Discover Guangzhou's culinary treasures on a 4-hour food tour. Dive into the city's legendary food scene with 5+ authentic tastings, from dim sum to sizzling wok dishes. Experience to craft your own Cantonese rice noodle roll with guidance.
Kickstart your journey with an authentic Guangzhou dim sum breakfast. Savor flaky BBQ pork buns, translucent shrimp dumplings, and chrysanthemum tea while learning about Lingnan tea culture.
Slurp springy zhusheng noodles in clear broth with plump shrimp wontons at shop where chefs still knead dough with bamboo poles. Crunch into caramelized claypot rice with cured meats at a hidden alley gem. Taste stir-fried beef ho fun and fishball noodles bursting.
Cool down with Cantonese desserts, such as silky-smooth double-skin milk made with water buffalo milk and fiery-sweet ginger milk curd. Sample nostalgic street treats like chewy rice pudding cups and nutty black sesame paste.
The guide will take you to at least 3 different Cantonese resturants or street food shops (featuring dim sum breakfast, rice noodle rolls, bamboo-pressed noodles, claypot rice, stir-fried beef ho fun, or fish ball noodles) and 2 traditional Cantonese dessert shops (serving double-skin milk, ginger milk curd, rice pudding cups, black sesame paste, or classic sweet soups). Your guide will customize the restaurant visits and food tastings based on your preferences, or you can simply go with their handpicked top recommendations for an authentic Cantonese experience.
Cap off your culinary adventure by crafting your own Cantonese cheung fun—a silky-smooth rice noodle roll that epitomizes Guangdong’s street food soul. Under local guidance, spread steamy rice batter onto cloth or trays, layer fresh shrimp or savory beef, then fold your creation into delicate rolls. Drizzle with soy sauce for that wok hei magic. This short workshop lets you taste tradition through your fingertips. After all, nothing beats savoring a cheung fun you steamed yourself.
The 4 hour tour will start at Caihong Bridge Metro Station Entry A (Line 8 and Line 11) and end at Yongqing Fang. Your guide can lead you to a Metro station nearby or help you call a taxi, or you can walk around Yongqing Fang yourselves after the tour.
