Chapter 219: Take a walk and chat with the Chinese people in Mao Island! 【2nd Update】
When I arrived at the hotel, the waiter warmly commanded the parking, and after getting out of the car, I didn't have to take anything for the salute, Zhang Feng stayed at a local resort.
"Real Mauritians? Just look at me," says Alain, the personable general manager of the resort.
"I always thought you were authentic French." Zhang Feng chatted with the manager.
"No, my father's ancestors came from India, he is a third generation Mauritian, my mother is Scottish, they met when they were studying in England, so they got married, I was born in England, but when I was five years old my father decided to move back to Mau Island, I grew up here, but my wife is French, and my two children live here."
The manager replied with a smile, looking like he was already in his forties, he was full of vitality when he spoke, and Zhang Feng politely asked the manager's age.
"Oh, I always thought you were in your forties!" Zhang Feng exclaimed, he didn't expect that this manager was already in his fifties.
"Really? That's really good, the more you live, the younger you get. "The manager has a smile on his face, and people in almost all countries in the world like to be said to look young.
After chatting about something else, I got that there are four restaurants in the resort, which are next to the pool, Zhang Feng suddenly became interested, eating delicious food, looking at the beauties in the pool, it is definitely a great enjoyment, saying goodbye to the manager, Zhang Feng walked towards the restaurant alone.
In addition to the natives of Maodao, there are all kinds of people who live here.
Oliver, the resort's German fitness instructor who moved his family from Europe to Mauritius a year ago, asked him why he chose Mauritius, "In addition to the pure natural environment, I like the peaceful atmosphere, mutual respect for each other's beliefs and lifestyles, and a very comfortable place." ”
……
When I came to the restaurant, I was warmly welcomed by the waiter, and naturally a tip was indispensable.
[Anchor, you are very frugal this time, so you gave a two-dollar tip! ] 】
[Haha, what does the anchor think, spend money happily! ] 】
……
"You know, the environment here is only suitable for a tip of one or two dollars, don't destroy the good traditions here, and use money to corrupt their souls, then it will be a shame for me to see the scenery all the way." Zhang Feng is a serious way.
[It seems to make a lot of sense.] 】
[Haha, interesting. 】
……
"Curry meat skewers, curry meat skewers sea urchin scrambled eggs, I didn't order much, I wanted to order some wine to have fun, but I still have to visit Port Louis later, so I don't drink."
Mauritian cuisine is recommended by many foodies because it has a very Mauritian flavor and is as diverse as its own culture, with elements of mixing and matching, but without lacking its own characteristics. African passion, French romance, British elegance, Indian charm, when culture and cuisine collide strongly, the food tasted here is of course combined with the diverse and unique flavors of Mauritius itself.
Curry-style kebabs are eaten with local spicy sauce, and the delicious gravy remains in your mouth.
"This is very good, for the first time I think the curry is pleasing to the eye, and the chili sauce feels spicy for me personally, within the tolerance range, is the gravy...... It doesn't have the tender water of a roasted hump, but it's good enough to show off its deliciousness, and I'll try the scrambled eggs. ”
Curry meat skewers sea urchin scrambled eggs, bright colors, the curry is covered on the surface, the sea urchin is not very obvious, because it is originally colorful, and the curry is mixed with it at a glance can not be distinguished, the eggs are fried very regularly, the white ground is inlaid with a yellow pearl, and there are curries and sea urchins of different colors next to it.
[Anchor, hurry up and eat, this dish doesn't feel difficult! ] 】
[Yes, go home at night and do it yourself.] 】
[Wow...... Look outside, look outside, it's too breasty! 】
[E, at least E.] 】
……
"What? Let me see! ”
Zhang Feng hurriedly looked outside, and there were actually several beautiful girls by the pool, which suddenly made people appetite.
"It's delicious, it's really a good place, but unfortunately I don't know if it's single." Zhang Feng said incoherently.
[The anchor is moved! ] 】
[There's no corner that can't be dug up, go dig it, anchor! ] 】
[We support you and give you a gift, on! ] 】
……
Zhang Feng shook his head and said, "Eat first, and then go out for a walk, go around, eat street food, and then take a look at the beauties by the way." ”
[The last sentence is the point, right?] 】
[The anchor is also budding. 】
……
"This sea urchin is very fresh, I feel that it will not take more than twenty hours to go ashore!" Zhang Feng forcibly pulled the topic, but the live broadcast room was still full of ridicule of his words.
After eating, Zhang Feng originally planned to walk, but found that there were resorts nearby, and there was still some distance from the town, so he drove away.
When I arrived at the bazaar, parked the car, Zhang Feng took the camera and walked around the town, the bazaar is actually just a vegetable market, the old woman wearing a sari, the aunt wearing a scarf, and the black man who is obviously of African descent, it seems that the great unification and integration of all ethnic groups in the world have been completed.
When the face of an old Chinese man appeared in his sight, Zhang Feng couldn't help but step forward to say hello, but unfortunately the other party couldn't understand Mandarin, he should have come from the south and could only speak his hometown. Next to the old man's supermarket, see the scale is not small, walk in, a middle-aged woman greeted up, in Mandarin asked Zhang Feng where he came from, it turned out to be the old man's daughter-in-law A Ying, a few years ago from Meixian County, Guangdong Province immigrated to Maodao, and her father-in-law, the old man has been here for more than half a century.
Whenever I meet such an old overseas Chinese overseas, a sense of intimacy arises spontaneously.
"The air here is good, life is much more leisurely, the pace is slow, and there is not as much pressure as the mainland." There were not many guests at the moment, so Ah Ying chatted with Zhang Feng for a while.
"At present, the store employs four helpers, and the most salary is only 1,500 yuan per month, the living standard here is relatively low, the Maodao people are very simple, these helpers are very honest, and easy to manage, and the Maodao people do not have high requirements for life."
Asked what he does when he is not working on weekdays, to Zhang Feng's surprise, Ah Ying said that he often goes to nearby high-end resorts for a weekend or something.
"I have stayed in the hotel here, and the one you stayed in was there during the Spring Festival, and the hotel facilities are very good."
It seems that she is very satisfied with the life on Mao Island, Zhang Feng did not ask her if she sees herself as a Mauritian, maybe not, after all, she has not been here for a long time, but maybe her children will regard this place as their homeland and hometown.
Some topics, brought up, seem to slander others, intentionally or unintentionally, sometimes, some words, don't ask, leave a little leeway, a little pleasant memory.
