At five o'clock in the afternoon, everyone came to No. 13 Hutong of Wangfujing Shuaifuyuan, and the goal was naturally to come to the capital to definitely not miss the Quanjude roast duck.

Chinese people have a special preference for things with national brands, as long as they are touched with the word "country", such as the national liquor Moutai, the national treasure panda, the national ball table tennis and so on.

Due to the special preference of national leaders, Quanjude roast duck has been repeatedly pushed to state banquets to entertain foreign guests, resulting in Quanjude roast duck becoming hot in the country, and even recognized as "China's first cuisine".

As a glutton, Lin Cheng has never eaten Quanjude's roast duck, which cannot but be said to be one of the great regrets in his past and present lives.

Now, Lin Cheng, who has money and leisure, has come to the capital, how can he miss this No. 1 delicacy in China?

You know, for foodies, only food can't be disappointed.

Just like the Sichuan hot sauce launched by the later Meidi McDonald's in 1998, due to its scarcity, this hot sauce was auctioned for more than $70,000 in 2017.

Later, McDonald's launched Sichuan hot sauce again in 2017, which caused a national sensation in the United States, and people's pursuit of it even surpassed the enthusiasm of fruit fans for the iPhone when Qiao Gang Leader was alive, and the queue was two streets.

As a result, because McDonald's underestimated the popularity of Sichuan hot sauce, and the hot sauce provided was far less than the crowd in line, which led to a riot among American imperial foodies, and people fought to get a pack of Sichuan hot sauce.

In front of the Quanjude Gate, even though it was just five o'clock in the afternoon, there were still two hours before the traditional seven-o'clock dinner time, but the foodies had already been stirred and had already lined up in a long line.

Duan Yongping, president of BBK, as a well-known entrepreneur in the country, naturally will not queue up as hard as ordinary people, under his leadership, everyone entered the Quanjude restaurant through the back door.

A sweet-looking waiter led everyone to a small box and asked with a smile: "Mr. Duan, thank you for bringing people to visit our Quanjude, is it as usual, one person has a roast duck?"

Duan Yongping said with a smile: "Xiao He, my friends are here to eat roast duck for the first time, you introduce them to the exquisiteness of Quanjude roast duck." ”

Xiao He smiled sweetly: "It is the right time for guests to eat roast duck in this season, November is the late autumn season, we are all Jude roast duck, pay attention to spring, autumn and winter."

In winter and spring, the duck meat is relatively fatty, and in autumn, the weather is high and cool, regardless of temperature and humidity, it is the most suitable for making roast duck. The ducks in autumn are also fatter, as evidenced by the proverb that 'the ducks are fat in autumn, and the chickens in the cage are fat'.

After the guests are seated, if they need to roast the duck, the waiter will immediately notify the duck class, and the duck class will start to roast the duck, and after waiting for 50 minutes, the guests will be able to eat the hot roast duck.

Roast duck is eaten freshly, eaten in the mouth, the skin is crispy, the meat is tender, the most delicious. There are three ways to slice duck, one is almond slices, this is the most traditional slicing method, sliced duck meat such as almonds; another slicing method such as willow leaf strips, there is also a kind of skin and meat to eat, the duck skin is crispy and crispy and fragrant, the duck meat is thin but not broken, wrapped in lotus leaf cake to eat, crispy and tender. ”

Just listening to the introduction, everyone was already looking forward to it, Lin Cheng asked, "By the way, can you order takeout?"

Xiao He replied: "Of course you can, but the waiting time for takeout will be longer, our guests here generally come here to eat, and there are takeaways, but after all, there are few." ”

Lin Cheng said: "It's good to have it, I'll give me your takeaway phone call later, I'll stay at the Peninsula Hotel in Wangfujing, not far from you." Now, let's give each of us a whole duck.

By the way, your staple food here is lotus leaf cake and hollow sesame baked cake, right, give me a whole point each, and then cook a few vegetables for us. ”

Xiao He smiled: "Well, it seems that this is not the first time for Mr., and he knows a lot about our signature staple food!"

Lin Cheng shook his head and said: "It's really the first time I've come to Quanjude, it's just that Quanjude's fame is so big, I've heard others talk about it." ”

Xiao He said: "Okay! The whole duck will take about 50 minutes, and the lotus leaf cakes, sesame baked cakes, and green vegetables will be served to you soon." ”

The so-called good dishes are not afraid to wait, although there are still fifty minutes to eat the roast duck, but Lin Cheng's mood is still very beautiful, and other first-time people are also looking forward to it.

However, Liang Tingyue couldn't sit still, his goal was to lead Ji Lingyuan to surpass Quanjude to become the country's No. 1 restaurant group, and now he has come to Quanjude, an imaginary enemy that is full of thunder, so he naturally wants to visit it well to learn from it.

Before coming to the capital, Liang Tingyue had already reported to Lin Cheng the development plan of Ji Ling Garden, and the Ji Ling Garden main store he chose was ingenious, not opening in the nearby flower city, but wanting to go to Quancheng and open Ji Ling Garden in its birthplace.

Lin Cheng is very supportive of Liang Tingyue's plan, and after the trip to the capital, Lin Cheng will also travel to Quancheng.

In his previous life, Lin Cheng had not been to Qilu, but he had been yearning for Mount Tai, the first mountain in China, and this time it was rare to come to the north, Lin Cheng wanted to climb to the top of Mount Tai, and experience the feeling that the ancients would be at the top of the mountain and the mountains at a glance.

Of course, he also wanted to visit Baotu Spring, which was described in primary school textbooks. Reborn in a lifetime, Lin Cheng didn't want to just be a money-making machine, he wanted to see the scenery he hadn't seen in his previous life.

About 50 minutes later, the whole duck table was finally put on the table by the waiter, and after a long wait, everyone was already looking forward to it, and the roast duck had just been served.

Zhou Huanting and Liang Tingyue ate the first bite of roast duck meat with apprehension, and after chewing it slowly, both of them invariably let out a sigh.

Although Quanjude roast duck does not live up to the reputation of "China's first delicacy", the roast duck has a crispy skin, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and tastes delicious, fragrant but not greasy. But compared with their own Ji Lingyuan Yellow Braised Chicken, it is only comparable in terms of taste, which makes Liang Tingyue and Zhou Huanting relaxed.

Both of them feel that as long as the taste gap is not large, there is still hope for Ji Lingyuan to catch up with Quanjude, although in terms of fame, Quanjude is more than eight streets away from Ji Lingyuan, but Ji Lingyuan has Lin Cheng, the big financier, who spares no effort to support it!

Lin Cheng didn't have any extra thoughts, at the moment he was just a pure glutton, enjoying the delicious taste of Quanjude roast duck.

As for taking a stake in Quanjude or something, he might have been interested in Quanjude before the restructuring, but now that Quanjude has completed the restructuring, and it has developed extremely rapidly, there must be no need for Lin Cheng to share the profits.
