We live in a country with vast territory and abundant resources. There are countless delicious foods on 9.6 million square kilometers of land, and almost every city has its own characteristics.

But not all cities' cuisines can be loved by the public. Netizens always like to use "gourmet desert" to tease those cities without cuisines. It must be said that because of the integration of cultures in different regions, the food in some cities has gradually lost its original characteristics and become mediocre and popular. In this issue, Sister Mei introduces five recognized "food deserts" to everyone. Hangzhou is on the list, and no one objects to the first place. Do you have your hometown?

Fifth place: Qingdao

There may be many friends in Qingdao who are not convinced. Will coastal cities still lack food? Seafood is the specialty! Qingdao is indeed rich in all kinds of seafood, but when you think about it, it seems that no seafood dishes are impressive.

It is not difficult for tourists who have been to Qingdao to find that there are many and varied ways to cook seafood in Qingdao, including baking with salt, barbecue, stir-frying and cold salad, and it is difficult to form a unique food system. Especially for mainlanders, it's ok to travel occasionally and try something fresh, but I'm afraid I can't stand eating it often.

Fourth place: Wuhan

Wu Hanyou Regan Noodles, duck neck, bean skin, noodle nest, steamed dumplings, etc., why will it become a "gourmet desert" in people's eyes? Regan Noodles is a kind of snack, and there are shops all over the country. After improvement in different regions, the flavor of Regan Noodles has gradually changed, and all regions think that they are the best.

At the same time, the taste of Regan Noodles is not competitive, and the ingredients such as sesame paste, sesame oil and pepper are not healthy, preferring a fast food. The friends who have traveled to Wuhan are deeply touched, and they can't find delicious food in the streets and alleys.

Third place: Shenzhen

Cantonese cuisine is one of the eight famous cuisines in China. Cantonese people also have the characteristics of daring to eat and being able to eat, and there are countless classic cuisines in Cantonese cuisine.

However, as a big city in Guangdong Province, Shenzhen attracts job seekers from all over the country because of its economic strength. Although Shenzhen gathers delicious food from all over the country, it is just a few things. Most of the local dishes are fresh oysters, squab, sea urchin and abalone, which are common in coastal cities. It is difficult to find delicious food with local cultural characteristics here.

Second place: Hangzhou

After seeing Hangzhou, there may be many friends who are not satisfied. West Lake vinegar fish, Longjing shrimp, Dongpo meat, these historical delicacies should not just be displayed, right? This is really the case. Most of these dishes with strong Hangzhou flavor only punch in when foreigners travel to Hangzhou, and the local people's eating habits have been covered by other cuisines. Locals prefer to eat fried dumplings, wonton, stewed onions, snacks and other snacks.

As a popular tourist city, snack shops from all over the world have mushroomed in Hangzhou, but there are few amazing foods. Because Hangzhou cuisine is light, delicious and non-spicy, it is difficult to be loved by foreign tourists. Some netizens even ridiculed: "Hangzhou cuisine is not as good as Shanghai cuisine next door, not as good as Guangzhou Cantonese cuisine, and it is even more underground than Sichuan cuisine, which is famous all over the country."

First place: Beijing

The title of "gourmet desert" in Beijing has a long history. For many southerners, Beijing cuisine is like dark cuisine. I feel that there is hardly any delicious food except old Beijing instant-boiled mutton, roast duck and Zhajiang Noodles. Especially bean juice, braised pork and fried liver, look ugly and taste heavy, which is not used by local people. And those strange preserved fruits and cakes, which are unpalatable, are the same.

Secondly, Beijing has gathered tourists and migrant workers from all over the country. Because the tastes are too complicated to reconcile, street restaurants can only keep improving, and finally the taste can only become nondescript. Therefore, it is not surprising that Beijing has become the first "gourmet desert".

communication can make the food culture rich and colorful, but we must master a certain degree in everything. If we cater to the excessive changes in the market, it will lead to the lack or even deterioration of the food culture, and the treasures handed down for thousands of years will be burned.
