Chapter 80 Braised Fish Fillet with Scallion and Sea Cucumber
"The braised fish fillet in fermented rice wine is crystal clear, trembling without breaking when picked up, and melts in your mouth, fresh and delicious~~~
The scallion-fried sea cucumber is juicy but not juicey, with a reddish-red color. The sea cucumber is smooth and tender, and the scallion fragrance is refreshing and pleasant~~~
Braised mullet eggs, slightly spicy with sourness, slightly sour with spicyness, just the right amount of sour and spicy. One bite is mild, two bites are medium, and then you can taste the real flavor after three bites~~~"
…
The staff brought out the dishes one by one. In addition to announcing the names of the dishes, they also enthusiastically introduced the characteristics of each dish.
Lin Sanqi, Pan Ye, Lin Jiageng, Lin Zhenzhen, Pan Cen, and Pan Ren all drooled at the delicious food in front of them.
Lin Sanqi was screaming in his heart: Stop it, stop it, I’m hungry, I can’t help but pick up my chopsticks.
Pan Ye thought to himself: It has been many years since I last tasted this kind of delicacy. Thinking of the hardships my family has endured over the years, tears welled up in my eyes.
The other children were all stunned, but they were all well-mannered and no one picked up their chopsticks.
"Customers, let me tell you, this braised mullet roe is our great MZX's favorite dish. Finally, here are two bottles of Moutai and soda. Dear customers, please enjoy."
Lin Sanqi thought that the chattering had finally ended, so he picked up his chopsticks and said to the others:
"Pan Ye, Pan Cen, Pan Ren, come on, pick up your chopsticks. Eat the food while it's hot. It's boring if it gets cold. There's no outsiders here, so feel free to eat as much as you want. If it's not enough, I'll order more..."
When Pan Ye heard this, his face turned red again, thinking to himself, everyone is an outsider to you.
Pan Renze had completely surrendered and asked flatteringly, "Brother-in-law, I'll eat it then!"
Lin Sanqi laughed heartily. "Eat, eat, eat! I'll satisfy you with whatever you want to eat today!"
Pan Ye's face turned red again at this time. He pretended to be angry and glared at his brother: "Shut up, if you don't know how to speak, then don't speak!"
Lin Sanqi was unconvinced: "Pan Renduo is good at talking, and I love listening to Pan Ren talk the most. Come on, Comrade Pan Ye, try their stir-fried sea cucumber with scallions."
Fengzeyuan uses a whole sea cucumber, which is very tempting when poured with soup.
With the host taking the lead, everyone couldn't hold back any longer and started to use their chopsticks.
After Lin Sanqi picked up some dishes for his nephews and nieces, he also began to taste them. The first dish he tried was sea cucumber, and they all said nothing after tasting it.
It's so delicious~~~
The sweet and sour taste of Shandong cuisine is more suitable for people in Dongguang Province. If you were to eat Sichuan cuisine now, it would be so spicy that it would be fatal.
Lin Sanqi hummed happily while eating:
"Hmm, this lotus-cooked chicken slices are so tender, let's try it. Wow, this pickled fish slices are so flavorful, so delicious. This crystal pork elbow is the first time I've seen it made with a whole elbow and then cut into slices. Let's try it, let's try it~~~"
After a while, the side dishes on the plate in front of Pan Ye were as big as a mountain.
Pan Ye looked at Lin Sanqi deeply and felt a little touched.
Lin Sanqi's action was just like inviting a girl on a date to a top French restaurant in later generations, and the red wine served was Romanee Conti.
Whether girls admit it or not, money can often please girls, because girls think that this means they are valued.
Otherwise, you can try the braised chicken rice...
The girl was such a smart person. How could she be so innocent that a gay man whom she was only half-acquainted with invited her and her family to such a high-end restaurant for dinner and ordered only meat dishes?
To put it bluntly, the gay man wants to pursue her.
In the 1950s, female comrades were very particular about their attitude. If they didn't like something, they would refuse. To be polite, they would say they had something to do at home and couldn't go.
Once a lesbian accepts an invitation to go out for dinner, it actually means that she has tacitly agreed to take the relationship to the next level.
Later, after spending more time in the 1950s, Lin Sanqi realized that there was basically no dating process in those days. Generally, a man and a woman would be introduced by someone, if they were attracted to each other, and would meet two or three times before getting married.
The betrothal gift cannot be less...
Theoretically, when Pan's father recovers from tuberculosis, as long as Lin Sanqi asks, she can marry Pan Ye, and there will be absolutely no family resistance.
Unfortunately, Lin Sanqi didn’t understand these things, and Pan Ye still had a year before graduation, so neither of them thought about getting married.
Halfway through the meal, Lin Sanqi's high emotional intelligence kicked in. Since he could let other female comrades eat meat, he certainly couldn't forget that he had two parents.
Otherwise, you would be an unfilial son.
Thinking of this, Lin Sanqi waved his hand again, and the staff hurried over:
"Comrade, what else do you need?"
Lin Sanqi pointed at the two dishes on the table and said, "Cook two more of each of this stir-fried sea cucumber with scallions and this crystal pork elbow. I want them to take away."
The staff kindly reminded:
"Comrade, we do offer takeout service, but the stir-fried sea cucumber with scallions is a hot dish. If you take it home and let it cool down, it will become fishy and the flavor will be off. This crystal pork elbow is a cold dish. If you take it home in such hot weather, the aspic will have melted and the taste will be completely different."
Lin Sanqi knew that the other party was right, but he couldn't help but feel that he had a golden finger:
"Thank you for your reminder, but someone will come to pick it up soon. Just pack it up and have someone take it home quickly."
The staff had already fulfilled their responsibility of reminding the customer, so they took the money and ticket and placed the order.
Pan Ye felt a little strange, but did not ask. She was just a freeloader and not a housekeeper, so she had no right and no reason to interfere.
The other kids ate meat with big mouthfuls, not caring at all about what others were doing.
After a while, two servings of sea cucumber and pork elbow were served, and Lin Sanqi walked out of the restaurant with the two takeouts.
In fact, there was no one to receive him. Lin Sanqi just turned a corner after leaving the hotel, found the door of a large courtyard and pushed it open. When he came out, his hands were empty.
The "anywhere door" is set to maintain constant temperature and humidity to preserve freshness, otherwise the hundreds of thousands of dollars of food purchased by Lin Sanqi in 2013 would have all gone bad.
When Lin Sanqi returned to the dining table, he found that everyone had almost finished eating and the plates were basically empty.
But the attentive Pan Ye still helped Lin Sanqi pick up a lot of meat and vegetables, and the rice bowl containing the vegetables was piled high, which made Lin Sanqi feel warm and valued.
After waiting for another half an hour, everyone was already slumped in their chairs, touching their stomachs and burping.
The 12-year-old Pan Ren glanced at Lin Sanqi and said sincerely:
"Brother-in-law, if you take me out to eat often, I'll leave my elder sister to you. I'm completely relieved. If my elder sister bullies you in the future, I, your younger brother-in-law, will stand up for you!"
Pan Cen also nodded repeatedly: "I agree to this marriage!"
Lin Jiageng and Lin Zhenzhen also cheered on the side: "We agree too~~~"
Pan Ye's face flushed red, while Lin Sanqi burst into laughter:
"Now that we're full, let's go to Tong Ren Tang!"
