Zhurou Po
Ronggui, Shunde
The most famous private kitchen in Shunde - 'Pork Lady's' family dining room, where Cantonese cooking reaches its peak.
Zhurou Po ('Pork Lady') is the restaurant that made Shunde - already China's unofficial capital of eating - a pilgrimage site. The boss lady built her reputation one family-style dish at a time, and her dining room now serves the definitive versions of Shunde's greatest hits: claypot fish head, stir-fried river prawns, and the legendary 'boiled' chicken.
The house is a real private kitchen - a converted family home, the boss on the floor, tables booked days ahead. It is loud, generous, and unforgettable, the single best reason to take the train from Guangzhou to Shunde.
Best for: Shunde's most famous private kitchen, worth the trip alone.
