When the waiter saw Shen Yu and other Chinese faces,

He immediately stepped forward,

He said with a smile in Chinese,

"Welcome, what can I do for you?"

Hearing these familiar words,

Whether it was Shen Yu, Luo Zhi or the others, they all had a smile on their faces.

After finding a vacant private room and sitting down,

Shen Yu took the menu from the waiter and took a look at it, the smile on his face became even wider.

This time it is not like the last Chinese restaurant that needed to cater to American tastes and make so-called fortune cookies.

This restaurant is an authentic Sichuan restaurant.

The customers they cater to are mostly Chinese people in Chinatown, so the food is naturally the flavor that Shen Yu and others are familiar with.

After glancing at the menu,

Shen Yu directly ordered several dishes, all of which were Hunan specialties.

Such as fried pork with peppers, twice-cooked pork, spicy chicken, mapo tofu, etc.

Then he handed the menu to Luo Zhi and others.

After Luo Zhi, Ji Shuyi and the others picked up one or two dishes they liked, they handed the menus to Taylor and Jenna beside them.

After Taylor took the menu, he and Jenna looked at the names of the dishes.

Because the menu was also marked in English, the two of them had no language barriers.

But inevitably, there were still some problems.

After a moment, Taylor looked at Shen Yu, his eyes full of hesitation to speak.

He stopped himself from speaking, then looked at Shen Yu nervously, and said softly and cautiously,

"Shen Yu, this Fuqi Feipian...is it really made from the lungs of a married couple? This is illegal!"

Jenna on the side also looked at Shen Yu with concern.

Shen Yu was stunned for a moment when he heard this.

After he realized what was happening, he burst out laughing, and Luo Zhi and the others beside him couldn't help laughing as well.

I don’t know how our ancestors named these dishes.

The name of this dish is indeed quite ambiguous.

The literal translation is indeed quite scary, and it's no wonder that Taylor and Jenner got it wrong.

Anyone who hasn't heard of it would feel a little chilling.

Shen Yu explained with a smile,

"It's just a name. It's not really made with the couple's lungs. It's actually a cold dish made with beef, tripe, and other ingredients. It tastes very good. You can try it too."

After hearing what Shen Yu said,

Taylor and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and then saw the next dish.

His whole body trembled suddenly, and the expression on his face failed in an instant.

Jenna made a bitter face and asked tentatively,

"Um, Shen Yu...what's this about ants climbing a tree?"

Shen Yu explained with a smile,

"The phrase 'ants climbing a tree' is just an exaggeration. The main ingredients of this dish are minced pork and vermicelli made from sweet potato starch. The minced meat is densely attached to the vermicelli, just like ants climbing on a tree branch, hence the name 'ants climbing a tree'."

Upon hearing this, the two girls thought about it in their minds and nodded thoughtfully.

The two of them ordered these two dishes.

They continued to look at the menu and discussed in low voices.

A few minutes later, the two closed the menu.

Taylor then smiled and said,

"Give me another serving of tiger skin chili peppers. To be honest, this is my first time eating tiger skin, so I don't know how it tastes."

After hearing what Taylor said,

Shen Yu and others could no longer bear it and burst into laughter.

Even the waiter beside him couldn't help laughing.

But because of work, it was extremely difficult to endure. He tried frantically to control the expression on his face, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

Taylor saw that she had just finished speaking.

Shen Yu and the others burst into laughter, and a pink color suddenly appeared on her pretty face.

Somewhat shyly said,

"What are you laughing at? Was what I said just now wrong?"

Fortunately, Luo Zhi and the others were very sensible and quickly stopped smiling.

Then Luo Zhi smiled and explained to Taylor and the others,

"The tiger skin in this tiger skin pepper is not real tiger skin, but the pattern on the pepper's skin after being fried in the pan is somewhat similar to that of a tiger, so this dish is called tiger skin pepper."

After hearing this, Taylor's face turned red as if blood was dripping out.

Only then did she realize that she had embarrassed herself again, in front of her crush.

Jenna couldn't help but sigh when she heard this.

"The names of your Chinese dishes are really surprising. No wonder the Chinese restaurants we went to before didn't have these dishes. It's really too troublesome to explain this."

Taylor nodded.

"Yes, if it weren't for your explanation, I would have called out to Fo Bole when I saw that dish of Fuqi Feipian."

Luo Zhi and others didn't know how to answer, they could only say that their ancestors' naming was very artistic.

Shen Yu finally handed the menu to the waiter.

Intimate advice,

"Brother, please ask the kitchen to use less chili peppers in our dishes because some people in the south can't handle spicy food."

The waiter smiled and nodded.

Then he took the menu and walked to the kitchen.

Embarrassment comes quickly and goes away quickly.

After a while, Taylor and Jenna forgot the embarrassment just now and became excited again.

They have lived in New York for such a long time,

I thought I was very familiar with New York.

The result was unexpected.

I just served as a guide for Shen Yu, but I ended up having more fun than Shen Yu and the others.

This Chinatown is really like a treasure.

Every snack stall is exceptionally delicious, and the dazzling array of snacks makes it impossible to stop eating, nor do you want to stop.

The two excitedly talked about what they saw and heard.

Luo Zhi, Ji Shuyi and others smiled and added some things that they had a slightly different understanding of.

The group got along very harmoniously.

Jenna and Taylor are even more blunt,

They must visit Chinatown more often in the future, as the snacks have completely conquered them.

Not long after,

The waiter came over with the food they had just ordered.

Looking at these delicious dishes,

Everyone's eyes, including Shen Yu, suddenly lit up.

Shen Yu and others haven't eaten authentic Sichuan cuisine for a long time and miss it very much.

Taylor and Jenna simply had never eaten it.

Do not,

I haven't seen it.

The desire in his eyes could no longer be suppressed.

Shen Yu was also a little impatient. After seeing that the dishes and rice were all served, he immediately said,

"Everyone, eat it while it's hot."

After saying that, he picked up the chopsticks and took the lead in picking up the twice-cooked pork.

You should know that twice-cooked pork is known as the top Sichuan dish, also known as fried pork in oil.

Most families in Sichuan Province make it. It is a homely but very delicious dish.

This dish is also very interesting when translated into English.

It's called "dish cooked for the second time".
