"Long Shao, this fish is so delicious. I think the former emperor Lao'er ate nothing more than this......" Li Dawei had obviously never eaten such delicious fish in his hometown and army before, so he slapped the table and applauded.

An old man at the table next to him echoed with laughter: "Young man, you don't understand, in the past, this was really the emperor's ...... food"

"Oh, how can you say that......" Li Dawei suddenly became interested, and He Zilong also looked sideways.

It is said that the Qianlong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty went down to the south of the Yangtze River, tasted the Songjiang sea bass, and named it "the first fish in the south of the Yangtze River", and since then the Songjiang Mansion has paid tribute to the imperial court every year...... "The old man is obviously a frequent visitor here, and he talks one after another."

"You don't say it, I really haven't noticed, well, there are Americans on the album here, who is this, a little familiar, but I ......can't remember it for a while," Li Dawei stood up and looked at the promotional pictures on the wall of the store. Suddenly a new discovery was made!

"That American is President Nixon......" He Zilong said.

"Yes, in 1972, when former U.S. President Richard Nixon visited Shanghai, he tasted Songjiang sea bass. In 1983, SH Jin Jiang Hotel held a Songjiang sea bass cooking performance in Hong Kong, which caused a sensation in the local Chinese and foreign people. The leader of the country once also wrote the four words "treasures among fish...... "The old man has a look in his eyes, and he answers."

"Boss, your second course of white sauce and cinnamon fish is here!" As he spoke, the waiter served a second course.

The same is fish, "white sauce cinnamon fish" too!

"This white sauce osmanthus fish can't be what the emperor likes to eat, right?" Li Dawei looked at the old man and asked.

That's right, according to legend, there is also an allusion, Kangxi visited the people privately, and after eating this fish, he wrote the words "Gongmen Offering Fish", and signed "Xuanye". Soon after the signboard was hung up, the shopkeeper heard that it was written by today, and was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly knelt down in front of the sign, shouting: "Thank you, Lord Longen." The old man seems to know a lot.

"The fish is good, but there is no Han emperor who likes to eat it, and the ...... who leaves a name?

"This posterity, the bamboo shoot pickled soup in front of you meets your requirements, the soup of this dish is white and thick, the meat is crispy and fat, and the taste is fresh and fragrant. Every spring, when bamboo shoots are on the market, people in Shanghai like to cook this delicacy. Bamboo shoots were called "buds" in ancient times. As early as the Xia Dynasty, people used bamboo shoots instead of food......"

It's still the old man, and he said endlessly: "The old man knows my intentions, and he sends bamboo sprouts for thousands of miles." The jade babies are stretched one by one. The people should not know, but the traveler's eyes will know first......"

"I know this poem, this is a bamboo shoot poem by Su Dongpo, which says that bamboo shoots are like swaddling babies, white as jade. I didn't know before, but it turned out that it was the origin of this dish, well, I'll try it......" He Zilong's eyes lit up and he picked up the chopsticks.

After eating a few bites, He Zilong's face was intoxicated.

"Come, come, come, lad. Try my plate of hibiscus crab bucket again, yours haven't been served yet, taste my ...... first" The old man was very enthusiastic, and he handed the dishes on his table to He Zilong. He eats more than a dozen dishes by himself, and he is also old and strong!

"In our Chinese land, there are many crabs, including river crabs, pike crabs, blue crabs, brook crabs, etc., among which river crabs are the most popular among people. The area around Shanghai and Suzhou is also famous for "Yangcheng Lake Clear Water Hairy Crab". There is a poem: "It's not good for Yangcheng Lake crabs, why live in Suzhou in this life." "That's what I'm talking about......"

He Zilong looked at the old man in front of him with a little admiration, this is a super foodie, not only can eat, eat well, can eat, but also can eat history and eat grade. You can also quote scriptures!

While eating, another table of diners stood up and called for payment, but the waiter was obviously not there, and took out the food in the back kitchen.

The old man who had just introduced the dish to He Zilong, a brisk step forward, and smiled at the diners at that table: "Chenghui takes care of you, your table is eight dishes, two bottles of old wine, a total of 276 yuan and 5 jiao, and the rest is free for you, count you 270 yuan ......"

He Zilong: "......"

Li Dawei: "......"

Khan, you old man, is the owner of this restaurant, no wonder he knows the dishes here like a few treasures, and he knows the root of the matter without stopping.

"Long Shao, it costs 270 yuan to eat a table, it's not cheap...... Li Dawei whispered to He Zilong.

"Is it expensive?" I think it's very suitable, a month's salary or so to eat a table is naturally a little more expensive than ordinary people, but the audience here is originally tourists, as well as full-time diners, and they don't eat every day, this price is not too expensive if you count the labor and store opening costs......" He Zilong didn't feel anything.

In the future of 201X, you go to a slightly more delicious and high-grade restaurant to ask for a table of dishes, and a few hundred yuan is the lowest price. More than a thousand yuan is normal, and with a little drink, a few thousand yuan is not uncommon.

Why the state will tax catering is a little heavier than other industries, and it also knows the bottom of the profits. Of course, except for fast food restaurants, which are purely volume-oriented and have too low entry requirements, they are not really in the catering industry at all. It can only be counted as coolies!

There are a lot of people in the restaurant, but if you look closely, you will find that it is also in the lobby, and it is also a la carte. The service on one of the corner tables was noticeably much better than the others. However, the two waiters stood next to them without a smile on their faces, helping the guests pour wine and vegetables, and carefully ...... It's as if the guest at the table is a scourge and not God!

Originally, He Zilong and the others didn't think much about it.

At this point, though.

A young man at the table stood up suddenly: "Boss, get out of here!"

The young man did not dare to compliment, tattooed, topless, with jeans underneath, and looked like a gangster. Look at the other people next to him, all of them have dyed their hair, all of them are vulgar, they drink a lot, and they don't look like good people.

Sure enough, the old man who was laughing with He Zilong just now just walked over to laugh. The young man grabbed him by the collar and shouted, "How do you serve in your restaurant? There are flies in the food, how can people eat?"

As soon as the voice came out, everyone was shocked!

All the diners in the restaurant looked sideways. Are there flies in the dishes? Is there such a low-level and disgusting service problem in a big city?

Some diners walked over to look, and He Zilong also walked over.

I saw that all the food on that table had been eaten, and only in the last soup plate that bottomed out, there was really a fly!

But, Nima. Something is clearly wrong!

If there are flies in the dishes and soups, you bastards will eat them all, and then wipe your mouths clean before you say, And the two waiters on the side are blind? Obviously, they are dirty, and the thief shouts to catch the thief!
