It is also the 27th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to the motherland.
On such an important day,
Let's find out together
Hong Kong's tea culture!
01. Hong Kong's tea-drinking culture has a long history
As we all know, Hong Kong is a fast-paced city, and Hong Kong people who pursue fast are not harsh in drinking tea, and they have to drink tea no matter how busy they are. Although Hong Kong is not a major tea-producing province, the fragrance of tea has been infiltrating this land for many years.
Hong Kong people have long had the habit of drinking tea. In 1845, Hong Kong had its first teahouse, "Sanyuan Building", and then successively opened a number of teahouses such as "Deyun Tea House" and "Tianxiang Building", gradually forming a teahouse area.
In the mid-50s of the 20th century, some restaurants began to operate tea markets, and morning tea was very popular in Hong Kong, where people usually bought a newspaper in the morning and read the newspaper while drinking tea in the tea house.
In the late 80s of the 20th century, a new way of drinking tea gradually emerged in Hong Kong - tea art, and a number of tea houses appeared, and people's way of drinking tea was more elegant and exquisite.
Tea drinking is one of the food cultures of Hong Kong people, and many Hong Kong people start their childhood with their elders in teahouses, and even many people feel uncomfortable when they don't drink a cup of tea in a teahouse for a day.
The first sentence that Hong Kong people say when they meet is often "", that is
Nowadays, Hong Kong is still inseparable from tea, restaurant snacks, banquets, birthday banquets, housewarming banquets, Lunar New Year banquets, and all kinds of pastries and foods.
02. Two pieces in one cup
Hong Kong people love to drink tea, and eating morning tea is a major manifestation of this. According to the Hong Kong Heritage Museum, "one cup" is a baked cup, or a gai cup, which means that a gai cup is used to make tea.
The "two pieces" refer to dim sum, and the special feature of the Hong Kong tea market is that the dim sum is abundant, concentrated on the culmination of the West, exquisite production technology, and pays attention to ingredients and processes. Common snacks include、、、、, in addition to 、、、 and so on, these are just dry snacks; Wet spots have 、、、...... From starters to desserts, there are all kinds of dishes, and it is really a pre-food abbot, and there are countless of them.
The prices of tea and dim sum for morning tea are not too outrageous, and ordinary Hong Kong citizens can afford them, so the tea house wine shop is always doing a hot business. On holidays, it is difficult to find a seat in some well-known teahouses without reservations.
03. You have to drink tea
Hong Kong people are busy but also very good at enjoying life.
In Hong Kong film and television dramas, there are often scenes of family fun and friends gathering together for morning tea, and they often say to their friends: "You have to drink tea." It means drinking tea together when you have free time. This is the most cordial and sincere invitation to a friend.
If you have to drink tea, you can drink tea at a roadside stall, or you can go to a tea restaurant or a larger restaurant, and then have a "cup or two", chat with two or three friends, and steal half a day of leisure.
04. Hong Kong people love tea, and they love Pu'er tea even more
Drinking tea, tea is, of course, one of the protagonists.
In a tea shop in Hong Kong, there was a couplet that wrote: "Pu'er Tieguanyin pine prayer and snow wakes up poetry and dreams; Longjing Biluo Spring Bamboo Courtyard is fragrant and turbid. "It can be seen that Pu'er tea is very popular in Hong Kong.
It is said that the birth of the modern concept of Pu'er tea and the development of new drinks began in Hong Kong. In the 70s of the last century, because of the demand for Pu'er tea from Hong Kong people, Yunnan people began to study the post-fermentation process; Because of the practice of Hong Kong people to preserve old tea, the dried green hair tea as a tea product can be preserved; Due to the spread of old tea in Hong Kong, the entire Chinese area has driven the pursuit of Pu'er tea and old tea.
In addition to Pu'er tea, Hong Kong's black tea culture is also a major feature. It originates in the United Kingdom. Savvy Hong Kong businessmen improved the fashion of the upper class and developed new ways to drink various black teas, such as silk stockings milk tea, mandarin duck milk tea, iced black tea, etc., and introduced black tea into restaurants, becoming the main drink in fast food restaurants.
