"Boss, could you describe this dish?"
Francis asked weakly.
The portly boss said, “Mr. Weiguo must recognize this dish. It’s called Sweet and Sour Carp. I always have wild carp in my kitchen tank. I kill the carp, cut open its belly and take out its internal organs... and finally pour my special vinaigrette on it.”
The boss's words sounded tempting, but no one touched their chopsticks.
There are reasons why few people in the US eat freshwater fish. The US diet mainly consists of saltwater fish, and they believe that carp living in polluted freshwater are very harmful to health. Also, the US diet mainly uses knives and forks, and carp has many bones. While chopsticks can be used to pick out the bones, it is very troublesome to do so with a knife and fork.
As for spitting out thorns, they felt that this behavior was extremely impolite and ungentlemanly.
certainly...
These reasons are not the main ones. The main reason is that they don't have the cooking skills or know how to make it.
Wei Guo didn't care about any of that. He picked up a large piece of tender meat from the fish's belly, put it in his mouth, chewed it, then pulled out a napkin, spat the fish bones onto it, and gave the fat boss a thumbs up, "This dish is authentic!"
Waiting for Wei Guo's affirmation is enough!
As for the others, it can only be said that they don't understand food. The boss excitedly returned to the kitchen to prepare the last dish for Wei Guo and the others, which was also a famous dish that almost made him quit the culinary world: Nine-Turned Intestines!
This dish requires a great deal of skill...
When the braised pork intestines were served, Francis and Cummings were already half-drunk, and the baijiu (Chinese liquor) had also taken its toll.
Howard's tongue was practically agape as he kept asking Wei Guo for tips on inside offense. Wei Guo gestured and taught Howard a few moves, but whether Howard could learn them depended on his talent.
"Here comes the last dish!"
The portly boss excitedly brought over the braised pork intestines, saying, "Please, everyone, have a taste!"
The dish was extremely bright in color, and the owner kept the ingredients a secret from the group, arousing everyone's curiosity. Since Americans don't eat offal, for a moment, apart from Gentry and Cummings, no one else could tell that the dish was made with pig intestines.
Wei Guo really likes to eat large intestines...
This dish made Wei Guo hesitate. He had a vague feeling that there was something fishy about the dish. It was unlikely to be poisoned, but Wei Guo still felt uneasy. So he asked, "Boss, is this your specialty?"
"Um!"
The chubby boss nodded vigorously, "I not only restored the original shape of the ingredients, but also preserved some of their original flavor."
"Holy shit..."
Wei Guo immediately put down his chopsticks and said, "You guys eat first!"
Francis and the others picked up their chopsticks, while Howard picked up his knife and fork, all reaching for the braised pork intestines on the plate.
......
The next morning, the Suns players had a buffet breakfast at the hotel.
The hotel breakfast was very plentiful...
However, there were three people who had no appetite at all. They even gagged involuntarily when they saw food. These three were Nash, Cummings, and Gentry.
Last night, after the last dish of braised pork intestines was served, everyone except Wei Guo tried a piece. The owner was a very honest person... the kind who keeps his word. He really preserved some of the original flavor of the intestines. The flavor was extremely strong, and the group of people were really unable to enjoy it. Even Jin Terry, who had eaten pork intestines many times, almost vomited on the spot.
What a nice late-night snack...
Because the dish of Nine-Turned Intestines became a mess, the meal ended somewhat unhappily.
After breakfast, we'll fly to Indiana.
The Suns are playing five consecutive road games, and the game against the Pacers will be the third game of their road trip. The Pacers are playing a back-to-back game, with the Pistons as their opponent tonight, and the Suns as their opponent tomorrow night.
Coincidentally, the Suns flew to Indiana, while the Pacers played in Detroit.
......
The Suns arrived in Indiana in the afternoon, while the Pacers were playing an away game.
If the Pacers had a home game tonight, Wei Guo might have gone to the arena to watch the game and kill time, but now he can only play cards with Gentry and two others at the hotel.
That night!
While Wei Guo, Nash, Gentry, and Cummings were playing cards at the hotel, the infamous Malice at the Palace incident occurred during the Pacers vs. Pistons game.
The incident began when Artest and Ben Wallace got into a fight during the game. Artest was lying on the scorer's table when a fan in the stands threw beer at him. The hot-tempered Artest couldn't stand it and rushed into the stands to beat up the fan, even hitting the wrong person... Teammates Jackson and O'Neal also rushed over to help Artest beat up the fan.
The scene was in complete chaos...
This incident has had an extremely negative impact, and the league will definitely impose severe penalties on the players involved in the brawl.
Wei Guo witnessed the entire brawl during the live broadcast of the match and exclaimed in astonishment, "Artest's temper is still as volatile as ever."
"They only remember the good times, not the bad ones."
Gentry threw his deck of cards on the table. "The suspension is a given. Tomorrow night's game will be easy."
Regardless of the league's punishment, Artest, Jackson, and O'Neal will definitely be suspended, and not just for one or two games. Fans are the players' bread and butter, and it's outrageous for them to hit their parents!
key...
Wei Guo saw it clearly: Artest wasn't hitting the fan who threw beer at him; the guy who got hit was a complete traitor.
Last season in the playoffs, a brawl broke out between the Nets and the Pacers. Back then, Wei Guo single-handedly overpowered Artest and two others, sending all three to the hospital... It's the same three again, but this time they picked an easy target: the fans.
This incident has made fans miss Wei Guo.
Gentry took the opportunity to cheat by throwing away his cards and refusing to play, wanting to reminisce about the battle between the Guardians and the Pacers' three heroes.
......
The internet was filled with criticism, with some saying the fan who threw the beer was deliberately trying to cause trouble.
More people are criticizing the actions of Artest and his two companions. Fans are much calmer than sasaeng fans, who will unconditionally stand by their idols even if they break the law and commit crimes.
Fans don't do that...
Besides, Artest isn't a superstar like Wei Guo or Garnett.
Losing their temper and violently assaulting fans, including an innocent one, is something even Pacers fans won't excuse. They'll easily bring up the fight between Artest, his two teammates, and Wei Guo last season.
It was dug up by fans for no reason, and they were all cheering!
Among all athletes worldwide, regardless of sport, Wei Guo has the most fans. This event, in which Wei Guo was not involved, has gained him a huge number of fans.
