The food in Guangzhou is very classic and delicate, and Cantonese cuisine has been the first of the famous Chinese cuisines since ancient times.
Generally, tourists who come to Guangzhou for the first time will go to Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street and Beijing Street Food Street. But the local people there don&;t think so. They think the food is not authentic, and it is a bit popular.
I recommend that you must go to the vicinity of xiguan big house in Liwan District, where there are many authentic local cuisines in the old town of Guangzhou, which will leave you with endless aftertaste in glad you came!
