The customer who ordered this West Lake vinegar fish is Lou Bancheng, a regular customer of Fengze Garden.
Lou Bancheng is a native northerner. Today he came to Fengze Garden to order this West Lake vinegar fish because his daughter Lou Xiao'e wanted to try it.
When Lou Xiao'e heard her boyfriend's classmates at school talking about how magical this dish was, she became very curious and wanted to try it.
That's why she asked her father Lou Bancheng to bring her to eat this dish. Originally, Lou Bancheng wanted to go to a special Zhejiang cuisine restaurant, but at Lou Xiaoe's request, they came to Fengze Garden.
At this moment, Lou Xiao'e, Lou Bancheng and Lou's mother were waiting in the box. In addition to ordering the West Lake vinegar fish, they also ordered several of Wang Jianye's specialties.
"Little goose, you have to be prepared. Even if you are as skilled as Master Wang, the West Lake Vinegar Fish you make may not taste good."
Lou Bancheng was chatting with his daughter Lou Xiao'e.
Lou Bancheng, who is well-informed, has eaten this dish several times.
Basically, after taking the first bite, I would not take the second bite. Oh, no, I didn’t even take the first bite and I vomited directly.
"Even Master Wang can't do it right?"
Lou Xiao'e has eaten many dishes cooked by Wang Jianye, and she loves them all. She often comes to Fengze Garden for dinner, and her face has become rounder.
"Master Wang is a very good cook and can cook many dishes, but this West Lake vinegar fish is not tasty if it is cooked according to the most authentic southern method. If Master Wang cooks the most authentic West Lake vinegar fish, the taste will definitely not be much better."
Lou Bancheng didn't have no confidence in Wang Jianye, but he had no confidence in the West Lake Vinegar Fish dish. After all, the last time he ate this dish, he really vomited, leaving a deep trauma.
After hearing what Lou Bancheng said, Lou Xiao'e became even more unconvinced and she insisted on trying it.
Soon, the host served West Lake Vinegar Fish to the table first.
The color of this dish, like all the other dishes made by Wang Jianye, looks very tempting.
However, Lou Bancheng had a shadow in his heart, so he had no intention of picking up his chopsticks.
Lou Xiao'e didn't believe it. She came here specifically for this dish. She immediately picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of fish, put it in her bowl, and started eating it in small bites.
In Lou Bancheng's expectation, Lou Xiao'e would frown after tasting the West Lake Vinegar Fish for the first time, but her upbringing as a lady would not allow her to spit it out. Instead, she would grit her teeth and swallow it without taking a second bite.
But after waiting for a while, Lou Bancheng did not see any expression of displeasure on Lou Xiaoe's face.
Lou Bancheng couldn't help but ask, "What do you think of this dish?"
Lou Xiao'e nodded in satisfaction and gave a thumbs up, "Mom and Dad, this dish is really delicious. Come and try it."
"is it?"
Lou Bancheng felt strange. Why was this different from what he expected?
Out of curiosity, Lou Bancheng took a bite of West Lake Vinegar Fish...
One thing before the eyes.
It smells so good! !
"Is this the West Lake Vinegar Fish made by Master Wang? Why does it taste different from what I had in those big restaurants before?"
Lou Bancheng couldn't help but take another bite of the West Lake Vinegar Fish. It didn't have any earthy smell at all. The fish meat was very tender and had the fragrance of rice vinegar. It was very delicious. You couldn't stop eating it.
"He is worthy of being called Master Wang. No matter what dish he makes, he can turn it into something magical. It will be as delicious as you want it to be. He is amazing!!"
Lou Bancheng exclaimed sincerely. Lou Xiao'e beside him ate a few more bites of West Lake vinegar fish. She couldn't help but think of his classmate. He actually said that this dish was not delicious. Isn't this delicious? Humph, he must be lying to her again.
……
Fengzeyuan is a restaurant that mainly serves Shandong cuisine, but if customers want to eat dishes from other cuisines, Fengzeyuan can prepare them, but the price will be slightly higher.
Of course, Fengzeyuan is a high-end restaurant in the old city, and people who can come here to eat basically have some money in their pockets.
Ever since Lou Bancheng had a dish of West Lake vinegar fish cooked by Wang Jianye at Fengze Garden, many customers came to ask Wang Jianye to cook this dish so that they could taste how delicious West Lake vinegar fish is.
After all, they have all eaten the unpalatable West Lake Vinegar Fish, but they have never tasted what the delicious West Lake Vinegar Fish tastes like.
Some people, after tasting the delicious West Lake Vinegar Fish made by Wang Jianye, became curious about the authentic West Lake Vinegar Fish which is not so delicious.
Shouldn't the West Lake Vinegar Fish made by Master Wang taste like this? Why doesn't the authentic West Lake Vinegar Fish taste like this? Everyone was unconvinced and bravely tried it.
Then they saw what the legend said: the fish is fish, the vinegar is vinegar, and West Lake is West Lake. They spit it out after taking a bite, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that the West Lake vinegar fish made by Master Wang is still delicious, and this must be the authentic one.
In addition to this dish, there are many other delicacies besides West Lake Vinegar Fish that are only accepted by locals in different places but not by outsiders. Many people come to Fengze Garden and ask Wang Jianye to make one to try and let them taste how it tastes.
Don’t say that, please don’t say that.
No matter where in the country, any delicacy that only locals can accept but outsiders cannot, now in Wang Jianye's hands, it can be transformed into something magical and become very delicious, so delicious that outsiders can't put it down.
Wang Jianye's reputation became even more famous.
Many chefs from other places who specialize in making these delicacies come to Sijiu City to ask Wang Jianye for advice.
Wang Jianye taught everything he could in this regard, with almost no reservations.
No matter what dish he makes, it will become delicious because he can constantly optimize and improve these dishes to make them suitable for the tastes of more people.
Wang Jianye is able to transform some Chinese delicacies into something that can be easily accepted by many foreigners, not to mention people in China.
In the past few months, Wang Jianye's reputation has become more and more famous, attracting many foodies from all over the country.
Many people came to Beijing, wanting to try Wang Jianye’s cooking skills and see if they were as miraculous as they were said to be.
These people came with doubts, but after eating the dishes cooked by Wang Jianye, they immediately found them delicious.
After these people returned to their hometowns, they boasted to their relatives and friends about how delicious the dishes cooked by Wang Jianye were after tasting them in Beijing.
Then more people didn't believe it and made a special trip to the old city to try the dishes cooked by Wang Jianye.
After they taste it, they will naturally be very satisfied.
Some foodies are particularly fond of finding fault. If they praise Wang Jianye’s cooking as others do, wouldn’t it make them appear to be of low level?
So when they came to Fengze Garden, they made up their minds to find faults in Wang Jianye's dishes. (End of this chapter)
