Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 3 3.288 copies of noodles (ask for book reviews, bookmarks, recommendation tickets, monthly tickets)
PS: Most of the gourmet shops that appear in the article have prototypes, and the names of the shops are all homophonic.

While pointing the camera at the ladies and sisters who appear on the road from time to time, chatting with the audience.

Li Xiao soon came to today's highlight, a noodle shop at the end of Zhongshan South Road.

He raised the camera and pointed it at the signboard of the noodle shop, on the antique wooden signboard.

Written in golden paint, [Crab Family Yard] four big characters.

Li Xiao introduced

"Crab Family Courtyard, if there are old Hangzhou people in the audience, even if you haven't been there, you must have heard of it, at least seen it in the circle of friends."

"That's right, it's the Xiejia compound where a bowl of noodles sells for 288."

With the blessing of Li Xiao's popularity, the number of people in the live broadcast room increased rapidly.

Unknowingly, it has quietly exceeded 1000, and more than a dozen barrages also appeared on the screen.

"Hey, is it eating and broadcasting? It's actually broadcasting [Crab Family Garden], okay?"

"A serving of 288 noodles, is there gold in it?"

"Isn't the person upstairs from Hangzhou?"

"Really? Why? Is it very famous in Hangzhou?"

"It's really famous. I ate it once a year ago. It tastes really good, but it's too expensive."

Li Xiao looked at the rare audience of more than a thousand, and was overjoyed, knowing that his reputation had played a role.

Without any hesitation, I entered [Crab Family Yard] with a camera.

Due to the relatively high price, the number of people waiting was not as many as other restaurants. Li Xiao only waited in line for a few minutes before being led into the inner courtyard from the door by the welcoming lady.

Li Xiao listened to the introduction of the welcome lady in a plain cheongsam, and at the same time took the camera to present the surrounding landscape to the audience in the live broadcast room.

The welcome lady's voice is very graceful and clear, only to hear her introduction
"Our [Crab Family Yard] used to belong to a Zhejiang businessman surnamed Chen. Later, due to some reasons, the businessman surnamed Chen's family declined."

"This mansion has also changed hands several times, and finally became the current Crab Family Courtyard."

"The Crab Family Courtyard is very large. According to the ancient saying, there should be three entrances and three exits."

"However, there are only three areas in [Crab Family Courtyard] that are open to the public."

While speaking, Miss Yingbin had already led Li Xiao through the long aisle to the garden.

Hangzhou and Suzhou love gardens and landscaping, and the courtyards of rich families pay attention to low-key and graceful.

Entering from the gate, one usually passes through a long corridor before arriving at a small garden. Passing through this small garden is the welcoming hall. Of course, the situation mentioned here is for ordinary wealthy businessmen and officials.

Some rich families have a longer corridor after this small garden, and then they can reach the current garden, and the garden at the back is dozens of times larger than the garden in the front yard.

This small garden has also been carefully designed, and the smooth lake stones form a small rockery in the center of the garden.

Most of the surrounding flower gardens are simple and elegant plum blossoms and pear blossoms, but unfortunately, December is not the season for plum blossoms, otherwise Li Xiao thinks the scenery here must be very beautiful.

The back of the garden is isolated by glass, and behind the glass is a back-shaped hall. The hall wraps the garden, and the view of the garden can be seen from the hall.

Although the scenery in the garden is somewhat withered at this time, there is no one left near the glass.

The welcome lady continued to introduce

"The hall is the semi-circular area that guests see, and the private seats are at the back of the hall."

"However, our private seats are all 4-person or 8-person rooms, and there is a 15.00% service charge for the private seats."

"So, if the guest is only one person, we suggest that you choose to sit in the lobby."

Li Xiao nodded

"Let's go to the lobby then."

He didn't intend to be a so-called private seat, and he was even more shocked when he heard that there would be an additional 15.00% service charge.

Hearing Li Xiao's answer, the welcoming lady showed a professional smile, nodded slightly, raised her right hand horizontally, and led Li Xiao to continue walking inside.

Taking Li Xiao to a single seat against the wall, the welcoming lady put down the menu
"Hello, guest, this is our menu. Please take a look first. After you have selected it, press this pager, and our colleagues will come to help you order."

The welcoming lady pointed to the pager on the table, bowed slightly and left.

Li Xiao looked around with the camera, and it really deserves to be a place where noodles are sold for 288.

The decoration is really good. Although it is not the kind of resplendent decoration, it looks very high-end in Suya.

The sight falls on the menu, there are not many things here.

[Crab Roe Noodles] There are two grades, 288 yuan and 388 yuan.

Although Li Xiao still had a few thousand dollars in his pocket, he was unwilling to waste money, so he ticked the 288 column.

Move your eyes down, there are 58 hairy crabs.

There are two flavors, namely [Steamed Hairy Crab] and [Hua Diao Drunken Crab].

Li Xiao explained to the audience

"Steaming is easy to understand. It means steaming hairy crabs in a bamboo cage. I will mainly introduce the Huadiao Drunken Crab here."

"The method of Huadiao Drunken Crab is very simple. Add ginger slices, fragrant leaves, peppercorns, star anise, cinnamon, light soy sauce, rock sugar, broth or water into the soup pot, and cook for 10 to 20 minutes on high heat."

"Use a sieve to remove the sundries in the soup pot, leaving only the soup, wait for the soup to cool, add Huadiao wine that is more than five years old, and then put the cleaned hairy crabs directly into the soup pot filled with Huadiao wine."

"Of course, the above method is raw pickling, considering that many tourists are not used to eating it."

"Here, the cleaned hairy crabs are first steamed, then put into a soup pot, and then put in the refrigerator for 24 hours, after which they can be eaten."

Don't look at Li Xiao's eloquent words, but actually read them all on the Internet. He was reluctant to eat 58 crabs before, but it's different now. Being rich is arrogance.

[Steamed Hairy Crab] and [Hua Diao Drunken Crab], I chose one each.

Press the service bell, and soon a waiter wearing a plain cheongsam took the order paper from Li Xiao's hand.

The waitress said politely

"Guests, wait a moment, it will be ready soon."

After finishing speaking, he stood still and entered the menu into the order device in his hand.

After entering the menu, the waitress showed a charming smile, and raised her right hand to signal a snack table in the distance
"Over there is our drink area and snack area. Guests can go there to see what they need. They are all free, but it is recommended to use them in moderation and not to waste them."

Li Xiao's eyes lit up, free?Free stuff is nice.

He got up quickly, took the camera and walked to the snack counter.

Seeing the things on the snack table, Li Xiao couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

Because the camera followed Li Xiao's gaze, the audience naturally saw what was on the snack table.

"Wow, what did I see? Rows of Evian mineral water? Is it in a glass bottle? I remember that it cost more than ten yuan a bottle? It's really luxurious."

"Wow, won't I get back my money if I drink a dozen bottles of mineral water?"

"Are you stupid upstairs? Can you drink a dozen bottles of mineral water?"

There are not many types of snacks on the counter, there are only three kinds of drinks, Evian mineral water, sour plum juice in glass bottles, and a pot of steaming ginger tea.

The snacks are nuts, crispy peanuts, and thumb-sized rice cakes, and the last one is the traditional osmanthus cake.

The new-style transparent osmanthus cake is different. The traditional old-school osmanthus cake is white with golden osmanthus embellishments on it. This kind of osmanthus cake has a softer texture.
