The dipping dish for cold pot fish is usually kohlrabi granules, plus crispy soybeans, coriander green onion and minced garlic, and then two spoonfuls of the original soup bottom of the pot, the taste is perfect.
Before I came to Chengdu, I could say that I didn¡¯t drink at all. Except for the time I graduated from high school and drank some beer, I didn¡¯t drink alcohol on weekdays.
And to be honest, I don't drink too much.
The current drinking capacity, let alone how good it is, I am serious, at least half of the people here can't drink me.
This is thanks to my deskmate - Zheng Xiaolong.
Xiaolong is addicted to alcohol and is almost invincible.
However, it also scores points.
Most people don't drink, or drink less.
Only when I sit with friends I recognize will I let go of the drink.
This can also be regarded as a characteristic of Xiaolong.
Some time ago, we moved to a new campus to attend classes.
It is indeed much bigger than the old campus. There are two teaching buildings and a big playground. Can play basketball, can also play football. The new campus is further away from the dormitory, and it is convenient to go back and forth.
Not long after I came to the new campus, I was dragged by Zheng Xiaolong to a nearby restaurant in the name of not attending classes in the afternoon, and began to exercise my drinking capacity.
On the right side of the school, there is a row of low old residential buildings.
Judging from the low shape of the house, the large asbestos tiles on the top, and the wooden pillars, the house must have a history of at least thirty years.
As an area to be demolished, it may not be long before it will disappear from our eyes.
However, this does not affect the deliciousness hidden in it at all! There is a maocai here without a signature, and the taste is quite overbearing!
According to the boss, "They have been setting up a stall here to sell fake vegetables since more than 20 years ago. Because it is their own house, there is no need to pay rent, so the price of fake vegetables is also cheap."
A vegetable dish for five yuan, a small basket to pack by yourself. As long as it fits, you can choose as many dishes as you like.
Lotus root slices, lettuce, potatoes, tofu, bean sprouts, vermicelli, and all kinds of vegetarian dishes were newly bought by the boss from the vegetable market that morning. It is less than 500 meters away from Tianya Vegetable Market, so the freshness of the dishes is guaranteed.
The boss is responsible for buying vegetables, and the boss's parents are responsible for washing and cutting vegetables. The proprietress is responsible for the maocai and the control of the taste.
The family relied on this to conquer the nearby neighbors.
It is said that the price has not changed much for more than 20 years.
The meat dishes are also very rich, such as ribs, shrimp dumplings, beef, fatty intestines, these can be said to be the must-try meat dishes here, and the taste is amazing!
Originally, we only had classes for half a day. After school at noon, there was a cafeteria in the old campus. It was relatively close, and there were many choices of food. The key point was that it was cheap.
On the new campus, side dishes and pasta are the main dishes. The richness of the dishes has dropped a lot, and the price is also expensive, so I really want to go home to buy vegetables and cook.
However, Xiaolong usually asks me to eat maocai.
One is that Maocai is cheap, and he can drink a bottle of beer by the way, and the other is that he lives so far away, it is unrealistic to go back to eat. So basically I hang out with him at noon.
Gradually, the two of us felt that the maocai tasted good and the price was cheap, so we publicized it in the class and brought Xiao Yule, Liu Chen, and Xiao Xie in by the way.
So our small team is basically fixed at five people.
Five people, three vegetarian dishes, two meat dishes, and two bottles of beer for one person, it was a great meal.
And the price is also cheap, ten yuan for meat dishes, five yuan for vegetarian dishes, and four yuan for beer. The total cost is generally between 70 and 80 yuan, and the per capita consumption is 15 yuan!
Fifteen yuan, being able to drink and eat meat, it's incredible to think about it!
Even I have doubted many times whether the boss can make money?
However, every time I saw that the business here was booming, I stopped asking.
In other words, if I do a part-time job with the boss, learn a craft or something, I wonder if he will agree?
Maocai is the taste of traditional Chengdu Maocai, without those fancy additives. It is the soup base of the hot pot maocai, which is not particularly fragrant, nor is it very spicy.
But every time after eating, you will not be thirsty or have diarrhea, and the dishes are fresh, the secret of the boss seems to be here.
Before Xiaolong and I went to another street to eat other maocai, the potatoes and lotus root slices there were very thinly sliced. I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s for the taste or to save costs. It¡¯s incomparable with the ones here.
Including lettuce, all flaky dishes are thick slices to ensure that the dishes are cooked and taste more solid than thin slices.
We usually ask the boss to help us choose the vegetarian dishes. They are regular customers. The boss knows that we don¡¯t eat certain dishes, so he is familiar with the way to help pick the vegetables. It will not give you a few slices because of whether it is a new customer or not. It has always been down-to-earth to make tastes.
Although the meat dishes are cheap, ten yuan a piece, the quantity of pork ribs and fatty intestines is also very substantial. The small ribs alone cost more than ten yuan.
Each meat dish is served with mung bean sprouts at the bottom, so if you order a meat dish alone, you will be full.
Many students in our class like to come here to eat. A bowl of white rice with a vegetarian dish costs 6 yuan. It is very comfortable to eat, and it is much cheaper than that in the old campus.
Occasionally, when you are hungry, order another meat dish to satisfy your hunger.
That is to say, from this time on, I never drank alcohol, and was brought by Xiaolong to drink beer. One bottle, two bottles, three bottles, gradually increasing.
Whenever I refuse and don't want to drink, Xiaolong will use a unique trick.
"Brother Tao, let me tell you, when I was in high school"
"There is a guy from the northeast in our class, that's called a drinker!"
"One time we had a dinner party and tried to persuade him to drink. At that time, he was relatively low-key, so he didn't drink much, but he didn't shirk it. He just drank casually anyway."
"I was followed by another person in the class, who also drank. At that time, I came to find him one-on-one. As a result, the one in the northeast directly asked for beer for liquor. That kid drank 2 catties of liquor at a time! At that time, the other Baby drank it and dumped it under the table."
"From then on, he became famous in the first battle, and no one in our class dared to ask him for a drink."
"I have a good relationship with him, and we often drink together. He brought me out."
"Oh, Brother Tao, let me tell you, drinking means throwing up, throw up a few more times, get used to it, and the capacity for drinking will naturally increase."
As soon as Xiaolong got drunk, his words became more unrestrained, but I was also happy to hear him set up these dragon formations and hear about his past.
Good buddy, isn't it just approaching step by step like this?
I just don't know how long this Maocai restaurant can last? Will it last until we graduate?
In other words, today's cold pot fish is also awesome. The 9 of us have added fish no less than ten times in total. I guess the boss's face is green, right?
