taste with licorice juice is necessary, which is a brand-new fruit opening method, or it may be that the fruits cut by others are always particularly delicious.
The above is almost the food record of this trip to Chaozhou. If you want to eat all the authentic Chaozhou snacks, you can skip the main road of Paifang Street, where local people eat the most food in the alley.
Recommend Ximalu, Wiki's glutinous rice pig intestines, Yongji snacks, and various stalls that appear from time to time. It's unlikely to make a mistake to find someone to queue up, so it saves time and effort to eat while walking.
Another suggestion is that several groups should go together, or stay for a few more days, otherwise they can't eat at all.
Generally speaking, Chaozhou is a place with a slow pace of life, suitable for eating and drinking aimlessly. When you are tired, you can find a teahouse to sit and drink tea. If you haven't decided where to go on New Year's Day or New Year's Day, it will be a good choice. After all, winter in Guangdong is quite comfortable.
