When we arrived in Manchester, it was raining heavily. What was it for? Just these red tile brick walls?

It is said that the corner meets love, which is true! My wife is not proficient in other English, but when she sees the huge hot pot sign, she can blurt it out loudly! ! I didn't expect to meet true love when I first arrived in Manchester city!

Following the familiar smell, we soon found the entrance. But looking at the menu at the door is nothing more than a hodgepodge of major domestic cuisines, which was not very attractive at first; What about the hot pot? I was not satisfied, so I went in alone to find out.

As soon as I entered the door, I found that my body was out of control: my upper and lower lips kept turning, saliva poured from all directions in my mouth to both sides of my tongue, and my nose was breathing the pungent smell in the air … Oh, my God! Didn't you just leave Chengdu for a week? Dude, you can't escape from your stomach! Looking at all the people in the hall in twos and threes are face of china, sitting in a steaming place, talking and laughing, eating and drinking, which really makes people feel kind! You can understand how I feel when I stand next to them and look at the dishes in their pots.

I'll go out and discuss it with the leader. Why don't I eat here? When we calculate the price, if we eat in China, the meat and vegetables will add up to more than 30 pounds, not counting drinking-this is equivalent to our ordinary three-day diet standard. While we were hesitating whether to go or not, a group of people came out of the door and passed by us-it felt like a group of pork belly just fished out of the pot, and it was very happy to eat! So we looked at each other and opened the door again!

"How many of you?"

"Two!"

"Sit inside. This way, please Please sit down! Here is the menu. Take a look at it first ... "

Familiar routines and positions.

We looked at the menu, and the price figures were very small, 2-3 kinds of vegetables, 6-8 kinds of meat dishes and 3-5 kinds of beer. feel fine! But please multiply this number by 8.8 and convert it. Does it feel different right away? Whatever! I spent all my time on the bus today, and I won't exceed my budget for a meal. Eat!

So we started to quickly tick the menu and changed the five squares in his shop into red and white squares, you know!

In the long process of waiting for the waiter to pass the food, we can't wait to soak in the food, pour beer and brew our mood! And the background music is playing Jacky Cheung's "If this is love ..."

A century passed, two centuries passed, and finally the goddess-like waiter sent the delicious food to the front. What do you think of the quality of this dish? Guess what this white one is? The first person who answers correctly will give you a small red envelope of 6.6! )

Before the pot boiled, I had to sip my mouth silently and watch the people at the next table eat, drink and make eyes at each other-although the two people sitting behind me look like China people, they have been speaking English. Boys tell many interesting things to amuse girls; Girls sound like Chinese Americans-because I've never heard of girls in China who speak English so fluently, haha!

After waiting anxiously for 30 seconds, I ran to the seasoning table several times. Sometimes I add a little onion and garlic, sometimes I grab a little coriander, and then I add a little Chili oil every once in a while. . .

Finally, the party started! ! !

With the increase of temperature, the inside of the pot has begun to roll; Quickly throw the mutton slices into the pot, and after 30 seconds, they have become my bowl; Wrapped in sesame oil, garlic, Chili sauce, vinegar and coriander, stuffed with a mouthful; In the process of chewing, the cells of the meat began to tear, and my spirit began to split-although I left China for a short time, I ate several hot pots before I left. Nowadays, the food in Britain is not bad, but when the really familiar hometown flavor hits, we have no resistance at all.

We didn't talk to each other, and soon we began to sweat: at first, we sweated at the tip of our nose, then on our foreheads, and then we began to sweat, but it seemed to be just a warm-up announcement.

We walked back and forth to the seasoning table, and I dug up garlic, coriander and chopped green onion ... finally, I looked at the Chili oil and wanted to pack it and take it away. It is really worthless.

In less than 40 minutes, everyone is still eating, and our table is already like this. ...

At this moment, my mouth is as drunk as Chili oil beer that I have been drinking for a long time. Although I am numb, my consciousness is still awake. This intense taste stimulation makes people infatuated and nostalgic.

"There is another leaf here, do you want it!"

"Give it to me!"

The last piece of vegetables on the plate was gently put into the red pot, gently put into the bowl, and then slowly put into my mouth to enjoy the last precious moment.

Finally, I became immortal in this taste encounter!

After enjoying the feast, we took a bus to Airbnb's residence today. The owner's name is hippo chef, Malaysian. Yes, that's how his name is spelled! Didn't it mean to keep me awake tonight? I remember the hippopotamus chef was like this. ...
