Chapter 377: Eating at Hepburn

After a brief inventory of the receipts, the two of them left the B&B again and walked towards the most cost-effective restaurant introduced by Einarson.

After taking a hot bath, the state of the two changed from a fast-paced survival state to a slow leisure state.

Five minutes later, the two walked into the red wooden house, and as for the name of the restaurant, as usual, it was unintelligible.

It's only five o'clock in the afternoon, but there are already many customers enjoying their food in the restaurant.

Finding a window seat and sitting, the two of them glanced at the other tables while waiting for the waiter to come.

The food on each table is basically meat, beef, lamb, fish, shrimp, and poultry.

Two minutes later, the waiter walked over to the table of two and handed over a menu.

"Two servings of roast lamb, for Einar's family. ”

Xiao Weiwei's first sentence shocked the waiter.

Looking at these two black-haired, black-eyed and yellow-skinned Asians, the waiter couldn't figure out how they could have come into contact with the old stubborn Einar.

There was only one type of roast lamb on the menu, which was provided by Hepburn's local farm and was eaten on farm-grown pasture.

The Einar family's sheep are semi-wild Icelandic sheep raised in the Rachsol River Valley, and in addition to ordinary pasture, they often eat thyme, so the quality is extremely high, and they are usually sent to Reykjavík.

The owner of this shop would not have been able to buy his sheep if he had not been related to Einar, and these muttons were basically provided to the local residents of Hepburn.

Don't underestimate the economic strength of Hepburn's local residents, the worst residents here are also homestays, and the economic conditions are very good.

"Two lobster sets, two steaks, two grilled cod, two grilled puffins, crème brûlée for dessert and two lattes for drinks. ”

Xiao Weiwei didn't see the waiter's stunned expression and continued to order.

After the two finished ordering, the waiter closed the menu, gave a thumbs up to the two, and put his index finger up to his lips to make a secret gesture before walking towards the back kitchen.

Waiting for the first dish, the roast mutton, Xiao Weiwei couldn't help but open the live broadcast room and began to throw venom.

"This kind of meat is really delicious, and I secretly tell everyone that our mutton is not the same as the one on the table next to us, it was grown up eating thyme, and there is no need to put seasonings when roasting. ”

"Weiwei, you're talking nonsense with your eyes open, what are those little dots on the mutton?"

"Weiwei, won't your conscience hurt if you do this?"

"Weiwei's words make me not believe that mutton is delicious, but Master Qing, you make such an intoxicated expression......"

Every time it comes to this time, it is always the time when the audience reacts the most violently, either envy or complain.

Liu Danqing was concentrating on food at this time, eating with a full face of intoxication, the more this happened, the more people felt envious, jealous and hateful.

The lamb was followed by the steak, which the Icelanders continued with the roughness of their ancestors, the Vikings, and the steak was cut very thick, almost four centimeters.

This is cut, and when it is raw, it is at least five centimeters or more.

Liu Danqing cut a piece of steak, nodded with satisfaction, and introduced: "Very good thick cut, the cooking method should be reverse sear." ”

"Reverse sear?" Xiao Weiwei asked suspiciously.

Liu Danqing swallowed a bite of steak and looked up to introduce: "With such a thick steak, it is more difficult to fry it, and it is even more difficult to cut it deliciously, so there is a cooking skill called reverse sear." ”

"Slow roast the steak in the oven at low temperature, wait for the inside of the steak to get close to the ideal temperature, and then return to the pan and fry it in butter to allow the surface to get the Maillard reaction and caramelization reaction. This thick-cut beef has a first-class taste in addition to being very fatty. ”

Look, what is professional, what is pretending to be a B master, inadvertently, Liu Danqing threw a lot of venom again.

However, the audience is also unconvinced.

"Could it be that you can eat it with one mouth? Maybe it's the young master bragging?"

"Master Qing's B pretend to be big, it's over!"

"Flicker, flicker, I don't believe it, Master Qing, you can eat the cooking method in one bite?"

Xiao Weiwei looked at the objections in the live broadcast room, called the waiter next to her, and asked him, "Is your steak grilled first and then fried?"

The waiter gave Xiao Weiwei a thumbs up and said, "You are amazing!"

Obviously, Xiao Weiwei's statement was acquiesced.

With the proof of foreign friends, the opinions of the audience in the live broadcast room are finally unified, there is no doubt, only envy, jealousy and hatred!

Next up is lobster soup, followed by grilled lobster.

The ingredient of both dishes is Icelandic lobster, which is actually a sea prawn that looks similar to black tiger shrimp and prawns.

But the taste of this shrimp is really not to be said, as a cold-water shrimp living near the Arctic Circle, it is delicate and tender to the extreme.

The black and white sauce is also very good, one sweet and the other salty, which is very delicious.

So the two of them ate without seeing each other, and they were incomparably intoxicated.

The next roasted Icelandic national bird tastes average, the meat is not much, and it tastes a little old.

The last grilled cod has a specialty, the large, large pieces of cod meat are grilled on both sides and are golden brown, you don't need to eat, you are greedy to watch.

The dessert and coffee at the end were also good.

After the meal, the two felt full.

That's right, it's three points full, even if every serving of meat is accompanied by potatoes and vegetables, but the two of them are still only three points full.

But they are not in a hurry, although this Hepburn is small, there are still several places to eat, each with its own characteristics.

Crucially, there's also one of Hepburn's most famous restaurants for eating Icelandic lobster, which they haven't visited yet.

After eating all the food, Liu Danqing went to settle the bill, the price was not cheap, and the two of them ate a total of more than 30,000 and nearly 40,000 Icelandic kroner, equivalent to more than 2,000 yuan.

But the taste is really good, especially the roast mutton, which is full of aroma.

Of course, it is also the most expensive, ordinary Icelandic lamb, one serving is five kilograms, and the lamb of the Einerson family they ordered is eight kilograms of Lang each.

Don't be too expensive, if it weren't for the two of them told the two in advance, they wouldn't have been able to eat this limited edition goodie as ordinary guests.

This can be regarded as satisfying Liu Danqing's wish to come to Iceland to eat the best Icelandic mutton.

Walking out of the restaurant, the two of them walked towards the port.

At the beginning of the day, the small town of Hepburn seemed quite quiet, and there were few people on the streets, less than cars, and often cars overtook them and drove towards the port.

It is estimated that most of these people are also going to the port to enjoy the food.

In the port of Hepburn, there are six restaurants, four large and two small.

Unlike the restaurants in the town, which focus more on the preparation of seafood.

The two entered a restaurant with a large wooden lobster at the door of the house, and the main building of the restaurant was white, with a few yellow horizontal stripes painted, which looked quite warm.

This is their destination, the best lobster restaurant in Hepburn, or even the best lobster restaurant in Iceland.

Walking into the restaurant, there is a photo of Ben Stiller, a Taiwanese actor and director that Liu Danqing loved when he was a child, and the owner and wife of this restaurant on the wall.

When you enter this shop, you will naturally have Icelandic lobster to eat.

The restaurant did not disappoint the two, and when they opened the menu, there were five flavors of grilled lobster alone.

Liu Danqing ordered two servings of everything, and then ordered dessert and coffee.

The difference between the five lobsters is that the taste is different, and the common point is that they are all very delicious, fresh, fragrant, tender, and so on.

The two of them praised it.

The audience was very depressed!

Of course, delicious lobster also means a good price.

It's 8,900 kroner, and 10 lobster alone is 89,000 ISK, and with dessert and coffee, it's exactly 90,000 ISK.

It is equivalent to about 5,600 yuan.

Now, the two of them are full, but their culinary journey is still not over.

They left the Lobster Restaurant and entered another small restaurant, which was also introduced by Einarson.

The restaurant's main product is marine fish, not ordinary marine fish, but whale meat, including baleen whales and minke whale meat.

Iceland is the only country in the world that has joined the Global Whaling Ban Convention but can still hunt whales.

For some reason, when the Global Whaling Ban Convention was enacted, it left a back door for Icelanders to hunt a certain number of whales.

Existence is reasonable, so Liu Danqing and Xiao Weiwei, two guys without the slightest moral cleanliness, entered this store.

The whale meat here is not like the whale meat mini burger in Reykjavík's barbecue paradise, which is unobtrusive and unobtrusive in bread, but is served whole on a plate.

Of the several whale meat dishes, two left a deep impression on them.

One is the seared sashimi, in which the outside of the whale meat is grilled with an airbrush, while the inside is still dark red raw fish, which has a very special taste.

There is also a "dessert" made with whale skin.

A cigarette-sized snow-white rectangle, which looks a bit like jelly, and a small piece of black at the top, tastes good in the mouth, a bit like a jellyfish's head.

It is said that this is the cooking method of the Inuit (Eskimos), who would make whale skin into this small snack and eat it when they have nothing to do.

The shop had the lowest cost, with two people ordering five dishes for just over 10,000 crowns.

Eat yourself with whale meat until you are full, and then the two return to the homestay with satisfaction.

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Xiao Weiwei asked, "It's only eight o'clock, Qingqing, is there anything else to do?"

"I'll ask the hostess. Liu Danqing stood up and replied.

According to the instructions of the proprietress, the two drove to Hepburn Hot Springs, took a bubble bath, relieved fatigue, and came back to sleep.
