In my mind, "gourmet desert" ranks first in Beijing and second in Hangzhou.
what do you think of when you talk about Beijing's delicious food? Many people may think of Beijing Roast Duck, Beijing Zhajiang Noodles and Beijing Bean Juice.
when it comes to the food in Hangzhou, what do you think of? Many people may think of West Lake vinegar fish, Longjing shrimp, Dongpo meat, Hangzhou steamed buns, West Lake beef soup and other special foods.
Why are these two cities called "gourmet deserts" when there are many special cuisines? Why are these two cities at the top? Today, let's take a look at whether it's wrong or not.
first, local specialties are not recognized by everyone.
According to local people, Beijing and Hangzhou do have many special foods, such as bean juice in Beijing, and Zhajiang Noodles is a favorite food for many old Beijingers for three meals a day. However, when foreigners came to Beijing to taste Zhajiang Noodles bean juice, they all vomited. The bean juice has a rotten sour smell, which is really unacceptable.
in the eyes of outsiders, where is this special food? It is clearly a "dark dish". After tasting it once, foreign tourists and migrant workers are no longer willing to eat it for the second time.
The same is true in Hangzhou. The vinegar fish in the West Lake is the signature of hangzhou dishes. Although the dishes are exquisite in appearance and well set, foreign tourists find a pungent acetic acid smell after tasting them, which is really unpalatable.
If you want to become a red city in the food network, the food you make should not only be loved by local people, but also by foreign tourists. Only when foreigners like to eat can the local tourism market be established.
second, the taste is small.
The second reason is that the tastes of dishes in Beijing and Hangzhou are not popular, and they do not belong to popular consumption tastes.
Beijing cuisine is characterized by crispness, crispness and delicacy. To put it bluntly, it has no memorable characteristics.
