Step into the World of Flavors, Colors, and History of Chinese Cuisine!

China, the country with the longest continuous civilization in the world, is home to majestic mountain ranges, vast rivers, and historic cities. From the ancient temples of the Forbidden City in Beijing to the modern skyscrapers of Shanghai, China is a country where tradition meets innovation. It is a place where each province boasts its own rich cultural heritage.

Chinese cuisine is as vast and diverse as its geography. It is divided into eight major culinary schools, each with its unique flavors, techniques, and ingredients. Among the most famous specialties are Peking duck with crispy skin, spicy kung pao (chicken with peanuts and chili), and various types of dim sum (traditional small dishes). Rice, rice noodles, and soy sauce form the base of most dishes, which are a masterpiece of balance and harmony.
