"Brother Yu, after hearing what you said, I really want to go to this jade market."
"No problem, we'll go after dinner."
"It's done!"
Benefit, Benefit, Benefit.
With three gentle knocks on the door, two waiters came in.
They are all young and beautiful girls, one is a full-time orderer, and the other is responsible for pouring water and tea for the guests in the private room.
Shen Yu and Yu Maolin immediately chose to remain silent.
"Sir, please order."
Yu Maolin directly took over the menu.
This is not to say that Yu Maolin is putting on a show or something, but that he knows that if Shen Yu orders food, he will not be able to order anything.
According to Shen Yu's temperament, he would definitely order a few dishes such as braised prawns in oil, boiled prawns, stir-fried clams, stewed small seafood, etc.
I guess you won’t even order sea crabs.
So do it yourself.
"Are there any live king crabs in the store now?"
"There are fresh ones, which are transported by air as soon as foreign fishing boats arrive at the port. You also know that live crabs can survive for up to 24 hours after being left in a cold and humid environment. It is difficult to eat live king crabs, but the taste of fresh crabs is not the same. It’s no worse than live crab, you can eat it with confidence, and live crab is a bit expensive, and it’s really uneconomical from an economic point of view.”
Yu Maolin flicked his wrist and threw out the gold card again, "Don't ask me for money. I know you have live king crabs here. I come to your Crab Abalone Restaurant to eat live crabs. Hurry up, don't be afraid that I have no money. ."
"Hello distinguished guest, we do have live crabs here, but the store stipulates that fresh crabs must be introduced first. After all, there are too few live crabs."
"How much do live crabs weigh?"
"The smallest is three pounds, the most is four pounds, and the higher ones..."
"Just tell me if you have it!"
"Yes, there is, but..."
"But what? Damn it, don't worry about us not being able to afford it. Money has never been a problem here."
The ordering clerk said with some embarrassment: "Sir, this is really a question of money. The price of live king crab in our store is 500 yuan per catty for less than 4 jins, and it is 1,000 yuan per jin for more than 4 jins, so I have to I want to inform you in advance."
Li Tietou slapped the table, "What? How did you say this? Why did it double?"
Shen Yu kicked Li Tietou hard under the table, then smiled at the orderer and said, "Just three four-pound ones."
"Yes sir."
The ordering clerk skillfully recorded everything in a notebook.
"Where's the drinks?"
"If you have something to do in the afternoon, don't drink, just have a pot of hot tea."
"No, how can four pounds of crab be enough to eat? Let's get three six-pound crabs, and some of your signature dishes." Yu Maolin made the final decision with a wave of his hand.
The ordering clerk was in a daze: "More orders? I think these three king crabs are enough."
"Okay, Brother Yu, we really can't eat too much. I understand what you mean. Even if we are not short of money, we can't waste it, right?"
Another waiter who was pouring tea for the three people put forward his own opinion: "You three have spent more than 10,000 yuan. The store has regulations and will give you four dishes. Today's dish is stir-fried river prawns and steamed shrimps." Grouper, salt and pepper shrimp, and jellyfish, these four dishes are enough to eat. In addition, I suggest you go to the aquarium downstairs to select live crabs in person, and then you can also watch them outside the glass Cooked by the chef."
Yu Maolin and Shen Yu looked at each other, and then rejected the waiter's suggestion, "It's not necessary. Since I come to eat here, I trust your store. Besides, I am good friends with your boss, otherwise I wouldn't have the 50% discount you have here." Card."
"Thank you for the compliment, sir. I would like to ask again, which way do you want to eat it? Which seasonings and whether it can be spicy?"
Yu Maolin directly interrupted the waiter, "It must be steamed. You don't need to mix the seasoning. Just give me a bottle of soy sauce and a bottle of vinegar. Well, let's add a head of garlic."
The orderer wanted to speak, but was stopped by the tea-server coughing.
After the two of them looked at each other, the orderer instantly understood that everyone who could get into the VIP room was the boss's friend or VIP. Asking for a bottle of soy sauce and vinegar was not an excessive request, just give it.< /p>
The food was served quickly. Ten minutes later, three steaming king crabs and four complimentary dishes were brought in on a special porcelain plate.
"To eat crabs, you have to do it yourself to get the taste."
Yu Maolin was the chef himself and cut off the crab legs in a few strokes, "You can take this crab body away with you."
"Isn't it too wasteful to use crabs that are so big? I asked you, how can you order six pounds of crabs, when you can only eat a few crab legs?"
Shen Yu knew that although Li Tietou's family owned a restaurant, it was his first time to eat king crab, so he explained: "King crabs are stone crab crustaceans. Strictly speaking, king crabs are not real crabs. Tietou, you Think about it, the swimming crabs, blue crabs, and hairy crabs we usually eat have eight legs, while the king crab only has six legs. And although its crab body looks big, it has very little crab meat and crab roe, and the meat quality is not as good as the legs. The king crab is very fresh and tender, so the king crab only eats crab legs."
After all, Yu Maolin and Li Tietou met for the first time. Shen Yu said it was okay, but he said it to himself, as if he was looking down on others.
"Brother Tietou, compared to crab legs, the body of king crab is more likely to harbor parasites, so many people will choose to eat leg meat, which is relatively safer, not to mention that leg meat is more enjoyable, the meat is fresh and tender, and it is convenient to eat. Many people choose to eat leg meat. Restaurants or seafood buffets only provide leg meat, not complete king crabs. Here we serve them whole to prove that the crabs are fresh."
"So that's it."
Since all the money was spent, the three of them just put their cheeks aside and started eating.
Li Tietou ate the fastest, and six crab legs soon entered his stomach. Just as he was about to pick up his chopsticks to eat, he heard a quarrel coming from the corridor outside the private room.
"A fight?"
Li Tietou loves to watch the excitement, so he walked to the door and watched the excitement directly.
"Let me ask you, who gave you the right to give up the box I reserved to others?"
The lobby manager of Xie Bao Building nodded and bowed, "I'm really sorry, Mr. Xu, I thought you wouldn't come today, and the guests in this private room hold VIP gold cards. The boss said that as long as there is a private room free, then
We have to provide guests with private rooms, even if they are free of charge or even lose money.”
"So, others are important, but I am not important, right?"
"Important, important, you are more important to our Crab Tower than anyone else. Can I free up the office for you?" The lobby manager's voice was pleading.
"Even if you free up the kitchen, I won't eat!"
"No, Mr. Xu, if I lose your order, I will pack up and leave immediately. All my mistakes are my fault. Please calm down, calm down!"
A few seconds later, the guest named Mr. Xu seemed to be relieved, "I'll give you ten minutes and find me a similar private room immediately."
"Okay, okay, I'll do it right away, I'll do it right away."
"Shen Yu, don't you hear that this voice sounds familiar?"
Shen Yu was not as nosy as Li Tietou, and had been concentrating on tasting the crab meat, "Who is this mysterious person? I know him?"
"You must know him, Xu Duofu from Xu's Jewelry."
"How blessed?"
Shen Yu frowned, put down the knife in his hand, picked up a napkin, wiped his hands, and walked out quickly.
