After the baptism of the four powders just now, Si Jinning and the other two should have been mentally prepared, but that was only in theory.
For example, Wu Hai had to eat every meal at The Kitchen God, but no matter whether the dishes were repeated or not, he would always feel refreshed no matter how many times he ate them. Moreover, these were not the same desserts.
The four pastries gave Sun Ji and the others a great shock.
In fact, compared to the four pastries just now, they were exceptionally exquisite. A cold fragrance assailed their nostrils, and the four pastries were hot and steaming. Even the most ordinary crab meat shumai looked very good.
The light yellow skin was pinched into a flower-like crown. The crab meat was slightly greasy. Each of the Little Shumai looked very beautiful. They were really small. There were six Little Shumai in one steamer. Most importantly, the steamer was only the size of a palm, so it was obvious how small it was.
Among them, the most attractive were definitely the eyebrow and crystal ball. Their snow-white color and almost transparent color added a bit of beauty to the two already very good-looking pastries.
The only improvement for the three of them was probably that they were still in a daze and ate the food as usual, so there was no need for Xiao Ma to remind them.
They stretched out their chopsticks in unison towards the desserts they liked. It was probably because the three of them had different professions, so their interests and hobbies were different, so the desserts they liked were also different. Just like the pastries just now, it was easier for Xiao Ma to hide himself.
The four pastries and four pastries were usually served to the ship's guests when they enjoyed tea and the scenery. They were very exquisite, because not only was the scenery a scenery, but these beautiful desserts were also a scenery. It could be said that they were a combination of the two.
Since ancient times, although not all Subang dishes originated from the ship's dishes, it was true that most of the ship's dishes eventually evolved into Subang dishes. Many of the ship's dishes were very familiar, but of course, there were also many that had never been heard of.
In order to cater to the beautiful scenery, many of the names of the dishes were very poetic and picturesque. It was impossible to tell what the dish was just by looking at the name, such as Jade Dyke Spring Dawn, Sky Full of Stars, Jade House at Night, and so on.
At first glance, it seemed like a description of scenery or something else. It had nothing to do with the dish, but it was indeed the name of the dish.
There were also some dishes whose ingredients could be identified at a glance, such as Duck Boat in Hot Oil, Fiery Bamboo Shoots, Honey Fire Recipe, and so on. The names of the dishes were elegant, and one could roughly identify the ingredients, so one would not be dumbfounded at a glance.
Of course, this was only Si Jinning. Sun Ji and Chu Jianhua were also a little confused. The main reason was that one of them liked Sichuan Cuisine, while the other liked Hunan Cuisine. They really didn't know much about other cuisines. Being able to name a few famous dishes was already a good thing. It was simply nonsense to expect them to know something about other cuisines.
When the first dish of the main course was served, they were a little stunned.
Naturally, the first dish that was served was the cold dish. It was called Flower Pavilion. The name was very poetic. Even Si Jinning had never eaten it before. However, when he saw the dish, he knew why it was called this.
It was clearly not a hot dish, but the rising white mist still gave people a feeling of Jasper Lake Wonderland. Pure white flowers were scattered on a layer of dark brown, and the black and white were clearly distinguished, making it look even more beautiful and colorful.
In addition, there was a circle of green around it. Several colors were mixed together. Although they seemed to be separated from each other, they were very harmonious.
It gave people a feeling of planting a dish as its name suggested.
Si Jinning was the first to pick up his chopsticks and pick up a beautiful flower. An extremely fresh taste immediately exploded on the tip of his tongue.
It was the taste of silverfish. These flowers were all made from silverfish. Originally, if the fish was eaten cold, it would inevitably have a fishy smell. This was the unique smell of fish.
However, Si Jinning didn't have such a feeling at all when he ate it. On the contrary, apart from the fresh and sweet taste, there was only a faint jasmine fragrance. It not only matched the name but also brought out the extreme freshness, making people unable to stop eating it.
It was exquisite, smooth, and had a pleasant fragrance. It was as if he had eaten the jasmine flowers one by one. The taste of the flowers bloomed in his mouth, and the taste was extremely beautiful.
Si Jinning couldn't stop at all. Of course, even so, he didn't eat much. After all, only one dish was served and there were four people fighting for it. How could he eat much?
Four people?
Wait, why were there four people? Si Jinning immediately came to his senses and looked at Little Ma who had an innocent expression.
"Heh heh heh, it's the second time we meet. Let's eat together and have fun." Little Ma's skin was so thick that it was almost invulnerable.
Even if he was being stared at by three pairs of burning eyes, he didn't think there was any problem. However, to avoid unnecessary entanglements, he explained further.
"The dishes I ordered can all be eaten later," Little Ma said.
Little Ma was so kind to change his original plan. On one hand, he didn't expect the three people opposite him to be so weak. Only now did he realize that he had been fighting for the dishes, which aroused the little pity in him. On the other hand, Si Jinning's group really had a lot of dishes. He had also ordered two main dishes. He was afraid that he would be blacklisted if he couldn't finish them.
If Si Jinning's group moved slowly, Little Ma's portion of the dishes was much more than he had expected. Naturally, there would be problems.
At the beginning, in order to display his strength and protect the dishes on his side, Little Ma ordered stewed pork knuckle and rock sugar pork knuckle. They were both dishes that required time, so they were served a little later than usual.
The fact that Little Ma's dishes hadn't been served until now was the result of his calculations. However, there was a slight error at this time, so Little Ma was very easy to talk to.
Si Jinning and Sun Ji looked at each other. It was said that one shouldn't hit a smiling person. Plus, Little Ma had indeed chatted with them for a while. Of course, this was only Si Jinning's first time talking to him. It was also the first time meeting the other two. They looked much younger than Sun Ji. As the older ones, it was indeed not easy to argue with them.
Most importantly, Si Jinning's group didn't feel that they ate much less. They were blindly confident in their eating speed. Since they didn't suffer any losses, they were all masters, so they naturally couldn't be stingy.
Of course, the timely arrival of the next dish was also one of the reasons. When the delicacy was served, no one had the patience to argue about what happened before. The most important thing was to seize the moment and eat a few more bites.
The four of them reached a consensus and reached out their chopsticks in unison to fight for the food.
Boat banquets were famous for being pure and not messy. The soup was clear but not watery. The juices were sweet but not greasy. The meat was tender and tasty without losing its shape. As a result, although Si Jinning's group could only eat two bites per person, the moment they finished eating, the next dish would be served.
Feast after feast was served. Almost before the residual taste in their mouths could dissipate, new delicacies would sweep over them. Wave after wave, the waves of delicacies never stopped. The few of them were simply overwhelmed.
By the time they could rest for a while, it was already time for the last hot dish. After the baptism of dozens of dishes, Si Jinning's group had already learned to be calm.
Of course, after the competition of dozens of dishes, coupled with the soothing effect of the rock sugar pork knuckle, Little Ma and Si Jinning's group had reached a state of equilibrium.
That was, each of them had to rely on their own abilities. Who ate more and who ate less was not decided by one person, but by their own actions. Whoever moved faster would eat more, and whoever moved slower would eat less.
