Brief description
menu from restaurant in Shenzhen serving regional cuisines from across China
Gallery label
  • Graphic designer Huang Yang thinks the regional diversity of Shenzhen’s population make up is best reflected in the city’s culinary offerings. As commented on elsewhere in the exhibition, a large portion of Shenzhen’s workforce moved here from other parts of China. With few family ties, many eat out on a daily basis. Nearly every Chinese restaurant, regardless of their advertised regional specialism, serves some dishes from Hunan and Sichuan, the homes of a significant portion of Shenzhen’s migrant residents. Suggested by Huang Yang, graphic designer(2013)
  • Restaurant menus and table accessories 2013 The menus and accessories collected in various areas of Shenzhen show how restaurants adapt – in their dishes options and sometimes even with visual design elements – to give migrant residents a taste of home. (2013)
