At 4:47 p.m., Takuya Aramura left the women in the hotel and went to a bank alone, where he exchanged 100,000 yen for 5,000 yuan.

The price and consumption of Shencheng are very high, and the 5,000 yen is not too practical, and it may be used up before he even leaves the city, but it is really troublesome to go out with a large stack of cash, so he only redeems these for the time being, and will continue to exchange them after he runs out.

After changing the money, the first thing Takuya Aramura did was to take the subway to a restaurant called "Manxiang Building".

He used to come to this restaurant when he was in college, and he was also a loyal eater, and the Babao duck here is the most delicious and his favorite dish.

The so-called "Manxiang Building", at first glance, the name seems to be a Chinese restaurant with high grade and consumption, but in fact, it is an old restaurant opened in a residential area, with simple and old decoration and relatively civilian fees, which is the first choice for many people to eat.

Picking off a piece of rust from the doorframe, Takuya Aramura stepped inside.

The place is still the same, a few ordinary wooden dining tables, walls that are a little yellowed due to age, a red menu hanging on the counter... It all felt so familiar to him, it was like going back to his time in college...

"Nong wants to cut some sa?"

A woman with short red hair who looked to be in her fifties walked over and asked in an authentic Shencheng dialect.

Takuya Aramura also remembers this woman, she is the proprietress of this restaurant, and she is usually responsible for the reception of diners, accounting and money calculations, while the boss who is not very talkative likes to stay in the back kitchen and prepare food for diners who come over.

He thought about it and decided to communicate with her in Mandarin, after all, this proprietress who doesn't speak Mandarin very fluently is a talker, once she speaks Shencheng dialect, it is very likely that she will be reduced to an emotionless answering tool, "That, does Babao Duck have it?" ”

"There's... Some. The proprietress nodded, subconsciously replied in Shencheng dialect, and immediately changed to Mandarin with a strong Shanghai accent after reacting.

"That, the Babao duck we have here is made in advance and steamed on top of the pot, which is a semi-finished product, because the Babao duck needs to be steamed for two or three hours to be completely flavored, so..."

"Yes, no problem." Takuya Aramura naturally has no opinion, he knows very well how to make Babao Duck, and if you want to eat this kind of dish, you don't know how long you have to wait.

It may be that there were too many non-local diners messing around before, and the proprietress was relieved when she heard the other party's reply, and then arranged for him to sit down, and said "What do you want to drink, go to the refrigerator to get it yourself, it's next to the front desk" and then ran to the back kitchen.

Takuya Aramura got up from his chair, came to the front desk, opened the refrigerator, and after glancing at the drinks inside, he picked up two cans of Pepsi without the slightest hesitation.

I haven't drunk it for a few days, so I'm a little presumptuous, drink an extra can, anyway, his body doesn't grow much flesh, and it's a good thing to grow meat, and now he's still too thin after all.

Looking at the bottle, there is a blue aluminum can, there are no other bells and whistles on it except for the four words "Pepsi Cola" and its logo, and there is no "Middle Two Disease", there is no Yuta Tomigashi and Kotori Yuroka, there is no image of him and Junri Uchida...

Pulling open the tab, he lifted the jar and poured it into his mouth, and Takuya Aramura looked around.

Since it was afternoon, there were not many people, at least not too crowded to sit down, and the people here showed more attention to the food in front of them, and there was no follow-up after a subtle glance at him.

Takuto Aramura is not a very famous person in Huaguo, he is currently only famous in the two-dimensional circle, the anime circle and the voice actor circle, and most of the people who come here to eat are nearby residents, in the eyes of these people, he is just a handsome guy with a very outstanding appearance, nothing special.

To be honest, he enjoys the feeling, and when he goes out to eat in Japan, he meets fans five times out of ten, and although they don't do anything out of the ordinary, let alone affect his life, it's a frustrating thing to be stared at all the time while eating.

About three or four minutes later, the proprietress came over with a large plate and placed it on the table in front of him.

The eight-treasure duck lies quietly on the plate, without too much flashy decoration, the duck's belly is cut open, and all kinds of accessories stuffed in it overflow, as well as the jujube red soup at the bottom, which really makes people appetize.

The proprietress gritted her teeth and quickly changed her words: "You eat happily, tell your aunt if you need anything." ”

"Okay, I'm sorry for you." Takuya Aramura nodded politely.

The proprietress still seemed a little uneasy, and she told him while stepping back: "If you need anything, you must tell Auntie, don't be embarrassed to speak." ”

After the proprietress left, Takuya Aramura sighed in his heart, "The proprietress is still so enthusiastic", so he picked up the knife on the plate and cut the duck into several pieces.

Pick up a piece of duck meat with a little glutinous rice and shiitake mushrooms and put it in your mouth.

A thick and layered salty umami explodes in the taste buds, making the originally dull mouth instantly filled with the aroma from the ingredients.

Not bad... The shop is still the same, and the taste hasn't changed at all.

The duck meat is also very smashy, and it only takes a little sip to break it down into filaments, and then turn it into minced meat...

The boss is worthy of being a duck for thirty or forty years... The taste of the ingredients is fully stimulated, and this dish must be better than many five-star restaurants in Laoshencheng...

Takuya Aramura suddenly remembered a passage he had read in a book whose name he couldn't remember.

"Real food should not be found in those restaurants with luxurious decorations and gorgeous dishes, but should be found in those alleys and roadside stalls.

At this moment, he believes that there is no more correct and real world than this sentence.

He remembered that the women who were still staying in the hotel had been watching a TV series called "The Lonely Gourmet" recently, and he felt that it was a pity that the male protagonist in it had not been able to eat this dish.

Babao duck can be said to be the representative of the entire Shencheng cuisine, if a person comes to Shencheng but does not eat this dish, then it is not really come to Shencheng, and a gourmand has not eaten this dish, it is not a real gourmet.

It's just that I pity the few women who can only stay in the room and eat the assembly-line catering provided by the hotel, because Fujiwara Xun missed such a meal for no reason with a small advice, which is really sad...

So, Takuya Aramura, who took the good man, decided to wait until he finished eating and then packed a few portions of Babao duck to take back to the hotel, so that those people and women could also taste it.

After all, it is better to be happy alone than to be happy with all, and there is always nothing wrong with "enjoying with the people".
