In China, there is plenty of old and famous restaurant and cafe with authentic local food but usually hidden away from travelers, tourists and foreigners, only well known to the locals. The question is why? After some brief research, I have found out that the keyword search is just incompatible with the Chinese character on the search engine unless you know Chinese character and have searched the correct keyword to have the right information shows up. The Chinese character for these restaurants is \u8001\u5b57\u53f7 (pinyin; lao zi hao), with Google translated as \u201cold and famous\u201d, whereas laozihao <\/i><\/em>means old and authentically famous. Laozihao<\/i><\/em>\u00a0has to be local delicacies with a brief history and famously well known to the locals<\/b><\/strong>.\u00a0These laozihao <\/i><\/em>do have a reputation for the local community serving authentic local delicacies, with some dated back to the early 1900s. Starting from Guangzhou, here I have compiled a list of local Guangzhou delicacies which I have tried them on my own as I travel China (Full Guangzhou Guide here<\/a>).
