The arrangements were made, and Jiang Xiaobai and Mayor Zhang also got on the first minibus together.

Lin Daodao sat in the second row by the window, and the seat next to him was empty. As soon as Zhang Yide saw it, he knew that this seat was reserved for Jiang Xiaobai.

He walked straight to the back.

Jiang Xiaobai sat down beside Lin Daodao and continued to introduce the street of the night market.

The minibus started slowly, and soon arrived at the door of the spicy hot pot restaurant on Qingzhou Road.

When the group got out of the car, they saw that the hot pot restaurant was not far from the Qingjiang braised prawn restaurant, but at this time, the two restaurants formed a stark contrast.

There are two long queues at the braised prawn shop, and the door is full of people.

The spicy hot pot restaurant is deserted, except for a doorman standing at the door, there are many people outside the store, and there is not a single customer in the store.

"Doesn't that look like your style?"

Lin Daodao looked at this situation and said with a smile.

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Although it is open today, I am ready to invite the second uncle to eat hot pot, so there is no publicity." ”

Lin Daodao nodded, and the two walked towards the store together.

Not far from the door is a rectangular table, on which there is a uniform small basin, which contains millet spicy, coarse dried chili flakes, fine chili noodles, paste chili noodles, crushed peanuts, garlic paste, ginger, chopped green onions, minced coriander, bean curd, spicy sauce, sesame paste, beef sauce, etc. Under each small pot, the corresponding name is written on a small wooden sign.

Next to the small basin, there are several small clay pots with lids.

I can't see what is inside, but there is also a small wooden sign in front of the small clay pot, which reads: salt, monosodium glutamate, pepper, pepper powder, five-spice powder, thirteen spices, etc.

Next to these small clay pots, there is a row of specially made small pots, which look a bit like teapots with spouts, and the body of the pots is labeled with soy sauce, sesame oil, sesame oil, aged vinegar and so on.

In addition, there are two large clay pots containing large bone radish soup and mash.

Two flavors, to choose from.

Next to the large clay pot are four large basins with gridted lids, which contain four kinds of appetizers: fried peanuts, orchid beans, broad beans and diced cold sour radish.

Lin Daodao and the others were dumbfounded when they saw it, there were too many things on display!

Just looking at these spices can arouse your appetite, not to mention that there is a unique fragrance wafting through the entire hot pot restaurant.

Anyone who has eaten hot pot knows that it is the aroma of butter.

Jiang Xiaobai said with a smile: "This is the seasoning area, guests can freely mix and match seasonings according to their own tastes, light, spicy, slightly spicy, extra spicy, etc., you can add whatever you like to eat." ”

Zeng Liangyu said: "But many people have never eaten hot pot, and they don't know how to season it for the first time." ”

Jiang Xiaobai nodded: "This problem is easy to solve, we have made some warm little cards, on which there are four different flavors of flavor plate matching methods, if the guests don't know how to season, just take the small card and choose the seasoning according to it." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to an extra-large glass-door cupboard next to him, and said, "All the dishes and chopsticks are sterilized at high temperature after we wash them, and then put them inside, and the guests can take them when they are seasoning." ”

Zeng Liangyu praised: "The service of your hot pot restaurant is really meticulous. ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "The first thing to do catering is to pay attention to hygiene, followed by taste, in the selection of ingredients and the cleaning and disinfection of tableware, all the restaurants under Jiangjia Group are strict requirements. ”

Lin Daodao was very satisfied with this, and said: "Don't delay, everyone, choose a table to sit down, and then season yourself." ”

So everyone chose their own tables and sat down.

Lin Daodao, Zeng Liangyu, Gao Tianyue, Meng Wei, Qi Yeping, Zhang Yide, Jiang Xiaobai and Lin Jiayin made a table.

Lin Daodao looked at the table and found that it was a special table, which looked like a table of eight immortals as a whole, about the same size, but the height was lower, unlike the table of eight immortals, which was matched with a high bench, and some people sat down with their legs hanging in the air.

This table makes people feel comfortable when they sit down.

Jiang Xiaobai said: "This is a special hot pot table. ”

Zeng Liangyu asked, "What's the difference?" "When I looked at it, I realized that there was a drawer on my chest, and when I opened it, I saw a folded napkin inside.

He had eaten hot pot once at Jiang Xiaobai's house, and knew that eating hot pot often had a mouth full of oil, and napkins were a must. And put it in the drawer this way, it won't stain the napkin when you don't use it, and you can open the drawer and take one when you use it.

At this time, a female employee in overalls walked over, holding a thin wooden board with clips in her hand, almost the size of A4 paper, and said with a smile: "A few guests, which of you ordered." ”

Lin Daodao stretched out his hand and said, "I'll come!" ”

"Okay!" The waitress handed over the small board in her hand, along with a pen.

Lin Daodao took a look and saw that this menu was rather peculiar, and there were actually two sheets of paper for the same menu.

The waitress said: "The menu of our spicy hot pot restaurant comes with a copy function, and the guest will leave a menu on the table after you order, one is convenient for you to check whether the dishes you ordered are complete, and the other is that if you need to add any dishes, after reading the menu, you can ask the waiter to serve the dishes." ”

Lin Daodao nodded: "You have done a very thorough job. ”

As he spoke, he looked at the menu contents.

The first is the bottom of the pot, which has three categories: light, spicy, and mandarin duck pot. Among them, spicy is divided into slightly spicy, medium spicy and extra spicy.

The waitress said, "Guests, you can order the bottom of the pot first, and then you can order slowly." ”

Lin Daodao looked at the others and said, "Order a mandarin duck pot!" ”

Zeng Liangyu, Gao Tianyue and others present are all outsiders, and they are not very good at spicy food, plus Lin Jiayin is still pregnant, considering these, he ordered the mandarin duck pot.

Otherwise, he still wants to order a spicy pot bottom.

Eat hot pot, it's not spicy or happy.

The waitress saw him order the bottom of the pot and said, "Okay, guest, you can order slowly, you can order less first, and if you don't eat enough, you can increase it at any time, I'll go to the bottom of the pot first." ”

Lin Daodao nodded and continued to look at the menu.

Below the bottom of the pot is shabu meat, including fat beef rolls, snowflake beef rolls, tender beef, double pepper beef, spicy beef, bezoar throat, chicken rolls, hot pot fish fillets, lamb leg meat rolls, mutton rolls, pork belly slices, lean meat rolls, hairy tripe, crispy hairy tripe, melaleuca aleucea, duck intestines, boneless duck feet, fat intestines, kidney flowers, pork liver, etc.

There are many varieties, far more than Jiang Xiaobai makes at home.

And that's just the shabu-shabu.

"It's different when you open a hot pot restaurant!" Lin Daodao said with a smile, picked up the pen and began to check.

This kind of menu is also convenient to order, the name of the dish, the amount, and the unit price are clearly marked, and the front of the dish name is a small box, just tick it with a pen.
