For the first meal in autumn, Ai Mili said he would take me something warm

Drive along 880 to an exit that you have never made before

Turning into a door is Taco Bell, inside is the plaza of Home Depot

...It doesn't look like a place to eat seriously

She pointed to a small shop and said: This is it

When I got out of the car, I thought to myself, it's over, won't you bring me to step on the thunder

As soon as I entered the store, my eyes suddenly brightened and opened up

My favorite IKEA straw chandelier fell from the ceiling

The dark industrial-style wall is also the IKEA wall-mounted table lamp I have been planting for a long time.

Light wood tables and chairs are the favorite cold breeze of young people nowadays

Designed armchair, simple and calm booth

This second impression after entering the store suddenly regained a city

The menu continues the tone of decoration

At first glance I thought it was a home magazine

First drink

This dreamy color, although beautiful + cool

But, I hesitate... it's not about drinking pigment...

Fortunately, this tea is detailed on the menu

Butterfly Bean Flower

Pure natural pigments commonly used in Southeast Asia

Soaking up is such a coquettish blue

Add sour lemon juice, it will turn purple

Butterfly pea flower tea itself has no obvious taste

Mainly the color looks good

One cup is based on grapefruit tea

There is also transparent but Q-flavored peach gum inside

The main body of the other cup is chia seed and aiyu jelly

The blue cup has coconut milk and a little vanilla

Next is the appetizer

This shop focuses on Cantonese and Southeast Asian cuisine

There are strong and spicy, but also warm and light

The portions are relatively small, mainly for the rest of the meal~

But then it turns out that we ordered a bit too much......_(:зゝ∠)_

Braised Pork Ribs with Shacha Sauce in Claypot

I thought it would be salty, but the entrance feels milder

Shacha flavor is sufficient, and other spices such as soy sauce are not used to overwhelm the guests

So it won’t feel too strong if you just eat it empty

Borneo Coconut Milk Chicken

Coconut milk and small-cut boiled taro together create a creamy taste

The soup base is delicious

The chicken nuggets inside are slightly sweet, and it also comes with the original flavor of chicken soup

Suitable for foodies who have light taste and like Southeast Asian cuisine

(PS Ai Mi Li especially likes this bowl)

Crab Roe and Shrimp Stuffed Beans

It's kind of like the shrimp slippery shrimp balls in a hot pot restaurant

Make a circle of long beans underneath, and fry them on both sides until golden, and then add the sauce

When eating, you should dip it in the golden sand next to it, which is fried and crispy garlic cubes.

Compared with other dishes, the prawns are firm and crispy, and the beans are smooth and greasy.

Malt Golden Sand Tofu

This dish is said to be very popular and I like it

You may ask

"Fried tofu coated with maltose and coated with garlic?

What is this operation? Can it be delicious? Still sticking to the plate..."

Actually, when I eat, I don’t even realize that the outer layer is sugar.

The full sand and the sugar coating blend into one, just feel like a crispy skin

The inside is smooth and tender tofu. Be careful when you eat it.

Grilled prawns and seafood with sambal sauce

When the proprietress served the dish, she said it was the best-selling dish since opening

Many foreigners pass by the door nearby, come in and try

I am not familiar with Cantonese and Southeast Asian cuisine, so I dare not order

But seafood on the big plate is the universal language of food all over the world

Stir-fry with sambal sauce from Nyonya cuisine

The heavy sweet and spicy taste slowly climbs to the tip of the tongue

It's a bit like Korean spicy chicken noodles, but not as exaggerated as spicy

Have fun with fresh big shrimp, mussels and squid!

Baked Rice Cake with Cheese and Bacon

A Korean + Western dish

Compared with other dishes, the craftsmanship is very simple

The expectation was very low, but I found it in my mouth

Today’s bowl of this rice cake is cooked just hard, not hard or sticky

Cheese flavor, bacon and bacon shreds, and chicken broth flavor

If you bring children with you, don’t eat too spicy or salty

You can order a cheese rice cake to ensure you are full

Crispy Soft Shell Crab

The soft shell crab I ate for the first time that year was very small

I thought it was a special crab variety

Today I found out that I could grow so big? !

Aimi told me that soft shell crabs are actually just a form of crabs

A crab has to go through 13 shell changes in its life, and it is a soft shell crab when it changes shell.

After the noodles are fried, the whole crab can be eaten

The white crab meat in the body is very tender and big

The crab legs and crab claws are crispy, so you don't have to gnaw the crab legs hard at last!

Finally, the appetizer and main course were almost eaten, and two pots came—

One is milky white soup basePork belly chicken

Guangdong’s Dabu famous dish is suitable for autumn fat

The pork belly is resilient and the chicken is tender

Even if you don’t like boiled pork belly and chicken, you must drink this soup

Fresh, that is expected, no need to go into details

A girl who has been busy in the shop came over and asked: Do I need to add some pepper?

Only then did I realize that the soup does have the special spicy flavor of pepper

But on the contrary, it’s used for refreshing, so I don’t feel irritating.

The sister paper said that the pepper was added a lot before, but the guests said it was too spicy

So now it’s adding less and less, so little that she feels a little insufficient

"So the pork belly chicken needs a lot of pepper?"

"Uh, not really, but I like to add a lot of peppers = ="

(It was only then that it was written "White Pepper King Pork Belly Chicken Pot")

Tell me about the sister-in-law of Hong Kong Pu, who turned out to be the boss’s daughter

Same age as us, so we started talking

She claims to be a stove madman, so she can eat hot pot while doing her homework

She also strictly controls the store at home, so she has a lot of pepper in the pork belly...

By the way, she is a design professional, no wonder the decor is so tasteful

After drinking pork belly chicken soup, there is still a pot on the table that can be poured into the pot

After it is boiled, you can cook the meat and vegetables~

The two-person set meal provided in the store (also enough for three small stomach diners to share)

Contains a fat beef, a large plate of seafood, and a vegetable platter

The dipping sauce for Shabu-Shabu is also very Cantonese

The black one is the seasoned soy sauce, the yellow one is the satay sauce

There are also garlic, chili, green onion, coriander, you can mix and match

The Hong Kong friend who went with said that the satay sauce has the feeling of curry fish balls, and even eaten a wave of memories.

I glanced at the menu, the price of this hot pot set meal is not low

My sister paper is also a little embarrassed, but she still patiently tells us

The quality of the ingredients and the skill of making the soup are the best

"Even the supplier said that they had never seen us like this, and asked if there was anything more expensive."

"Choosing this relatively biased shop is also to rent out the shop and buy some good ingredients."

With these words, we can eat sincerity from the steamed meat and seafood

But just like the store’s control of pepper, everyone’s experience and feeling are always very different

So she also reminded us that if the food served is not satisfactory

Be sure to tell the waiter and bring it back to the kitchen to adjust

In the end, although we were full, the store insisted on asking us to try the chicken pot

Pork belly chicken is also available on the menu. It is a set meal with good meat, seafood and vegetables.

The last time I went to a certain store to eat chicken pot, I returned home in a hurry, the chicken was too firewood and the portion was slightly less

But as soon as the lid of this pot of chicken was opened, the fragrance made me decide to try another piece at the risk of death.

Like the chicken nuggets in pork belly chicken, it is tender!

The sauce is thick, and every piece of chicken is topped

It's already cooked before serving, and it's delicious, spicy

The store said that it’s not really a chicken pot in Shenzhen and Hong Kong.

So it’s not written on the menu

But my principle of eating has always been, don’t worry about whether it’s authentic or not, it’s delicious.

At least the taste and texture have won my heart~

Lesson learned: next time you must eat chicken pot

Add soup to the side dishes, rinse them all out and eat them clean

Seriously, this is the first big tonic in autumn, I have a very happy meal

Take another sip of pork belly chicken soup, wipe your mouth, and feel the beautiful aftertaste

The wallet may be a little painful, but if it’s with good friends, family, important people

If it is to share delicious and nutritious food

Then the money is spent, nothing wrong!
