He is talking about Fangshan's eight or eight seats, which is a set of famous snacks in Yanqing County, Beijing. The most important thing for local people to get married is "eight or eight seats".

The "August 8th Banquet" is a unique banquet in Yanqing. Because of its large number of dishes, it is also known as the "Man-Han Banquet" among the people. In the past, eight or eight seats were the wedding banquets of Yanqing people, and they were only put out when such an important event as marriage was held. Don't underestimate it, only rich people could afford it at that time. In the past, people had no money to get married, so they could only put eight or six seats, that is, nine cold dishes, eight small bowls and six big bowls. Eight or eight seats circulated among the people in Yanqing have existed since the Ming and Qing Dynasties. At that time, the people of Manchu and Han celebrated the wedding banquet and the opening ceremony. In order to show hospitality, eight or eight seats were held, which was called "Manchu banquet" by the people.

The so-called "eight or eight seats" are the famous nine-pressure dishes, eight small bowls of vegetables and eight large bowls of vegetables. Jiuya dishes are cold dishes, three dried fruits and vegetables, three new fresh fruits and vegetables, and three meat (cooked food) dishes, which symbolizes the unity of Jiujiu and Jiuya table. Eight small bowls of vegetables are hot and cold, which means knowing cold and knowing hot; Eight bowls are served by steaming, stewing, frying, frying and cooking, which means happy reunion and great wealth.

Three dried cold dishes can be peanuts, almonds, walnuts, silkworm beans, cashews, etc. Three fresh fruits can be seasonal fruits and vegetables, tomatoes, cherries, dates, radishes, hawthorn, apples, pears and pickles; The three kinds of meat are generally pig liver, pig ears, sauce beef, self-filled sausage, salted duck eggs and so on.

Eight small bowls are usually stir-fried, with vegetarian dishes. Some places are almost vegetarian: vegetarian tofu, soy pickles, fried broad beans, fried shredded tomatoes, potato chips, fried tomatoes, sauerkraut powder, oily meat and shredded sweet potatoes.

Eight bowls are big dishes, mainly meat dishes, as well as vegetarian dishes, such as braised pork with black bean sauce, stewed mushrooms with white gourd and potato powder, braised radish, braised pork with bean curd, home-cooked fish pieces, egg soup and meatball soup.

The staple foods are jiaozi, steamed stuffed bun, red bean rice, millet porridge, bonzi porridge, potato cake, small fire, small oil cake and other special farmhouse meals. Jiaozi is stuffed with sauerkraut, which is slightly spicy and delicious. Porridge is a big stick, and there are big kidney beans in porridge, which is delicious; Steamed buns, small fires, small oil cakes and potato cakes are all pocket-sized, delicate and delicious.

The name Babaxi is auspicious, and every dish has a beginning, which is auspicious. For example, cold dishes such as pig liver, pig ears and vegetable intestines are collectively called "sweetheart" and also called "clean". These nine cold dishes together are called "99 ratio 1", which means reunion. The meat piers and strips in the eight bowls are solid and the weather is good. Eight small bowls and eight large bowls are also called safe and sound. Let the guests eat in their mouths and listen in their ears. However, the eight or eight seats have a strong sense of form, and the table is full of cups and dishes, but the dishes are basically some common farm dishes, and the cooking is not very particular. Many dishes are stewed in a big pot, and bowls are served, so how many tables of guests stay at the same time will not be anxious.
