54. Food tasting

After deciding to spend the night at the B&B at night, An Yao took Jin Xiao to an inn that looked inconspicuous. The price was not expensive, but the environment was very good.

Each suite has a separate courtyard with cobblestones and bamboo planted. The courtyard is clean and clean. Turn on the wall lights at night, which gives a special beauty.

The courtyard gate is made of ordinary rattan and bamboo strips, and basically does not have any protective effect. In fact, this door is just a simple sight isolation. If you really want to be safe, you have to rely on the door of the room and the safe in the room. Yes, safe, Jin Xiao really didn't expect that such a small hotel would actually have a safe in it. However, according to An Yao, although this place is generally safe, you have to beware of thieves. The windows of the suite are huge floor-to-ceiling windows, and the entire wall is covered with glass.

It is actually not difficult for a thief to get in, so it is better to get a safe and put valuable items in the customer than to throw them away.

After all, such a homestay hotel, in terms of security capabilities, must not be compared with a five-star hotel. It is inevitable that you have some of your own methods.

After putting things down, Jin Xiao followed An Yao out.

After walking around for a day, he was really a little hungry.

An Yao took him out and not long after walking, he came directly to the famous Xibu Street.

Why is it famous? Because Xibu Street is the only comprehensive tourism commercial pedestrian street in the country that integrates water bar street, Chinese famous snack street, Xiangxi folk shopping boutique street, leisure inn, creative workshop, etc. It is a cultural tourism collection that cannot be copied in the core scenic area of ​​Wly District. Basically, if you come to Zhangjiajie for tourism, if you don’t come to Xibu Street to take a look, then you will be a little bit white.

The overall planning of Xibu Street is based on the layout of streets and alleys and courtyards, using the combination of building shape and volume, and using the linear floating accumulation theory as the principle to make organic arrangements. The architecture strives to be romantic, elegant and transparent, reflecting the fashionable and simple temperament, and meeting functional and aesthetic needs. The facade shape of the building uses the traditional language of the Tujia and Miao people through artistic reprocessing and simple abstract deformation as a constituent element of architectural expression, making the facade style unified and simple and atmospheric.

In fact, if you have money, whether it is the setting or the building, it will essentially not be difficult in the future.

You can invest 300 million yuan in Zhangjiajie, and I will invest 500 million yuan tomorrow to see if I can create a bigger scene?

In terms of architecture, except for real ancient buildings, it is generally not worth much.

This place is really valuable. First of all, such a huge national forest park as Zhangjiajie cannot be replicated. Even if you find a place to plant many trees, it is useless. No matter how artificially it is created, it is useless, because the entire forest park is a wonder of the gift of heaven and earth. The complete ecosystem inside and the natural scenery formed by countless years are difficult for modern technology to replicate.

Secondly, this place has a humanistic advantage that other places do not have - the local style and Miao folk customs in western Hunan. This is also very important. Only in western Hunan and western Hunan can it be called Xiangxi. Only the group of people who have lived here since ancient times are qualified to inherit the folk customs here. Without this, you are other folk customs, and it has nothing to do with Xiangxi.

First, there are natural gifts and then humanistic styles, which creates Xibu Street's unique status.

It may not be the best, but it is the only one.

An Yao dragged Jin Xiao to a hotel with a very, very ordinary storefront.

"I don't bring him to the ordinary people. I tell you that this restaurant is opened by my classmate's house and the taste is absolutely great. If you try it later, you will say it is not delicious. I will ask the boss to give you a free order for this meal!"

An Yao said confidently.

Jin Xiao just smiled when he heard this.

It is said that it is difficult to adjust everyone. He is not picky about food. As long as the taste is similar, he can accept it. If someone else is picky, he will not believe it. Such a small shop can satisfy everyone? It is impossible! Of course, he just thought to himself, why do you have to argue about such a thing?

"You order food. I'm here for the first time and don't know what's good."

"That's all, of course, the local specialty three-pot, as well as grilled fish, and bandit dishes. By the way, do you have any foods that are not allowed? What's spicy? Can you eat spicy food?"

Jin Xiao told An Yao about his situation that fat meat and onions are avoided. This has been said before. He does not eat fat meat, but he cannot eat it himself. It doesn’t matter if there is fat meat in the dish. He just doesn’t pick it up. It’s not that the whole dish cannot be eaten as long as there is fat meat in the dish. He is not that serious. As for the problem of spicy food, according to the taste of Beiyun, Jin Xiao can eat spicy food, but he also knows that the people in Hunan are all spicy madmen. He asks himself that he can’t compare, so he feels humble.

"It's slightly spicy."

As a result, I got An Yao's little look of contempt.

The little girl saw that she was a regular customer and she placed an order so fast.

After a day of contact, she also roughly understood Jin Xiao's character.

He is rich, but not bad, has a gentle personality, is easy to talk, and does not take it seriously when spending money.

So she didn't save Jin Xiao any money. Which one is more expensive, of course, it must be delicious first, and the second is the price. But generally speaking, delicious food will not be cheap. Shredded potatoes are of course cheap and delicious, but the question is, will anyone order this dish in a restaurant? It can only be said that it is very rare. Since most people have arrived at the restaurant, they must order some dishes that cannot be cooked every day, so the price is not easy to say.

The menu was delivered, and the drinks came first after a while.

"Let's not drink alcohol first, drink some juice first. His juice is freshly squeezed and it's absolutely delicious."

Jin Xiao did not express his opinion on this, An Yao said that it was whatever it was.

After waiting for a while, the dish was finally served. The first dish was a "big dish" - bandit pork liver!

This dish itself, stir-fried pork liver, is indeed not hard enough, but it will be different if you add a bandit dish.

The bandit dishes in western Hunan are considered niche local dishes. They have a reputation, but their communication strength is not enough. Basically, they rarely encounter them outside without this land. Even if they encounter them, they may not be authentic.

Jin Xiao has long been famous for his reputation as a bandit dish. This dish often appears in various literary works. But he basically can't see bandit dishes around his life. In fact, even if he really sees them, he may not try it considering whether the other party is authentic or not.

But now it is different. He is now in Hunan and is led by local tour guides, so he is very looking forward to this dish.

The bandit pork liver, it feels a bit scary when I hear the name of this dish. In fact, it is just a dish of fried pork liver.

But this fried pork liver is not simple, it is burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, spicy and domineering, fresh and wild, and is the biggest feature of bandit pork liver. Large pieces of pork liver, paired with local red peppers and garlic, put them in a pan and stir-fry on a high heat for a few minutes. Before the dish was served, the aroma of pork liver was already coming. The large pieces of pork liver not only retain the local dietary characteristics of Hunan rural areas, but also its taste is still crispy and tender, moderately spicy, and delicious.

With one mouthful, Jin Xiao was immersed in this strange delicacy.

He is completely acceptable to pork liver, and even likes it quite well. However, Beiyun has always only eaten braised pork liver. This is the first time he eats fried pork liver. This taste alone makes him very novel. In addition, the refreshing spicy taste, to be honest, serving a bowl of rice at this time is simply, and I don’t know what words to use to describe it.

Sure enough, I believe An Yao is right. Not to mention anything else, just after drinking this pork liver, Jin Xiao was already conquered by this small shop with less attention to the storefront.
Chapter completed!
