56 The first dish in the world (1)
When the pancake master saw Gao Feng and Liu Zhigang coming back, he immediately stood up from the ground:
"I've finally found you, thank you so much for this little fairy. You are really accurate, today I swallowed my breath all day, but I didn't expect that the money that was swept away by a group of young people in the morning was sent back by the police in the afternoon. β
Before Gao Feng and Liu Zhigang entered the door, the pancake chef talked about today's twists and turns.
Just as Liu Zhigang and Gao Feng wanted to bring the master into the room to sit, the master stopped them:
"Let's go! Today I'm going to entertain you both. We have a few very famous restaurants in the city, which are the "first dishes in the world", and we will go there for a meal today, and I have already made a reservation. β
Of course, Gao Feng and Liu Zhigang are respectful rather than obedient, people are so enthusiastic, this bit of face must be given.
There is a long distance from where you live to the hotel, and several people walk there. Although they played in the villa for a day, Gao Feng and Liu Zhigang did not feel tired at all.
The road is bustling with pedestrians, the summer sun is sinking into the western hills, people are bored at home all day, and now they come out to breathe.
In an open area, many people are exercising, jogging, kicking a ball, pulling the horizontal bar...... It looks like this is a school playground, and people are hurrying to move and stretch their muscles.
However, what attracted Gao Feng's interest the most was that under a remote ancient camphor, an old man with a fluttering silver beard was standing on a stake facing the sun sinking in the west, with a focused expression, as if he wanted to suck the last trace of light from the sun into his body.
Gao Feng just shook his head in his heart, although the time chosen by this old man was very appropriate, the place he chose was still wrong.
The life of the city along the way is also a good scenery, so I feel that I will soon arrive at the "first dish in the world".
This is an old street built in the pre-Qing Dynasty, with thick walls and bricks, and the faΓ§ade is simple and has a historical charm. But there are still many families living here, doing all kinds of business on the street, cloth villages, teahouses, inns, restaurants. As soon as you walk into this street, you feel like you have traveled back in time.
In fact, there is not only one restaurant on this street known as "the world's first dish", Gao Feng took a cursory look and knew that there were three or four.
The signs of these "No. 1 dishes in the world" are all gold characters on a black background, and the appearance of the words is basically the same, but the breath revealed in the words is different: some seem to be arrogant and awe-inspiring, some seem to be the king of the world, and some are funny and elegant......
Of course, these are all situations that Gao Feng detected with his true qi. Although a person's words can reflect a person's temperament, it is still impossible to fully reflect it, because a person's emotions are very complex and will change with the change of environment. Therefore, there are Jianghu warlocks who measure and count eight characters in the people, and he can only roughly calculate the hearts of the writers at that time, and then pinch nonsense according to the current affairs at that time, then it depends on the adaptability of each Jianghu person.
But the pancake chef brought him into one of the most clumsy and lazy restaurants.
Gao Feng and Liu Zhigang wondered in their hearts whether the pancake master was unwilling to make money and wanted to buy favors to find such a worst shop. But there are also a lot of diners in this restaurant, maybe everyone because this dish is the cheapest.
But such an idea was immediately overturned by the facts in front of him. The dishes on the price list on the wall are at least twice as expensive as those elsewhere. And the names of these dishes are all preceded by the word "court": palace chicken, palace duck, palace steamed fish, palace cabbage......
It turned out that there was a big chef in this place, who was in charge of the cooking in the palace in the imperial house of the Qing court. Later, when the Qing court declined, these chefs returned to their hometown and used their skills to make money to support their families.
Most of these diners come to eat for the mystery of the court.
However, the chef of this family is still very arrogant, serving no more than three tables a day, and you must book in advance to eat.
What's even more annoying is that the food served in this restaurant is simply a bully with a bow and no turning back. The price list of the dishes on the wall is just to let customers know the price of the dishes, not for customers to order, and they don't need to order food at all when they come here.
As soon as I entered the store, the waiter asked if he had ordered food, and if he didn't, he would go to another house. "Hey!" It's really infuriating, and it's not good to take silver to make money for others. Unexpectedly, the business in front of the door was pushed to other companies. I really think of myself as a royal business, and I don't take ordinary customers seriously.
The waiter here is also dressed like Xiao Er in the film and television drama, wearing a blue robe, wearing a cloth on his head, and a long handkerchief on his shoulders, which still looks very snobbish.
Hearing that the pancake master said that he had ordered a meal from the chef, he immediately showed a warm smile with professional hospitality, and raised his voice and shouted: "Three guest officers, please here!" β
This little two led the three of Gao Feng to a table of eight immortals. The pancake chef wants to let the guests sit at the table, which is a sign of respect for the guests, and it is absolutely not allowed to be casual. Of course, Liu Zhigang should be allowed to sit according to his age, but Gao Feng is indeed a superhuman little fairy, and when the pancake master was in a dilemma, the shopkeeper opened his mouth: "The chief is staying there, you are lucky that there are only two tables later today, and our second master is here to accompany you to eat together." β
Gao Feng and the other three were almost so shocked that their eyes were about to fall out, and the emotional pancake master invited us, and we had to treat your shopkeeper as the master!
"I haven't invited any of your uncles or second masters?" The pancake chef said unexpectedly, "I'm inviting these two distinguished guests!" β
"This is what our lord can afford to look up to, and it is also your luck, people who came out of the former Qing Palace, don't they have to sit at the table to eat palace meals at home?" The shopkeeper rolled his face and said, "This is the rule of our 'No. 1 dish in the world', you can eat if you like, and if you don't eat, you will leave!" β
Liu Zhigang has been a soldier outside for more than ten years, and he has heard many northerners say that the gentlemen in the capital love to be big, and Hu Qi has met with which minister today, and which director of the general office will have a dinner tomorrow. But this is not the capital, just because the Qing court built a palace here, it was so extravagant.
Gao Feng is still a child, and he is not interested in paying attention to the dignity of the sitting, but is more interested in seeing how the second master from the former Qing Palace mixes and eats.
"Okay, okay! Okay......" Gao Feng said, "Isn't it just a meal?" Does it matter where you sit? β
"This little guest officer is quite sensible!" With that, the shopkeeper walked to the back kitchen.
As soon as the three of them sat down, the shopkeeper brewed a pot of faint flower tea.
There are a lot of rules for this small shop, but it is also fresh and refreshing, and the furnishings are also antique, and there are a lot of porcelain and antiques. I also had to get the wealth of this shopkeeper.
Even on a summer day, Gao Feng looked around, and it turned out that a large wooden barrel had been placed in various corners, and some ice cubes were placed in it. A small fan is also installed on top of the barrel, which blows slowly in the direction of the dining table.
The anger in Liu Zhigang and Gao Feng's hearts was swept away, this is really the enjoyment of the soil emperor, at this time, the air conditioner is not affordable for ordinary people, but the earth air conditioner is used here.
A few people sat down to taste tea slowly, but the dish was indeed not served for a long time.
