I Have Objections

When it was time to order food, Gu Nianzhi was still distracted.

Ma Qiqi wanted to remind her, but Yin Shixiong shot her a look and whispered, "Don't disturb her. It's fine if we order ourselves."

The Tan family's restaurant prepared famous aristocratic cuisine for imperial officials. They were known for cooking all sorts of dried and fresh seafood, and were especially renowned for shark fin. They could have essentially written a book about 108 ways to cook shark fin.

Yin Shixiong began by ordering appetizers: stir-fried duck liver, oysters with vermicelli and garlic, and five-spice anchovies. Then he ordered braised shark fin in white wine sauce as the main course.

Braised shark fin in white wine sauce was made using free-range, yellow hens. The chicken was nearly cooked into liquid and coupled with the rich, smooth shark fin. The dish was fresh, soft, and not too heavy.
