Shantou, known as a food paradise, is much richer than you think. There are all kinds of delicacies spread throughout the streets and alleys. If you are a foodie, you may want to try this place. You can find all kinds of delicacies.

Shantou is a place where delicious food can be found all over the city and beyond. There is a stall every three steps, a stall every five steps, and a store every ten steps.

A day basically consists of eating from morning to night, not to mention five or six meals a day.

No wonder Chaoshan is not a particularly famous place for entertainment.

But for people who are obsessed with "eating", it means two words: heaven.

Hong Kong Seafood ▲ Caught on fish steaks Only when you eat Hong Kong seafood can you be considered to have eaten seafood in Shantou.

This is absolutely true.

Shantou's sea area has one advantage that other places don't have: shallow sea area.

The seafood fished out here is sweeter, more tender, more vigorous, and full of umami! There is a street in the old town of Shantou City filled with various fish shops, which can be called the "Seafood Food Stall Street", including stir-fried and seasonal fish.

.

But on this trip, we went to the fish steak, watched them catch and cook on site, blew the sea breeze, played with the cat on the fish steak, and had a great time eating seafood, which instantly reached the pinnacle of life.

The most important thing is that a full table of seafood dinner for 10 people only costs a few hundred yuan, which is a great value.

Yujiale Braised Goose ▲ A pair of lion-head geese costing thousands of dollars! This is the stewed braised goose that costs thousands of dollars that everyone is stunned by.

Goose.

In Shantou, there is a custom of having geese when worshiping gods. From this, we can see the status of "goose" in the hearts of Shantou people.

In fact, braised goose can be found everywhere in Shantou, so not all braised goose has an expensive price.

Braised goose is more like an inseparable food in life for Shantou locals.

And if you want to eat the legendary Qian Yuanji braised goose, you need to choose the lion head goose.

Lion-head geese are grown in different years, and their meat quality and price are also different.

A lion-head goose that has been bred for more than three years can reach 60 pounds. The meat is more chewy and the more you chew, the more fragrant it becomes.

(Especially the pink liver, which is soft and fragrant and melts in your mouth. You must try it.) Recommended location: Jiuyue Fine Wine Food Lifestyle Hall Chunmei Goose Meat Shop Beef Balls/Hot Pot ▲The most popular beef balls/hot pot in Chaoshan at present

The most famous ones are probably the beef hotpot and beef balls.

I am personally very fascinated by this kind of food, so I proposed to explore it as soon as I arrived in Shantou.

The reason why Chaoshan beef products cannot be copied is first of all because of their high-grade beef quality, and secondly because of the manual production method.

The beef balls are plump, with moderate oil content, firm and elastic.

All parts of the cow are carefully classified and presented in the beef hot pot.

Shantou's beef hotpot is more pure than other cities. There are no extra ingredients. The clear soup is full of the purest beef aroma. When dipped in the local sand tea sauce, it tastes amazing.

There was also an unexpected discovery. During the exploration process, our accompanying Shantou friends reminded us more than once not to eat too many beef balls, but to leave room for beef hot pot.

Obviously for locals, beef hotpot has a higher status in their hearts.

It seems that in Shantou, I heard from Shantou people around me that porridge is usually white porridge, not casserole porridge.

However, if a Shantou person says that he wants to eat white porridge for a late-night snack, he will not believe it. He only eats white porridge! In addition to white porridge, most white porridge restaurants also have their own specialties.

Products such as fish rice, raw pickled seafood, etc.

The general picture of a late-night snack is like this. There is a table with a pot of fragrant and soft white porridge in the middle, and it is surrounded by various stir-fried dishes and seafood. There are so many types, it is no less than a serious feast.

.

Fuyuan's late night snacks are very famous. The environment is open and the food is all available, making it a very enjoyable meal.

_, is actually a food made from rice flour, flour and potato starch.

Among many food products, stir-fried chicken strips and chicken juice are the more common types of various food products.

First of all, stir-fried strips are made by cutting the cake into strips or triangles, adding fish sauce, soy sauce, etc. and frying. Sometimes oysters and other seafood are added.

And the way to eat it is also very unique. The salty strips are fried by themselves, but they have to be dipped in sugar to eat, which has a unique flavor.

As for the sauce, the noodles are made into slices, added with marinade, and finally covered with a layer of braised pork, braised intestines and other side dishes. Drink a big bowl full, and it is extremely fragrant.
