After waiting in line for another ten minutes, I finally got into the store.
The waiter was very enthusiastic. He took them to an empty seat on the second floor and then brought the menu to Chen Wang.
"Xiaoyu, wife, come and have a look. Just tell me what you want to eat."
Chen Wang pushed the menu in front of his wife.
The daughter-in-law sat in the middle with the menu in front of her so all three of them could see it.
The menu is roughly divided into meat dishes, chicken, fish, shrimp and seafood, vegetarian dishes, soups and staple foods.
The signature roast duck is written on the top, a whole duck is 8 yuan, and half a duck is 4 yuan.
"We must order the roast duck. Want one?"
Chen Wang made a suggestion.
Lin Xiuqin waved her hand and pointed to the half column at the top.
"Brother, I think half a piece is enough. We can't finish it!"
The little girl agreed.
"It's a rare opportunity to come here, so I'll just order one. I think I can still eat a lot. If I can't finish it, I'll just pack it up and take it home."
After hearing what he said, Lin Xiuqin and the little girl didn't say anything else.
"Have a roast duck!"
Chen Wang said to the waiter beside him.
The waiter nodded and reminded, "Can we use the duck skeleton to make soup?"
"Can."
"The duck heart can be made into Kung Pao Duck Heart, and the duck kidneys, duck liver and duck legs can be made into a fried duck platter."
“Are these free or?”
"There is a fee for this, and the same applies to duck bone soup, 50 cents for processing."
The waitress replied with a smile.
"Okay, let's do as you say!"
Chen Wang nodded and agreed.
The waitress quickly wrote it down and kindly reminded, "In that case, I think it would be enough for you to order two more dishes, otherwise it would be a waste if there were too many."
"Okay, thank you, wife. Let's see what other dishes you want to eat and order one each!"
"Brother, I want to eat this!"
The little girl pointed at a dish on the menu.
"Okay, how about a crab?"
"OK."
"How about you, wife?"
Chen Wang looked at Lin Xiuqin again and asked.
Lin Xiuqin pointed to a vegetarian dish.
"Then give me another plate of mushroom and bamboo shoot slices."
"Okay, do you need lotus leaf cake?"
"Sure, have one!"
"Well, the green onions, cucumber strips, and sauces are 20 cents each, calculated based on the number of people."
"Can."
"Then please wait a moment, the food will be here soon."
The waiter said this and left in a hurry.
"Brother, what is a crab? A little crab?"
The little girl asked curiously.
"No, it's made of eggs."
Chen Wang explained humorously.
"Eggs? Why are they called crabs?"
“Because it’s made to imitate the taste of crab meat.”
"oh!"
The little guy had an expression that looked as if he understood but not quite.
"Okay, shall we have cake first or what?"
Chen Wang asked with a chuckle.
"No, no, brother, take the cake back and eat it later. We ordered too many dishes. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat after I eat the cake."
The little girl said hurriedly.
Lin Xiuqin also nodded in agreement.
"Okay, I'll listen to you and take it back to the hotel to eat."
"Um!"
Drinking the free tea and looking around, Chen Wang couldn't help but feel emotional at the packed scene.
By the way, this was also his first time eating at Quanjude.
Before I traveled through time, I had been to Beijing twice and eaten Peking duck, but at that time I followed other people's recommendations and ate a Peking duck brand that the locals preferred.
At that time, Quanjude's brand image was already very bad and its reputation plummeted. Even tourists from other places who wanted to try Peking duck would most likely not choose this restaurant.
After a while, the waiter came over with the roasted duck.
"Sir, this is your roast duck. Please take a look and see if there is anything wrong with it. We will take it to the chef to prepare it."
The duck is roasted to a golden and shiny color, exuding an enticing aroma mixed with a light fruity fragrance.
“Gurgle…”
The little girl swallowed hard and stared at the roast duck.
"Sure, no problem."
Chen Wang smiled and nodded.
"OK."
The waitress responded and left with the roast duck.
The little girl's eyes seemed to be glued to the roast duck, and her head moved slowly.
"Xiaoyu, your saliva is flowing out, wipe it quickly."
Chen Wang smiled and joked.
"ah?"
The little girl turned her head and wiped the corner of her mouth with her hand in panic. Then she realized that she had been fooled and glared at Chen Wang angrily.
"Ha ha……"
Chen Wang laughed happily.
Lin Xiuqin also covered her mouth and laughed secretly.
"Hate it, brother, please stop laughing."
The little girl yelled with a blushing face.
"Okay, okay, I won't laugh anymore."
"snort!"
Soon, the two dishes ordered by Lin Xiuqin and the little girl were served.
It looks quite appetizing.
After picking up the chopsticks and tasting it, the little girl praised it excitedly and liked the crab in particular.
Soon after, the sliced roast duck, lotus leaf pancakes, side dishes and sauces were served.
"Try the duck skin first. It's best to dip it in sugar."
Chen Wang picked up a piece of duck skin, dipped it in some sugar, and put it in his wife's bowl.
"Brother, I want one too. I want one too."
The little girl shouted anxiously.
"I know, stop yelling!"
Chen Wang also picked up a piece for her.
Before the duck is put into the oven, it is spread with maltose water. The roasted duck skin itself has a little sweetness. After being dipped in white sugar, the sweetness is stimulated to the extreme, and the taste is crispy, fresh and sweet.
