Chapter 272 I Just Like Pitfalls (5600 Votes Plus Updates)
Yu is a Japanese restaurant that must be reserved 24 hours in advance.
Of course, this so-called reservation must be made in advance, referring to people like Shi Lei. Miss Wei Xingyue and Wei are obviously not included in this list. No matter how many places need to be booked, it is impossible to book all the seats, especially this kind of business place similar to a club. Always leave a little space, just in case.
What's more, the guards are against people like Wei Xingyue who go whenever they want and almost never think of making a reservation.
Yu's consumption method is that the guests who make the reservation must first pay off the package fee, which is 1,800 yuan per person. When you arrive, if the content of the set meal is not enough or you are not completely satisfied, you can order some other dishes. Of course, the dishes included in the set meal are non-refundable and non-exchangeable, and the price is the same if one is not eaten.
Of course, for someone like Wei Xingyue who can never make a reservation 24 hours in advance, the set meal is not suitable for her. She is a privileged customer, so she doesn't need to pay attention to the set meal, just go in and sit down and order. Moreover, it is impossible for Yu to prepare a set meal if there is no advance reservation. The reason why this restaurant needs to make a reservation 24 hours in advance is not entirely to improve the quality, but because of the content of the set meal, they also need to prepare in advance.
It is claimed that all the ingredients are airlifted from Japan on the same day, take off in the early morning, land in the morning, close the door at noon, finish processing in the afternoon, and serve the guests' dining table directly in the evening.
But whether this is the case, no one knows, as long as the ingredients are really good and fresh, this is more of a publicity gimmick, and no one will care.
Yu's front door is not big, it looks like a Japanese restaurant that can be seen everywhere. On the low eaves, there is a wine flag with a feather written on it. The whole building is in Japanese style, or Tang Dynasty style. It looks like an all-wood structure, but it must only be wrapped with solid wood for the walls. The so-called Japanese style is mostly the style of the Tang Dynasty. Japanese culture originated from the Tang Dynasty in China to a large extent.
The way of incense, the way of tea, and even the way of swordsmanship are all inseparable from the Tang Dynasty. The so-called Japanese samurai sword is just a fine-tuned variant of the Tang sword.
If you have to say that Japanese culture has nothing to do with the Tang Dynasty, then I'm afraid there is only food. The Japanese food has a strong local Japanese style. Japan is an island country. When those ronin swordsmen went out, the dry food on their bodies was rice balls. The better one is wrapped in a layer of seaweed, almost only dry rice balls. Surrounded by the sea on all sides, most of the Japanese islands are narrow and long, and the area close to the sea is extremely wide. Therefore, I want to eat something fresh, that is, fish and shrimp in the sea and so on. I brought a little wasabi imported from Datang in my carry-on bag, caught two fish and two shrimps in the sea, and served them raw with wasabi, and wrapped them on rice balls to form today’s sushi. Eating directly is today’s sashimi.
Once some things are said to be blunt, there is nothing compelling. The reason why the Japanese formed their current eating habits was entirely due to the pressure of life and the formation of society. It was not until modern society that Japanese food was spread from Japan to all over the world, and many people liked this more natural way of eating, so the so-called Japanese food culture gradually formed.
Even the sake that the Japanese drink is actually the shochu that was drunk in ancient China. When Wu Song passed Jingyanggang, what he drank could actually be regarded as sake.
Soju in Korea is pretty much the same thing.
Outside the small store, there is a parking lot specially arranged. The parking lot is not big, and there are only seven or eight cars when it is full. Shi Lei estimates that this store not only looks small from the outside, but also must be small inside, otherwise , Such a large parking lot is not enough to park.
Even if it's just a car worth over two million yuan, and Yu is considered one of the places with the highest consumption of daily necessities in Wudong City, it can still dominate the audience. There was only one empty space left in the parking lot. The best car was around one million yuan, but four or five cars were all in the seven or eight million range.
Before Shi Lei and Wei Xingyue got off the car, the girl at the door greeted him. Seeing Shi Lei get off the car, the girl asked politely: "Hi sir, may I have your name, your reservation..."
Before she finished speaking, Wei Xingyue also got out of the car, waved her hand and said, "Xiaoju, you are my friend."
Seeing that it was Wei Xingyue, Xiaoju immediately smiled even brighter: "So it's Miss Wei and your friends, I'm sorry, sorry." She turned around and didn't ask about the reservation again, she bowed her waist and led Shi Lei and Wei Xingyue into Yu.
There is a high step at the door. After the wooden door is opened, the inside is directly higher than the ground by nearly half a meter, and the whole is a tatami-style restaurant.
Brought slippers for Shi Lei and Wei Xingyue, the girl invited them in, and then another girl inside also greeted Wei Xingyue, and continued to bring Shi Lei and Wei Xingyue inside.
Shi Lei looked back, the girl named Xiao Ju was putting their shoes into a hidden compartment next to the door.
In the innermost small box, Shi Lei and Wei Xingyue sat on the floor.
Shi Lei always felt awkward, so he asked: "Is there a small bench? It's really uncomfortable for me to sit like this."
The girl was a little embarrassed, Wei Xingyue waved her hand and said, "Open under the table."
Shi Lei didn't understand at all, but the girl knelt on the mat and pressed a button at the corner of the table. Shi Lei saw that under the table, the tatami mats that seemed to fit together were slowly retracted to the sides, forming a hollow. In this way, Shi Lei can sit at the edge of the table while putting his feet under it, no need to sit cross-legged anymore.
"Does this look like a Japanese grocery store?" Shi Lei sat down lazily. The Japanese food stores he had been to before also had this pure Japanese style, but they were all like this, with holes under the tables.
Wei Xingyue quickly ordered the dishes, and said to Shi Lei: "The wine here is precious, are you sure I can eat anything today?"
Shi Lei wondered how expensive Japanese sake can be, waved his hand and said, "Buy!"
Wei Xingyue said calmly, "Longquan."
The waiter nodded and backed out.
After she closed the door, Wei Xingyue said: "It was originally a pure Japanese style, but it was because of people like you that we had to compromise and made a hole under the table."
Shi Lei said seriously: "I'm going to educate you now, what about the Japanese style? Sixty percent of it is the style of our Tang Dynasty, and another thirty percent is the style of the Han Dynasty. What about sitting on the floor, what about sake, these are our ancestors It has been passed on, you are really a treasure. Our country has spent thousands of years, and it has finally developed from the ground to the sofa and reclining chair. You are so lucky, but you have to go back to the feudal society? The ancients knew that chairs are more comfortable than seats. , let’s have a meal, why does Mao have to suffer this? I won’t say anything else, you can say from your heart, is it more comfortable to sit like this, or to sit cross-legged?”
Shi Lei didn't give Wei Xingyue a chance to answer, but kept on talking. He finally stopped talking when the waiter served the first dish.
Wei Xingyue accepted Shi Lei's patriotic cultural education, and she was in a daze, with tears streaming down her face, Nima, I just came to have a meal with you, are you playing patriotic historical education with me?
But I have to admit that Shi Lei is right, especially the question he asked at the beginning. I am afraid that even a fool knows that sitting like this is much more comfortable than sitting cross-legged. numb.
