JS246 Another profiteer!
August 6, half past six in the evening.
After a terrible traffic jam, Ahn Liang and Yoona finally arrive in Myeongdong and are lucky enough to find a parking space.
When An Liang parked, Yun'er took out another cap and a pair of toad glasses from the small satchel she was carrying.
Yuna put on a toad mirror and matched the cap on her head, and the degree of camouflage was already very high. Unless it's a familiar person, it's basically impossible to see through Yuna's disguise.
Before getting out of the car, Yun'er put another cap on An Liang's head, and carefully adjusted the angle before clapping her hands and saying, "Very good!" Oppa, I'm almost unrecognizable when you're wearing a hat! β
An Liang waved his hand, "Let's go, let's go find the tonkatsu." β
"Hee-hee, Oppa, I'll lead the way, I know a pork cutlet is delicious!" Yuna took the initiative to take on the task of leading the way.
However, An Liang was faintly worried, for fear that Yun'er would lead the wrong way.
Myeongdong though in the Seoul River. The northern area, but Myeongdong is also bustling, and Myeongdong is bustling with people at night, not only Seoul locals, but also tourists from all over the world.
The two people who had been disguised walked on the lively streets, and they were really not recognized. However, An Liang's previous worries seem to have become a reality.
Yuna stood at a crossroads, uncertain, "Should it be left or right?" Not forward anyway, I remember to turn. β
An Liang patted his forehead, "Yun'er, how long ago was the last time you came over?" β
"Soon! About three months ago! Yun'er's face was slightly red.
"Alright! Do you remember, what was the name of that tonkatsu? An Liang asked again.
Yun'er's eyes lit up, "I remember this." It should be called Golden Crispy Pork Cutlet. β
"Are you sure?" An Liang also had a bad feeling, what is called 'should'. Isn't it 'certain' to name it?
"I'm sure!" Yuna nodded affirmatively.
"Okay, okay, you wait for me." An Liang left Yun'er two steps away. Using fluent Korean, he asked a middle-aged man.
"Hello, big brother, I want to ask, where is the golden crispy pork cutlet? I haven't been here for a while and I forgot the exact location. An Liang asked politely.
The middle-aged man questioned, who appeared to be in his forties, was dressed in a formal suit and walked in a hurry. It should be a white-collar worker who rushed home after work.
"Golden crispy tonkatsu? Continue 300 meters and you will be able to see it in the right-hand direction. After the middle-aged man answered, he left quickly, and An Liang didn't have time to thank him.
Walking back to Yun'er's side, An Liang was a little speechless and said, "Yun'er, the golden crispy pork cutlet is in the position directly ahead!" β
Yuna laughed, "Really? As I said earlier, it must be in front. Certainly not on the left and right. β
"Uh" If An Liang is not mistaken, what Yun'er just said seems to be definitely not in front, right? Could it be that there is something wrong in An Liang's memory?
The only thing to be thankful for is that Yoona didn't misremember the name of the pork cutlet shop. It's really called Golden Crispy Pork Cutlet. The two walked for nearly ten minutes, mainly because there were many people on the street, and it was impossible to speed up the pace.
An Liang kept observing the shop sign on the right-hand side. Finally, I found the shop sign of the golden crispy pork cutlet, in the dim light of the evening. The Golden Crispy Tonkatsu is a very humble sign. At least, the shop for the golden crispy tonkatsu. Instead of a neon sign like the surrounding signs, there is a wooden plaque that looks old.
"This is it!" Yuna pointed to the wooden plaque.
At the entrance of the Golden Crispy Pork Chop, there was no long queue as An Liang expected, but there were some doors.
In general, the number of customers of a catering company is often proportional to the taste. If the taste is good, there must be a lot of customers, and it is natural to queue up for a long time; If the taste is not good, it will naturally not be recognized by customers, and it is very normal for the door to be crowded.
An Liang asked in a low voice, "Yun'er, are you sure that this pork cutlet is delicious?" How do I look and feel bad about the taste? β
Yuna smiled and said, "Oppa, don't worry, I'm 100% sure that this pork cutlet is very delicious." Speaking of this, Yun'er glanced at An Liang with a strange look, "In addition, Oppa, the owner of this store, must have the same business philosophy as you." β
"Huh?" An Hao asked curiously, "What's the situation?" β
"Let's go! Oppa, let's go in and try the tonkatsu here! Yuna walked in front and led the way, and walked into the pork cutlet shop that looked to be a few years old.
In the pork cutlet restaurant, there are only five small tables, and there is not a single customer, and after Yuna and An Liang walked in, they finally brought a little bit of anger.
When Yuna and An Liang sat down, a woman who looked to be around fifty years old came to the two of them and asked, "What do you want to eat?" We only have tonkatsu, so you can choose from a variety of dipping sauces. β
Yuna politely said, "I want an original tonkatsu with tomato sauce." β
An Liang looked at the menu posted on the wall, there are three flavors of tonkatsu, which are original, five-spiced, and spicy; There are many flavors of dipping sauces, including ketchup, peanut butter, strawberry jam, applesauce, and even spicy cabbage sauce.
"I want a spiced tonkatsu, and then peanut butter!" An Liang said his choice.
The middle-aged woman recorded it, turned around and left casually, and Yuna began to settle down for the Golden Crispy Pork Cutlet, "Oppa, do you know how old the Golden Crispy Pork Cutlet is?" β
An Liang shook his head, how could he know?
Yun'er introduced it a little shyly, "The history of golden crispy pork cutlets is more than 50 years!" The aunt just now is the store manager Li Huizhen, and it is rumored that when she was fifteen years old, she had followed her father to learn the technique of tonkatsu. Now, she has been frying pork chops for more than thirty-five years, in terms of taste. The best in Myeongdong. No, in the whole of Seoul. Also the best! β
"You know!" An Liang responded with a smile.
"Actually, this is a food show before. The location of the revelations. According to the introduction of that food program, the tonkatsu here is made from free-range organic varieties. In addition, each pork chop is hammered for two hours using a special mallet in a specially developed marinating tank. The meat is fluffy during the hammering process and the marinade is allowed to enter the pork chops. Finally, once again will hammer the finished pork chops. Put it in the secret condiment and soak it for 24 hours before you can take it out and use it! "Yun'er has a good memory, and she can describe the content of the food show almost completely.
An Liang also makes tonkatsu, but without the participation of the Fountain of Life, it definitely doesn't taste good!
About seven or eight minutes later, two servings of browned pork cutlets were brought up by Li Huizhen, inside two white plates. Like Western food, there is a knife and fork, and it is obvious that you need to cut the pork cutlet yourself.
Yoona picked up her knife and fork and began to cut the tonkatsu. When Yuna cuts open the tonkatsu, a mixture of pork and egg yolk wafts into her nose.
An Liang cut the tonkatsu in front of him himself. His pork cutlet also has some more flavor of plant spices, and An Liang has already distinguished the taste of cumin and cinnamon. There are also hints of star anise and peppercorns, as for the last cloves. An Liang didn't smell it.
Cut a large piece of pork chop into small strips. An Liang decided to taste the original flavor first, he used a silver fork, inserted a small strip of pork chops, fed it into his mouth and chewed it.
The egg yolk, flour and breadcrumbs wrapped in the pork chop are very crispy to chew, but the pork inside is delicate and juicy, obviously because of the hammering, so that the meat quality of the pork loin becomes very delicate, and there is no feeling that ordinary fried pork can't bite in.
"Not bad!" An Liang swallowed the tonkatsu in his mouth and complimented.
Yun'er said smugly: "I just said, this pork cutlet is delicious, right?" β
"Hmm!" An Liang affirmed Yun'er's statement, the taste of this pork cutlet is indeed delicious, but why are there no customers? It's not scientific!
In about a quarter of an hour, the two finished eating the tonkatsu, and when it came time to check out, An Liang finally understood why Yuna said that the owner of the golden crispy tonkatsu had the same business philosophy as him. At the same time, I understand why it tastes so good and there are no customers.
Because, the price of two pieces of tonkatsu is as high as 800,000 won! Simply converted, 800,000 won is about equal to 4,000 Xia Guowon.
If you only count the price of two pork chops, it will only be one or two hundred yuan!
An Liang looked at the menu and price list on the wall again, and he had to sigh helplessly, he had just looked at the price by a zero.
Because, the price of 40,000 won for a piece of pork cutlet is already very expensive, let alone 400,000. After all, in Myeongdong, other tonkatsu restaurants, tonkatsu is generally only 20,000 or 30,000 won, which can't blame An Liang for misreading the price.
Although the price is very high, 800,000 won is nothing to An Liang, and after An Liang checks out, he leaves the Golden Crispy Pork Chop Restaurant with Yuna.
"Ah, so full, so full!" Yuna snorted softly.
The 800,000 golden crispy pork cutlet is very generous in terms of portion, and the two of them ate the fried pork cutlet, and they both had a feeling of being full.
"Oppa, how is it, does Aunt Li Huizhen have the same business philosophy as you? With such an expensive price, you don't need too many customers to keep the store running, right? Yuna asked with speculation.
An Liang nodded, and then asked, "Yun'er, has the business of that pork cutlet always been so bleak?" β
"Not really! It's just that at this point in time, it's not the peak of business. In addition, I heard that the Golden Crispy Tonkatsu store will also sell it in limited quantities! Yoona replaced the owner of the golden crispy pork cutlet, Lee Hye-jin, boasted.
An Liang nodded somewhat understandingly, the business method of golden crispy pork cutlet may also be applied to the forest restaurant. Originally, Ahn Liang was a little worried about whether the forest restaurant would cause a strong backlash from consumers in the Seoul area if it adopted a super high price and made a limited number of reservations.
But now that he saw the golden crispy tonkatsu, An Liang realized that there was also a traitor in Seoul. Merchants...
