⚠️ Pitfall Tips
Save money, time & hassle
Don't boil the beef
Different cuts need different timings—lean first, fatty after, 8–10 seconds in a strainer. Ask the staff if unsure.
Raw seafood: proceed with care
Delicious but risky for sensitive stomachs—don't eat on an empty stomach, pair with hot tea or baijiu, and start with a small portion.
Getting around Nan'ao
Toll for driving onto the island is about ¥96 one way, free on holidays for cars under 7 seats. Buses are sparse—drive or hire a car.
Shantou cheung fun ≠ Guangzhou's
Shantou's drawer-steamed rolls come with minced pork, egg and dried radish—totally different from Guangzhou's. Judge them on their own terms.
Speak Mandarin slowly
Locals speak Teochew; younger people manage Mandarin, elders may struggle. Speak slowly and point at menus.
