Master Hu Zhongying, a leading figure in hangzhou dishes, said, "hangzhou dishes has won many awards in various domestic competitions and once scored the highest score. However, hangzhou dishes pays attention to the selection of materials, and cooking has skills and difficulties. Not every shop can cook well. Although some restaurants are making hangzhou dishes, the burning method and materials are wrong. "

Zhou Hongcheng, vice president of Zhejiang Food Culture Research Institute, said that some netizens said that Hangzhou is a gourmet desert. In his personal opinion, although the opinions of these netizens are somewhat exaggerated, they also tell some facts.

Zhou Hongcheng comes from Chongqing, the capital of food, and has been engaged in the research of food culture for many years. He said that compared with Chengdu, Xi 'an, Beijing and Shanghai, there are few famous food streets in Hangzhou, such as Guijie Street in Beijing, Kuanzhai Lane in Chengdu and hot pot restaurants everywhere in Chongqing. Cities dominated by Huaiyang cuisine, such as Yangzhou, have developed breakfast culture, and Shanghai's nightlife bar culture is prevalent. Except for a few places, Hangzhou is deserted after 9 pm. There are only a few food streets, and there is also a lack of fireworks. Hangzhou citizens don't pay much.

Secondly, according to Dean Zhou, one of the characteristics of hangzhou dishes is that it is "beneficial to the mouth, but unpleasant". hangzhou dishes attaches importance to the original taste of healthy food, and many classic dishes lack pungent taste, which is also difficult for young people to favor.

Zhou Hongcheng suggested that, first, the system management should be moderately liberalized to further boost the night economy. At present, stalls are allowed in some places in Hangzhou, which is very helpful to the fireworks in the city. There are some breakthroughs in urban space management, allowing more space in the city for food vendors to start businesses. Second, hangzhou dishes itself should make more innovations. There are many young people who start businesses in Hangzhou. Their tastes are more diverse, and they demand more cost-effective dishes. hangzhou dishes should learn from others and pay attention to the innovation and integration of dishes in the new era.
