Failing that, why don't you try your own hand at cooking up a Cantonese storm at home? Try making Mama Cheung’s homemade turnip cake, fish fillet with sweetcorn rice, or steamed pork ribs with black bean sauce.

Relatively new to the food 'gramming game, this account posted for the first time in March 2019 and since then has gone on to post about mouth-watering Asian dishes of all sorts. Some of the dishes to ogle at include Cantonese salted fish fried rice or braised pork and eggplant dish. There are also Indonesian pineapple tarts and Korean ram-don (jjapaguri with steak) inspired by the Oscar-winning film Parasite, as this dish was made during one of the movie’s key scenes. If all this wasn't enough, Yummeth also has an inspiring catalogue of Youtube videos that aspiring chefs can cook along to.
