Lisco's American Life

2107. The characteristics and historical origin of Meijia cuisine

A glass cabinet at the end of the corridor displays a gorgeous costume that Mei Lanfang wore when she sang "The Drunken Concubine". There are also old record players and records that Mei Lanfang used, old cameras given by Chaplin, and many more.

Old photos. The two women present seemed particularly interested in these things. Even when they encountered something they liked, they would subconsciously stop and carefully observe the items on display.

It has to be said that eating in such a place, sometimes not only can you taste the deliciousness of the food, but it is also extremely important for the edification of the senses and culture. Perhaps it is precisely because of such similar characteristics that this restaurant

The restaurant is so civilized that it has even become an important place and place that many business tycoons must choose to entertain guests or hold business banquets.

Generally speaking, this courtyard house looks quiet and simple, and the courtyard is well-proportioned, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. Just seeing the environment can make people have an involuntary quiet charm, coupled with the influence of culture, it seems to give this house

The charm of the restaurant has been raised by several standards. It not only shoulders the responsibility of a restaurant, but is more like Mei Lanfang's private small museum. All the objects and furnishings record the major events and interesting things in his life, and are also the epitome of the development of Chinese opera.

When you step into this restaurant, you feel that even raising your voice a little is an offensive act.

The pace is very slow. Thanks to Sun Maoyang's introduction, several people have a better understanding of this restaurant. At the same time, they are also very satisfied with the choice of today's dining venue. However, it is precisely because of this behavior that everyone is grinding.

It took a long time to walk to the box that belonged to me. After following the other party's guidance and entering the box, the original feeling of fatigue came back again.

"Here's the menu, let's order and see what we can eat."

As soon as he sat down in the seat, Zhang Li seemed to have lost his support and relaxed his whole body in an unladylike posture. If the previous trip was just a little tiring for others,

So for a pregnant woman, the fatigue seems to be even stronger. At this moment, he even feels a little detached. He can't wait to replenish food as soon as possible, let himself take a good rest, and then work hard to restore his own physical strength.

and status.

Since becoming pregnant, Zhang Li feels that her physical fitness has dropped a lot, which has a lot to do with the fact that there is a child in her belly sharing her nutrition. You must know that she used to prefer physical exercise, whether it is yoga or

Whether it is fitness and various projects, I can try it as a man without hesitation, but once I have children and pregnancy, my whole person will become fragile. Many of these differences

I feel very helpless and a little depressed.

"I'm sorry, madam, we don't have a menu here. It's an overall set meal that is updated every day, and there isn't a lot of choice. But our set meal still covers a wide range of dishes."

After the service staff next to him heard Zhang Li's inquiry, he immediately said these words with a polite smile. Maybe it was because it was his first time to try it, and he didn't know much about another feature of this restaurant.

, and before Su Maoyang could stop him, the other party had already spoken out the question.

For this restaurant, the lack of a menu may be one of their major features. What guests want to eat when they come here depends on what rare ingredients the restaurant has purchased that day, and what kind of set meal the chef is going to prepare for today.

There is not much room for guests to choose. Perhaps the appearance of this format is a blessing in life for some guests who have difficulty choosing meals.

Because it is a private restaurant, there is actually no way to completely determine the menu. Moreover, this restaurant may be more expensive and the ingredients selected are also relatively precious. Some precious ingredients cannot be guaranteed to be available every day.

, and it is precisely because of this that the uncertainty of the menu is understandable.

"That's it, then it depends on your arrangements. Sorry, this is my first time coming to your restaurant."

After hearing the service staff's reply, Zhang Li actually seemed a little embarrassed. After all, his questioning seemed to be very ignorant and rustic, but he still smiled at the service staff next to him.

thank.

After the service staff responded with a smile, they left the depressing private room to leave enough space for the other party. At the same time, they also set aside some time for the other party to prepare a meal, which can make the guests in the private room more relaxed.

Communicate freely.

"Their dishes here are quite rich. I have been here many times. Although there may not be a menu, I have tried almost all the famous dishes in this restaurant, and every dish is amazing. No matter what kind

The set meals basically cover appetizers, hot dishes, soups, staple dishes, snacks, and desserts. Except for staple dishes and desserts, most dishes are regular dishes.”

Maybe the current atmosphere seemed a little awkward. Su Maoyang quickly stood up and introduced the cuisine and dishes of this restaurant to a few people next to him. For a restaurant, despite its external environment and its own culture,

The smell may play a certain supporting role, but the most important thing is the taste of the dishes. This is the foundation on which a restaurant can survive.

Speaking of Meijia cuisine, it has some history and origins. Su Maoyang actually doesn’t know much about these aspects of information, but since he was invited to taste and entertained here for the first time, he has become very fond of the taste here.

Satisfied, I would choose this place as a place to entertain clients on weekdays, and I have more or less understood the story in this regard.

The origin of Meijia cuisine naturally comes from the drama master Mei Lanfang. The master paid great attention to protecting his voice during his lifetime. The chef Wang Shoushan mainly cooked Huaiyang cuisine. He cooked for Mei Lanfang for more than ten years, and Mei Lanfang returned to Beijing.

Later, he later served as the chef at Shanghai Mansion. The current chefs at Meifu are Wang Shoushan’s third and fourth generation disciples. The production is the same as that of the past, the fire will not be too big, the stir-fry will not be too intense, and the raw materials will be carefully selected.

We are particular about the cutting of ingredients, time control, and heat control. We pay attention to the original taste, low fat, low salt, low sugar, no hemp and no spicy food. Each dish can be chewed slowly and carefully, not amazing, but with a long aftertaste.

.Diners who are accustomed to heavy flavors will have a different kind of exquisite experience.
