Huagai Road, Daliang

华盖路

An old-street pedestrian lane in Daliang, Shunde, where the signature snacks of the “World Food Capital” gather: double-skin milk, ginger milk pudding, Lunjiao cake, and fish sashimi.

Huagai Road lies in the old town of Daliang, Shunde, next to Qinghui Garden. It is a pedestrian street that preserves its arcade-style buildings. On the street and around it are long-established double-skin milk shops such as Minxin and Renxin, along with ginger milk pudding, Lunjiao cake, Chenpi duck, bengsha (a crispy fried snack), pork-blood congee, and many dessert soup stalls. In 2014 UNESCO named Shunde a “City of Gastronomy.” Beyond street snacks, for full meals try Shunde fish sashimi, Junan steamed pork, sauna chicken, pan-fried fish lips, fried milk, and Daliang wild chicken rolls, all available at long-established restaurants in Daliang or Rongqi. Getting there: it is a short walk from Qinghui Garden. It is a good idea to have afternoon tea here after touring the garden, then dine at a nearby restaurant in the evening. Fish sashimi is raw freshwater fish and carries a risk of parasites, so those with sensitive stomachs should avoid it.
