I went to the century-old shop, and I was disappointed, and I really didn't want it to go downhill.
Arriving in Zhenjiang by car from Haiyan, Zhejiang Province, I stayed in the Hyatt Regency Hotel Riverview Room in the tallest building in Zhenjiang, and I was very happy, thinking that it would be more perfect to eat a local famous dish in the evening.
Earlier, I saw on the Internet that Zhenjiang Yanchun Building is a long-established brand that opened in 1896, and we chose to stay at the Hyatt Hotel for ease of access.
The Hyatt Regency is very close to the Yanchun Building, on the same side of the road, less than 100 meters away.
Its appearance is very grand, with the posture of a century-old store.
At the entrance, there is a middle-aged waitress sitting at the front desk, who does not greet guests, and does not know what she is busy with.
I asked where the meal went, she was guided to the first floor, the ordering party knew that this place is the snack department, like beijing's Huguosi snacks, we drove from Haiyan to Zhenjiang, this is the second meal of the day, there are snacks to fill the stomach, but to eat the meal to go up to the third floor.
On the third floor, I found that it was full of private rooms but there was no waiter, which made people feel overwhelmed about how to face it.
Greeted by my loud voice, a long time later appeared the waiter who led us into a large room with multiple tables.
The introduction and ordering of the three layers are all slowly steaming.
After ordering, I found that there was no kettle and cup to drink, and waited for the waiter to come in five minutes.
A Zhenjiang Mandarin accent, the attitude is very good, in the face of everyone's dissatisfaction, still mildly apologized: upstairs she is busy alone.
After a few dishes are served, the appearance is very disappointing.
Only the dish of meat is still OK.
The dish is finally on the table, I really dare not compliment, it is indeed too far from the reputation of the century-old store.
Some of the dishes on the menu are more expensive than the snack mark on the first floor, the 100-knot roast meat is not as good as the home cooking, and other dishes are also average.
It was too disappointing for those of us who had come to Beijing from afar.
The plan to come here tomorrow for breakfast and eat pot noodles was canceled because of this unpleasant meal.
At eight o'clock in the evening, I returned to the hotel after dinner, went out for a walk, and found that the Yanchun Restaurant had turned off the lights and closed.
A century-old shop really shouldn't be like this.
