PS: Lao Yang is not comfortable today, the update is a little late, please forgive me------- do you have a monthly pass to support?

"It's a bit of luck to be able to sit at the bar and eat here, but you have to queue up to eat here. Mr. Xiao, what do you want to eat? Di Wei was obviously full of interest.

"Hey, you kid is rich, so take the initiative to invite me to dinner?" Xiao Peng sat down and smiled.

Di Wei scratched his head: "Hehe, it's the activity fund given by Brother Can, you always want us to do our landlord's friendship when you come to the Stars and Stripes Country, right?"

Xiao Peng was also infected by the environment here, so he didn't say anything to Di Wei, and directly ordered food from the waiter: "A glass of home-brewed dark beer, a clam soup, a cocktail shrimp, a grilled lobster, a tortilla, uh, plus a seafood platter." After speaking, he handed the menu to Di Wei: "What do you order?"

Di Wei was stunned: "Mr. Xiao, why are you so proficient in ordering?"

Xiao Peng said speechlessly: "It says 'grand introduction', it must be a special dish here." Don't call me Mr. Xiao, it's awkward, I'm older than you, call me Brother Peng. ”

Di Wei nodded and said, "Okay, Brother Peng." I'll also have the same one, the seafood platter can be replaced with a fried seafood platter. ”

The food is served very quickly, especially the seafood platter, which is made by the old chef on the spot, and he uses a special tool to knock the closed shell of the oysters and then pry them open, which is also an important factor in the restaurant's prosperity for nearly 200 years.

Xiao Peng, the small round clams in the seafood platter, felt that the taste was average, far worse than the clairvoyant clams and clams, but the taste of the oysters was really good.

"This is a local fresh oyster?" Xiao Peng gave a thumbs up to the old chef after eating a few oysters: "This taste is amazing!"

The old chef smiled: "You are a good eater, this is indeed a local fresh oyster, Daniel Webster, who was once one of the five greatest senators of the Stars and Stripes, eats at least six plates of oysters here every day." And I still think that small round clams are more suitable for making clam soup, so it is really not as good as oysters when eaten directly. I saw that you don't like to eat clams, so try the clam soup. ”

Following the advice of the old chef, Xiao Peng tasted the clam soup here, which is a milky white soup with a large amount of clam meat in it. Xiao Peng tasted it and praised it directly: "When I first served it, I was not very interested in round oysters, but now I realize how ridiculous I am." The deliciousness of the clam meat and the aroma of the potatoes are blended together, and the shrimp meat and raw egg yolk are probably used in it, which is borrowed from our Chinese Cantonese cuisine is a Japanese soup, and the person who invented this soup is simply a genius. ”

The old chef's face was full of excitement after hearing this: "I really can't see that you are so tasteful, few people can eat this dish at once, how about you taste the rest of the dishes?"

Xiao Peng tasted the cocktail shrimp: "The taste of the shrimp is okay, fresh is fresh, but unfortunately the shrimp used is general, and the avocado is not fully ripe, and the charm of this dish is not fully exerted." ”

The old chef was stunned, took out an avocado and tasted it: "Shet, you're right! What's the matter with this damn avocado?"

When eating the grilled Boston lobster, Xiao Peng frowned: "Okay, your lobster cuisine is smarter to use the roasting method, Maine lobster has less meat moisture, you use the method of roasting to further reduce the moisture, so that you can hide the fact that the lobster has a bad taste, and then with minced garlic, the method of baking is used to highlight the umami of the lobster to the greatest extent, well, this cooking method is really too smart." The person who invented this way of cooking is a genius. ”

The old chef smiled: "I think you are also a genius." How did you taste it?"

Xiao Peng smiled: "Well, I usually like to cook, too." But I've never made crayfish, I've only made lobsters. ”

The old chef was curious: "Are these two ways of cooking different?"

Of course, it's different: "The skin of lobster is much thinner than that of crayfish, and if the lobster can be made delicious in the same way of cooking, the crayfish is much worse." ”

"And if it were you, what would you make prawns?" asked the old cook.

Xiao Peng thought for a while and replied: "After all, I haven't cooked crayfish, so I can't guarantee that it will be delicious, but considering the difference between crayfish and lobster and its characteristics, I think I will also choose to grill, which is also grilled lobster with garlic, but it is slightly different from the way you grill it." ”

"What's the difference?" asked the old chef.

"Ugh. You don't have enough oysters to eat, and you don't have enough clam soup to drink。。。。。 Xiao Peng pretended to complain.

The old chef laughed, "How many round oysters do you think you can eat?"

"Daniel Webster can eat six plates, I can eat at least ten plates!" Xiao Peng held out a finger.

The old chef patted the crisper in front of him, which was full of round oysters, and he showed a sly smile: "No problem, you can eat as much as you want, but I have a small request." ”

Xiao Peng said: "I know, let you taste the garlic grilled lobster I made, okay?" ”

The old chef shook his head: "No, no, no, I want to leave a picture of you more than the garlic grilled lobster you made." ”

"Photo?" Xiao Peng was stunned for a moment, and instantly came back to his senses: "You recognize me?"

The old chef lowered his voice: "It's our honor that Lord Samuel can come to us, let me introduce myself, my name is Add, you can call me old Add." As a chef, eye is very important, and our hostess, Miss Marianne, is the most devout Catholic, and almost flew to Phoenix to find you! You are lucky today, the hostess is not here, if you are, you will be entangled, and no man can refuse the charm of our hostess. ”

"Well, I'm as determined as steel. Xiao Peng said in a low voice: "I'm here to find my girlfriend this time, uh, so I won't be attracted to other women." ”

"Mr. Samuel, I was as confident as you were when I was younger, but is it true。。。。。。 Gee. Forget it, let's go to the back kitchen, taste your garlic lobster, I can eat Samuel's kitchen in my lifetime, I can blow at least eighteen years and forty-seven days. Old Eddie laughed.

"Uh, why are you blowing eighteen years and forty-seven days?" Xiao Peng asked.

"I'm only 81 years old. In another eighteen years and forty-seven days, it will be exactly one hundred years old. I plan to blow until the day of my 100th birthday. Old Eddie replied with a smile.

"Well, if you rush at your lively character, you will be able to live a long life. Xiao Peng said.

Old Addis laughed: "Is this a blessing from a saint? It seems that I will not live to be a hundred years old and I will be sorry for God." ”

Xiao Peng also laughed after hearing this: "Old Eddie, I really like your character too much, you will definitely live a long life." ”

"Then it's up to you!Let's go to the back kitchen!" Old Eddie took off his apron and showed Xiao Peng the way.

The two walked to the door of the back kitchen, and Xiao Peng saw a strange table, which was set up next to the semi-circular bar, and there was an open desk, which was very incongruous with the surroundings.

"This is?" Xiao Peng asked, pointing to the strange desk.

Old Eddie laughed and said, "This is our hostess's desk, and she usually sits here to work." She loves to sit here and watch everything in the restaurant, you know, our hostess has no one to beat, and she is the best sign when she sits here. ”

"Wow, you're really good at business. Xiao Peng sighed and went to the back kitchen with old Eddie. "Jay, you go to the front desk for me for a while. ”

"Okay. "A younger chef walked out.

Entering the kitchen and seeing a lot of Maine lobsters, Xiao Peng picked up a lobster, took off the two crab claws, cut the lobster from the middle of the back, removed the inedible debris, exposed the snow-white shrimp meat, and then patted the crab claws with a kitchen knife to expose the cracks, which is convenient for flavor.

Xiao Peng took out the garlic, cut it into minced garlic, mixed New Zealand cream and fresh black pepper in it, and took out the salt and smeared it on the shrimp meat repeatedly, then washed off the salt with clean water, smeared the mixed garlic on the shrimp meat, and then put it directly into the oven.

"That's it!" Xiao Peng turned on the oven and took out the roasted lobster: "How about tasting the taste?"

Old Eddie couldn't wait to taste it: "God Jesus, it seems that the method is so simple, why is the taste so bad?"

Xiao Peng smiled: "If I guessed correctly, you are adding salt to the cream, right? That will lead to uneven distribution of salt flavor, if you add too much salt, it will affect the shrimp flavor, and if you add too little salt, it will be light and tasteless." And pickling it first can solve this problem. ”

After speaking, Xiao Peng also took a piece of shrimp meat and put it in his mouth: "Well, it's still fresh Maine lobster." Much stronger than the Maine lobster I bought at home. ”

Old Eddie smiled: "Of course, the seafood is still the freshest, Maine lobster needs to be transported by air to you, and the quality will naturally decline." ”

Xiao Peng shook his head and said: "In Huaxia, even the Maine lobsters that are airlifted are rare in the market, and they are all sent directly to major hotels, and the Maine lobsters that can be purchased in our market are generally farmed in Dalian." Now Maine lobsters have begun to be farmed on a large scale in China. ”

Old Eddie smiled: "Breeding in Dalian?

Xiao Peng laughed: "It stands to reason that it is like that, but you must know that businessmen will only say that they have the greatest interests, in Huaxia, no matter what they are, as long as they are stained with a foreign name, they can sell them at a high price, and they can make more money, just like Maine lobster, which we call Boston lobster in Huaxia." There are many more such examples. ”

Old Eddie ate the lobster and asked curiously, "What other examples?" Mr. Samuel, I don't know how such a thing could happen?
