"My surname is Dan, and I am the chief chef of a sanatorium. It is my job to cook. So I just heard what you said and thought it made sense, so I wanted to have a chat with you."
"Actually, I just said casually, grandpa, you are the one who really knows how to cook."
"No, no, what you said makes sense. I have been learning to cook from a young age and have never been to school. I don't know how to express what I am thinking.
What you just said is exactly what I have gradually realized over the years, but I don’t know how to tell my disciples. After listening to what you just said, I think I will know what to say in the future."
"Grandpa Dan, he just said he could cook new dishes. You are an expert. Let him cook it and let everyone try it. See if he is bragging." Xia Tiantian started to fan the flames.
"Oh? Children can make new dishes? That's great, can you please make it and let me try it too?" The old man was indeed tempted by Xia Tiantian's words.
"This is a sanatorium, isn't it convenient? Besides, what are you doing?"
"It doesn't matter. There are often leaders in the banquet hall and Restaurant No. 1. We will do it here without affecting others." Grandpa Dan is the chief chef of the nursing home. He can make the decision on this matter by himself.
"Okay, but now that we have just finished eating, we have to go to the beach to play, tomorrow afternoon. I will see what ingredients are available then. I will make them. Please give me your guidance. Just don't laugh at me." Sun Dahai said
Fangfang agreed.
Seeing that Sun Dahai agreed so readily, Xia Tiantian thought that he might really know how to cook, so she wanted to make it more difficult for him.
"Grandpa Dan, what are the specialties here in Beidaihe? I mean the specialties that can be made into dishes?"
"I can't talk about specialties, but there are still some unique things. You are from the capital, and for you, seafood is rare. I think about it, it is best to eat fish and shellfish in this season.
However, there are a lot of bacteria and parasites in shellfish, and if they are not cleaned, it will be bad for the body. Therefore, children and the elderly are best to eat less shellfish."
"Oh, that's right. Dahai, can you cook fish for us to eat tomorrow? We have agreed in advance that we will eat fish cooked in a new way." Xia Tiantian said maliciously.
"Well, let me give it a try." Sun Dahai pretended to be embarrassed and reluctantly agreed.
Sun Yuanyuan quickly covered her mouth, fearing that she would laugh out loud.
Because she knew that Aunt Xiaoyue's favorite boiled fish was invented by her brother himself. Moreover, her brother also said that by improving the boiled fish, she could make another new dish "sauerkraut fish".
It's just that he has never found authentic Tianfu pickled cabbage in the capital, and he doesn't like eating it himself, so he hasn't made it at home.
Sure enough, Sun Dahai asked Grandpa Dan: "Grandpa Dan, I see that the cold dishes on the table include Tianfu pickles. Do we have Tianfu pickles here? We don't want pickled pickles from Northeast China."
After getting a positive reply from Grandpa Dan, Sun Dahai said: "Then we will eat it tomorrow night and I will make it in the afternoon. However, Grandpa Dan, you have to find two people to help me. With so many people eating, I can't handle it alone."
"
"No problem, I will arrange for two people to help you tomorrow."
Sun Dahai saw that everyone had finished eating and had rested for a while, so he said goodbye to Grandpa Dan and took his friends to the beach to play.
The entire Xishan Sanatorium is almost next to the sea. Sun Dahai and the others walked out of the restaurant and walked less than fifty meters to the beach.
Seeing the golden sandy beach and blue sea, everyone felt comfortable.
Under the leadership of Sun Dahai, everyone took off their shoes and ran onto the beach.
It is now past four o'clock in the afternoon, when the tide is low. Sun Dahai did not ask his excited friends to go into the water, but played freely on the beach.
It is best not to swim when the tide is low. Firstly, it is dangerous and it is easy to be carried away by the sea water. Secondly, the water is dirty and you cannot see your feet, so you are easily scratched by shells and the like.
This beach is very well maintained. Although the sand grains are slightly coarse, they are uniform in size. There is no garbage that was common on the beach in previous lives, and there is no need to worry about can tabs or glass fragments.
There is a reef pile a little further away. It is said that it was going to be blown up in order to eliminate potential safety hazards.
However, after seeing photos of the scene, many leaders hope to preserve this reef pile, because here, you can feel another side of the sea besides the warmth.
Sun Dahai explained clearly to everyone the reasons why he could not go into the sea now, and everyone agreed.
As a result, the beach became lively.
The beach guard quickly brought them benches, as well as shovels, kettles, buckets and other tools for playing with the sand. Obviously, these are small tools suitable for children, which shows that this is by no means the first time that children have come here.
Vacation.
The guards also wanted to set up a sun umbrella on the beach, but Sun Dahai stopped them. The sun was setting now, and it didn't mean much if the sun umbrella couldn't be set up, so I didn't bother them.
Sun Dahai asked in advance that apart from himself, only Shen Yiyi had been to the beach when she was a child. It was the first time for everyone else to see the sea, so everyone unanimously recommended him to arrange everyone's activities at the beach.
Sun Dahai discussed with the children and planned to lead them to make a simple sand sculpture.
He first simply assigned the tasks to his partners: he and Ma Jian worked hard and were responsible for digging sand. Xia Tiantian and Shen Yiyi were first responsible for transporting water in buckets, Xia Yuanyuan was responsible for pouring water with a kettle, and Sun Yuanyuan led the group of five-year-old children
, responsible for shouting and cheering from the side, just asking not to cause trouble.
When it comes to sand sculptures, Sun Dahai really knows a lot.
In his previous life, he once had a client who was a sponsor of the Pacific Asian Sand Sculpture Association (APSSA) and was also an avid sand sculpture enthusiast.
During the two or three years when Sun Dahai was working for him, whenever he had time, he would go to various sand sculpture festivals around the world. Sun Dahai was also fooled by him and participated in it twice.
Although his craftsmanship is not very good, he knows a lot of relevant knowledge. Under his influence, although Sun Dahai is not very interested in sand sculptures, he has learned a lot and can make several simple sand sculptures.
.
Later, when the word "sand sculpture" was destroyed in Internet slang, Sun Dahai never played sand sculpture again.
Of course, this is just an excuse.
When Sun Dahai was tricked into playing with sand sculptures, he thought it would be easy to have an affair on the beach.
It turned out that playing sand sculpture was basically equivalent to working as a mason digging sand under the sun and sweating like rain. He would get nothing except turning black. So he decisively quit.
This experience was enough for Sun Dahai to lead his friends to make some very simple shapes.
Sun Dahai saw that it was already late, and he couldn't play for long before it was getting dark. Moreover, real sand sculptures require cohesive sand, and the sand here in Beidaihe was not very suitable. So Sun Dahai decided,
