'Floating restaurants' on the Tanka fish rafts of Xincun Port: ingredients are caught fresh from the harbor — mud crabs, flower crabs, sea-urchin steamed egg and grouper, steamed or blanched Tanka-style; Tanka boat congee, simmered from minced catch, is the daily staple of these water-dwelling families. You reach the rafts by boat, and dinner amid the fishing lights is a 'dining on the water' experience unique to Lingshui.
