... and so I reach the end of my quest.
I have covered 26 distinct cuisines here (but there are countless subcategories.
There are more provinces but they are mostly very similar do their neighbours and I don't think merit a 'cuisine' category of their own.
Hong Kong and Macao I'm leaving out, too. When they are being Chinese they are predominantly Cantonese but are also heavily influenced by Europe and beyond, particularly the UK for HK and Portuguese for Macao.
Finally, the cuisine my home region of Guangxi has its own topic here where I've dived deeper.
