Guangzhou's afternoon tea culture can be traced back to the Qing Dynasty. At that time, Guangzhou was one of the important ports for China's foreign trade. Many foreign businessmen often came to Guangzhou and brought many fresh ingredients and pastries.
These delicacies are gradually integrated into the local food culture, forming Guangzhou's unique afternoon tea culture.
Afternoon tea in Guangzhou mainly focuses on dim sum, including various cooking methods such as steaming, boiling, frying, and roasting. The taste is light and delicious, including classic dim sum such as barbecued pork crisps, quicksand buns, and shrimp dumplings.
Among them, the most representative one is Cantonese-style morning tea, which is also called "morning tea" because it is served from morning to noon.
In Guangzhou, afternoon tea is not only a culture of eating and drinking, but also a platform for social interaction and interpersonal relationships.
People often chat, make friends, discuss matters and spend their leisure time during afternoon tea time.
There are many places for afternoon tea. From large hotels to small tea restaurants, and even street carts, you can find delicious afternoon tea.
Generally speaking, Guangzhou’s afternoon tea culture is an important part of Chinese tea culture and has its own characteristics and charm.
It not only represents Guangzhou’s food culture, but also Guangzhou people’s pursuit of a better life.
