Chapter 739: What is a Foodie?

"Huh, why are we still at the beach?" Li Shenxing, who woke up, looked out of the car window and suddenly became puzzled. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

Hearing Li Shenxing's words, Xiaoli, who also stretched out her head to look out, also noticed that something was wrong, she pointed to a shop outside the car window and said, "Yes, look at the café opposite, isn't it the café we had afternoon tea just now!"

"I said, you won't just drive around here for an hour, right?" Li Shenxing looked at the director sitting in the co-pilot with the eyes of looking at Fukai Bing.

And the husband of Filial Piety cast a puzzled look, she really couldn't understand the point of such an approach.

"Ahem!" The director was a little embarrassed by their eyes, but he still endured the strange gaze of the two and explained: "Originally, our next destination was Koreatown, but due to some unexpected circumstances, the restaurant we were going to was closed, and after an emergency meeting of the production team, it was decided to return to Santa Monica Beach, so today's dinner has changed from barbecue to seafood dinner." ”

After saying that, the director still had an expression of what you have earned, but when he saw that Lee Shin-xing and Hyo-ri were not very enthusiastic about it, the director had to turn his head back stupidly.

He forgot that for Lee Shin-xing and Hyo-ri, who live in South Korea all year round, seafood is really not a rare thing.

"By the way, how can you count the task that only half of the task was completed just now?" At this time, Li Shenxing suddenly remembered the mission they had escaped halfway before.

"Of course that task was not completed!" the director replied as a matter of course.

Xiaoli was not convinced, and defended: "How can it be regarded as unfinished? How can we say that we are also half done." ”

"That's right, director, isn't it a bit inhumane for you to deny all our efforts in one bite?" Li Shenxing also stood up and defended their interests with his wife, "Even if you can't get all the bonuses, you have to give us half of them~!"

"Yes, we can't let our efforts go to waste. ”

"If the director thinks it's too hurtful to talk about money, then ......"

Hearing this, the director couldn't help but be attracted by Li Shenxing's words, as a 'hostile' party, he must protect his own interests as much as possible.

"Then we'll treat you to dinner today, but we won't care about it when we pay the bill. ”

“......”

The mood suddenly fell to the bottom, in the final analysis, it is not for us to pay, the director pouted very unhappily, but when he thought that today's purpose was actually to let the four couples come out to play, and the task was simply an excuse, so he nodded and agreed to Li Shenxing's proposal.

"Yay~!" Li Shenxing excitedly high-fived his wife and celebrated.

It's one thing to pay for it yourself, it's another thing to let the 'enemy' pay, especially if the 'stingy' director is reluctant but has to take out his wallet to pay, which makes Li Shenxing and Xiaoli feel a sense of accomplishment.

"Let's go, I'll invite you to dinner. Li Shenxing said heroically, regardless of the fact that it was still a little early before dinner time, he pulled Xiaoli out of the car, and then took Luo Jun and VJ to get off the bus and go to the Babu Agan Shrimp Restaurant on the beach pier of Santa Monica Beach.

Forrest Gump Shrimp Restaurant, full name in English, is a seafood restaurant chain restaurant inspired by the shrimp fishing fleet named after Forrest Gump and his comrade-in-arms Babu in the Hollywood movie Forrest Gump, which won the 67th Academy Award for Best Picture in 1994.

Two years after the film's release, the American Pretty restaurant group obtained a license from Paramount Pictures to use some of Forrest Gump's trademarks, industry logos and copyrights to open the first Forrest Gump shrimp restaurant in Monterey, California.

It was the first themed restaurant to be developed from a film and television production, and since then, Forrest Gump has been as successful as the movie "Forrest Gump", not only expanding to other cities in the United States, but also opening branches in Mexico, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Japan, Hong Kong and other places.

Standing at the door, you can see a big Babu Forrest Gump shrimp signboard, anyone who has watched the movie knows that this signboard is the LOGO designed by Forrest Gump when he opened the Babu Forrest Gump shrimp company in the movie, and many times Forrest Gump wears a baseball cap with this LOGO, and the whole restaurant is a reproduction of the "Forrest Gump" movie.

The decoration outside the door of the "Babu Agan Shrimp" store is a classic scene of Forrest Gump sitting on a bench waiting for the bus at the beginning of the movie, which is all too familiar to movie fans. A bench with a suitcase with a box of chocolates tied with ribbons on it, a pair of Nike running shoes in front of the bench that he had been running for 3 years, 2 months, 14 days and 16 hours, and a falling feather on his dirty sneakers.

Although they have tasted it more than once in various 'Babu Agan shrimp' restaurants in the United States, but in the end, they still feel that the taste of the Bab Agan shrimp restaurant on the beach pier of Santa Monica Beach is the most suitable for them, so every time they come here, they can't help but sit on this bench together and take a group photo as a souvenir.

If you're lucky, you'll see Tom Hanks, the actor who plays Forrest Gump, or someone else who looks like him, sitting on a bench, hee-hee, don't be shy at this time, be brave enough to come up and take a photo with him!

At the entrance of the restaurant, there is a single table for Forrest Gump to practice table tennis, as well as costumes and props for characters in the movie, the skirt worn by Forrest Gump's mother when she was young, Jenny's guitar and the robe worn when she was wandering, and Forrest Gump's white suit...... Movie posters and props are plastered all over the walls of the restaurant, and Forrest Gump's story is played on the TV screen.

Walking into the restaurant, you can see the table everywhere, and the wall is full of Forrest Gump's classic quotes, and the most familiar is the sentence that Forrest Gump always likes to say, "Lifeislikeaboxofchocolates... Youneverknowwhatyou'regoingtoget"Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what the next piece will taste like.

On each dining table there is a blue and red table tennis game scoring sign, blue is written "Run.Forrest.Run", this sentence throughout the movie, Jenny has been shouting "Run.Forrest.Run" to Forrest Gump since she was a child, has been inspiring Forrest Gump to keep running forward, running into the baseball team, table tennis championship, Vietnam War, running all over the United States...... When you order food or need service, just flip the sign to the red "Stop.Forrest.Stop" and the drink list is made like a ping-pong racket.

The luck of their group was very good, there was actually a vacant position by the window where they could enjoy the sea, and without much to say, Li Shenxing hurriedly led everyone straight over.

'Babu Agan Shrimp' is a western-style restaurant, with shrimp-themed American cuisine based on southern American and cajun flavors!

Forrest Gump shrimp, this is a must-order dish, almost every table has a bucket, the hot prawns will be served, the waiter will pour it heroically after serving it, the rich juice mixed with the tender shrimp meat is suddenly scattered on the newspaper, lined under the shrimp is a specially printed newspaper, the newspaper is a compilation of newspaper clippings of Forrest Gump and his family's life memorabilia, which has to be admired and admired, every detail in the restaurant is carefully contained with the theme culture of Forrest Gump's movie.

Pork bones, American-style secret pork bones, a very large portion, with a French fries knife and fork lightly dismantled, the meat mixed with the rich sauce will automatically detach from the bones, and it tastes good with black pepper or BBQ sauce, and the fries here are more delicious than other places, they don't feel greasy, and they are not too delicious with tomato sauce!

Cheese paella, there are a lot of prawns in the paella, the taste of cheese is also very heavy, with chopped mushrooms and carrots, the taste is amazing~!

There are five of them, so you can order and eat as much as you want, and you don't have to worry about running out of food, which is a very large portion.

Li Shenxing ordered spicy Forrest Gump shrimp, French fries and fried shrimp, smorgasbord platter, shrimp Italian straight pattern flower powder, vegetable salad, fried shrimp balls, so many things should be enough for them to eat, if not enough to eat, then continue to order, but waste is not good.

The waiters in the store are very enthusiastic, and they are all very cute, they will interact with the guests when eating, ask questions related to the details of the movie, and answer the right ones and give small gifts, which is really very interesting, Li Shenxing and Xiaoli answered two questions correctly, and got two small gifts that were given immediately, which were keychains and refrigerator magnets related to the movie, and the two of them liked this little gift very much, and happily played for a while before putting it in the bag.

How can a restaurant like this, which not only has good food, but also familiar elements of episodic movies, not be liked by movie enthusiasts and foodies like Li Shenxing?

According to Li Shenxing, he wishes that his house is surrounded by such themed restaurants, so that he can taste different foods every day.

In the end, it's still for eating~!

It's really a foodie~!
