One Food, One City: Mountains, Rivers, and Humanity in the Flavor of Linyi

Linyi Fried Chicken:No chicken leaves Linyi alive. "For fried chicken nationwide, look no further than Shandong, and for fried chicken in Shandong, look no further than Linyi." Free-range roosters are diced and stir-fried with Yimeng mountain peppercorns and over 30 herbs, the sauce seePing into the bones. The chicken is bright red and firm, and the broth soaks up the sweet potato buns, creating a hearty dish that's so flavorful it's even on the bone.

Sa Tang: A simmering nostalgia for a millennium of meat soup—before nightfall, the streets of Linyi are already filled with a rich, spicy aroma. Mian—a bowl of meat soup simmered for hours with beef bones and old hens, then thickened with wheat kernels and black pepper—is an unwavering morning ritual for the people of Linyi. As the boiling broth pours into the bowl, the slices of meat unfurl, the egg flowers bloom like golden chrysanthemums, and a sprinkle of cilantro adorns the dish. The heat, spice, fragrance, and richness wash over the tongue. Paired with freshly baked baozi (pork cakes) or fried dough sticks, each sip of soup and a bite of pancake creates a hearty, exhilarating experience, like Wu Song fighting the tiger. Legend has it that Emperor Qianlong, during his southern tour, first tasted this dish and asked, "What is this?"—hence the name.

Yimeng Whole Lamb Soup: A milky-white epic simmered for eight hours. Yimeng black goats, bones and offal, are placed in a large pot and slowly simmered for eight hours with mountain spring water, resulting in a milky-white soup with no hint of mutton. Sprinkled with cilantro and peppercorns, it's served with grilled lamb. A bowl of this soup after a hike in Mengshan dispels cold and dampness. Gourmets often add lamb brain and blood to complete the "whole lamb feast."

Yimeng Jianbing: A thin, intangible cultural heritage pancake that encompasses mountains and rivers. A stone mill gently turns, a multi-grain batter is spread on the griddle, and a stroke of bamboo creates a golden, thin pancake as thin as a cicada's wing. Made with dried sweet potatoes, corn, and millet, Yimeng Jianbing is highly recommended by "A Bite of China" as a "roll-anything" creation. Rolled with scallions and dipping sauce, it offers a simple, rustic flavor; wrapped in chili and scrambled eggs, it creates a carb-fueled feast. It also carries memories of the revolutionary movement—during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, women made pancakes to support the front lines and deliver rations. Today, this slightly sweet pancake, sweetened with Mengshan honey, has become a symbol of intangible cultural heritage.

SDLG: a construction machinery giant that has gone from the old Yimeng area to the world. From Yimeng Old Area to the World: 50 Years of Leapfrog Development. The entrepreneurial history of SDLG Construction Machinery Co., Ltd. (referred to as "SDLG") began in Linyi City in 1972. Its predecessor was Linyi Machinery Factory, which had only "one workshop, one drawing, and 173 people". In the barren old area of Yimeng, the older generation of temporary workers relied on hand drawn drawings and independent research and development to successfully trial produce the first Z450 loader in 1976. This established the development direction dominated by engineering machinery and laid the foundation for the enterprise gene of "focusing on independent research and development"
