Night porridge

Eating night porridge has a long history. People's beginner Ding started a porridge party on 1923. Every porridge night, he would invite his close friends to gather in rice porridge. It is said that I have porridge to wrap my stomach with and old friends to talk to. I really love this indifferent life. Shi Ding is famous for keeping fit, but I can't stand the loneliness of lack of porridge and water. Often after midnight, I go to Jia, order mandarin fish and bone porridge. The porridge is sweet, and the fish slices are dipped in soy sauce, which is a kind of enjoyment at night. Liu Hua porridge court will go after the nightclub tour, because it is one of the few restaurants in the city that are open all night. Its main feature lies in the self-service porridge nest, and eating porridge in the way of "cooking while eating" can be described as double Guangdong flavor. Recently, I often work overtime all night. Changpu porridge shop is called "Zhoujiazhuang", which is a Chaozhou seafood casserole porridge shop located in Tianhe Lin and Xiheng Road. Although there is only one small shop, the decoration has its own style. There are many kinds of seafood, so you can make your own porridge. At the bottom of the porridge is Chaozhou porridge, which pays attention to granular powder and moderate hardness. Because there was no more food in the shop, I hesitated before waiting for porridge, for fear of not filling my stomach. Fortunately, the confidence of the store is not blind. After drinking a pot of porridge, we were satisfied. The greater pleasure lies in the joy of combining seafood, this time it is sand shrimp and eel, and next time it is frog Gaza Bai? "Eating porridge at night" has another allusion in Guangzhou slang. Because at that time, there were always some big apprentices who learned better in the martial arts school, and at night they had to replace the master to teach the little apprentices who had just started to practice basic skills. In order to reward them, Jenny cooks porridge and makes midnight snack for them every night. Therefore, anyone who eats porridge overnight in the martial arts school has a certain martial arts foundation. "Eating porridge for the night" also means having two sons.

It is said that in those days, the martial arts school often practiced after meals, and the practitioners were very tired after practicing. When Jenny (the master is teaching Kung Fu) is free, she will prepare a pot of rice porridge and some food for the practitioners to eat after practice. The word "porridge at night" in Guangzhou dialect comes from this. In Guangdong Wutan, martial arts is commonly known as "eating porridge at night", which is named after the orthodox martial arts time in Guangdong folk customs is at night. Nowadays, with the improvement of people's living standards, there are many entertainment projects in the evening, and Wushu is considered to be "of little effect". The orthodox scene of "eating porridge at night" in the Pearl River Delta is rare.

Eating porridge after midnight means "learning a little martial arts". This is because people who used to practice martial arts were more diligent and usually practiced until midnight. At this time, Jenny will cook a pot of porridge to reward the apprentice, so there is such a saying.
