摘　　要：Guangdong, as one of the many tourist attractions in China, has gained increasing popularity among travelers around the globe. The image of the place is by and large determined by several respects, among which, the most prominent is no other than the food, Cantonese cuisine, whose dish names are usually rich in metaphors. This paper aims to analyze the metaphors embedded deeply in the dish names, with hope to decipher the mapping from the source domain, or the metaphorical image, to the target do?main, so as to help deliver a viable solution to translate them, and improve the image of Cantonese cuisine.
