Watching the food column on TV recently can’t help but remind me of the food in old Jinan. Although they are just some fragmented concepts, the love, color, and taste are so tempting and unforgettable. It can be regarded as a kind of nostalgia!

Early, of course, the liberation of Jinan is the first time to drink So sweet. I grew up in the old city, and the best place to eat sweet foam is Lei's porridge shop. There is also "Tian Mo" prepared next to the porridge bucket. After serving the porridge, sprinkle some cowpeas and red beans on top. It tastes particularly delicious; of course, Fengjia Tianmo from Guanyi Street is also pretty good.

For lunch, don’t forget rice, dried rice, and meat. In addition to the Zhaojiagan Rice Shop in the Grand View Garden, this traditional delicacy is mostly found in small vendors in the city. At that time, it was reserved for Beiyuan rice. Next to it stood a copper soup pot that was steaming and fragrant, containing meat, eggs, and tofu. , gluten, etc. The meat is of course made of five layers of "five flowers" and is tied with straw rope or hemp rope to keep it in its original shape to prevent it from falling apart, hence the name "handful of meat". Most people just ate a small bowl and a piece of meat, gluten, etc. to satisfy their cravings. In those days, this was considered high-quality and high-priced consumption.
