Chapter 169: Areca Shih Tzu
Buy a few and leave quickly, no wonder the tour guide fee is cheap, it turns out that you are waiting for your brother here?
Go back to your new home, tidy up simply, and feel a little at home. After a busy afternoon, the three of them finally went out and came to the night market to experience the bustling and noisy nightlife.
Taipei Night Market is very famous, all kinds of delicious snacks, along Zhongxiao East Road to the west, near Zhongxiao Bridge, there is a small place, but when talking about Taipei, you can't avoid it: Ximending.
Because I like a rapper, the pug gang, so I was very impressed here.
Neon flashing, busy traffic, and bustling. This is a paradise for the Hari people and is known as Harajuku Taipei. The Korean Wave is coming, and the streets are filled with Gangnam style.
From cosmetics, trendy clothes, magazines, toy models, and game consoles, you can find them all here.
Many singers release new albums and also like to hold signing events in Ximending. If you have a dream of stardom, you might as well try your luck at Ximending, after all, Lin Qingxia and Zhang Junning both accidentally started their acting career when they were shopping.
Turning the corner, I came to a red brick octagonal building, looking at all kinds of men and women, I heard that the locals called the Red Mansion Theater, which was famous for playing small action movies in the old days. Now it's even more awesome, and like the new park, it's a gay gathering place.
Johnson kept looking around, and described a special phenomenon in the old people in Ximending who sang hot dogs: McDonald's gathered a lot of single elderly people, who sat all day, not really like McDonald's, but came to soak in the little sister.
The whole song is full of scolding, and there are a lot of little sisters with heavy makeup on the street, and they can't tell if they are adults. Three religions and nine streams, fish and dragons are mixed, there are many tides, how strange and how strange.
One day, I came to Ximending and walked around, hungry and wanted to eat Maixiang chicken
As soon as I entered the McDonald's, I was shocked that 70% of it was occupied by old people
Those streamlined old uncles are not ordinary, handsome, and they wear a straight suit, as if they are going on a blind date
Pink leather shoes, a great hairstyle, old uncle, I really admire you
But the old uncle's eyes were always grinning
Eyes wandering around, looking for something
Suddenly, a hot amorous woman came in, and the old uncles began to look at me, I look at you
Take a bite of a hamburger and coke to rush down, and somehow begin to become courageous
Miss, Miss, you have such water, do you want to go to the movies later, or come and have a cup of coffee
Although I am in my sixties, I have NT$, and if I have money, I will be big......
"Handsome guy, how many packs of betel nuts will we?"
Johnson stopped and looked at the two beautiful girls in front of him who were dressed coolly and with hot bodies, pulling a middle-aged greasy man, all kinds of coquettish sales......
This is the legendary betel nut Shih Tzu?
Curious to step forward, the girl hurriedly walked up and promoted betel nut. Hearing that he wanted to buy a few packs, he enthusiastically brought Johnson to the side.
The shop is just a small glass house, with an area of up to a few square meters. A freezer, a table, and a barstool.
A short-haired girl sees business coming to the door, wearing a low-cut miniskirt and smiling face.
took out a small bag, took out a betel nut, skillfully cut off the head and tail with a knife, opened a small box similar to cosmetics, and the knife took out a little white mud paste and spread it flat on the betel nut leaves.
I heard that white mud paste is actually something like lime, which can reduce the bad irritation of betel nut. Johnson paid and asked curiously, "Is business good?"
The girl has long seen that Johnson is a local tyrant, and when he goes out with bodyguards, he must be a rich second generation. Leaning to his side, he smiled and said, "Hey, of course business is not good!"
"In the past, no one cared about it, a bra on the top and a miniskirt on the bottom, and sold fifty or sixty more packs a day. Later, the competition was big, and a lot of glamorous sluts actually played COSPALY?"
"Then I touched my chest and even danced. It's a pity that it's strict now, and I don't know that bastard is going around saying that eating too much betel nut may cause cancer!"
The girl grabbed Johnson's arm and said coquettishly: "Handsome guy, I haven't eaten tonight, why don't you take me to play?"
Johnson left directly, this kind of can't be touched, who knows if there is a disease?
As night falls, the brightly lit neighborhood is not far away, and the smell of all kinds of food wafts into the face, and many people shuttle between the steaming stalls.
The beauties held two or three oily paper bags full of food in their left hands, and a cup of cool winter melon tea in their right hands, and the night market officially began.
The three of them glanced at each other, Johnson loosened his trouser belt, and waved his big hand, kill!
The amount of belly is limited, and there must be trade-offs. The goal is a local specialty, the first oyster noodle line.
The noodles are made of a thick soup base made of large bones, bonito, and chicken powder, and then add thickened oysters and marinated large intestines, which are extremely salty and fragrant. With three options, such as oysters, large intestines or a combination, SC Johnson wants to eat two ingredients at a time and mix and match them directly.
In fact, oyster fried is also available in Chaoshan, southern Fujian, and Hong Kong Island, but the method is slightly different. The oysters here are fried with soy sauce paste, sweet sauce, sweet and spicy sauce, etc., and occasionally bean paste, which has a mellow and sweet flavor.
Beat a local egg into it, as long as the heat is good, the fresh and sweet flavor of the egg can melt into the oyster frying, making the taste rich.
Xia Hu ordered leeks to have a different taste. It is the season when leeks are abundant, and you can eat the fragrant and sweet taste of early spring......
It's a little greasy, so let's have a bowl of stewed pork ribs to adjust your appetite. This is standard at night markets, and almost every household has it.
Johnson tasted a bite, quite satisfied, blanched the pork ribs to remove the blood, and added angelica, Chuanxiong, white peony, wolfberry, cinnamon branches, ginseng, black dates and other medicinal materials and ingredients.
The key is to add rehmannia to make the whole bowl of medicinal soup dark black, and finally put a spoonful of rice wine, which is full of fragrance.
Look at the many people queuing not far away, the signboard is called Kaga Squid King, and when you walk in, it turns out to be hot squid?
I can't help but let Xia Hu line up to buy it and try it, blanch a bowl, shake the sauce well, and eat it while walking with a bamboo skewer.
The ingredients include garlic, nine-layer tower and sand tea, the taste is slightly heavy, but because it is blanched, it is not greasy, and it will not overshadow the delicious squid, and there are bright spots.
There are more and more people, so simply find a food stall and sit down to eat slowly. Come to the most lively one, four-flavor seafood soup, all the special fried one!
Only when you eat it in your mouth do you understand why it is called four-flavor seafood?
Squid, sprigs, oysters and shrimp. The soup is special when made with four kinds of seafood, and this one is especially fresh, and the oysters are the most fatty in spring. The highlight is the flower branches, which are cooked just right, very elastic, and extremely tenacious.
The seafood soup is added with nine-story tower and celery, and it is particularly refreshing to drink, and I can't help but have two drops of homemade chili oil, all the umami is awakened by these two drops of chili oil, and the hot cooking oil is instantly detonated!
The spicy stinky tofu is also quite special, with duck blood and large intestines. When eaten spicy, the aroma and umami are forced out, and the large intestine and duck blood are fuller. The spicy here is different from the domestic one, which is a bit interesting.
What is amazing is the egg pack melon broth, the moment the half-boiled egg bun is cut, the tip of the tongue feels the taste of egg yolk and fresh soup.
The duck eggs are used, which are fuller than eggs, and the melon meat is sweet.
It is no exaggeration to say: this bowl of soup is enough to last half of the night market!
