When we travel, besides visiting scenic spots, tasting local food is also an important travel experience. Many places in China have their own representative cuisines. After all, to some extent, special cuisine is one of the long-standing cultures in this region. The famous ones are Changsha stinky tofu, Lanzhou beef Lamian Noodles, Wuhan Regan Noodles and Xi Chinese hamburger. When you travel to a city, these representative foods will jump into your mind and be included in the travel list. However, China is a famous tourist city with beautiful scenery and profound cultural heritage, but it seems that there is no representative food. Some people even call it a "food bowl". That is Hangzhou! When we came to Hangzhou, in addition to visiting the beautiful scenery, many tourists were confused when they first came to Hangzhou, that is, they didn't know what to eat. Not long ago, my friend went to Hangzhou. The list of tourist attractions has been drawn up in advance, except for the one about food. Before I came to Hangzhou, my friends didn't know the food culture here.

In this search, my friend found an interesting phenomenon, that is, unlike other cities that recommend special foods, Hangzhou recommends restaurants in its tourism strategy. For example, outside the building, Zhiweiguan, grandma's house, green tea and so on.

When it comes to specialties, there are only West Lake vinegar fish, Longjing shrimp, Ding Sheng cake, onion and Dongpo meat. But most of them are dishes that need to be put in the hall, and there are few snacks in the street. I believe many tourists have been to Qinghefang Street, a famous food street in Hangzhou, where snacks and handicrafts can be seen everywhere, but it doesn't seem to have the characteristics of Hangzhou (or haven't I found it? Many tourists feel the same way, so some people call Hangzhou a "gourmet basin" on the Internet. Someone specifically analyzed the food in Hangzhou "Don't go out of line". Some people say that Hangzhou became the capital because of Nandu in the Southern Song Dynasty, but because members of the royal family missed their motherland, they also brought food from the north to Hangzhou. Therefore, the food culture of the North and South has become the "gene" of hangzhou dishes. Some people say that hangzhou dishes in Hangzhou shows the exquisiteness of the city, and the prices of these dishes are usually relatively high, so they have not developed into street snacks as we all know.

So, have you ever been to Hangzhou? What's your impression of Hangzhou? Do you know any special food in Hangzhou? Do you think Hangzhou is a "gourmet basin"? What delicious food did you eat in Hangzhou? If you have the opportunity to travel to Hangzhou again in the future, what do you want to eat most?
