Chapter 430: Dizzy Menu
The taxi driver bragged to the three while driving.
"Listening to your accents, you are not locals, right? If you want to say that we are the most famous hotel in Lujiang, it must be Wangjiang Pavilion, just on the edge of the Lujiang River, the four of you will find a window seat and watch the river view while eating, that is called a beauty! This chef of Wangjiang Pavilion is a national super-famous chef, by the way, their boss Liang Fang, that and I are buddies, and when you eat, you will report my name, how much can you get a discount......
As soon as the bald uncle heard that he could get a discount, he immediately became excited and hurriedly asked.
"Yo, do you still know the boss of Wangjiang Pavilion?"
The driver snorted proudly.
"Hey, that's not it, I often pull guests for them, this commission...... Belch...... I mean, if you've seen more of this, you'll become familiar with it......"
β¦β¦
The driver seemed to be quite proficient in bragging, and blew all the way to the door of the Wangjiang Pavilion Hotel, and the four of them got out of the car and looked at it, and they were all a little shocked.
"Yo, it's really magnificent!"
The bald uncle exclaimed, and the others nodded their heads.
The location of Wangjiang Pavilion has to be said to be very accurate, the front is the bustling downtown area, but the back is next to the Lu River, the surging river rushes through, and the whole river can be seen from the upper floor.
The hotel has a total of five floors, the overall golden yellow style, eight o'clock in the evening, the lights are bright, the roof of the building is eaves and arches, Biwa Zhuyong, a group of antique, there is no atmosphere of modern hotel at all, a group of antique Hui style.
The vermilion column surrounded by two people at the door supports the whole restaurant, on the pillar body, on one side is the dragon circling, the dragon's mouth is wide open, the other side is the golden phoenix entangled, the front two huge stone lions, one is like a giant roar, it seems to be a male lion, the head is high.
A foot on a hydrangea, bowing her head and roaring, it should be a lioness! A banner hangs on the door of the hotel with a line of large letters!
[All the staff of our store wish Liang Zixuan's children a happy first birthday!]
Looking at this banner, it should be someone in the store who is holding a birthday party for his son.
There were two men standing at the door of the store, wearing ancient costumes, and when they saw the four people approaching, they made a gesture of please with a smile and shouted inside.
"The distinguished guests are happy to come to the door, the God of Wealth has entered the door, and the four of them are invited to !!"
As soon as the words fell, the welcome inside led the four people up the steps to the second floor.
The second floor is also decorated in an antique style, most of which are wooden structures, and there are wooden screens separating the seats from each other, and the screens are painted with various flowers and costumed figures, making people feel as if they have traveled back in time to a thousand years ago.
Ma Tianyao opened the fan-shaped menu, and immediately said that he was a little dizzy, the price on this menu is completely worthy of this luxurious decoration, the cheapest vinegared cabbage, one is 99 yuan.
"Uncle, let's order it, I'm dizzy. β
The bald uncle took the menu with a smile, immediately closed it, handed it to Liu Jianing, and said with a smile.
"I'm dizzy too, so let's be younger. β
In the end, Liu Jianing ordered four dishes at the bottom almost in order of price from low to high, which was considered to have passed the problem, and when he saw the waiter leaving, the bald uncle drank tea and scolded.
"I'm Cao, the most expensive vinegared cabbage I've ever eaten is only 15 yuan, and they dare to sell it for 99 yuan, isn't this a clear robbery?"
Ma Tianyao smiled and continued.
"After all, this is also the most upscale restaurant in Lujiang City, and it should be expensive, labor, water and electricity, rent, etc., all have to be spread into the price of vegetables, and if it is really sold for 15 yuan, it will go out of business sooner or later." β
Liu Jianing nodded, took a sip of tea from the teacup, and whispered.
"It's not expensive, I heard that the dishes in Mr. Shao's store are more expensive than this......
The bald uncle tilted his neck and muttered in a low voice.
"When the food comes up, I have to taste it, and if it doesn't taste good, I'll ask them to return the money, no, I have to pay three times the compensation. β
Liu Jianing made a shushing gesture and laughed and teased.
"Uncle, now we are not big celebrities, we can't make trouble casually, if people take pictures and post them on the Internet, you will lose a lot......"
The four of them were chatting, to be precise, the other three were chatting except Ling Yun, and the waiter came with a plate to serve the food.
As soon as he put down the vinegar cabbage, the bald uncle couldn't help but pick it up and taste it, and as soon as the cabbage entered his mouth, he frowned and spit it out.
"Waiter?" I said...... You vinegared cabbage...... It can't be someone else's leftovers, right? Why don't you even have a hot air? How can you eat it cold?"
Ma Tianyao and Liu Jianing glanced at each other, not sure if it was the bald uncle who was distressed about money and deliberately found fault or true, they also picked up the chopsticks and tasted them, but found that it was true, and took the chopsticks to taste other dishes, the four dishes were almost the same, it seemed that they were left out of the pot for too long and cold.
Although the waiter was apologizing, he didn't seem to be sincere, and it was okay not to say it, but when he said it, it made the bald uncle's fire even bigger.
"I'm sorry, someone in our hotel celebrates the child's birthday today, so the chef is too busy, so he is upstairs ......"
"Upstairs is a guest, we are not guests?"
"Hehe, I'm really sorry, it's really not our guest upstairs, it's our boss upstairs, and today our boss's baby son catches Zhou." β
Catching the week is a custom in the south, and there are fewer in the north, which means that when the child is one year old after birth, the family will hold a banquet, and a lot of things will be placed in the room, so that the child can crawl over and catch it casually, so as to be auspicious.
The custom of grasping the Zhou Dynasty spread very early, in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties has existed, "the customs of the south of the Yangtze River, the first period of the child's life is to make new clothes, the bath is decorated, the male is with a bow and arrow, paper and pen, the female is with a knife, ruler and needle, and add food and drink and treasure clothes to play, put it in front of the child, look at its intention to take, to test the corruption, wisdom and foolishness, the name is the trial." β
In the early decades, the family generally prepared pens, ink, paper, inkstones, abacus, coins, books, etc., and if you catch the abacus, it means that the child will be the bookkeeper in the future, and if you catch the books, it means that the child will be rich and rich, and can be admitted to a good school.
Today's people keep pace with the times, and they don't do that for a long time, and they only like to get rich, so they all exchange them for money, luxury cars, planes, villas, etc., and they will be bullish if they catch any of them anyway.
Hearing this, the bald uncle became even more angry, slapped the table and scolded.
"Is your boss big, or is the guest big? The guest is God, didn't your boss teach you?"
didn't think about it, and the waiter didn't know if he was really stupid or naΓ―ve enough to be stupid, so he laughed and said directly.
"Of course, our boss is big, our boss pays me a salary, and God doesn't pay me a salary, and I believe in Buddhism, not God ......"
This bull's answer to the horse's mouth made the bald uncle speechless, his face was flushed, and as soon as he sat down, Ma Tianyao stood up again, and asked with a smile.
"These four dishes...... It's all returned or replaced upstairs, right?"
