Why is Dixian cuisine so good r/banter? I honestly feel like it's one of the best in the world, easily going toe-to-toe with stuff like Mexican, Italian, Japanese, etc in terms of purely how much good stuff there is. Maybe not better than those three, but able to be compared to them based on complex and developed the foods are. I feel like it's super, super underrated.
