Sichuan cuisine developed mainly in Sichuan Province (in the western interior of China), including Chongqing and Chengdu.
Because it is not located by the sea, there are not many fresh seafood dishes, and it is famous for its spicy dishes that use many spices such as chili peppers and hwasanjang pepper.
Except for Toki, which is small in size, the other restaurants offer a sufficient variety of non-spicy dishes, so even those who don’t like spicy food can go in without worry.

Cantonese cuisine originated in southern China, which has a warm climate and is close to the sea. As a result, the cuisine developed due to the abundance of vegetables and seafood.
In this region, delicious soup stock is made from dried marine products such as scallops, and the flavors of the ingredients are used to create a variety of dishes.
Unlike Szechuan cuisine, which is characterized by spiciness, there are many elegant light flavors of soy sauce-based dishes, which many people may find rather similar to Japanese food.
