Jiang Ran also didn’t want to order, so she handed the nu to Pei Yang and Pei Shanshan.
"Pei Yang, Shanshan, take a look and order whatever you feel like eating first."
Wang Cuilan quickly added, "Don’t order too much, in case we can’t finish it, that would be wasteful."
Dining here must be expensive, so it’s better to order as much as we can eat to avoid wasting money.
Pei Yang agreed and already opened the nu.
Pei Shanshan leaned beside Pei Yang, also looking at the nu.
Pei Yang was very serious about it, and his pace of ordering was not fast.
Listening to Pei Yang carefully considering each dish before naming it, Jiang Ran could sowhat guess what he was thinking.
He’s thinking of ordering delicious dishes and also ones he hasn’t seen before.
After all, trying sothing one hasn’t eaten is a chef’s personal cultivation.
After Pei Yang finished ordering the dishes, he handed the nu to Pei Shanshan.
This restaurant doesn’t just serve Peking duck; it has all sorts of other dishes and of course, desserts too.
Since Pei Yang had already finished ordering dishes, the task of ordering desserts was left to Pei Shanshan.
Pei Shanshan hadn’t tried desserts from beishi before, and she found all the desserts on the nu quite novel.
After staring at them for a while, she carefully chose two.
Mainly because Pei Yang had already ordered quite a few dishes, if she ordered too many desserts, they might really not be able to finish them.
They could want desserts, but it wasn’t necessary to order them here.
Previously, Jiang Ran had already discussed with Pei Shanshan, telling her they could go out to buy desserts.
Beishi does have quite a few old dessert shops.
The business in those shops is also very good.
While waiting for the food, they chatted casually, occasionally looking outside.
Even though the room door was closed, they could occasionally hear people talking outside, probably new custors arriving and heading to the private dining rooms.
The serving speed here was quite fast; they didn’t wait long before the dishes were brought out.
The Peking duck was wheeled over on a small cart, and it was sliced right in front of them.
Carving a Peking duck is also a skilled job, not sothing just anyone can start doing right away.
Jiang Ran certainly could do it, but since she was there to eat, she couldn’t possibly try.
Others watched for fun, but only Pei Yang watched intently.
By the end, Pei Yang’s eager expression almost made Jiang Ran suspect he would want to stand up and try.
Fortunately, Pei Yang managed to restrain himself and didn’t actually stand up.
After the duck was carved, it was placed on the table with stead pancakes, shredded scallions, cucumber strips, and dipping sauces.
There were two kinds of dipping sauces; one was sowhat like sweet bean sauce, not spicy but tastier than sweet bean sauce.
The other one was a spicy sauce.
However, with Peking duck, it’s better to enjoy it without spiciness to fully appreciate its natural flavor.
The freshly roasted Peking duck had a crispy skin, and the at inside was tender and soft.
Wrapped in a pancake with so shredded scallions and cucumber, it had a rich texture and offered great satisfaction to the taste buds.
The remaining duck fra also wouldn’t go to waste.
The restaurant could turn it into a pepper-salt flavor or use it to make soup.
Anyway, with so many people, they had enough for two ducks; it was just right to try each cooking thod.
The dishes here were also beautifully presented.
When served, they were not only pleasing to the eye but also left one unsure of where to start eating.
Of course, they were not just about looks; they were exquisitely presented and really tasted good as well.
At the end, sipping a bowl of old duck soup and enjoying a few pieces of dessert served as a fitting conclusion to the al.
