　　The seafood salt Chepu and Luli Weir eateries have long been known for offering game meat. Nowadays, yellow quail and patterned chicken are the most famous, commonly referred to as “bird jerky.” Among them, yellow quail is especially prized for its delicious flavor.

　　There are two main cooking methods. One involves cutting the game meat into chunks and stir-frying it with a small amount of diced bamboo shoots, preserving the original wild taste—ideal for cooking and eating fresh. The other method is braising with sauce, using ingredients such as brown sugar, fennel, dark soy sauce, and cooking wine. The dish is simmered in its original broth for about fifteen minutes until fully cooked, resulting in excellent color, aroma, and taste. It is also convenient to carry, and many visitors to Nanbei Lake often buy it as a gift to take back for family and friends.
