Chapter 108: A Strong Sense of Belonging
At six o'clock in the evening, Shan Huatang and the princess took their parents out of the hotel to eat.
Although the hotel offers free breakfast, lunch and dinner, they still want to eat local specialties.
Since I've been in the car for a day during the day, I just want to walk around at this time.
A family of four walked on the road in a foreign land, the same asphalt road, but it was a different scenery, and the mood was naturally different.
I searched the Internet for nearby food, and there is a Manfeilong roast chicken restaurant with a very good online review.
The princess took the idea, "Let's go here." ”
The four of them followed the prompts on the map and found the restaurant.
Entering the door, the waiter was very welcoming.
"Hello, how many?"
Shan Huatang replied, "There is no one behind us. ”
The waiter's face was embarrassed, knowing that it was because of the difference in eyesight, and asked a question that lowered his IQ.
"This way, please. ”
Since the south side is by the window, there is a river outside the window, and there will be a cool breeze.
So the princess chose to sit by the window.
Sit down and look at the menu.
There are not many dishes, only a dozen, which is not much different from other restaurants, and the only and biggest difference may be the grilled chicken.
But when you come out to play, dinner is an appetizer, and the night market is the main course.
So after simply choosing a few dishes, I asked the waiter to place an order.
Half an hour later, the four of them came out of the restaurant.
Shan Huaqiang's first sentence was: "Don't come in the future." ”
Feng Jinhua sighed, "Alas, it cost a lot of money again." ”
Shan Huatang was speechless, in fact, this meal is not expensive, it is much cheaper than the lunch meal, but the taste is not a little worse.
Sure enough, the taste in this cottage is authentic!
By this time, it was already dark and the street lights were on.
The nightlife of Nishitakuna Gaozhuang began.
A group of four people headed east.
Along the way, cars came and went.
Few tourists choose to walk like they do, and most choose to take the hotel's sightseeing shuttle.
After walking a little and a half kilometer, you will be able to see the Shwedagon Pagoda glowing in the dark.
In the distance, a dense crowd was seen.
Obviously, there were already a lot of people who got here before them.
Walk around the Shwedagon Pagoda with the many tourists who come here to see the bustling night market hidden behind the Shwedagon Pagoda.
As far as you can see from above, there are people underneath the colorful and countless small tents.
Even from a distance, you can hear the sounds of communication and music coming from the night market.
If you look at it from the sky, this night market is definitely the most lively place in Xilong Banna.
As the most famous night market in Xilong Banna, it is worthy of the name of starlight.
The four of Shan Huatang walked down the crowd.
First I walked to a side street, which is called a side street because it is really small.
The side streets are lined with stalls on both sides.
There are those who sell snacks, and there are those who sell small pendants and clothing.
The food is familiar to Shan Huatang and others, sizzling tofu, spicy chicken feet, sausages, coconut, coconut green and the like, which are not distinctive.
The pendant is a pendant with a more local style, which has commemorative significance.
As for the costumes, they are popular costumes, which are probably for those who come to play but don't have enough clothes.
Shan Huatang bought two coconuts and asked for four straws.
One for the princess and one for the parents.
The princess took a sip of fresh coconut, then handed it to Shan Huatang and asked Shan Huatang to take a sip as well.
Shan Huatang took a sip, and it was not as sweet as other fruits, but that kind of sweetness.
"The coconut water we usually drink is seasoned, this is a natural drink, and the taste is definitely not as good as coconut water. ”
Feng Jinhua first sucked herself, and then smashed her mouth.
"Old man, I think it tastes weird, take a sip and take a look. ”
As he spoke, he handed over the coconut.
Shan Huaqiang hurriedly pushed it away.
"If you want to drink, I won't. ”
He had only drunk bottled coconut water before, and he thought it was not tasty, it was too sweet.
At this time, I heard the old woman say that it was weird, so don't drink it.
Whoever likes to drink drinks, he doesn't drink anyway.
Five minutes later, Shan Huaqiang was holding a big coconut and sucking it happily.
Take a puff and exclaim, "What a good thing!"
Feng Jinhua on the side rolled her eyes.
"Who is it, I said not to drink it at first, but this is the second one, and my old face is not hot. ”
Shan Huaqiang laughed, "I'm thirsty." ”
A group of four people walked into the night market.
As soon as you step into that circle, the rich fragrance comes to your nose.
Mainly barbecue flavor!
That's right, most of the food here is barbecue.
It is worth mentioning that the barbecue stalls are all set up by women wearing ethnic minority clothes.
It is said that in their home, the woman is responsible for making money, and the man is responsible for washing and cooking, which is often referred to as eating soft rice.
But this is their tradition, and others don't find it strange.
Shan Huatang is like discovering a new world.
He has always wanted to advocate that men can eat soft rice, but he didn't expect that there is a group here that has fully implemented such a concept, and it has been a hundred years!
"It turns out that the organization is here. ”
It's like suddenly finding a long-lost family, a strong sense of belonging!
What does this mean? It shows that his idea is feasible and there is nothing wrong with it!
He is not walking this road alone.
"In the future, we must let the old side and them come here to learn about it. ”
The four of them started to visit the night market.
Although the barbecue seemed to be large and tempting, I hesitated and still didn't buy it.
Because the amount is a little scary.
For example, each piece of meat on the skewer is very large, and the bullfrog is grilled whole.
It's too violent.
It was a seller of roast pig's trotters that attracted Shan Huatang and the princess.
The pig's trotters are marinated first, roasted repeatedly on the grill, sprinkled with seasonings, and finally sprinkled with chopped green onions, and the fragrance comes to the face.
And the price is not expensive, 15 yuan a piece.
"Boss, come two, separate loads. ”
After roasting, Shan Huatang handed a pig's trotter to Shan Huaqiang.
Shan Huaqiang refused at first, the pig's trotters he ate were all braised boiled, can this roasted one still be eaten?
But after smelling the fragrance, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, it was too fragrant!
Since it is a filial piety of his son, then he, as a father, reluctantly accepts it.
I tried to take a bite, well, it smells so good!
Feng Jinhua also tasted a piece and gave a thumbs up directly.
"Delicious!"
The family of four continued to shop.
There was a little brother playing drums on the side of the road, and melodious singing was heard in the stereo.
'Looking forward to your return, my little darling~~'
Many young people stop to watch and take photos and videos as souvenirs.
I have to say that this music is very magical, and people can't move their feet.
Why is this happening?
Because there are five words in the lyrics 'My little baby'.
Who isn't a baby anymore?
Take your wife and parents to visit the night market, a family of four, happy and happy.
