Chefs offer diners range of seasonal delights Before dawn, fishermen in Laizhou, a city in Yantai, Shandong province, start the day by catching shrimp off the Jiaodong Peninsula. They are seeking what local people refer to as the "peach blossom shrimp"－a delicacy that can be found only in spring. "The shrimp were given this name because peach blossom time, from late January to early April, is the best period to eat them," said Gao Jing, brand marketing manager for Lu Style, a Beijing restaurant chain specializing in Shandong cuisine. Gao said people in Laizhou are only allowed to buy peach blossom shrimp at local markets on a first-come, first-served basis, as diners elsewhere in China, and even in the city, may not have tried the delicacy.
