Chapter 291 Dishes not on the menu

"Please come with me, the fish and shrimp in the hotel are kept in the back yard."

Hearing that the two wanted to confirm whether they were really wild river shrimps, He Ying took them to the backyard. In the large fish tank specially built, there were various fish, eels, turtles, and the river shrimps that they had just gotten yesterday.

After the fish tank was finished, the two of them realized that they should have made the fish tank directly in the hall.

In this way, people who come to eat can see the various aquatic products raised in the fish tank at first sight. Even if they didn’t plan to order fish and eat them when they saw the lively fish and shrimps in the fish tank.

There is another very important reason. Just like these two people nowadays, they always don’t believe it without seeing live fish and shrimps with their own eyes. They think that the restaurant will use inferior products as good ones and use some fish and shrimps grown up with feed bought from the market to pretend to be wild fish and shrimps.

It is inevitable to eat outside. Sometimes you can see it clearly, but when you go to the kitchen, it is possible that the chef will change the package for you.

Anyway, many times, after the ingredients are fried, you can't tell whether you just like the one you just like?

The fish tank is covered with a layer of thin gauze nets. The fish raised in the fish tank jump from time to time and make the gauze nets high.

They are usually kept in reservoirs and fish ponds, and there is such a big place for them to move. They are locked in a small fish tank all of a sudden. The fish that are used to the big fish ponds always want to jump outside.

The day I just put it in, I jumped out several times and made the backyard floor wet.

Seeing this situation, Sanda went to the market to buy a gauze net and covered the entire fish tank.

However, this makes it a bit inconvenient to catch fish and shrimps from the fish tank. In the past few days, he called the master who helped make the fish tank and asked him to help make a set of lids for the fish tank. It would be almost done in a few days, and then there would be no need to cover it with a gauze net.

"Two bosses, the fish and shrimp in our store are kept in this fish tank. This is the braised eel you ordered. One is about half a pound, and there are several large ones, one with more than one pound."

He Ying brought the two of them to the front of the fish tank and said to them: "All the fish raised in the fish tank are taken out of the reservoir. From childhood to adulthood, they have never been fed a piece of feed, and the taste is not comparable to those feed fish. Anyone who has come to our restaurant to eat knows that even if our fish are compared with wild river fish, they are not worse than river fish."

The one named Lao Zhang among the two was the one who came to the restaurant last time for a meal. The last time I ate steamed bream. It was because the fish in the restaurant tasted very good. After eating it once, I always felt that the taste was a little worse when eating other fish these days.

I also knew that the hotel officially opened today, and I was going to invite a few customers and friends to have dinner at noon today. I immediately thought of Longshan Local Restaurant, and called in the morning and booked a private room.

"Lao Cao, the fish taste in this restaurant is indeed good, no worse than the fish we caught in the river last time. The chef's skills are also good, you will know after you have eaten it." Lao Zhang stood next to the fish tank and said to Lao Cao.

"This restaurant has a lot of good things, and there is such a big turtle. Why are the good things in your hotel hidden and not sold? Why is there no dish like a turtle on the menu?"

The one who came to see the river shrimp, but the river shrimp didn't look at it. Lao Zhang first saw the big turtles raised in the fish tank.

He Ying explained to the two: "These turtles are wild like river shrimps. Because whether these things are available depends on luck or not, they may not be available in a few days, so they are not placed on the menu. The dishes on the menu are the main dishes in the restaurant and are available at any time."

Originally, Wu Fei wanted to use the turtle as a restaurant's signature, but everyone was worried that the turtle was not enough. If there was no turtle at that time, customers would often explain it to them when ordering.

When you meet some customers who are hard to talk to, you will inevitably have conflicts. Later, you simply removed all the dishes that could not be provided for a long time. The dishes such as fir tree mushrooms, wild boar meat, and turtles were not on the menu.

If there are those dishes in the restaurant, I will introduce them to the guests separately, but sometimes when I get busy, I will inevitably forget some things.

In addition, the hotel has just opened today, so there are inevitably more things that cannot be done. I have invited people to try the dishes in the hotel several times before, that is, when Uncle Kang brought the young leaders in the county to have dinner, he served a turtle of about two pounds, and he has never shown up at other times.

Today, when He Ying was introducing river shrimp, he was interrupted by Lao Cao. Several people came to the backyard of the hotel directly, so naturally there was no introduction to the turtle behind.

"This is the wild river shrimp we finally got this time. The two bosses will take a look. They are definitely real wild river shrimps. The price of river shrimps is 368 yuan per serving, and the weight of each serving is one pound."

River shrimps are slightly smaller than farmed shrimps, but only about twenty ones per catty, and one catty can be placed in a plate.

Lao Cao didn't say anything, and directly reached into the fish tank and grabbed the river shrimps.

He took the shrimp in his hand and looked at it, and said to Lao Zhang: "This little girl didn't tell any lies. It's really a wild river shrimp. It's strange. Where can I get so many wild river shrimps now? Even ten years ago, such a large river shrimp were not common, let alone now."

He Ying stood aside and said nothing. She didn't know about this question, but she didn't know about it, even if she knew it, she couldn't.

Lao Zhang said to He Ying: "Don't mind, little sister, Lao Cao is an occupational disease. Lao Cao has raised shrimps for many years before, but although he has no shrimps now, he can't help but want to see them when he hears there are wild river shrimps. I'll give us a portion of river shrimps later."

"Just boil the river shrimp in water." Lao Cao continued behind.

After thinking about it, Lao Zhang said again: "Put another turtle to us."

Hearing the two of them ordered another turtle, He Ying said to them: "How do you want to eat turtles? If you braised, you can put them on it later. If you stew it, it may be too late at noon. The turtle is calculated based on the weight. A turtle that costs more than two pounds is 800 yuan per pound, and a pound of less than two pounds is 600 yuan per pound. Do you think which one do you want?"

"If you like, you can take it out and weigh it now and kill it immediately."

Wu Fei and Sanda and others discussed that after weighing the weight, they would immediately kill them in front of the guests. It was not a cheap thing. If someone asked any questions, it would be a troublesome thing.
