Chiuchow cuisine, Teochew cuisine or Chaozhou cuisine (潮州菜; pinyin: Cháozhōu cài) originates from Chiuchow (now called 'Chaozhou'), a city of China in Guangdong Province, not far from Canton.
Chiuchow cuisine is particularly well known for its seafood and its vegetarian dishes.
Chiuchow cuisine is also known for serving rice soup (潮州糜), in addition to steamed rice with meals, which is quite different from Cantonese porridge or congee which is very thick and gluey.
