Why do you want eight bowls? First of all, the name is auspicious and the numbers are good. Secondly, eight bowls refer to eight kinds of dishes, which are usually served when rural people get married and children entertain guests (after the birth of the children). I eat a big table here, and the bottom line of rural catering is not to let guests gossip. This is because some people will make money in the name of catering, mostly afraid that their catering specifications will be reduced, and they will be discussed by villagers afterwards, thinking that they are making money in catering. Every year around the Spring Festival, we will attend many rural banquets. I attended seven or eight rural banquets around the Spring Festival this year, all of which were "four dishes and five bowls", with a total of nine dishes. Two years ago, some people liked 12 or 16 dishes, but they began to return and inherit the tradition in these two years.

When holding a dam banquet in rural areas, we should prepare in advance and mobilize neighbors, relatives and friends to help. The family is too busy, and the villagers in the village will come to help. Many hands make light work, and the dam banquet is a collective activity, and everyone has their own division of labor. Nine bowls is a tradition, and it is also a way for farmers to celebrate happy events and entertain relatives and friends in the era of less meat. This way is not only as simple as eating meat, but also a social form in rural areas. When eating, usually four cold dishes are served first. Then serve four bowls of dishes. Because these are quick, they are already ready. After that, it usually gets bigger. Meat, meatballs. Fish. A plate of prawns with noodles. Followed by cooking.

Four dishes, eight bowls and four dishes should actually be served first. The order of serving is four dishes and eight bowls. Four dishes are usually four dishes, which are only equivalent to appetizers in western food. Start serving eight bowls. First, prepare: the chef of nine bowls may be his own family or his cousin. Now he usually invites a professional assembly line team. Good chefs are generally handsome, make an appointment in advance and then ask for some red and white cases to help.
