Shenzhen Feature Food, Shenzhen Travel Guide

Shenzhen is a sub-provincial city of Guangdong province in southern People´s Republic of China, situated north of Hong Kong. Shenzhen is a center of foreign investment and since the late 1970s has been one of the fastest growing cities in the world. It is also the busiest port in the PRC after Shanghai.The one-time fishing village of Shenzhen, singled out by late Chinese paramount leader Deng Xiaoping, to be the first of the Special Economic Zones (SEZ) in China. It was originally established in 1979 due to its proximity to Hong Kong, then a prosperous British colony. The SEZ was created to be an experimental ground of capitalism in "socialism with Chinese characteristics".The Special Economic Zone comprises Luohu, Futian, Nanshan, and Yantian but not Bao´an and Longgang.

It would be a lie to say that food preparation standards in mainland China, including Shenzhen are up to the standards in Hong Kong or the developed world. That being said, to not eat local food, is a great disservice to yourself. Chinese food, especially local food is fantastic! from super spicy dishes, to sweet and delicate yummy dishes, to fresh fish pulled right from the ocean, Shenzhen has it all. As a migrant city, all of the regional cuisines of China are represented with restaurants ranging from hole-in-the-wall establishments for working class arrivals to opulent restaurants for businessmen and politicians entertaining guests. If you are a foreigner, spending 100 RMB on a fantastic meal is no problem (though, you can spend 35 RMB on a fantastic meal in Shenzhen). Treat yourself, and enjoy the wonderful foods of Shenzhen!
