About the Dish

Sweet and Sour Pork, known as "Gu Lao Rou" in Chinese, holds the distinction of being one of the earliest Chinese dishes to gain international acclaim. Its origins trace back to the Guangdong province, which was also the first port of call for Western travellers during the Qing Dynasty. Thanks to its delightful combination of sweet and tangy flavours, it quickly captivated the palates of Westerners, introducing them to the captivating realm of Chinese sweet and sour cuisine.

As time passed, this dish evolved, with the traditional blend of black vinegar and sugar being enhanced by the addition of zesty lemon juice and fruit-based sauces. The introduction of pineapple further elevated the dish, infusing it with an additional layer of fragrance that complemented the succulent pork perfectly. Soon, Chinese restaurants worldwide began serving this delectable creation, propelling the sweet and sour style to global prominence.

Today, you can encounter a variety of sweet and sour dishes on Chinese takeaway menus, many of which have been tailored to suit Western tastes. However, it's important to note that Sweet and Sour Pork, originating in China, remains the quintessential embodiment of this culinary style. It is an absolute must-try for anyone seeking an authentic and delicious taste of Chinese cuisine.
