Chapter 45: An Unusual Banquet

"Director Tang, this is it." Luo Fatzi pointed to the light box signboard on the side of the building.

"Didn't I see a bun shop in front of me? And so many people. Director Tang asked suspiciously.

"This gentleman, we have a bun shop on the first floor of the leisurely farm, and a private restaurant on the second floor, all of which are opened by a boss. Please go this way. The waitress in a light gray uniform with a white face stretched out her hand to lead the way.

The group made a gurgling sound as the waiter walked up the steel staircase. Go up to the second floor, head north again, and then turn into a doorway and enter the interior of the building.

It is a corridor covered with a crimson carpet, with warm downlights on the white ceiling, soft light sprinkled on the beige wallpaper on the walls and a few framed landscapes, and the unusual banquet doors on both sides of the corridor extend to the south.

The waitress opened the door to a private room to the east.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please come in."

Director Tang entered first, the private room is about ten square meters, the wall is cherry wood veneer and soft bag, a glass lamp hangs from the ceiling, reflecting the round dining table covered with white tablecloth in the center of the room, and several sets of bone blue and white porcelain tableware are evenly distributed on the table, which looks quite exquisite.

According to Director Tang's vision, the decoration here is also at an average level, but this is not the focus of this trip, and it doesn't matter.

The visitors rushed in, and Luo Fatzi was the last to come in.

In the end, Director Tang, who had the highest rank, and Director Xia of China Merchants Bureau sat on the main seat by the window, and other section chiefs, directors, and officers also sat in order. There are a total of eight people, which is the lowest level of Luo Fatzi, and the chair by the door naturally becomes his patent.

Everyone first talked about Zhang San's transfer, Li Si's promotion, Wang Wu's scandal, Xu Liu's marriage to Zhao Qi, and the latest rumors about the above personnel arrangements. Finally, we talked about the restaurant itself.

Chapter 45 An Unusual Banquet "This place is really out of the way, the signboard is actually hanging on the side of the house, if it weren't for Xiao Luo, it would be really hard to find." Wearing gold-rimmed glasses, Section Chief Zhang said with a smile.

"Little Don, why did you remember to come to this place? Didn't you often go to Deshun Building before? Director Xia, who is about fifty years old and has obvious bags under his eyes, asked.

"What's the point of going to Deshun Lou when you're old, it's time to change your taste." Director Tang smiled faintly.

"Old Tang, it's your turn to be the east today, and you come to this small place, won't you want to save money?" Lin Section Chief of the Planning Bureau quipped.

"Save money? Hehe. Do you know how much the private table here costs? Not counting alcohol. "Director Tang came up with a question for everyone to guess.

"If there is no special material, it is estimated that it will be one or two thousand."

"I look at the grade of this environment, **100 yuan is enough."

The corners of Director Tang's mouth turned up, these guys are really enough to damage him.

"Hehe, you guys are underestimating this store, tell you, this number." Director Tang stretched out an index finger.

Everyone was surprised, although they had also eaten a higher price than this meal, but after all, it was a VIP restaurant in a five-star hotel, here, how do you look like it?

Director Tang was very satisfied with everyone's reactions, and he continued:

"You all call yourself foodies, and you want to give a good review for a while, is it worth the price? If it's not worth it, hehe, the price bureau is not a decoration. ”

Now everyone here is interested, and today's meal seems to be very interesting.

At this moment, a young man carried a long-spouted copper teapot, brewed all the gaiwan tea in front of everyone, and then said a word to the mountain spring Longjing and left.

After a minute, the fresh and pleasant aroma slowly diffused in the room, and everyone seemed to be in the green grass of the mountains.

"What a pure smell." Director Xia is a master of tea tasting, and when he smells it, he knows that the tea in the cup is extraordinary.

He held up the tea bowl with his left hand, gently scraped the water surface with the tea lid with his right hand, then tilted the tea bowl and slowly inhaled. Close your eyes and savor it.

"The brown color is clear and sweet, and it is the essence of fresh, refreshing and lively, and it is really the best quality." Director Xia smiled and commented.

"The tea fragrance is long and long, condensed but not dispersed, and its taste is fresh and round, which is really good." Section Chief Zhang put down the tea bowl and nodded in agreement with satisfaction.

Director Tang was a little impressed by this restaurant, and the dishes were not served yet, just ordinary West Lake Longjing tea was brewed to this level, which was not simple.

The door opened, and two waitress held trays and began to serve the dishes, reporting the names of the dishes one by one.

Twelve dishes, including orange chrysanthemum fish, boiled original shrimp, hibiscus shrimp balls, stir-fried sausage with eyebrow peas, hot and sour cucumber strips, stir-fried cabbage with garlic, stewed wild fish soup, and chopped pepper loofah cup, are served on the table in turn.

Everyone saw that these dishes were ordinary ingredients, and although the workmanship was exquisitely arranged, it did not seem to meet their high prices. So they looked at Director Tang with puzzled eyes one by one.

Director Tang didn't underestimate these dishes, because the fat man had already been vaccinated in advance. And with the precedent of Gaiwan tea just now, he also has expectations for these dishes.

The turntable moved the orange chrysanthemum fish to Director Xia, and Director Tang motioned for him to taste it first.

Director Xia said a few polite words, then stretched out his chopsticks and picked up a piece on the back of the fish and put it in his mouth.

When the fish meat is crispy on the surface and tender on the inside, it melts as if there is no condensation in the mouth, and the touch of the tongue is like silk, and the delicious, fragrant, sweet and sour taste quickly spreads, filling the entire mouth and rushing to the throat.

"The meat is delicious, full of elasticity, and it must be the best carp in the wild." Director Xia's tone fluctuated a little, it had been a long time since he had eaten such a mellow wild fish.

Hearing Director Xia's praise, the others also had a great appetite, and they put down their chopsticks one after another, and two carps of more than one pound quickly collapsed under the powerful offensive of the gluttons, leaving only a pile of fish bones.

"Director Xia said it well, I haven't seen such a pure wild fish for several years."

"It's so mellow and rich, the things in Deshun Building are really far worse than this."

Secretary Wang sat next to Luo Fatzi, who, like Luo Fatzi, also came to accompany the leader. When you look for an opportunity, you naturally want the leader to show it.

"Director Xia, how can you be sure that this is a wild carp?" Secretary Wang made an open mind to ask for advice.

Director Xia smiled slightly, took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and then said:

"In fact, the reason is very simple, the fish are raised in a small pond, the density is high, the exercise is insufficient, and the addition of various auxins in the fish feed causes the fish meat to be relaxed, bland and tasteless. Wild fish are different, they live in the vast rivers, lakes and seas, eat natural food, and because it is not easy to eat, they have to swim a long distance every day, and they exercise sufficiently, so the meat is elastic enough and delicious. ”

"It also has to be natural water that has not been polluted to raise such wild fish." Director Tang added.

Everyone present cooperated and praised them, saying that they had gained knowledge. Officer Wang took out the Wuliangye prepared in advance and poured a cup in front of everyone.

The atmosphere in the private room is also warm, with sweet boiled shrimp with bright red stripes, clotted wild fish soup, sweet and refreshing hot and sour melon strips, and fresh and sweet chopped pepper loofah cups, everyone at the table is immersed in the wave impact of food.

When the last drawer of fine xiaolongbao was divided, the diners breathed a long sigh of relief in satisfaction, and their faces were full of red. They all said that today was really in the right place, and they had a good meal and a good drink. Director Tang has a unique eye, and he actually found a pearl in the many restaurants in Tianhai City, which is really amazing. Compared with here, the so-called high-end restaurants I went to before were better decorated, and the food tasted no different from the migrant workers' canteen.

Director Tang looked at the plate that had been looted cleanly on the table, listened to everyone's compliments in his ears, and couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, although this table of dishes was expensive, it earned him a lot of face, and it was worth it.

He glanced at the fat man, Luo Fat Man said that he understood, took the leather bag and went outside to settle the bill, of course, the invoice must be issued.

Luo Fatzi didn't talk much tonight, and he didn't enjoy the food to the fullest, but the wine was a lot of toasting, nonsense, so many big and small leaders were present, how could it not be his turn to shake off his cheeks and greet him, no, I have to find Ranzi to compensate afterwards, otherwise it will be too cheap for that kid. !!
