Zibo is one of the important birthplaces of Lu cuisine - a point that many people have questioned. However, as we all know, today's Zibo, is the year ranked in the Spring and Autumn five hegemony, the seven warring states of Qi's capital city, then how prosperous, can be imagined. Pipe - extravagance" has said: "food and drink, extravagant music, the people's wishes. Sufficient to their desires, support their wishes, then can use the ear." The general meaning is that only by satisfying the people's needs for food and clothing, can they be properly driven. Although this is to maintain the feudal rule of the state policy, but with the modern "stimulate consumption, expanding domestic demand" to promote economic development of the Keynesian economic outlook is different.
In addition, Zibo is blessed with natural resources for agricultural development. With a mild climate, four distinct seasons, and close proximity to the Yellow River Basin, Zibo has abundant water and fertile soil brought by the Yellow River, and is known as "Jiangnan in the North", with a great abundance of produce (especially fruits and vegetables). A large country with a prosperous economy and abundant produce is bound to have a highly developed food and beverage industry. So, regardless of where the source of Lu Cuisine is, Lu Cuisine can develop and grow, and has been passed down to the present day, become the eight cuisines in the "big brother" (of course, did not say that Lu Cuisine is the first of the eight cuisines of the meaning of this thing, food, difficult to adjust to the mouth, see the wisdom of the people) the general existence of the inevitable less than we will eat, can eat, love to eat the people of Zibo's credit.
The past can not be traced, even now in Zibo, leaving aside the orthodox Lu cuisine, there are countless local cuisine: Boshan fried meat, Boshan tofu box, Zhoucun cooking pot, Yiyuan pancakes, raw mix Matahu white lotus root, sweet and sour yellow river carp ...... In fact, these foods are more or less with the shadow of some Lu cuisine, not more than the Jiangnan water show contains a fine delicate, but there is a unique atmosphere of weight, full of flavor, fully embodies the city of Zibo's warmth and boldness.
Now, and then look back at the "Zibo cafeteria wonderful night", you will find that it has English subtitles, I think, this should imply that Zibo has read and understand the differences between ancient and modern Chinese and foreign culture and thinking of a high degree of tolerance and openness of the importance of this mouth-watering "wonderful night", is a big step towards the world of Zibo it.
