After complaining about the foreign food with the waiter for a while, the waiter went to the kitchen to order more food.
Wan Qianqian also knew why the waiter didn't like foreign food. The waiter was from the foodie province. There was even a joke on the internet that people from the foodie province would eat anything, including people from neighboring provinces.
People from the foodie province didn't eat this foreign food. Hmm, maybe it was really a little bad.
The owner of the kitchen was also very happy when he heard that someone from the same hometown had come. One of the four great things was meeting an old friend in a foreign land. The shop had been open here for a few years, but it was still rare to see someone from the same hometown.
All the dishes were originally small, but they had been replaced with large portions. They were happy because they didn't lack money anyway.
When Jane arrived, she recommended the special food of Kangaroo Country to Wan Qianqian and the others. When Wan Xinyi heard about the food, she asked curiously, "Jane, what's that?"
"You'll know when the time comes."
Jane said it mysteriously, arousing everyone's curiosity. The waiter was used to it. In order to meet the taste of foreigners, the chef had used many methods.
After it was done, the waiter felt that the taste was sour and sweet, which was strange. However, the foreigners liked it very much and kept saying "good", "good".
The waiter never understood the taste of foreigners. A was like frost, and B was like honey. The geographical environment and customs were different, so it was normal for the taste to be different.
However, the waiter was sure that Wan Qianqian and Gu Tanfeng's family couldn't get used to it, so he came out and asked, "Big sister, do you want to order the special dishes from the east or the foreign way?"
Wan Qianqian thought about it and said, "I want the eastern way. Tan Feng, Xin Yue, Xin Yi, how do you want to eat it?"
Gu Tanfeng and Xinyue Wan said in unison, "The eastern way."
Wan Xinyi also wanted to eat the eastern way, but she thought of something and said to Xinyue Wan, "Brother, I want to order the foreign way. When the dishes are served later, can you let me try some of the eastern way?"
"Just a little bit …" Wan Xinyi stuck out her pinky and gestured a little bit.
Gu Tanfeng said, "Xin Yi, I'll order two servings for you. I'll have both flavors." Gu Tanfeng decided and planned to order the dishes like this.
However, Wan Xinyi shook her head and said coquettishly, "Daddy, Xin Yi doesn't want to waste it. Xin Yi can't eat much. I just want to try the taste. "After that, Wan Xinyi smiled shyly.
Xinyue Wan also said, "Okay."
When Gu Tanfeng saw that the two children had made up their minds, he no longer objected. Gu Tanfeng didn't want to be the one to destroy the harmonious relationship between brother and sister.
The waiter wrote down the menu and went to the kitchen to pass the message.
The Lady Boss came out from the backyard. She was wearing a modified qipao with geometric patterns. Her figure was graceful and her every step was enchanting. She was very beautiful, the kind of beauty that had settled down.
She held a tray in her hand and walked over with a smile.
When she reached the table, she said, "I haven't seen my hometown friend in a long time. We welcome friends from afar." She placed the tray on the next table and said, "Do you want some tea?"
"Thank you."
The Lady Boss served Gu Tanfeng and Wan Qianqian tea. It was the best Biluochun tea. It was brought from the country, but only a few people in the restaurant would drink it. As time went by, it lost its fun.
Today, there were guests. The Lady Boss took out her treasured collection. This tea was never drunk outside the country. Wan Qianqian and Gu Tanfeng's family were lucky.
The Lady Boss filled Wan Qianqian and Gu Tanfeng's teacups half full and said to Jane, "Woman, do you want to try it?"
Jane nodded and said, "Of course." Jane was curious about the difference between foreign and domestic tea.
Jane took a sip. The tea didn't taste good at all. At first, there was even a bitter taste. Jane only took a sip and said to the Lady Boss, "Please add some milk to my tea. Thank you."
This … Because the customs of the two countries were different, the Lady Boss knew that foreigners wouldn't drink China's tea. This time, she just wanted to let the customer taste it. However, she didn't expect it to be like a cow chewing on a peony.
She really didn't expect the customer to follow the foreigners' way and add sweet milk to the Biluochun tea! She couldn't stand it!
The Lady Boss took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Dear customer, please wait for a moment." After that, the Lady Boss went to the kitchen to get the sweet milk. The customer was God. She couldn't afford to offend them.
Wan Qianqian quickly adapted to this little interlude. Regarding this phenomenon, she could only think of the cultural difference.
Not long after, the waiter came back with a tray and served the dishes. Some of the dishes were foreign and some were oriental. Wan Qianqian sensitively noticed that the amount of oriental dishes was a lot more.
Wan Qianqian looked at the waiter. The waiter winked at Wan Qianqian and said, "I met an old friend in a foreign land."
Alright, Gu Tanfeng and Wan Qianqian both understood what it meant. Eastern countries were all a loving family. When Wan Qianqian saw the dishes outside, she felt quite close.
"Let's eat!"
After Wan Xinyi said that, everyone started to eat. This restaurant's taste was really good. Wan Qianqian nodded in her heart as she ate.
Gu Tanfeng and Xinyue Wan seemed to like the food here too. The two of them ate quickly and politely.
Jane also tasted the oriental cuisine. It was too spicy when she ate. She kept coughing under the table and said, "So spicy!"
But her hands didn't slow down. She kept using the fork to stab the dishes that were said to be very spicy. Her speed was almost the same as that of Wan Xinyi.
When they were half full, the waiter served the special dishes. It was some steaks, drizzled with delicious juice and placed on the decorated platter.
When the dish was served, Jane wiped her mouth and said, "This dish is the reason why I brought you to this restaurant. It's really good." Jane gave a thumbs-up when she said that.
It sounded like a very good dish, but it was also divided into oriental and foreign cooking methods. Wan Xinyi was the happiest. She could eat two kinds of dishes.
First, she tasted the foreign dishes with Jane. It tasted a little sour and sweet, and the meat was a little dry. Wan Xinyi frowned after a few bites.
Why did this dish taste so strange? Then she saw Xinyue Wan eating with relish. She said pitifully, "Brother, I want to eat too."
Xinyue Wan didn't stop and cut a few pieces of meat. She put it on the plate for Wan Xinyi with her chopsticks. Wan Xinyi couldn't wait to take a bite.
It was super delicious! This meat was not as dry as the meat just now. It was very tender. Wan Xinyi ate a few more bites before she reluctantly swallowed the meat in her mouth.
She quickly began to eat the next piece.
What was the difference between the two methods? In fact, the chefs in the kitchen knew best that the meat in the foreign supermarkets was not bled, and the color was very bright red. And foreigners liked this kind of meat.
But the Easterners were different. When they slaughtered animals, they drained the blood very thoroughly. There was no such condition here, so the chefs could only boil the meat in the pot first. When most of the blood in the meat came out, the rest of the meat was processed.
Wan Xinyi ate with relish and soon finished all the meat given by Xinyue Wan. Then she looked at Xinyue Wan eagerly.
Xinyue Wan cut the meat for Wan Xinyi. In this way, Wan Xinyi and Xinyue Wan shared the meat on the plate. In the end, there was still a lot of meat left on Wan Xinyi's plate.
But Wan Xinyi was full and couldn't eat anymore. She thought of Wan Xinyi's promise not long ago that she would be thrifty and not waste food.
Now it seemed that it was a little difficult.
Wan Qianqian looked at Wan Xinyi's situation and then at Gu Tanfeng's disapproving face. She said tentatively, "Xin Yi, if you really can't eat anymore, you don't have to force yourself."
Wan Xinyi shook her head and looked at the food on the plate in pain. She made up her mind to eat. But as soon as Wan Xinyi lowered her head, Wan Xinyi's plate turned in another direction and was in front of Xinyue Wan.
Wan Xinyi looked at Xinyue Wan in confusion. Xinyue Wan said calmly, "Why are you looking at me? Sister, you have eaten so much of my meat. Can't I eat the meat on your plate? "
Xinyue Wan said seriously, but Wan Xinyi laughed and said quickly, "Of course not. Brother, please enjoy." She also picked up the chopsticks and ate with Xinyue Wan.
This meat was indeed not as delicious as the one on her plate. Xinyue Wan chewed hard and thought so.
Wan Qianqian looked at the brother and sister with a motherly smile. Then she looked at Gu Tanfeng and said, "You take after me."
Gu Tanfeng held Wan Qianqian's hand under the table and nodded. He smiled lovingly and said, "Yes, it's up to you."
"Of course." Wan Qianqian didn't feel embarrassed at all and said directly.
Jane sat opposite them. Although she couldn't understand what they were talking about, she knew that Gu Tanfeng and his family were very close when she saw them.
She was so envious. Jane couldn't remember the last time the whole family went out to eat. It should be when she was very young. Because Jane's parents divorced when she was seven.
Jane lived with her father. Her mother got married and divorced. She didn't know where she went later. It was said that she was in the far east. So Jane had always been looking forward to eastern countries. She knew that it was impossible for her parents to be together, but she still wanted to see her mother again.
When Xinyue Wan and Wan Xinyi finished all the meat on the plate, Jane came back to her senses. When Jane was in a daze, Gu Tanfeng had gone to the counter and paid the bill.
The lady boss was very fair. It was a little cheaper than what Gu Tanfeng had expected. The lady boss said with a smile, "We are all from the same hometown. It's fate that we meet. You are welcome to come to our restaurant again in the future. "
"Sure!"
Gu Tanfeng agreed. This restaurant was very hospitable and the food was delicious. The most important thing was what the lady boss said. Meeting an old friend in a foreign place, they were all guests from afar.
Outside, they were all Chinese. They should help each other.
When Xinyue Wan and Wan Xinyi finished eating, Gu Tanfeng and the others left. They sent Jane back to the botanical garden first and then went home.
