Chapter 490: Local Food
"Excuse me, where are the restaurants in this town?" Seeing that the residents of the town didn't seem to be hostile to him, Jiang Hai thought for a moment and asked a man walking by.
Hearing Jiang Hai's words, the man was obviously stunned for a moment, and then a string of words that Jiang Hai didn't understand came out of his mouth.
"Uh, what do you mean?" Listening to this man's words, Jiang Hai couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, what is the situation?
"Boss, he speaks Spanish." Looking at Jiang Hai's appearance of 13, Bell Lester next to him couldn't help but smile.
Since Columbus discovered the American continent, in fact, for a long time, almost three or four hundred years, South America was actually the territory of Portugal and Spain, and the original natives here have actually been killed by them.
The rest are the slaves they brought over, and most of these people are from Africa, so there are many countries now, almost all of whom are of the same race as the black people in Africa, and it can also be said that they are of the same origin, such as Cuba, Jamaica and other countries.
Puerto Rico was also Spain's territory at the beginning, and the indigenous people were almost killed, but later because of the Spanish-American War, the United States did not have too many restrictions and requirements for the colonies.
So before World War I, Americans had almost no status in the world, and at that time the world leader was Britain, the army leader was France, and the place of rise was Germany. And the Netherlands is the former boss. Spain is the former boss......
The United States has never been the boss. After all, he had only just become independent.
But when they took over Puerto Rico, they were going to send people over, so they sent a lot of whites.
The local whites, blacks, and Indians who have not died are mixed, and the current generation of Puerto Ricans is indeed very good-looking, they have the physique of a black man, and the appearance of a white man. The Indians belong to the Asian Mongolian lineage, so they have the black hair of the Orientals, and the delicate five views, and also have very small pores, not as coarse pores as white people, nor like black people with weird bone development, it is precisely because of this that Puerto Rico is famous for its abundance of beautiful women.
The most powerful country in the world is Venezuela, but they are so popular there that Puerto Ricans can't even afford to eat. So there is no money to shape them, but what they look like. But it is famous, especially women, quite popular.
has a slender figure, delicate five views, and a plump upper circumference, I have to admit that they are all stunners.
One of the more typical beauties is Rose Rain-Sanchez, that is, when Cheng Long played the second peak moment, the foreign agent who deceived Cheng Long was indeed not bad, and in the movie, he severely suppressed the international chapter.
The topic is a bit off the hook...... Although Puerto Rico now wants to join the United States and become the fifty-first state of the United States, their official language here is still the same as that of the original Spanish period, and their people here are mainly Spanish-speaking.
And in English, there are not many people who really know, so Jiang Hai talked to this person for a long time, and it was really a chicken and a duck, and there was a tie, Jiang Hai couldn't understand what he said, and he couldn't understand what Jiang Hai said.
In the end, he had no choice but to let go of this person, Jiang Hai could only go to find someone he knew, the only person who could speak English was the guard chief, and the guard chief was naturally very happy when he saw Jiang Hai come over.
So he introduced Jiang Hai, don't look at this small town, there are only more than 1,000 people living in it, but although Massachusetts is small, it is very complete, not only shops, restaurants, hotels, and even bars.
Because sometimes there are Americans here, but they all come by plane, like Jiang Hai who comes by boat, they are the first time to see it, and after these Americans come here, they will choose to dive and other plays.
The Caribbean Sea is known as the cleanest water in the world, and the sea here is really crystal clear, especially in the coral reef area, which is really a holy place for diving, so there are many people who come to dive every year, in order to cope with the consumption of these people, the natural town has also prepared a lot of things, Jiang Hai asked for a while, and he determined where he was going.
He was going to go to a restaurant for a bite to eat before he thought about going to a bar.
Of course, it was Bale who mainly wanted to go to the bar, and Jiang Hai was just a companion, and he was not interested in these places.
After asking the way clearly, Jiang Hai also gave the guard chief a hundred US dollars, which is considered a tip and a protection fee, and Jiang Hai will be more at ease with him, a local snake, watching here.
After receiving Jiang Hai's money, the guard chief became even more enthusiastic, and even took Jiang Hai to a restaurant in the town in person.
Entering this restaurant, Jiang Hai found that there were really a lot of people in this restaurant, and when he glanced at the food on the table, it was basically fish, after all, they didn't have much land area here, and they mainly had to grow cocoa.
Therefore, meat and everything must be imported from the United States, but the price of imported things is certainly not cheap.
Even if the United States doesn't have to pay customs duties when it comes here, the freight must be expensive, so the beef here is very expensive.
Basically, there are no people who eat it, and their main food is fish, and sometimes there is chicken after changing the taste.
When Jiang Hai and Bell arrived at the restaurant, they really attracted the attention of almost everyone.
They didn't care, so they sat down at an empty table in the restaurant, and after a while, a Puerto Rican girl came over and asked Jiang Hai in slightly rusty English, "What do you want to eat?" ”
"Don't have a menu?" understood her words, but Jiang Hai was a little surprised, because he didn't know what to eat.
"We cook here, there are only four methods, boiled, roasted, stewed and fried, you have to choose what you eat first, and then tell us what you want to eat." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, it was obvious that this girl was not the first time she had encountered such a guest, so she just shrugged her shoulders and said helplessly to them.
"Uh, what raw materials do you have here?" Hearing what the girl said, Jiang Hai couldn't help but be speechless, and then asked.
"It's just chicken and fish." The girl listened to Jiang Hai's words, and pointed directly to the wall, she knew that Jiang Hai would definitely ask what kind of fish, it was better to let him see it himself, sure enough, following the girl's point, Jiang Hai also looked at the wall.
Only then did he realize that there was a painting on the wall with a lot of fish, divided into three columns and four parts.
In fact, this painting is posted in all restaurants, hotels, and dive shops throughout the Caribbean.
This is a uniform fish sales table in the Caribbean, and of course, it does not refer to the price, but to the species.
It is divided into four parts, one part is recommended to eat fish, one part is edible fish, some is not recommended to eat fish, and some part is not allowed to eat fish.
Jiang Hai took a look, and the fish on the painting, in addition to a cartoon image, was also accompanied by an English language at the back.
It seems that this is for the sake of these people, and to be honest, Jiang Haigan's fishing ground has been around for almost a year.
Basically, he recognized the fish in his fishing grounds, but there were many fish on it that he didn't recognize.
He didn't know him, so Bell was even more vain, and the first item he recommended to eat fish was lionfish, lionfish.
This fish, also known as the scorpionfish, was originally a fish that did not exist in the Caribbean, and the reason why it appeared here is because a typhoon used to blow a Miami aquarium away, and the ancestors of these fish came by the typhoon.
After settling here, because the lionfish itself has good combat effectiveness, the spines on its body are still poisonous.
So in addition to sharks, this fish is not afraid of any fish, but sharks are limited after all, so this fish is the same as the Australian hare, and now it is a pest here, all the shops recommend eating this fish, and diving tourists can also catch this fish to feed the sharks, it seems that these people are also quite helpless.
Under the lionfish, the English name of the second fish is cero, and it is definitely not possible to go to Du Niang according to this name.
This fish is called mackerel, also known as mackerel, and the fish under this fish is called KINGFISH, according to the translation, it is the king fish, but in fact, it is not, this fish is called the king mackerel, and it is also a kind of mackerel, but it is very large.
The fish outside is called SpanishMackerel, and it looks like a tall fish, but in fact, there are also fish in the country, and it is very cheap, mackerel, and people who live near the city know this kind of fish, mackerel dumplings, which are quite famous.
However, this fish is much larger than the domestic fish, and compared to the fish here, the domestic mackerel is the fry.
THE WAHOO IN THE BACK, THIS FISH IS CALLED WAHOO, AND THE TREVALLIES IN THE BACK IS TRANSLATED AS MANTA RAY, BUT IN FACT, IT IS CALLED TREVALLY HERE, AND IT IS ALSO A FISH, THE MOST FAMOUS IS THAT THE TREVALLY IS VERY LARGE, BUT THE TASTE IS AVERAGE.
After the trevally, there is a kind of fish that Jiang Hai does not know, called MAHIMAHI, this fish is also very strange, it is the first time Jiang Hai has seen it, and Jiang Hai knows the two kinds of fish below, YellowtailSnapper, this fish is called yellow snapper.
Jiang Hai knew that there were also in his manor, and he had never seen the yellow one.
Behind this fish is TUNA, tuna, that is, tuna, in the Xiangjiang area, this fish is called tuna is translated from this, but when translated into Mandarin in China, it is called tuna.
The last recommended food is SQUID, squid, and that's all the recommended edible fish. (To be continued.) )
