VIDEO│British anchor Alex show you "Authentic Wenzhou Snacks" —— Fish Cake
Speaking of Wenzhou people’s favorite home-cooked dish, fish dishes must be on the list. For Wenzhou people, there is one more reason why they like to eat fish is that because the word “fish”(in Chinese Pinyin: Yu)has a homophony with Chinese character “余”(also in Chinese Pinyin: Yu). And the Chinese idiom “年年有余” means the life get better year by year. So, fish is an auspicious sigh in Chinese culture.
