I have heard the name of Panxi since I was a child, but my hopes were met with disappointment. Came here as early as 5 o'clock to get a table. The environment is really good. It's an antique traditional restaurant with a large interior. The service is a little behind, not very good. I purchased a 199 set meal as a group, but I didn’t want to comment on the taste one by one. It felt like they were all made in advance, and only the egg tarts and fungus were passable.  The traditional roast goose is an unexpected signature dish. It costs 58 yuan for 6 small pieces as shown in the picture, 3 of which have a lot of fat. If you go out to eat a roast goose rice, the portions are probably about the same. The weight of the pictures and text is serious. It doesn’t match, it’s too confusing.

Record of the May Day Guangzhou trip, sharing strategies. D1: Departure, arriving in Guangzhou in the afternoon. After settling into the hotel, I went to the Canton Tower in the evening. The transportation was very convenient, with direct subway access. Taking the elevator to the 460-meter platform, there's a Ferris wheel to see the Guangzhou night view, giving a direct impression of Guangzhou. D2: A full day at Chimelong Safari Park. Compared to Chimelong Ocean Kingdom in Zhuhai, this one leans more towards a wildlife park, while Zhuhai leans more towards marine animals. I spent the day checking the official WeChat account for show information, experiencing the rides, and seeing the animals. Just in time for the evening, I watched the Guangzhou Chimelong International Circus. Compared to the Chimelong Hengqin International Circus City and the Chimelong International Circus in Zhuhai, I personally prefer the Zhuhai Chimelong Circus, but both are wonderful and worth seeing, especially for children who are very excited. D3: In the morning, we had morning tea at Panxi Restaurant (Litchi Bay Branch). With its garden-style layout, it happened to be raining, giving it a very Jiangnan and beautiful feel. The dim sum was all good, and it was very pleasant to eat morning tea while watching the rainy scenery in the garden. Afterward, we strolled around Yongqing Fang and then went to Shamian Island. The architecture of Shamian Island is very suitable for street photography, with scenery everywhere. D4: The long-awaited Sacred Heart Cathedral. A Gothic building, not large but very beautiful, and very suitable for taking pictures. The streets around the church are also very suitable for strolling around. In the evening, we went to the Zhujiang Party Pier Beer Culture and Creative Art Zone under the Canton Tower for dinner, enjoying the river view by the Pearl River. D5: We visited Xiaozhou Village, an ancient village in Guangdong Province. It was an unexpected surprise, full of life and artistic atmosphere. Strolling around was very quiet and comfortable, and you could take pictures anywhere. D6: Return trip.

Where to eat garden dim sum in Guangzhou? Not Nanyuan or Beiyuan, but Panxi Restaurant. Elderly people with white hair, young people with their families, a pot of tea, chatting in Cantonese, leisurely, this is the tea culture of Guangzhou. Blind box dim sum, each different, matched by the chef, very innovative. Shrimp dumplings with thin and chewy skin, lightly bitten open, three shrimp are full and sweet. Steamed chicken feet, beef balls, and abalone siu mai are all specialties, and the standard is excellent. Litchi Bay boat porridge, the porridge base is smooth, shrimp, fried dough sticks, egg skin, fish fillets, floating skin, egg shreds, peanuts... very rich. For a long time, Panxi was the most important reception place in Guangzhou, and Guo Moruo also wrote a poem, which has a good sentence: "Every grain in the plate is hard work, and every pavilion outside the threshold is a picture."

A group of 8 people went to the famous Banxi Restaurant in Guangzhou for dinner, and the dinner was excellent as always. I found that mooncakes were on sale as Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, so I bought a box of white lotus paste with double yolks to try at home. The price was one-third of the mooncakes in Hong Kong, but the quality was higher than the common mooncakes in Hong Kong. The lotus seed paste is sweet and the egg yolk is oily, 10 points excellent, I must try it in Guangzhou next time when Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching! #Register as a hotel tester in August

#Guangzhou Victory Hotel #Panxi Restaurant #Youlian Restaurant #Linxianglou #High-speed Rail This time I took the high-speed rail from Hong Kong to Guangzhou and stayed at the Victory Hotel in Liwan District, which has a history of more than 100 years. I was lucky to book a shabby room, but it was still very convenient to visit Liwan District attractions. I have also experienced the huge difference in price and types between taxis and online-hailing cars in Guangzhou. Of course, online-hailing cars are the clear winners! It was my first time in Guangzhou, a gourmet city, and I just wanted to eat and go shopping. Panxi Restaurant has delicious food and a garden, you must go. You can just look at the entrance of Tao Tao Ju. The food is average and expensive, so it’s better not to try it. We went to the old Lin Heung House, which was also a good place. There were Ferris wheel dim sum, generous Liwan porridge, and special doll dim sum. They were delicious and not expensive. We went to Youlian Restaurant for dinner and had the best chicken in the world. It was really good! There was also a night cruise on the Pearl River. I took the 9pm one, and it was just great. Much better than the night view of Hong Kong. Features: Canton Tower is always changing its appearance🌃

Coming back to Panxi after decades, it feels different. The layout seems to be endless, and the decoration is much more upscale. There were still crowds of people having afternoon tea that day. I ordered Ichiqiao Baimai and fresh bamboo rolls, plus tea, it came to ¥77, which is quite expensive. When you go to Panxi, be sure to allow plenty of time. It will take at least 40 minutes for the dim sum to be served, not counting the time you have to wait outside. Basically, the fewer people, the faster. When you get to Banxi, it’s impossible not to take photos. #Panxi Restaurant #Guangzhou Travel
