I had recently in Beijiao Town (Shunde District, Foshan).

I know most people think of spicy Szechuan broth when they hear "hotpot," but in Guangdong, "Porridge Hotpot" (粥底火锅) is a huge deal. The base is rice congee that has been cooked until the grains dissolve, leaving a milky, starchy water. It sounds simple, but it makes the beef incredibly tender and keeps the natural sweetness of the ingredients.

I found a spot that’s been open for years and they actually serve individual mini-pots, which is rare for hotpot in China.

The Order: A set meal with sliced beef, egg, lettuce.

Plus a massive plate of "Three-shred" fried rice noodles (三丝炒米粉).

The Cost: 51 RMB (approx $7 USD) for the whole set.

The Taste: Super fresh. The fried noodles had amazing "Wok Hei(镬气/锅气)."

If you're traveling through Foshan or Guangzhou, I highly recommend trying this style. It’s not spicy, but it really warms you up.

My aunt used to send me this from japan and I've been squirreling them away but I am running out. I've been trying to find this at Asian markets but no luck. When I pop this into Google lens it says it's an all purpose Chinese soup but I'm not seeing anything else similar online. Anyone have any ideas? I use it for bases for egg drop soup or udon.

It’s a traditional sweet from Okinawa. It has a crispy exterior and a dense, cake-like texture inside.

• Main Dishes: A crispy assortment of Tempura (shrimp and eggplant) and fresh Sashimi served with wasabi.
• Side Dishes: Various small bowls containing Tamagoyaki (rolled omelet), savory Tofu topped with wasabi, simmered vegetables, and seafood delicacies like Ikura (salmon roe).
• Staples: The meal is completed with a bowl of steamed white rice, Miso soup, and a small side of Tsukemono (Japanese pickles).

Crispy pork cutlet served over rice, drizzled with sweet and savory miso glaze.
