Clay Pot Rice Specialists in Xiangzhou (煲仔饭)

Guangdong-style clay pot rice (煲仔饭) cooked over charcoal is a signature cold-weather comfort food, and Zhuhai's old Xiangzhou neighbourhood has several streets lined with specialists open from noon until midnight. Classic combinations include waxed duck and sausage (腊味煲仔饭), salted fish and pork patty (咸鱼肉饼), and preserved pork belly with century egg. A full clay pot for two people costs CNY 35-65 (approx. HKD 38-70). Dianping rates the best establishments 4.5/5; locals queue in lines of 20-30 people at dinner on weekends. Xiaohongshu users insist "the crust at the bottom of the pot (锅巴) is the best part — scrape it up last."
