September 24th will turn cloudy and sunny, so it’s time to open for business and go out.
Yu's Restaurant quietly put up its business sign.
Zhao Youwei came to the capital from Ancheng for a trip. His girlfriend saw Lan Tingxuan's store visit video on a well-known social platform and clamored to come and pull weeds.
Only when we arrived at Lanhai Street did we find out that this store actually required reservations in advance, and the queue was already three days in the future. Looking at his girlfriend's expectant eyes, Zhao Youwei gritted his teeth and asked the boy who was waiting in line alone: "Can you please
Give me your number? I'll pay..."
The boy looked at him the same way he looked at Shen Jingbing, and said disdainfully: "Lantingxuan's number cannot be measured by money." After saying that, he turned his head and played with his mobile phone and ignored him.
Zhao Youwei reluctantly asked a few more people, but all got the same result. He looked at his girlfriend apologetically, feeling that the light in her eyes gradually went out.
"How about we eat somewhere else?" Zhao Youwei looked around and saw an ancient red and black pavilion next to Lantingxuan, "That restaurant seems quite unique."
An old-style wind chime was installed on the door. Zhao Youwei opened the door and the wind chime moved with the wind, making a pleasant tinkling sound. A young girl wearing a black robe and tied up her hair came over: "Welcome, you guys
?”
Zhao Youwei stretched out two fingers.
The girl continued to smile: "Please follow me." Zhao Youwei followed her, only to see the red hairband on her head swaying from side to side as she walked, and he held down his hand that was about to move.
"Please sit down, I'll get you some tea. There's a menu on the table, you can take a look at it first." The girl guided them to their seats, gave them a brief introduction, and left happily.
His girlfriend came close to him and whispered: "This store is quite beautiful."
The interior of the restaurant is entirely made of wooden grilles, and each small private room has a simple sliding door. The tables and chairs are also made of wood. A stream runs through all the private rooms, with budding trees sprouting sporadically on the surface of the stream.
Lotus buds, and a few small red carps waving their tails.
The light is a warm beige color, shining through the wooden railing above the head and casting a light on the table. In such an environment, the mood seems to be much calmer.
Zhao Youwei opened the menu, and on the homepage were four large characters in regular script: Yujia Restaurant.
He flipped through it hastily, and found the names of the dishes in regular script, as well as pictures and introductions to the dishes. He handed the menu to his girlfriend and began to observe the restaurant himself.
His hometown Anseong has a long history. Many dynasties have their capital in Anseong. It is no exaggeration to say that there are at least several in his history textbooks from childhood to college. The most glorious moment was undoubtedly the Tang Dynasty, which is still preserved in Anseong.
Tang Dynasty ruins.
The feeling he gave here was surprisingly consistent with some of the buildings in Anseong.
"Hello, your tea is here." The girl came over with a tray, a half-high kettle, a tea bowl, two tea cups, and a cup of tea leaves. "This is Phoenix Dancong." She said, putting down the plate in her hand.
, and started making tea in front of the two of them.
Put the tea leaves into the tea bowl and brew it with boiling water. The first bowl is thrown away, and the second bowl is the tea you can drink.
Zhao Youwei picked up the tea cup given by the girl. As soon as he put it to his nose, he could smell the faint fragrance of silver flowers, mixed with the fragrance of milk. It was sweet and smooth when it entered his throat. The tea was slightly bitter, but it tasted sweet quickly.
He doesn't usually drink tea, but this tea somehow suited his appetite.
My girlfriend didn't have time to drink water, so she flicked her fingers on the menu and started ordering: "Charcoal-roasted ring snails, lotus seed paste, braised clams, and fresh mushrooms and mustard greens. As a staple food, instead of rice, I want an oyster bake."
The girl muttered silently in her mind, looked at their bodies, and reminded: "There are too many dishes to finish."
My girlfriend closed the menu and said proudly: "Don't worry, I'll take it away if you can't finish it!" Anyway, it will never be wasted.
"Okay, please wait a moment." Since the guest strongly requested it, the girl didn't force herself and simply drifted away again.
Her girlfriend looked at her back with envy: "There is a fairy spirit when she walks..."
Zhao Youwei squinted at her and said, "If you eat less properly, you will be like this in a short time." Since falling in love with Zhao Youwei, his girlfriend has let herself go and taken him everywhere to look for delicious food. Over the past year, I have gained more than 30 pounds, and my whole body has a sense of plumpness.
Of course, Zhao Youwei doesn't think she's fat, but he likes his current girlfriend who is chubby. It's a blessing to be able to eat her!
The first dish was braised stone clams. They were big clams, each one the size of a coin. They were filled with green and red peppers and were smoking hot. Zhao Youwei picked up one of the clams with his chopsticks. The sauce was so thick that it stuck to his chopsticks. Serve it and eat it in your mouth. It's so delicious that your eyebrows will fall off.
The snails are filled with the aroma of charcoal after being grilled on a small charcoal stove. The snail meat is crystal clear, cut into thin slices, and dipped in the special sauce, which is crisp, tender and refreshing.
My girlfriend's chopsticks quickly changed between several plates. Even a small piece of kale was beyond imagination. It was crunchy and crispy in the mouth, mixed with the aroma of mushrooms, and she kept nodding her head.
The last dish was lotus paste. My girlfriend looked at the pork belly on the plate and felt a little confused. She doesn’t like fatty meat. But the lotus paste at the bottom is her favorite sweet, little angel and little devil. After struggling in her mind for a long time, she decided to let Zhao Youwei give it a try first.
The pork belly has been boiled and fried, and most of the fat has been trapped in it. At this moment, it is bright red in color. When you pick it up with chopsticks and shake it, the meat is soft but not rotten, and full of elasticity. The lotus seed paste covers the back layer. Take one bite. It has a meaty aroma but is not particularly sweet. The fat meat tastes like ice cream, with a hint of saltiness in the sweetness.
It was so delicious that a smile spread across his face.
He quickly took a piece and gave it to his girlfriend: "If you miss it, you will regret it for the rest of your life!"
Sure enough, the rich pork belly, the fatty part is not greasy at all, and the taste of lotus paste is just right. You can say it is a meat dish, but it also looks like a dessert. Say it is a dessert, but it is really a meat dish.
Zhao Youwei didn't know whether his girlfriend had eaten enough. Anyway, he was full, and there was some soup left on the plate. He stood up holding his bloated belly, eating a little, and unbuttoned his pants in the process. Fasten it again.
He took a breath, um, a little tight.
My girlfriend is still drinking tea with great interest. After a meal, she can still have a cup of tea.
Before leaving, his girlfriend took Zhao Youwei to take pictures in the restaurant. She sat by the stream and played with the water. She pretended to be a shy girl peeking at her lover. She also took a photo with the girl who received them, but she looked so shy. What's with the action of leaning on someone's shoulder? Shouldn't she be leaning on his shoulder? And... what's with the girl's loving eyes?
As they walked out of the door, the wind chimes sounded again in the wind, as if saying goodbye to them.
After returning to Ancheng this time, he was going to work in the Garden Country with his girlfriend, and he didn't know if he would have a chance to come to the capital again.
But he knew that in the years to come, he would definitely remember that there was a Yujia restaurant in the capital, where he had an unforgettable meal.
