Chaozhou style cooking is well received in Shenzhen and there are numerous restaurants
around town serving up this cuisine. This type of food is characterized by its
refreshing, crisp and lightly seasoned flavors. The emphasis is placed on maintaining
the natural flavor of the raw ingredients. Shark fin is a popular meat used
in Chaozhou style recipes.
Gongming barbecued goose originates in the town of Gongming near Shenzhen. This
kind of goose is very tasty, fragrant and flavorsome. The recipe is quite complex
and the meat is flavored with soy sauce, sugar, salt, wine, black bean and honey.
The bird is cooked in a huge pottery stove and roasted until it turns a golden
brown color. This roasted duck is really delicious and the skin tastes crisp
but is not greasy.??Most of the big restaurants downtown serve up this appetising
dish.
Northeast style cooking is similar to Manchu cuisine and also absorbs elements
of Shandong and Beijing cooking. This kind of food is common today in Shenzhen,
especially with the influx of migrants from the north. The food is beautifully
presented and has a crisp and fragrant taste. This kind of food involves various
cooking techniques including braising and steaming. Particularly authentic north
east style dishes to try are stewed pork slices with sausage and the traditional
"hot-pot".
Sichuan Style Cooking
Typical Sichuan style cooking is very hot and spicy! The Shenzhen interpretation
cuts back on some of the spice and heat, making the dishes much more palatable
for many people. Sichuan cooking also involves dry braising and ginger and chili
are used widely to flavor the dishes. Particularly good Sichuan dishes include
fish flavored pork and sauteed chicken with chili and peanuts. There is a great
Sichuan restaurant, the Xiangcai in the Shen Tieh building.

Entertainment
The influx of money and investment in Shenzhen has created a somewhat seedy atmosphere in the city. This is particularly prevalent in the evenings, when the city's gambling dens, "massage parlors" and bars are filled with moneyed men and young Chinese girls. This kind of atmosphere can be fun at times but unfortunately it is more often a bit threatening and tasteless. Crime is fairly rife here and most criminals come out to play in the dark, so make sure you keep your wits about you. There are therefore, very few places to actually recommend for drinking and dancing in the city but the bars in the larger hotels such as the Grand View Hotel and the Shangri-La Hotel, generally attract a nicer crowd. There is also a good Hard Rock Cafe here on Shennan Dong Lu.Shenzhen does however, offer some good sports and daytime recreational activities.There are numerous sports clubs,tennis courts, swimming pools, holiday villages and magnificent golf clubs including, Guanlan Golf club and Honey Lake holiday village. Most of these recreation parks are very well equipped and provide good service and equipment.
