Speaking of braised chicken, in recent years, stores of braised chicken can be seen everywhere on the street. As long as there is no shortage of customers selling braised chicken, sometimes when you meet a meal, you can't even find a seat in the store, which is particularly popular. There are also some takeaways, and the first thing many people want to order is braised chicken. This attractive braised chicken is so awesome in the catering industry that many restaurants have to change their signs and start the business of braised chicken.
But now it is found that there are fewer and fewer restaurants selling braised chicken, and only a few small restaurants are selling it. Some sellers of braised chicken are not the main push, but just one choice among many meals. It seems very cold. What's going on here?
I remember traveling abroad last year, and I was exhausted after playing all day. I really don't want to go out looking for food. I just ordered a takeaway with my mobile phone. After searching for a long time, I ordered a braised chicken, thinking that I hadn't eaten it for a long time and thought it was still the original taste. But as a result, when I received the takeaway and opened the lid, I saw that the seller had no appetite at all, and there was a fishy smell. I hardly regret it. Super bad, this braised chicken can only be thrown in.
After returning home, I specially observed the restaurants on the street. There used to be at least four or five braised chickens in a street, but now there is none. Once I went to Shaxian snack for dinner, I found a braised chicken in his house, but almost no one ate it.
Why do fewer and fewer people like to eat braised chicken that was once all the rage? Through my own experience and observation, and asking people around me, it is not difficult to get some answers. These three reasons are very real.
First of all, the price of braised chicken is relatively expensive and the weight is small.
I ordered a large order of braised chicken last year, 22 yuan. Afraid that two people can't eat enough, I ordered a few side dishes, potatoes, bean skin and mushrooms. I calculated it, almost 30 yuan. I thought anything could be served as long as it was delicious and heavy, but I didn't expect it to be neither delicious nor light, so I dared to sell such a dish at such an expensive price. As long as I order it once, I won't order it again.
Braised chicken belongs to the category of snacks and fast food. Some workers and students mostly buy, so the price is unacceptable to them. No matter how small it is, who wants to eat it? It's better to spend money on other things, or save some money, or be full or eat better.
No matter who buys things, they love to buy the most affordable ones. Braised chicken is not an affordable type, so it is not difficult to understand that there are fewer and fewer people who love to eat.
No matter what the smell is, there are too many imitations.
When the braised chicken first appeared, it was exactly the same as the picture taken. The color is red and bright, which makes people drool and tastes really good. The chicken is tender and delicious, and the soup with rice is simply not enough. Even the rice is memorable, and the more you chew, the more fragrant it is.
It is too difficult to find an authentic braised chicken now, so it can be said that there is no more. The yellow chicken we ate last year should be colorless, tasteless and odorless. Even soup is not called soup, like water. Chicken is tasteless and wood is fishy. Side dishes are also hastily processed, just like boiling water and pouring it directly into the chicken, which tastes as bad.
Huang-ji was once a smash hit. Many people wanted to make money like Huang-ji, thinking that a signboard was enough, but they forgot to improve their cooking skills. After eating it, they wouldn't go there again. Slowly, people were completely disappointed with Huang Ji, too many imitations smashed the signboard, and fewer and fewer people liked to eat.
There is also poor ingredients, and more frozen chickens are used.
Many people find that braised chicken tastes worse than before. In fact, this problem is mostly caused by poor ingredients. How to make delicious taste with bad ingredients?
Many braised chicken shops use frozen chicken as ingredients, because it is cheap and can earn more, so for us, the price has not dropped, but the taste has become worse. In this case, naturally no one wants to eat any more. Instead of spending this money on stale chicken, it is better to spend more money on other things.
These three reasons are very real. You must have experienced them yourself. Do you have any other opinions? Welcome to share comments.
