 Of
all China's regional cuisines, that of Canton province in Southern
China is generally recognized to be one of the finest and has
been considered so for centuries.
Freshness is the keyword in Cantonese cuisine. Cooked foods must
look as if they have just been harvested, plucked, or caught from
the ocean, lakes and rivers. Judicious usage of natural oils and
garnishes emphasizes every dish's gleaming freshness, and the
cooking methods enhance rather than smother the ingredients' inherent
qualities.
Steaming, roasting, pan-frying, stir frying, deep frying, baking,
braising, and Barbecuing are among the best known cooking methods
of Canton. At the Ruby Rouge Restaurant, our Cantonese specialties
include mouth-watering Barbequed pork, duck and chicken roasted
daily in our ovens using techniques that are centuries old, and
tantalizing seafood taken fresh from our tanks.
