Guangzhou is a representative city，cradle and big camp of the Cantonese Cuisine. Therefore，it is quite natural for Guangzhou to apply for the World “City of Gastronomy”. On the one hand，Guangzhou has participated in culture diversity protection activities held by international NGOs，actively carried forward the fine food culture of the Chinese nation，demonstrated the food culture worldwide，and displayed the Cantonese Cuisine in the international arena. On the other hand，Guangzhou can apply for the World “City of Gastronomy” by creating a creative city network revolving around delicacy brands to promote development of Guangzhou's creative industries，optimize Guangzhou's city brand image，and improve Guangzhou's innovation and culture soft power. To sum up，all this can create a new opportunity for Guangzhou's building of a hub-type network city.
