Shunde cuisine is often called the cradle of Cantonese food, celebrating seasonal eating and the elevation of simple ingredients through meticulous technique, precise knife work and strong wok hei — the distinct smoky flavour from high-heat stir-frying.
At Shunde Cuisine, the signature is the fish maw and shredded fish soup. Different fish and cuts are used to create a naturally sweet, light, milky broth, enriched with crunchy wood ear and tender fish maw, then brightened with lemon leaves, chrysanthemum, coriander and dried tangerine peel. Another must-try is the Daliang smoked pork roll: ultra-thin pork belly smoked with rose liqueur, then steamed and fried for a crisp, aromatic and deeply satisfying bite.
