Eight plates of meat are ordinary eight plates, and the so-called eight plates of sea are actually called "eight plates of sea" because the Hui people prohibit pork, so they add "seafood" instead of sea cucumber and abalone in their dishes. Generally speaking, eight plates do not include the whole plate, and they are usually served.
