Chapter 204: Quanjude

Guhuai City is only more than 100 miles away from Beiping, and before noon, the train stopped at Beiping Railway Station, and the group came to Beiping City smoothly.

Ishikawa Ichiro still lived in the headquarters of the Japanese military police in Beiping, and Feng Tiandong didn't care that the other people who came with him lived there, and took Erliang and Shi to the Six Nations Hotel together.

Located near Dongjiaomin Lane, Beiping Liuguo Hotel is a joint venture of Britain, France, the United States, Germany, Japan and Russia, built by the British, including accommodation, catering, entertainment and other services, and is one of the two most upscale hotels in Beiping.

The Rokkoku Hotel is a four-storey western-style building that is imposing compared to the surrounding buildings. Due to the hotel's complete entertainment facilities, authentic and fashionable Western food, and magnificent ballroom, it has gradually become a place where high-ranking officials and nobles of the upper class of Peking society often gather. Most of the ministers, government officials, and celebrities from all over the world who came to Peking also stayed here.

Whether it was in his previous life or now, Feng Tiandong had heard of this Liuguo Hotel, which was very famous during the Republic of China, and according to his personality, he must live there.

Feng Tiandong came to Beiping and once again showed his greedy and playful temperament.

As soon as he settled down in the Liuguo Hotel, Feng Tiandong couldn't wait to leave the hotel with Erliang and Xiaoshi, and came to the "Quanjude" roast duck restaurant not far from the hotel, located at the front door.

In his previous life, Feng Tiandong had eaten roast duck from various famous restaurants, including Quanjude's, of course, but according to the older generation, the current roast duck has long lost its original traditional characteristics, and the taste is far from good.

Unable to taste the authentic roast duck, so that Feng Tiandong has always been a pity, since now I am fortunate to come to Beiping in this period, then we must try this authentic "Quanjude" roast duck,

Beiping "Quanjude" roast duck restaurant is located in Qianmenwai Street, from the outside the store is not very big, the whole store is a brick and wood mixed attic building, simple and elegant.

Standing at the door of the store, a strong and unique traditional cultural atmosphere is blowing in the face, the golden plaque above the door is a highlight of the roast duck restaurant, the plaque on the "Quanjude" three golden characters, vigorous, mellow and eye-catching.

Walking into the "Quanjude" roast duck restaurant, I immediately smelled the fragrance of fruit trees wafting in the lobby. The whole hall is paved with blue bricks, clean and tidy, and opposite the gate is a huge pitch-black counter, on which in addition to abacus, pen, ink, paper and inkstone and other account supplies, there is also a gramophone, which is playing Peking Opera records.

The interior of the store was a little different from Feng Tiandong's imagination, the hall was a little low and dim, and there were more than a dozen Eight Immortal tables loosely arranged, with simple low-backed chairs.

Seeing someone enter the door, the lobby guy wearing a small green coat and hat greeted loudly, with a warm smile on his face, giving people a real feeling of being at home.

Feng Tiandong smiled and asked the guy for a private room, and the guy led them over neatly.

The private room is not big, because there is a large window on the wall, which is much brighter than the lobby. The round table in the private room is not the common modern one, it is also an eight-immortal table, and there are four high-backed chairs that match the table, which is much more upscale than the tables and chairs in the lobby.

As soon as they sat down, the young man asked them if they would like to pick the duck billet themselves. Feng Tiandong felt very novel when he heard that he could still choose duck blanks by himself, so he followed his men to a clean room next to the back kitchen, and as soon as he entered the door, he could see where there were rows of duck blanks that had been cleaned, eviscerated, and air-dried.

In fact, Feng Tiandong didn't understand the quality of the duck billet, so he had to pretend to pick a duck billet that seemed more pleasing to him under the gaze of the guy, raised his hand and nodded, indicating that the guy was this one.

After Feng Tiandong finished choosing, the roast duck master immediately came over to take away the duck blank for further processing.

Returning to the private room with a sense of freshness, Feng Tiandong ordered some side dishes first, and then drank a few cold dishes such as salted duck liver, mustard duck paw, and cold radish with Erliang Shi.

More than half an hour later, a neatly dressed young man walked into the private room quickly with a tray, and suddenly a tempting aroma wafted in the private room, on the tray was a freshly roasted, crimson purple, roast duck that had not collapsed.

The young man held the tray and asked Feng Tiandong and them to enjoy the roast duck. Looking at the fragrant roast duck on the tray, everyone's appetite suddenly surged, and they couldn't help swallowing saliva, and the small stone that was not fighting actually left saliva along the corner of the mouth.

Soon, because cold air blew into the duck, the roast duck began to collapse, and the young man put the tray on a small table and began to slice the duck for Feng Tiandong and the others.

At the same time as slicing the duck, the lobby guy began to quickly put the ingredients for eating roast duck: sweet noodle sauce, shredded green onions, lotus leaf cakes, sesame baked cakes, etc. on the table of eight immortals, and brought a tray with towels.

Feng Tiandong didn't pay attention to the guy who placed the ingredients, his eyes kept staring at the young man with the duck, and he saw that the young man was not afraid of being hot, and he was moving quickly with a knife.

His eyes admired the exquisite knife workmanship, and he silently remembered the number of duck slices in his heart.

No more, no less, a full one hundred and eight slices, just enough to clean the whole roast duck slices, only the duck rack remains. And the roast duck under the slice is a slice with skin and a slice of meat, Feng Tiandong couldn't help but be shocked by the young man's exquisite skills.

However, there is also a pity, that is, the roast duck under the slice has not been carefully stacked, and it is all scattered on the plate, which makes the plate not look neat and beautiful.

Smelling the fragrance of roast duck, Xiao Shi's saliva flowed out uncontrollably again, but since Feng Tiandong hadn't moved his chopsticks yet, the three of them naturally had to watch it first.

Looking at Xiao Shi's gluttonous look, Feng Tiandong chuckled, took the steaming white towel on the tray from the guy who had been standing beside him, wiped his hands clean, and then reached out and pinched a lotus leaf cake, ready to show the three of them how to eat roast duck.

But when Feng Tiandong picked up the lotus leaf cake, he was once again strongly shocked, and he inadvertently found that through the lotus leaf cake, he could clearly see the saliva flowing from the corner of the mouth of the small stone sitting opposite, which was too delicate and too thin, making people feel that they couldn't bear to swallow.

Feng Tiandong rolled the duck slices, green onions, and sweet noodle sauce into the lotus leaf cake, regardless of the image, and began to feast. The other three people understood it, and they also followed Feng Tiandong's example, and quickly rolled up the roast duck with lotus leaf cakes and ate it in a big gulp.

Soon, a roast duck was eaten clean by the four of them.

It's so delicious! Looking at the three of them who were still unsatisfied, and then looking at the empty plates on the table of the Eight Immortals, Feng Tiandong also felt that he hadn't eaten enough, so he had to find another guy and order a roast duck.

The four of them ate a belly garden, satisfied, and slowly walked back to the hotel.
