Strategy·Shunde｜Taste Shunde I am willing to eat 8 meals a day

🍃 How can you miss Shunde if you want to eat authentic Cantonese food? . 📅Itinerary (2 days) Saturday: Take the high-speed train to 'Guangzhou South Station' - Metro 7 to Line 3 to 'Daliang Clock Tower Station' - Qinghui Garden - Huagai Li Straight Street - Stay near 'Qinghui Garden' Sunday: Huagai Mountain Plank Road - Jinbang Lower Street - Metro 3 to 7 to 'Guangzhou South Station' - Return . 🗺️Food Map Saturday: Huagai Li Straight Street (Aunt He's Geshui-Wei's Beef Offal Soup-Minxin Old Shop|Double Skin Milk)-Damen Restaurant|Fish Sashimi-Huasheng Line|Turtle Jelly Sunday: Huagai Li Straight Street (Ah Bao Lemon Tea-Fish Skin Brother)-Jinbang Upper Street (Jinbang Huanji Cow Milk|Buffalo Milk)-Xingtang Fair and Beautiful (Daliang Store)|Congee Hot Pot . The most worthwhile places to go in Shunde 1⃣️'Huagai Li Straight Street' There are many snacks, the famous Aunt He's Geshui, Wei's Beef Offal Soup, Fish Skin Brother, Minxin Old Shop are all very close, you can eat all the way. Minxin Old Shop (Double Skin Milk Museum Store) is on this street, it is the first private public welfare exhibition space themed on the famous Cantonese snack double skin milk (the exhibition hall is open for free, daily 10:00-19:00), after the visit, sit down and eat a bowl of milk. The authentic double skin milk with a strong flavor is a bit sweet, but it's still delicious 2⃣️'Huagai Mountain Plank Road' You can climb up and walk around, not tired, and you can digest food by the way, you don't need to go back and you can walk to Jinbang Upper Street from the plank road to drink a bottle of buffalo milk 3⃣️'Jinbang Upper Street' is a very characteristic alley in Shunde, you can glimpse the fireworks of Shunde from the Huagai Mountain Plank Road. 'See route p8' 4⃣️How can you not eat fish sashimi when you come to Shunde! I dare not say which fish sashimi is the most delicious, the freshness of the fish and the method of mixing the seasoning will affect the taste. 'Damen Public' The fish sashimi is a taste I can't forget (after all, it's a bit difficult to find a delicious and affordable Shunde fish sashimi restaurant in Shenzhen) 5⃣️There are countless congee hot pot shops in Shunde, 'Xingtang Fair and Beautiful (Daliang Store)' is also delicious, but I personally think it's almost the same as the delicious congee hot pot in Shenzhen, you can eat it if you don't queue up
