401. Check in [Dayang original stew]

 After making his closing statement, Li Xiao opened the door and walked out of Shiying Wanziji, heading towards the next store.

He quickly searched for the next store he wanted to visit in his notebook.

I glanced at it and saw that the time was already around 3:40 in the afternoon, and it would be 4 o'clock in ten minutes.

He did not hesitate any longer, turned around and got off the subway, took Line 3 and set off towards his goal.

Soon, he came to this old store located at the subway exit of Line 3, which has been around for more than 40 years.

【Dayang original stew】

Although this 40-year-old shop has only one storefront, there was still a long queue when Li Xiao arrived.

Li Xiao held a camera and stood at the end of the queue.

Taking advantage of the gap in the queue, he explained the history of this stew shop to the audience.

"The beginning of a day begins in the morning, and the plan of a year begins in spring."

"Tourishment in spring is good for good health. When it comes to nourishment, how can we miss out on a delicious soup?"

"Although it's still the end of February, it's very close to spring, and it's the time to take supplements."

“Dayang Original Stew is a time-honored brand that specializes in stew. Although the store is small, it is extremely popular.”

"And the reason why they are so popular is also very simple. It can be summed up in one sentence: they use plenty of ingredients, the cooking is seasoned, and the price is affordable."

"Originally, the price of food here was only a few yuan a bowl."

"Even if prices have risen rapidly in recent years, they only increased by a few yuan here."

“Although the price has increased a lot, the materials used here are really good!”

"You can see the water vapor emanating from the store even from such a distance, so you can know how hot it is inside."

As he spoke, he raised the camera above his head, and soon the situation in the store appeared in the live broadcast room.

Six steaming silver steamers, which are taller than a person, are located outside the stew shop and at the cashier at the entrance.

From time to time, there are layers of steamers, and the clerk takes them down from the top.

The steamers that were originally at the bottom were placed on the stainless steel workbench.

Each steaming stew pot was wrapped in tissue paper, and the coconut king had been cut into pieces.

They all stay quietly in the steamer, waiting for the favor of the customers.

Their menu here is also very retro, consisting of pieces of iron nailed next to the door.

The iron pieces are very old, and some areas where the paint has peeled off have already rusted.

The rusty iron pieces, combined with the gold-painted signboard above the head, make the whole store look more contemporary.

But the boss, who is making a lot of money every day, doesn't seem to have any plans to replace them.

However, the price position below has been modified many times, and the primer has been completely scraped off, leaving only the silver metal surface.

The silver metal surface is very dull, apparently because it has lost its original metallic luster due to oxidation.

However, after more than 40 years of operation, only 2/3 of the metal signs that should have been densely packed in front of the door are now left.

Some places where metal signs were originally hung have long been empty, leaving only concrete walls covered with spider webs.

Li Xiao looked at the prices above. In this era of soaring prices, the highest price was only 19 yuan, and the lowest price was only 11 yuan. It was simply the conscience of the industry.

After all, some slightly more expensive items are stewed with original coconut juice.

You must know that the retail price of such a large coconut king is 8 to 10 yuan outside.

However, with the addition of soup and preparation, it only cost 19 yuan.

It can really be said to be very cheap.

Since the stew here has already been made and only needs to be simmered before serving, the queue is quite fast.

After waiting in line for about ten minutes, it was finally Li Xiao's turn and she looked at the dazzling menu on the wall.

Even though he had read the menu and various recommendations posted by netizens in advance, he still hesitated.

All his original plans were overturned by him. Originally, he only wanted to choose a few soups at random.

But now that he could smell the rich sweetness in the steam, he immediately overturned his plan.

[Coconut shredded black-bone chicken stew], [Coconut squab stew], [Coconut flying duck soup], [Coconut teal stew], [Coconut stewed fish soup], [Stewed fish head], [Stewed rabbit meat]

】,【Beef Stew Exhibition】········

Although only 2/3 of the dishes are left, the quantity is still very huge.

Feeling the clerk looking at him with increasingly unkind eyes, Li Xiao swallowed.

When he thought about it, if he hadn't been holding such a big camera.

I'm afraid the clerk has already chased him away, after all, there are quite a few people waiting behind him.

After hesitating for another half minute, Li Xiao finally said what he wanted:

[Coconut Bamboo Silky Chicken Stew Soup], [Coconut Squab Stew Soup], [Coconut Stewed Fish Soup], [Stewed Fish Head].

He originally wanted to go to the next destination after drinking the soup.

It's a pity that even Li Xiao, who has soup flowing all over his body.

When you come to a stew shop that specializes in soup, it would be a shame to your taste buds if you don't drink it to your heart's content.

When the clerk saw that Li Xiao was finally willing to order, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although as a time-honored brand that has been open for decades, they are not afraid to worry about not doing well.

I just worry that I will be smeared by those anchors with mobile phones or cameras.

Although what these anchors do will not have much impact on their business, it will make them feel disgusting.

Li Xiao neatly scanned the QR code to pay, took the receipt and found an empty seat on the street outside the door.

As a second-tier city, Yangcheng’s streets and alleys are very lively and prosperous.

But due to the changes of the times, this originally densely populated commercial area has become dilapidated.

Some strict regulations appear to be much more casual here.

The requirements for pavements along the street where tables and chairs were not allowed to be placed have become more relaxed.

As long as it doesn't affect pedestrians walking, no one will pay attention to it on weekdays.

Not long after I sat down with the number plate, an aunt took what Li Xiao ordered and put it on the table.

Of course, there is no strict rule here, just eat one before serving another.

Three steamed coconut stew pots and an ordinary purple sand stew pot appeared in front of them.

Smelling the aroma that hit his face, Li Xiao couldn't help but twitch his index finger.

At the same time, the system's check-in occurs:

[Ding dong, check-in is successful, the food store you checked in is: [Dayang Original Stew]]

"Without further ado, let me give you a taste of their golden signature."

A large opening has been opened on the top of the Coconut King, and the rich ingredients inside can be seen in the billowing steam.

Li Xiao didn't go fishing to see how rich the ingredients were in the Coconut King.

Ignoring the heat, he picked up the spoon and scooped up a spoonful of golden and oily soup.

The hot and steaming golden soup is put into your mouth.

An explosive sweetness immediately spreads on the tip of the tongue.

The sweetness of coconut and red dates, the freshness of squab, and the sweetness of sea coconut.

There are a lot of ingredients, but not many varieties.

A simple recipe can produce a perfect squab soup, which is simply incredible.

Li Xiao now understands a little bit what is meant by simplicity.

The bowl of soup in front of you is an example of simplicity.

There is no mysterious secret recipe, no special sauce that has been passed down for hundreds of generations.

Two red dates, three wolfberries, two sea coconuts, seven or eight medium-sized pieces of squab meat and an ordinary coconut can be so outstanding.

Awesome, really awesome.
