ZQ, also known as the mountain city and fog capital, is an ancient historical and cultural city. Located at the confluence of the Yangtze River and the Jialing River, the clouds and high-rise buildings are connected, and the mist is dispersed, like a fairyland.

As soon as I got off the plane, I immediately felt a different flavor, and there seemed to be a spicy smell in the air. Chen Cong couldn't help but sigh under his tongue, and looked at his watch, it was already one o'clock. I had a simple lunch on the plane, but it was basically just a stomach-filler. Chen Cong said a little impatiently: "Hurry up, the hot pot is up, I can't help it." ”

Wu Xiaoli smiled and said, "I'll go home first, you guys stay, send me the address, and I'll look for you tomorrow morning." Take you to eat authentic ZQ food. ”

"Okay, thank you. Chen Cong waved his hand at Wu Xiaoli, got into a taxi with Zou Zhanye and others, and went straight to the city.

Jiangbei Airport is still some distance from the city, but fortunately, the road is very smooth at this point, and after Chen Cong and others arrived at the Hilton Hotel and completed the check-in procedures, it was already more than two o'clock.

Originally, Zou Zhanye suggested that he just find a quick hotel to live in, but he couldn't stand Jiang Huiqin's request, so he chose Hilton, after all, girls are a little particular about accommodation, and it is understandable. Although the house price of more than 1,000 yuan a night is a bit painful, it can still be affordable for a few people to stay for a few nights.

Lying down on the soft Simmons, several people lost the spirit to get up again. After all, I have been out of the house since 9 o'clock in the morning until now, and I must still be a little tired. The hot pot that was said to have long been forgotten to the horizon, the hotel ordered a simple meal to send to the room, and after a simple meal, I lay down in the room and took a nap.

When I woke up, it was already five o'clock. After washing my face, the fatigue of the journey was finally swept away.

Hot pot is an indispensable part of ZQ people's lives, and hot pot restaurants of all sizes are all over the streets and alleys of ZQ. As soon as I stepped out of the hotel gate, I saw that the signboards of hot pot were everywhere, and there was a large hot pot restaurant almost every few hundred meters. A few people were not picky, and found the nearest one and walked over.

ZQ's hot pot is inseparable from hairy belly and yellow throat. Chen Cong clicked according to the menu. After all, don't cook hot pot, although the business in the store is booming, but the food is still served quickly, and the pot bottom in the form of nine palaces is a feature, which is rare in Nanjing. When the soup began to boil, Chen Cong picked up a few dishes, quickly soaked them in the pot, and tasted the taste.

"How?"

"I can't say it, I feel numb and spicy. But it's really cool and super appetizing. Zou Zhanye smacked his lips and said with a slight aftertaste, "This hairy belly is good, very tender." ”

"Do you think this has a future back to Nanjing?" asked Chen Cong.

"This thing is too seasonal, in Nanjing, autumn and winter, it must be no problem, but it is difficult to be so popular in summer. And the taste should be improved, although Nanjing people eat spicy, but they can't eat so spicy. Zou Zhanye said while tasting the taste, "This is just my first impression, not necessarily right." The key is that I think this game is still an old problem, it takes too long to turn the table, and it is better to be my high-end restaurant than to do this. The consumption of six or seven hundred per table is quite high, and I can sell more than 1,000 per table in a high-end restaurant, and if I drink a lot, two or three thousand are normal. But the hot pot restaurant can do a good job of 100% attendance, waiting in line, and high-end catering is almost impossible. ”

"Let's eat and see. Chen Cong put down his chopsticks and said, "Don't you remember the taste, I'm ready to flash people, the next one." ”

"Huh?" Jiang Huiqin was constantly shooting with the digital camera, and when she heard this, she looked at Chen Cong with some surprise and asked, "Eat these two bites and leave?"

According to incomplete information, ZQ has 20,000 hot pot restaurants, and we have a long way to go. Chen Cong laughed and said, "There are also sauerkraut fish, skewers, grilled fish, there are many things to eat." The stomach is so big, each family can only taste one taste. ”

"It's a bit of a waste. Zou Zhanye was a little appreciative when he heard this, after all, if you investigate, you may find something different if you eat a few more places. Chen Cong's words are very reasonable, "This family will have to be four or five hundred, according to your way of eating, we can't eat tens of thousands of yuan a day?"

"Seven million have been invested, and this little money is missing, so I'll invite it. Even if it is 10,000 yuan a day, it will be 70,000 yuan for a week, and I, as a major shareholder, will let me make some contributions. Chen Cong laughed and said.

"How could I have done such a thing? You're going to slap me in the face. Zou Zhanye obviously couldn't accept Chen Cong's suggestion, which turned into eating and drinking for nothing.

"It doesn't matter. You said in Nanjing, we are brothers, and there is nothing to worry about these little things. Chen Cong said.

Jiang Huiqin shook her head, looked at Chen Cong and didn't speak, knowing that the guy opposite was definitely not a swollen face and a fat man, but a real amount of money that he didn't care about the tens of thousands of yuan at all.

Chen Cong waved his hand to beckon the waiter, and happily paid the bill and left in the waiter's surprised eyes, leaving a table of dishes that had barely been touched.

However, the reality is often not as smooth as imagined, ZQ's bad traffic, crazy business of hot pot restaurants, and almost every one has to queue up. So although Chen Cong's plan for the three of them was very good, one night, until they returned to the hotel at ten o'clock, the three of them barely managed to finish 5 restaurants, and almost one took an hour.

Each one has its own characteristics, I can't say which one is absolutely good, which one is absolutely bad, but it is definitely a taste that Nanjing can't eat. There seems to be a magic between numb and spicy that cannot be described in words, and it is endlessly memorable.

"What are the ideas. "There was a lot of hot pot to eat, and the three of them ordered a pot of flower tea in the Hilton café, and chatted about tonight's harvest while drinking to relieve their greasyness.

"This taste, a little spicy removed, back to Nanjing is definitely interesting. Like that hairy belly or something, Nanjing seems to be a rare place to eat, at least I haven't noticed. Zou Zhanye said, "However, it is not suitable for our façade." It's a bit of a waste if our façade does this. To make hot pot, basically a table of ten people is used, and a table and a meal can only receive a wave of guests at most two times, which is a dead knot. ”

"Then the hot pot thing will wait for a suitable façade in the back, and then rule out the hot pot first?" Chen Cong said, "The hot pot feels not as good as Malatang, a space for a table of ten people can be placed on five or six booths, and after a meal, the hot pot will be made for a table, even if the consumption is high, eight hundred yuan will reach the sky, and no one will come to the high level." And Malatang can receive sixty or seventy people with five booths, and 20 yuan per person is more than 1,000. Our noodles, as long as the taste is not bad, there will definitely be no shortage of customers for making this kind of snack nature. ”

"Then tomorrow we won't eat hot pot and eat spicy hot?" Jiang Huiqin asked with a smile.

"Malatang, grilled fish, sauerkraut fish, dry pot and the like, I think it's still what I said last time, we are considering making single products, things that can be opened in single products, and we can focus on them in the next few days. Chen Cong said.

"Where did you get these theories, how do you feel that you know more about catering than me, how many years have I been exposed to it at home. Zou Zhanye looked at Chen Cong and asked with a puzzled expression, "It doesn't look like nonsense, it sounds quite reasonable." ”

Jiang Huiqin looked at Chen Cong and Zou Zhanye, and pursed her lips and smiled. In the dim light of the café, that smile is charming. Zou Zhanye couldn't help but be a little stupid. stared at Jiang Huiqin for a long time and didn't make a sound.

"Look, I haven't seen a beautiful woman. Jiang Huiqin's painting style changed, and she glared at Zou Zhanye with a pretty face and said.

Zou Zhanye came back to his senses at this time, and he was really attracted by Jiang Huiqin just now. coughed twice, hiding the embarrassment in his heart. The whole body leaned on the table, leaned in front of Jiang Huiqin and said ambiguously: "Beauty, I really didn't find you so beautiful before, how about it, why don't we make an appointment tonight." ”

"It's you. Jiang Huiqin smiled slightly, put on a cold posture, squinted at Zou Zhanye and said, "Little brother, I want to find a woman, the sauna department on the second floor of the hotel." ”

Fluttering, Chen Cong couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and then got up and walked out: "You go on, I won't be a light bulb, I will flash first." ”
