Behind the scenes of the entertainment industry
Chapter 19 Local Dishes
"Brother Zhao, Sister Yu, this way."
Zhou Cheng came to the entrance of the alley and found that Zhao Chenan did not come alone. His wife Yu Ruolan was attending the banquet with him.
"Zhou Cheng, long time no see. He's very handsome." Before Zhao Chenan could speak, Yu Ruolan on the side greeted Zhou Cheng with a smile on his face.
"Sister Yu, your compliment made me instantly more confident." Zhou Cheng matched up with Yu Ruolan and smiled a little exaggeratedly: "With your words, I can use them to quarrel with Zhou Ya."
"I haven't seen Zhou Ya for a while. I called her today and heard that she went to the gym." Zhao Chenan is Zhou Kezhi's secretary, and his wife is also familiar with the Zhou family.
Zhou Cheng smiled and said to Yu Ruolan: "I guess she didn't want to delay your two-person life with Brother Zhao. I just didn't expect you to ask me to pull you out."
Yu Ruolan reached out and held Zhao Chenan's arm: "Sister, I want to thank you. Your brother Zhao has been busy recently, and your appointment made him take time out. I just let him go shopping with me in the afternoon."
Zhou Cheng smiled and followed Yu Ruolan's words and said to Zhao Chen'an: "Brother Zhao, you have to pay attention to the balance between work and rest. You can't focus on work while neglecting your sister-in-law."
"There is no other way. The minister has just assigned a task, asking us to check out the teaching materials for primary and secondary schools in Yanjing City. I am afraid there may be some new propaganda tasks."
"Don't tell us. If we know about it, it will affect your work." Yu Ruolan waved her hand: "I just want you to go shopping with me in the afternoon."
"Brother Zhao, look how aware my sister-in-law is. You must be prepared for heavy bleeding in the afternoon. When you get to the mall, you will not be your husband, but you will pay the bill and say 'buy' with one word."
Yu Ruolan couldn't help laughing after hearing Zhou Cheng's words: "Haha, Xiao Cheng said it well, you are the one who pays the bill..."
Zhao Chenan also showed a wry smile: "I used to be within one foot of my husband, but now it's my wife who pays the bills..."
The three of them were chatting and joking along the alley as they walked forward. Although Zhou Cheng was joking with the two of them, his heart was not as calm as he appeared. It seemed that his father really listened to his words and began to pay attention to the issue of cultural invasion. It's just that
There are too many interest groups involved here, and there will be backlash if you don't pay attention. It would be better to remind my father more about some things.
Zhao Chen'an and his wife followed Zhou Cheng and walked less than a hundred meters along the alley entrance when they saw a renovated courtyard house. Next to its vermilion door hung an exquisite wooden sign: "Qingsongyuan Private Restaurant", Chen Li and his wife
At this time, he was standing at the door of the courtyard waiting.
"Qingsongyuan? Is this Shanghai cuisine?"
Yu Ruolan saw the sign and asked Zhou Cheng in surprise.
Shanghai used to be called Songjiang, and this Songjiang is the ancient name of Wusong River. Even the mouth of the Yangtze River is called "Wusongkou" by Shanghai people. So in addition to "Shanghai", the other thing that can represent Shanghai is "Song"
Words.
Hearing Yu Ruolan's question, Zhou Cheng nodded. Zhao Chenan and Yu Ruolan were both from Shanghai. They were high school classmates before, so the dinner arranged today was also from Shanghai.
Then Zhou Cheng, as the middleman, began to introduce them to each other: "Brother Zhao, this is my senior brother Chen Li in school. He has always taken good care of me. Next to him is his lover Qian Lele. Brother Li, this is me.
I mentioned to you Director Zhao, he has a very good relationship with Director Wang of our Yanjing Station, and this person next to me is my sister-in-law, you can just call her Sister Yu together with me."
"Director Zhao, Sister Yu, hello. Thanks to Zhou Cheng, I can invite you two today. It's a great honor." Chen Li and Qian Lele hurriedly extended their hands to shake hands with the two of them, and then turned sideways to let them in.
"We are family friends with Xiao Cheng, and we have known each other since he was in elementary school." Zhao Chenan did not ask for help, and motioned to Chen Li and others to enter the box alongside him.
Several people sat down separately. Zhao Chenan did not refuse to sit at the main seat. On his left was Yu Ruolan, followed by Qian Lele. As for who should be next to Zhao Chenan's right, Chen Li and Zhou Cheng had different opinions.
"I'm just a slacker today, so don't push me up." Seeing that Chen Li still wanted to be polite, Zhou Cheng directly confirmed his seat, sat at the bottom table, and reached out to hand the menu brought by the waiter to Yu Ruolan.
Yu Ruolan looked through the menu and Qian Lele joined in: "My Chen Li heard from Zhou Cheng that Director Zhao and Sister Yu are both from Shanghai and like to eat our own cuisine, so we asked someone to find this private restaurant.
"
Yu Ruolan said doubtfully: "There are not many authentic local dishes in Yanjing. Even the old restaurants in Shanghai don't have the same taste as those eaten in Shanghai."
"It's up to you, Sister Yu, to taste it. After all, you are an expert."
"I can't call you an expert. I've just been a glutton since I was a child and like to taste it."
Zhou Cheng followed up with a compliment: "Sister, you are not called a glutton. Nowadays, you are called a gourmet. Some people have even made a blog to introduce food. You can also try it."
"You're really good at talking now. Fortunately, Uncle Zhou and Aunt Lin were still worried that you were just like a boring gourd and wouldn't be able to find a girlfriend." Yu Ruolan rolled her eyes at Zhou Cheng with a smile.
Qian Lele was surprised and said: "No way, Zhou Cheng doesn't have a girlfriend yet? There are many beautiful girls in our station, sister, let me introduce them to you."
When the matter of his girlfriend was mentioned, Zhou Chenggong bowed his hands and begged to let go. Yu Ruolan had mentioned several times that she would introduce her cousin, who was studying in college, to Zhou Cheng, but Zhou Cheng declined them all.
Yu Ruolan looked at the menu and ordered several authentic local dishes, including the river shrimp Zhengyan and Babao duck, which tested her skills. Then she handed the menu to Qian Lele and asked her to choose her favorite dishes.
"There are only five of us, so we don't need to waste too much, as long as we have enough to eat. The main thing today is to try the taste. If it is authentic, we will come here more often in the future." Zhao Chenan looked at Qian Lele and ordered two more dishes and a soup, and stopped him.
Qian Lele took the menu and looked at Chen Li with some confusion. She and Yu Ruolan just ordered a lot. In fact, it was only four cold dishes, four hot dishes, and one soup. Considering each portion of the dish,
The portions of the dishes may be a bit cramped, and both the host and the guest may be a little embarrassed.
It was Zhou Cheng who helped her out, and reached out to take the menu from her hand: "Brother Zhao, I finally killed Brother Chen, and I don't want to order a few more dishes. Give us a portion of this Liuyang Crab Dou, braised in water."
Is it roasted fish tail?...Sister Yu, you Shanghainese are just petty bourgeoisie, you can call a fish tail so poetic."
Zhao Chenan probably also remembered the weight of our dish, smiled at Zhou Cheng, and then explained to him: "Braised water was not our dish before. It originally belonged to Anhui cuisine, and was later introduced to Shanghai by Huizhou merchants.
Add local dishes to it.”
"Brother Zhao, you are very knowledgeable. You are worthy of being a top student at Beijing Normal University." Zhou Cheng's words were echoed by Chen Li and others, who gave a thumbs up.
"I also liked to eat this dish when I was a child, so I understand a little bit about it." Zhao Chenan was modest, and then continued to the waiter: "I use big herring tail to make the dish, and it needs to be turned over several times.
And the fish tail keeps coming, which makes it very difficult. The chef is very particular about his technique."
The waiter who was taking notes on the dishes heard this and said to Zhao Chen'an: "Sir, don't worry, our chef was originally the chef of Deyuelou in Shanghai, and he is very good at this dish."
After the waiter left with the menu, Yu Ruolan said to several people: "It turns out he is the chef of Deyuelou. It seems that the dishes must be very authentic."
Zhao Chenan pointed to some photos hanging in the box and said, "You can't go wrong. Look at these people in the photos, they are all celebrities from Shanghai."
"Oh, Xi Meijuan, Wang Zhiwen, Lu Yi...are really all from Shanghai. The person in the middle taking a photo with them should be the boss." Yu Ruolan looked around, and the more she looked, the more surprised she became: "I didn't expect Lu Yi
I've been here too, and you can see he's as handsome in photos as he is on TV."
"Ahem..." Zhao Chenan was speechless when he saw his wife pointing at Lu Yi's photo with an obsessed look on her face.
Qian Lele came up and said to Yu Ruolan: "Sister Yu, I didn't expect you to also like Lu Yi. He is also my idol. When he played Xiao Tong, I was obsessed with him."
