Chapter 45: Going to the Restaurant

Don't look at "Zhang Dascoop" didn't give the Hong family this face, but it is also a burden to refuse the kindness of others for no reason.

In addition, "Zhang Dascoo" usually does Hong Yanwu's "business" and sells a lot of "high-priced dishes".

And in the end, whether the money was handed over to the public or not, only he knew best in his heart.

So no matter where you pick it up, it's always a little embarrassing.

So, this "Zhang Dascoo" sent out a rare invitation within a few days, wanting to treat him on the weekend and take Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan to the restaurant.

Picking up this matter, Hong Yanwu certainly feels that he is good at it.

Not to mention that in his previous life, he ate and drank in Paris, New York, and Tokyo, but in this life, he also boasted that he had eaten all the best time-honored restaurants and restaurants in Beijing.

In addition, he wanted to pat himself on the back, so he said to "Zhang Dascoo" in a more respectful manner, "Where is the delicious food you make outside? But since you have this Yaxing, our brothers and sons are also willing to accompany you." Or we invite you, whether it is 'Cuihua Building', 'Fengze Garden', 'Judequan' or 'Shundonglai', you can pick the land casually. Hey, let's put it this way, even if it's a hotel in the capital. We're not afraid to spend money, as long as you go back and make up another dish for us. ”

Look, are you willing to exchange a meal for a dish?

Needless to say, these words naturally poked the itchy flesh of "Zhang Dascoop" again.

It's just that although this master was "squeaked" and happy, he didn't agree to push the boat down the river, but also provoked Hong Yanwu's mistakes.

"You kid is really a person who has lost your ancestors, and you are still a descendant of the Hong family, why is it all layman's talk?"

Hong Yanwu couldn't help but be stunned, "Yo, what do you mean?"

"Zhang Dascoop" then told with a disdainful face.

The Beijing dialect is quite exquisite, and almost every word in the past has a clear distinction and cannot be used incorrectly.

For example, the word "you" plus the heart should be called "you", and the word "he" plus the heart should be called "怹", all of which correspond.

So it's the same if you describe where to go.

For example, when you say "on" somewhere, it is solemn and formal.

Go to the unit, go to Chang'an Street, go to the police station, this is okay.

If you want to say "go", it will reveal an equal lightness.

Like going to the park, going to the shop, you can also go to the cinema.

And so on, and then look at the word "down" in "next restaurant", then it will be understood.

This not only carries the meaning of self-promotion, but also implies that the place to eat should still be divided into upper, middle and lower levels.

Don't forget, the people of Beijing have always summarized the stir-fry restaurant as "Zhuang Pavilion", Zhuang Pavilion Zhuang Pavilion, the upper is Zhuang, and the lower is the Zhuang.

Speaking of which, the level of the restaurant is of course the highest.

Most of the restaurants in the capital are marked by the word "Tang" after the name of the restaurant.

The standard in terms of scale is that there is a wide and multi-entry high-end courtyard, which can hold dozens or hundreds of high-end banquets.

For example, the "Yanqing Hall" and "Yanxi Hall" opened by the Hong family in the past are among the top ten halls in Beijing, and there are not only stages but also gardens.

Such a big deal is the same as a luxury five-star hotel, of course, it cannot be maintained by receiving individual customers, and the main business is to undertake red and white ceremonies and Xishoutang meetings.

Therefore, people call it "Shangfanzhuang".

Whether it is to admire the wealth of the store, or to show respect for the host of the guest, it is worthy of this "Shang" word.

And next, one level lower than the restaurant is the restaurant.

As the name suggests, restaurants are all suffix with "building".

Don't look like such a place can not accommodate large-scale banquets, but because there are pavilions and private rooms, the scale is not small.

In addition, there must be a famous chef in charge, and high-end specialty dishes, in order to call the capital.

Therefore, this is the main place to receive high-end individual guests and small gatherings, and it is also an integral part of the high-end dining in Beijing.

For example, the Hong family's "Yanmei Building" is one of the eight buildings in the capital, and this statement has to be "to Yanmei Building", and it is not appropriate to use "up" and "down".

Finally, further down the line, it's the restaurant's turn.

Compared with restaurants and restaurants, restaurants are not only smaller in scale, but also mostly bungalows with no courtyards.

The font size is mostly based on "residence" and, and in modern times, it is more straightforward, and it is mostly called "so-and-so restaurant" or "so-and-so restaurant".

As for the restaurant's signature dishes, although there are many famous dishes that are well-known in Beijing, in most cases, the dishes are few.

The raw materials are also ordinary, mostly chicken, duck and fish, and there are no delicacies from the mountains and seas, so the price is relatively cheap.

Needless to say, this must be a catering venue that welcomes ordinary customers.

There are also such transactions as the Hong family, and the "Yan Xingju" of the Hong family in the past was one of the eight major residences in the capital.

Therefore, "going down to the restaurant" is actually similar to "Qianlong going down to the south of the Yangtze River". It can reflect people's psychological state.

Of course, there is one exception to this, and that is when a customer mentions a specific store name.

In order to show respect for the store and his own modesty, he will say to go to Xiamiju, to Casserole, to Liuquanju, and to Guangheju.

From this point of view, a simple sentence of "Zhang Dascoo" reveals a lot of information, which is equivalent to the exclusion of high-end places for a long time.

And speaking of which, there is another crucial reason.

That is, because the customer groups received by high-end restaurants are different, Da Restaurant Hotel pays more and more attention to decency and ignores taste for the sake of leading cadres and foreign guests.

Coupled with the fact that they often participate in cooking competitions, this has led to the prevalence of artistic platters, so many traditional dishes have to be tricky, time-consuming, labor-intensive, and flashy.

For such extravagant and neglectful dishes, "Zhang Dascoop" is very disdainful and shameless.

He gave specific examples for this.

For example, the hand says that the egg whites are whipped and piled up like snow, which can be used as a substitute for cream.

As a result, a restaurant put "braised eel back" in the center of the plate, and piled up high egg whites around it, and changed its name to "Hidden Jiao in the Snow".

They also invented a dish called "snowflake crab bucket", which is crab roe packed into a raw shell and piled up with a ball of egg whites on top.

If you encounter this dish at a banquet, you can avoid the egg white when the first chopsticks are served, but the egg white must be removed before you can eat the latter dish.

It can be seen that this kind of innovation is purely a fart act of taking off pants, and the egg white garnish not only does not help the dish itself, but affects the taste of the dish.

On the other hand, the price has gone up, which is really a trick.

As for the small restaurant, because the chef has been specializing in small shops for many years, many dishes are made by himself.

Concentrate on it, do it for several years, but the level is not low. You can always find good food.

So it's really about eating, and now the fool only goes to the big rice Zhuangzi, that's all a lie!

It's a good explanation, although a "restaurant" will summon so many words of "Zhang Dascoop", it can't help but seem a little hypocritical,

But considering the background of the Hong family, it is no wonder that he wants to make fun of Hong Yanwu.

Who let his ancestors do this? As a descendant of the Hong family, he is not only ignorant, but also forgetful.

Therefore, Hong Yanwu not only didn't care, but was quite grateful, and said that he was knowledgeable.

Even he and Chen Liquan had faint expectations in their hearts.

Why?

Just rushed to pay attention to this, and both of them felt that going to eat a small restaurant with "Zhang Dascoo" might not be normal.

Maybe you can open your eyes again, and you can really enjoy your appetite.
