Cantonese cuisine consists of three local flavors: Guangzhou Cuisine (also known as Canton Cuisine), Dongjiang Cuisine (also known as Hakka Cuisine), and Teochew Cuisine (also known as Chaoshan Cuisine), which are each distinctive. Guangzhou Cuisine covers the Pearl River Delta and Shaoguan, Zhanjiang and other places, Dongjiang Cuisine originated in the Hakka settlement along the Dongjiang River in Guangdong Province, and Teochew Cuisine originated in the Chaoshan area, which is a school of its own by combining the strengths of Fujian and Guangdong.
