Shark Fin Restaurant
|
|
It is said that if it walks, crawls, swims or flies, the Cantonese will eat it. But in Xi'an, you'll find the offerings in Cantonese restaurants relatively tame. Cantonese cookery (Yue(4) Cai(4)) is widely regarded as the most refined of Chinese cuisines. It tends to be lightly cooked and mildly spiced relative to food from other regions of China. |

De Fa Chang Dumpling Restaurant
|
|
Defachang has many special dishes, but the dearest is jiaozi made of Shark fin. Another kind of jiaozi as big as a small fingertip filled with chicken meat. It is called a pearl jiaozi and is boiled in a hotpot of chrysanthemum soup. About this, there is a vivid story that when Empress Dowager Ci Xi came to the city she asked her cook to provide her with a new taste, and the cook prepared this kind of jiaozi to please her. It was well received. |
