Last week, my father and I went back to my hometown -Zibo in Shandong-to try Zibo barbecue（烧烤）.Recently，the local food has become so popular that people all over China travel there to taste it.

On the way to Zibo, my father told me a story. Last year during the COVID-19 pandemic （疫情），thousands of college students were stuck in Zibo. The local government helped students to get through that part of time and offered a great barbecue dinner when the quarantine（隔离） was over. The government officers also invited the students to come back to Zibo again when spring came. I was moved when I heard this.

At 5 pm, we arrived at the restaurant. My father had booked a table two days earlier. Otherwise, there wouldn't be any seats for us. There are some differences between Zibo's barbecue and the ones in other cities. Zibo＇s barbecue restaurants have a small grill（烤架）on each table. People need to cook on the grill by themselves. When the food is ready, you put it onto a small pancake, and then add some onions and sauce before eating.

People in the restaurant didn't know each other before. But we just talked naturally about daily life and sang together. The boss of the restaurant even danced. Some local people even put off their orders when they heard there weren't enough seats. They wanted tourists from other places to have the chance to eat.

After eating the delicious food, I kept thinking about why Zibo became popular. Is it the promise between the government and the college students, or the unusual, tasty food, or the warmhearted people?
