Brand Story
Liuzhou Hotel traces its roots to the mid-20th century in Liuzhou, Guangxi. Founded in 1952, it was one of the city's earliest state-owned hotels, tasked with hosting foreign guests and important conferences. The hotel gathered renowned local chefs, blending northern and southern Guangxi culinary styles to create a distinctive flavor profile centered on local ingredients like river snails and pickled bamboo shoots. Key figure Huang Deming, the first executive chef, refined the traditional snail soup recipe, making Luosifen the hotel's signature dish. Over the decades, Liuzhou Hotel has witnessed the city's transformation from an industrial hub to a tourist destination. Its dishes carry the taste memories of Liuzhou residents and represent an important part of Guangxi cuisine culture. Combining traditional craftsmanship with modern management, it stands as a living heritage of Liuzhou's dining culture.
