Overview

In Xishuangbanna, people love to eat "Xinhuo," a local delicacy made of raw pig blood, which may seem like a "dark cuisine" that locals enjoy while others avoid it. Meanwhile, for people from Shandong, scallions are essential. The owner of "Goryeo BBQ" is a great teacher to his apprentices but an outstanding husband to his wife, representing a typical Shandong husband. Yunnan BBQ, on the other hand, believes that everything can be dipped in water.
