Chapter 1928 EP1929.Entertainment

There is a saying that ‘take a look at one spot and see the whole leopard’. Just by looking at the variety of dishes provided in the small canteen where Shi Xiaolei and the three of them ate, they could probably feel the atmosphere and understand how strong the logistics support of this base was.

A small canteen with an area of ​​only about 200 square meters and only eight tables in total. The menu not only lists hundreds of common stir-fry dishes, but also serves stewed goose, lamb scorpions, and roasted lamb legs in an iron pot. Such northern hard dishes, as well as famous dishes from the south such as vinegar fish, lion head, hanging oven roast goose...

"Tsk tsk, that means I saw it with my own eyes." Shi Xiaolei turned over the menu book in his hand and said with emotion: "Otherwise, who would dare to believe that this is true."

"I'm not bragging, haha." Zheng Xian smiled proudly and greeted Shi Xiaolei: "Come on, come on, order food, order whatever you want. Speaking of which, this is the first time I treat you to dinner. "This is a rare opportunity, so please don't be polite to me."

In line with Zheng Xian's tone, Peng Mingwei also made a joke: "The chef in this family is very capable and the food is very good. I ate here last time and the taste is not much worse than those time-honored restaurants in Beijing." ”

"Really? Then I want to try it." While continuing to browse the menu, Shi Xiaolei muttered: "It's no worse than the time-honored restaurants in the capital. In other words, what you ate last time was northern food, right? Hmm... Well, let’s try the chef’s skills in cooking southern dishes today. Let’s start with coconut chicken and then add Dai-flavored lemongrass grilled fish.”

"Southern cuisine, okay. The roasted goose in the hanging stove is quite good, as well as oyster pancake and fried crab in the typhoon shelter... As far as I know, these are the chef's specialties." Zheng Xian interrupted and suggested. .

"Then let's have half a roast goose, a plate of fried crabs, and an order of oysters." Looking up at the waiter waiting at the table, Shi Xiaolei asked her with a smile: "Is there any beer? A cold one." kind."

"Uh..." While writing down the name of the dish, the waitress shook her head: "Sorry, we don't serve drinks here."

"Huh?" Shi Xiaolei blinked, but he really didn't expect to get such an answer.

There was no need for the waiter girl to speak, Zheng Xian had already given an explanation: "Our situation here is quite special, and some rules are indeed different from those outside."

Being drunk can easily cause trouble.

If it's just a drunk who is unlucky on his own, such as being so drunk that he forgets to clock in for work, then it's okay, but if the situation is more serious...

Don't forget, this is a secret base located inside the mountain. If any drunkard accidentally makes a mistake and blows up the shells stored in the ammunition magazine, or damages the power supply line, it will be a lot of fun.

Thinking about it carefully, it is indeed necessary to set a ‘no drinking’ rule to eliminate the possibility of drunkenness causing trouble at the source.

"That's it, okay, then give me a glass of ice water." Shi Xiaolei smacked his lips and nodded in understanding.

After writing down Shi Xiaolei's request, the waiter turned to look at Zheng Xian and Peng Mingwei.

"Just mineral water, room temperature."

"Okay, is there anything else?"

"Brother Shi?" Looking up, Zheng Xian gave Shi Xiaolei a questioning look.

"That's enough, that's enough. There are only three of us. Ordering so many dishes will definitely be enough to eat."

"Then order these first. If it's not enough, we'll add more later." After receiving Shi Xiaolei's answer, Zheng Xian turned to look at the waiter.

"Okay. I'll pour you some tea first, and you three can drink while you wait."

He sent the menu to the kitchen and brought tea to the three people sitting at the table. After finishing this work, the waiter temporarily left the three people and went back to sit down behind the counter.

In order to entertain Shi Xiaolei, Zheng Xian used his privileges as the director and suspended the normal business of this small canteen.

At this moment, except for three people, there were no other diners in the store.

No wonder the waitress seems so relaxed.

"Director Zheng, is this appropriate..." While waiting for the food to be served, I saw customers turned away several times by the signs outside the door. The first time or two, he didn't feel anything, but after more times, Shi Xiaolei felt a little embarrassed: "What about that, why don't we remove that brand? Anyway, we are not fine people, there is really no need to do it So solemn."

"It's okay, it's okay." After waving his hand, Zheng Xian replied with a smile: "You don't have to think so much, really. That's right, these canteens in the base must undergo safety inspections every month, and in order to ensure that the inspections The results are real enough. The inspection team suddenly comes to the door every time... So, things like "the business may need to be suspended on some day", whether it is the chef who opens the shop or the guests who come to eat, have actually become accustomed to it. ”

"That's it... okay then." After hearing what Zheng Xian said, Shi Xiaolei put aside his guilt and his expression returned to normal.

While chatting and waiting, after a while, waves of aroma wafted out from the food outlet connected to the kitchen.

Smelling this aroma, Shi Xiaolei's hunger increased slightly, and his expectations for the dishes also increased by a few percentage points.

Fortunately, there was only one table of customers in the store, so the food was served a little faster than usual. After waiting for nearly a quarter of an hour, the first plate of dishes was finally brought out by the waiter.

"This is the three-point Dai flavor lemongrass grilled fish. The roast goose and oyster bake are also ready. Please wait a moment, I will bring it over."

"Hey, okay, thank you."

"You're welcome, please use it slowly." After agreeing, the waiter turned and left to bring the next dish.

"Come on, use your chopsticks." Zheng Xian picked up the chopsticks and greeted Shi Xiaolei enthusiastically: "Try the food we serve here and see if it is the same as what I told you."

"It looks quite greedy." Shi Xiaolei also picked up the chopsticks and turned his attention to the plate in front of him.

On an emerald green banana leaf, a whole fish cut open was spread out. Not much powder or granules for seasoning can be seen, which exposes the browned and oily fish meat. The lemongrass used to enhance the flavor during the baking process has been removed in advance and replaced by a few green and fresh lemongrass for garnish.

I have to say that the color of this grilled fish is quite good.

In addition, the aroma floating in the air is also quite distinctive... It is very delicious, but at the same time it is refreshing, which has an indescribable contrast.

Shi Xiaolei swallowed with a "Gulu" sound. His appetite was whetted, and he had strong expectations for the "taste" of this dish.

"Don't be stunned. Come on, pick it from here first. The meat on the belly of the fish is the most oily and watery, so it's the most delicious."

"Uh, don't, don't, don't, I'll do it myself." That's what he said, but after seeing Zheng Xian's actions, Shi Xiaolei still subconsciously picked up the small dinner plate in front of him and stepped forward to take it. Come over for fish meat.

Finally took a bite.

Savoring the taste in his mouth, Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but narrowed his eyes: "Hmm~~, it's delicious~"
