  Chapter 659 Veteran eater

The small city of Bei'an gave Yu Han a very good first impression.

When he first arrived here, he went to the very famous Sifeng Mountain at the first stop, and went sightseeing.

I ate a piece of bread in the scenic spot during the day, and at night I was hungry and took a taxi to the old-fashioned barbecue restaurant I had heard about for a long time, and had a delicious barbecue.

The next day, I went shopping in the city center and ate the sheep and scorpion pot of the Four Seas Banquet at noon.

In the afternoon, I went to the river, took a ferry, and rode a camel on a small island in the river to visit the beautiful scenery.

In the evening, I took a taxi to the famous seafood restaurant, Maxima.

In recent years, Yu Han has often traveled around, and is very concerned about the customs and customs of various places.

This time I passed through the provincial capital, so when I searched for relevant travel information on the Internet, I accidentally saw some related introductions about the small town of Beian.

Among them, the ones that impressed him deeply were the Red House Barbecue, the Four Seas Feast with Lamb and Scorpion Pot, and the Maxima Seafood Restaurant.

It is said that Maxima Seafood Restaurant is a century-old restaurant.

The most memorable thing is that the dishes cooked in this restaurant are very authentic.

Didn’t start cheating, skimping on ingredients, and slacking off on service because of its great reputation and plentiful customer flow.

On the contrary, this restaurant has always been adhering to the consumption concept of authentic materials and honest consumption.

So both word of mouth and reputation are very good.

Related comments on the Internet are also very good, so Yu Han specially came to the store to check in this time.

When he really walked into the gate of the Maxima Hotel, Yu Han looked at the antique buildings around him and the waiters in neat clothes. Before he could eat, he felt a little appreciation in his heart.

This store looks like an old store, and the style looks very nostalgic, but if you look closely, all the facilities are clean and brand new.

Especially the ordering area, which is obviously newly built, and all kinds of fresh seafood are displayed in glass tanks.

The order staff walked up and down with a smile, helping to order.

The service is indeed very meticulous and considerate.

Only one thing, there are too many people dining in the store, and you have to queue up to order.

While Yu Han was queuing, two old men came from behind. They looked about seventy or eighty years old, with gray hair, but they were tall and straight, dressed comfortably and cleanly, and walked very steadily.

These two people looked extraordinary at first glance, Yu Han glanced back and sighed secretly.

Look at them, they are so old, and they are still in such good shape.

Look at yourself again.

Yu Han looked down at his beer belly, thinking of his cheeky face, really.

Alas. Don't mention it.

The ordering area in front was overcrowded, Yu Han stretched his head to look at the full range of seafood, thinking about what to eat.

There are many introductions about the dishes of this restaurant on the Internet, and there are many reviews, which are very comprehensive.

But it is also because this is a century-old shop, so there are many special dishes.

It is impossible to try all the specialties in one meal.

So you can only choose according to your own taste.

Yu Hanzheng was looking at the fresh seafood.

The two old men behind them chatted while waiting for boredom.

The taller old man had a loud voice and spoke clearly: "Speaking of which, I haven't eaten here for two years."

Another old man said with a smile: "I am not the same. After being hospitalized last year, let alone my family members, I thought I would not be able to get out. Unexpectedly, after some treatment by Dr. Xiao, not only was he discharged smoothly, but his bones were also obvious. It's tougher."

The tall old man scolded: "Nonsense! Isn't it just a minor illness? It's a common geriatric disease. I haven't heard of anyone suffering from this disease and causing any serious problems!"

The short old man smiled: "Seventy-three, eighty-four, the King of Hades doesn't invite me to go! Didn't I just happen to be 84 last year? I caught up with Kan'er. In my heart, I'm a little uncertain. But it's good luck, hang up I got Dr. Xiao's number, and after more than half a year of recuperation under his hands, some old problems that have accumulated over the years have been cured a lot."

The tall old man asked very interestedly: "You mean the old Chinese doctor Xiao Jiping from the Third Provincial Hospital?"

The short old man nodded: "Yes, that's him!"

The tall old man clapped his hands: "Hey, if you want to seek medical treatment from him, tell me! He is the younger brother of my second grandfather's family. Although he doesn't move around very much, my mother's generation is still with their family. Get in touch. I had an upset stomach before, and he was the one who contacted me to help prescribe the prescription."

The short old man didn't expect such a thing, and he was surprised: "Really? Oh, I don't know! Just to hang up his number, my son left a lot of connections. There are many wards in the Third Provincial Hospital. It's hard to arrange, when I was being treated, if I didn't have this relationship, I wouldn't even have a place to be hospitalized."

The two sighed, and the short old man said casually: "When I was in the hospital, I just heard Dr. Xiao talking about the dishes of Chollima, which made me addicted. Meal."

The tall old man became interested when he heard it: "Really? You mean that Xiao Jiping also ate the food of Maxima?"

The short old man said: "I have eaten it, how about I, I will place an order for the cook in their shop in a while. Doctor Xiao said it himself, the cook's skills are simply amazing!"

"Think about it, with Dr. Xiao's status, what good food can't be eaten? Let him praise you so much, it shows that this chef Fu is really good at cooking!"

The two old men chatted enthusiastically behind.

Yu Han had nothing to do at leisure, and listened to the excitement with his ears up.

When I heard that there was a chef named Fu in Qianlima, who was very good at cooking, so I also fell in love.

It didn't take long, and soon the orderer who delivered the order came back to receive Yu Han.

And just as he walked to the ordering area, the two old men were also brought over by the orderer.

Yu Han followed behind the orderer, looking at the various seafood in front of him.

The orderer handed over a menu very enthusiastically: "Sir, you can order according to the menu. Our store has a wide range of seafood, with rich tastes and cooking methods. What do you want to eat, or special dishes? preferences, I can also make some corresponding recommendations for you."

Yu Han nodded, and said straight to the point: "I'm from out of town, and I just want to try your restaurant's special dishes. I checked it on the Internet before, and I generally understand it."

It turned out that I came here for the name.

The orderer knew it well, so when introducing the recipes, he recommended a few popular dishes in the store recently.

Yu Han looked through a few special dishes in the store, and looking at the pictures, it was almost the same as the evaluation on the Internet.

He picked out the dishes he was interested in, and placed an order while asking.

"This spicy crayfish is said to be your store's secret dish?"

The orderer hurriedly introduced: "Yes, this dish is very popular in our restaurant. It tastes delicious and spicy, and you can't eat it outside."

Yu Han nodded with great interest: "Okay, let's have this one first."

He flipped through the menu again: "Isn't your restaurant mainly focusing on seafood dishes? How come this improved version of the big harvest stew has become a special dish?"

The order staff is already articulate, and they repeatedly recommend dishes to customers every day.

When it comes to the dishes in the store, apart from the chef, they are the ones who know best.

Hearing the inquiry, the orderer talked eloquently: "This Dafengshou braised dish is an innovative and improved dish made by the chef of our restaurant. It is completely different from the original dish in terms of cooking method and taste. Now our The best-selling dishes in the store are very popular with customers.”

Yu Han glanced at the plate arrangement in the picture, and found that it was indeed very creative, so he reached out and clicked: "Add this one."

"Well, by the way, I heard that your restaurant's barbecue is also very good? Let's have another grilled eel."

"I eat alone, three dishes are enough, as for the staple food, seafood porridge, I heard it is also a specialty of your restaurant?"

The orderer responded repeatedly, and when he was about to place an order, two old men, one tall and one short, were brought over by the orderer to choose seafood.

"This side is full of seafood, you can choose according to your preferences, each type of seafood has a variety of cooking methods and tastes"

The order staff also enthusiastically introduced and helped customers place orders.

The short old man first looked at all kinds of fresh seafood, then pointed at the eel, and interrupted the orderer: "Can you make eel stewed in wine?"

The orderer was taken aback for a moment, and then nodded quickly: "Yes! Stewed river eel in wine is an old dish of our restaurant, and the taste is very authentic."

The short old man said again: "Okay, let's have a dish of river eel stewed in wine, and another dish of fresh mushroom fish balls, yes, and field fish, and another dish of field fish with distilled grains!"

Yu Han was taken aback when he heard that.

The name of this dish does not seem to be a special dish recommended on the Internet.

But it sounds pretty good.

Thinking in his heart, Yu Han gestured to the orderer who was in charge of him, and he listened carefully to the order of the two old men.

The orderer first placed the order one by one, and then said with a smile: "The old man is an expert! All the dishes we ordered are classic specialties of our restaurant."

The short old man said: "Well, as I get older, I want to eat some nostalgic dishes. These were popular when we were young, and they are very delicious!"

"This fish has to be stewed with wine to taste!"

As he spoke, he suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, Dr. Xiao also introduced me a nutritious seafood dish."

He turned his head and asked the waiter: "Can you make rich eel gelatin?"

The waiter was taken aback.

Fa Cai Braised Eel Glue?

Why haven’t you heard of this dish?

The orderer didn't answer right away, but quickly looked at the ordering utensils.

Yu Han turned his head with great interest, and asked the orderer serving him in a low voice: "Why, doesn't your restaurant have this dish?"

The orderer was slightly taken aback. She is new this year, and she really doesn't know much about these dishes that are not often ordered by customers.

"I, let me check and see, this dish should not be a popular dish in the store in the near future."

Yu Han raised his eyebrows and turned to look at the two old men beside him.

At this time, the tall old man standing next to him suddenly laughed and said, "You still know how to order food! All you order are their old dishes."

The short old man smiled and said: "I just remembered this suddenly. In fact, I haven't ordered these dishes a few years ago. I came here with my family, and the dishes I eat are all popular dishes now."

The tall old man also felt a little emotional: "Actually, if you want to be authentic and taste good, when will you still have to eat old-fashioned dishes. Like those improved, innovative dishes, in fact, they just change the gourd without changing the medicine, and the old-fashioned dishes The classic flavors are ruined!"

The short old man nodded again and again: "That's right! I just remembered it today, so let's reminisce about it."

The tall old man hurriedly said: "Then, the staple food is millet river crab."

As he said, he turned his head to look at the orderer: "Can you still make this dish of millet river crab?"

The orderer was busy looking up the dishes on the orderer. Hearing this, he raised his head: "Huh? Oh, me, I'll check it out right away."

The tall old man took a look and said, "Don't worry, if the chef in your restaurant hasn't changed in recent years, then he should be able to cook this dish."

The orderer just happened to find the dish of rich eel gelatin. While heaving a sigh of relief, he hurriedly asked: "I have found it. You said just now that you want to order a dish of river crab with millet, right?"

She quickly searched again.

This time it was much smoother. This millet river crab almost just typed the word millet, and it popped out directly.

The orderer was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "I found it! Do you need to order other dishes?"

It stands to reason that two people order four dishes and one staple food, which is enough to eat.

Sure enough, the two old men nodded, saying that a few things would be enough.

The orderer placed the order, and the two old men were still laughing and talking.

The short old man looked at his old friend, smiled and said: "Among us old guys, in fact, you are the best at eating! If you don't order this millet river crab, I can't even remember it."

The tall old man waved his hand: "Oh, it's better to be young. At that time, you can eat whatever you want, and there are so many delicacies from all over the country. You can taste it wherever you go. It's not good now, as you get older. Well, the family is very strict, they don’t allow this to be eaten, and they don’t allow that to be eaten.”

The short old man suddenly felt sympathetic, and then sighed: "Who said it wasn't! It's just the two of us today, let's have a good meal."

Yu Han turned his head and asked the orderer beside him in a low voice: "The dishes they ordered don't seem to be in the menu?"

Speaking of their own menu, the orderer hurriedly explained: "It's true that there is no menu, but our restaurant's menu has just been updated this year. Some popular innovative dishes have been added, and some old-fashioned dishes have been removed."

Then no wonder.

But I can order dishes that are not on the menu.

These two old men are not simple!

As for the identity, let's not worry about it.

But I am very familiar with the special dishes of Maxima.

It should be an old diner in the store.

Yu Han came to the store this time because he wanted to try the special secret dishes.

The few dishes he ordered are almost all improved and innovative dishes.

But what the two old men said just now, this dish is the classic original taste. The so-called improvement is nothing more than a new way based on the classic taste.

In the end, everything changes and remains the same.
