Jiang Zhilian immediately became nervous, "You're going home early tomorrow morning, right?" ”

Meng Qing nodded, "Well, I want to talk to my mother." ”

"Then let's go back together." Jiang Zhilian frowned and said, "Youting should go to my aunt after the exam, and I'll go see her." I guess I'm tired of reviewing my homework, and I've been hot and cold lately, so I'm quite prone to colds. ”

The waiter came over and said, "There is a free table, please come with me." ”

Jiang Zhilian temporarily put aside her worries about Youting, and when she walked behind the waiter, she kept paying close attention to the dishes on the passing table.

I was sitting in a small part of the position.

Now it's just the right time to take a few more looks at the missing parts.

Ordinary people may glance at it like this, and they can't see anything famous.

But Jiang Zhilian is professional in cooking, and can find many details that ordinary people can't notice.

What creative dishes were there, what dishes were improved, and what dishes she forgot or overlooked.

Even in ordinary dishes, whether there are special ingredients or spices added, these need to be carefully observed, memorized, and slowly tried and studied when you go back.

Only by learning from excellent peers and being good at learning from each other's strengths and weaknesses can we progress and grow faster.

All the pots of the Mandarin Duck hot pot in the hall are the same, and there is no other complicated design.

Jiang Zhilian took the menu from the waiter and saw that there were only two kinds of soup bases, one spicy and one not spicy.

Side dishes are not ordered individually, but there are only five different combinations for guests to choose from.

I guess it's for easy food preparation!

In this way, the restaurant can better control the amount of ingredients purchased and ensure that all the ingredients in the kitchen are the freshest.

However, this is not very friendly to vegetarians.

Because Jiang Zhilian found that there are meat dishes in every set meal.

The biggest problem is that there doesn't seem to be a vegetarian soup base.

After all, there are not many vegetarians these days, and there are only a handful of strict vegetarians like Meng Qing.

Even if there were, I would prefer to go to a vegetarian restaurant not far away to eat, and I wouldn't come here.

Wanwanxiang is the best at cooking all kinds of meat, which is its own advantage, and there is no reason not to show it.

"It's over, you don't seem to be able to eat this ......" Jiang Zhilian held the menu and stuck out her tongue at Meng Qing.

Meng Qing was a little stunned, with an indescribable expression on his face, "It's really not good, you can eat the hot pot yourself!" I'll order two dishes with rice. I just ate half a plate of fried noodles and I wasn't very hungry. ”

"Do you have a vegetarian soup base here?" Jiang Zhilian thought about it and decided to ask the waiter first, maybe she could make a vegetarian soup base alone!

The waiter shook his head and respectfully explained, "Sorry, we only have these two soup bases on the menu. They are all stewed pork bones, the only difference is that one is fried with spicy spices, and the other is the original rich bone broth. After a while, there may be oxtail soup in the store. Vegetarian, not yet. ”

"So be it!" Jiang Zhilian gently put the menu on the table, "You go to the back kitchen first and ask, there is really no vegetarian soup base, I'll order again." ”

The waiter felt a little troublesome, but he didn't show it too much on his face, "Okay, you wait a minute." ”

After a while, the waiter walked back, "Our boss said that we can prepare a vegetarian soup base for you alone." ”

Jiang Zhilian squinted and smiled, "What did your boss say?" ”

"Yes." The waiter glanced at him and said, "I explained your situation, and the boss said that you can prepare a vegetarian soup base for the two of you alone." ”

Jiang Zhilian: "Your boss is so considerate, thank her for me!" ”

The waiter said, "This is what we should do." Mandarin duck pot, one side of the soup base, on the other side of what do you need? ”

Jiang Zhilian thought for a moment and replied: "The other side also uses a vegetarian soup base, but add a little spicy." The spiciness, as long as it is medium. ”

"Okay." The waiter wrote down the guest's request and asked, "Which set do you need for the side dishes?" ”

"Package Three, and Package Five." Jiang Zhilian had already taken a good look at the side dish just now, so she didn't think about it for too long, "However, just serve vegetarian dishes, and the meat in the set meal will be removed for me directly!" We pay for the package normally. ”

The waiter was stunned and replied "yes".

Jiang Zhilian looked at Meng Qing and asked, "Do you drink?" ”

"One beer per person!" Meng Qing wanted to take this opportunity to relax his nerves.

But considering Jiang Zhilian's amount of alcohol and wine, he didn't dare to let her drink too much.

"Okay." Jiang Zhilian grinned and said to the waiter, "Two bottles of beer, that's all." ”

The waiter repeated the message, confirmed that it was correct, and then went to the back kitchen.

Meng Qing was not very relieved, raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Zhilian with a serious face, and reminded solemnly: "You can only drink one bottle of beer!" There's still something to attend to tomorrow! ”

"Got it, got it!" Jiang Zhilian promised: "I know it in my heart." Guaranteed to drink only one bottle, absolutely not too much in one gulp. ”

Meng Qing was a little relieved.

While waiting for the dishes, he looked at the soup base at the table next door and thought of a question, "Actually, you should choose the signature soup base with a bowl of fragrant flavor." Isn't it just to taste the taste of their hot pot? ”

"Then I can come back to eat next time, anyway, I'm a guest when I come in, and they can't drive me away." Jiang Zhilian smiled lightly, "I'll bring a little quail and a full moon to eat once in a few days." In a few days, I will invite Hua Gou, Yao Xiaowang and Xiao Gao again. There is a chance, not bad this time. When the time comes, I will carry you behind your back and eat meat secretly. ”

"Look at what you're gluttony." Meng Qing smiled bitterly: "If you want to eat meat, you can eat it!" I've never asked you to be a vegetarian with me. Also, you'd better eat one egg every day to supplement nutrition. ”

Jiang Zhilian raised her eyebrows, "Got it!" Long-winded! ”

In the five set meals of side dishes, they are all meat-based, and vegetarian dishes, soy products, and staple foods are basically a foil, so they are all relatively common ingredients.

Jiang Zhilian's set menu includes frozen tofu, rice cakes, vermicelli, cabbage, potatoes, white radish, fungus, and sweet potatoes.

The meat items removed from the set menu include beef fillet, beef heart, fat sausage, lamb roll, sausage and smoked fish.

The dipping sauce is all in the middle of the table and can be prepared by yourself.

Soy sauce, chili paste, white vinegar, aged vinegar, fermented bean curd juice, leek flowers.

No tahini, no garlic juice, chopped green onions, and coriander.

These vegetarian restaurants are all provided directly, and Sister Xiang probably disdains to plagiarize this?

She glanced at the guests at the other table and saw a man munching on garlic with relish.

A bite of meat, a bite of garlic, and a sip of wine.

There was a look of satisfaction on his face.

It is estimated that there are many people who come here to eat meat, and they may be more inclined to eat garlic directly than to add garlic juice to the dipping sauce.

Jiang Zhilian nodded to herself, and immediately understood how Sister Xiang considered this detail.

Adapting measures to local conditions, rather than blindly plagiarizing, is quite thoughtful.

Not bad!

Whether you think right or not, at least a person with brains and ideas.

As for the tahini.

There are very few people who can grind high-quality sesame paste in Dawan County, and it is very difficult to find.

The sesame paste in the store has a relatively low concentration, thin soup and little water, and the taste is average, not fragrant enough, and not enough flavor.

Zhu Baomei has a friend, and everyone calls her the ninth sister-in-law.

The tahini she grinded out was not bad.

The vegetarian restaurant now uses sesame paste made by the ninth sister-in-law.

Jiang Zhilian felt that it was still not good enough, but she couldn't find a better one for a while, so she could only use it for the time being.

People in Dawan County are not very receptive to sesame paste.

Although sesame paste is prepared on the table, there are not many customers who come to eat hot pot and put sesame paste in the dipping sauce.

Sister Xiang did not prepare sesame paste for the guests, she must have taken into account the eating habits of the locals and gave up doing useless work.

Jiang Zhilian laughed while eating, Sister Xiang is really a strict pragmatist!

I really want to see her true face, I guess she is a woman with a strong aura.

In fact, neither of them should have deliberately avoided anyone.

But for months, it never seemed to have happened.

I don't know if it's because the fate is shallow, or because the fate is too deep.

"You say-" Jiang Zhilian leaned forward, leaned in front of Meng Qing's eyes, and asked in a low voice, "Do I want to go to the back kitchen now and say hello to Sister Xiang?" ”
