Food and Beverages

Qingdao is rich in precious sea cucumber, scallop, abalone, conch, prawn and Cargill, which determines the characteristics of Qingdao cooking with seafood as the main raw material. The traditional banquets in Qingdao are particular, and the common specifications are "4 16" and "428". The order of serving requires cold before hot, salty before sweet, and each table must have fish. Without sea cucumber, it is not a big table. Eating seafood depends on the season. Spring and summer are the best seasons, which will definitely make you never want to eat meat again. Of course, we should also be careful. Many tourists who come to Qingdao for the first time can't stand the temptation of seafood and eat too much. The result ... (you can imagine).

Qingdao has a large seafood table with northern characteristics, as well as various snacks with Shandong characteristics. Pasta is overwhelming, and the heat in jiaozi is boiling. Northern food tastes heavy and needs good digestion. Famous chefs gather in Qingdao, and there are many delicious foods. Tsingtao beer and Laoshan mineral spring are well-known at home and abroad. It tastes really good!

Qingdao is a city with low prices in China. Its products are not only seashore products, but also packaged food with Shandong characteristics. We should be careful when buying tourist goods, but we will abuse them in many ways.

Shopping in Shandong is difficult to bargain, on the one hand, it is not very expensive, on the other hand, Shandong people are unwilling to waste their breath. Try not to bring seafood after a big local meal, because it is difficult to keep seafood fresh.
