Shantou Bahe Lihaiji's reputation in today's industry can be described as thunderous, and many people are fascinated by the beef hot pot of Bahe Lihaiji. The head office in Shantou has been interviewed by a number of food media for many years, and there is an endless stream of customers coming and going. CCTV documentary "A Bite of China", CCTV10 "Taste" column, CCTV7 "Local" column, Hong Kong Asia Television, "Food and Wine" magazine, "Olive Restaurant Review" magazine have all visited this beef hot pot restaurant. Not only that, the famous gourmand Cai Lan, the international food critic Cai Hao, the well-known food editor Yan Qiao, and the Shantou foodie Zhang Xinmin, who is known as the "Chaoshan Food Living Dictionary", also praised the Bahe Caspian Sea. In each branch, diners can see the neat and crisp figure of the master of Baheli dissecting the beef. This is also one of the characteristics of the Eight Layers of Caspian Kee, each master has at least 4 years of work experience, and can handle different parts of the beef well, but the presentation is not delicate enough. Before the meal, the waiter will not remind customers to drink a bowl of beef hot pot consommé first, which is not a problem for regular customers, but it is not friendly enough for customers who are new to Chaoshan beef hot pot restaurant. However, the store will indicate the type of meat and the best time to shake the meat on the plate, which is much more intimate than many local stores in Guangdong. Seasoning is a common form of self-service, and there are many more choices than the seasoning stations in Guangzhou. Among them, the taste of sand tea is quite delicious, rich and sweet, and the mixture with the freshly soaked beef slices can be described as sweet and sweet, and there is a long aftertaste. In order to take care of the taste of the northerners, the store also provides sesame paste, which can be regarded as a novel flavor when combined. There is an introduction to how to match small ingredients on the small material table, and it is recommended to try it newly. During the hit of "Twelve Sharp Flavors", Nicholas Tse also took his friends to the main store of Bahe Caspian to learn art. Its meat is firm and elastic, the taste is fine, crisp and refreshing, and the beef flavor is rich, quite punctual, so I have to try it. There are quite a variety of beef in the store, but there are fewer necks and breasts, and diners are on a first-come, first-served basis. The hanging dragon companion in the store, because of some fat, is more fragrant than the hanging dragon, the meat is tender and smooth, and the juice is full. Also worth trying is the five-toe, a well-textured piece of beef hind leg tendon that is cut into moderately thin slices by the chef of Haga Caspian Kee. Diners gently soak for about 8 seconds, the taste is crispy and elastic, with a refreshing meridian feeling, and the chewed meat is fragrant and fragrant. Dong Keping, a food consultant for the CCTV documentary "A Bite of China", couldn't help but praise "Eating Haiji beef hot pot restaurant means that one person has to eat an average of 6 plates". Although the Legend of the Caspian Sea originated in Shantou, it really started in Shenzhen. With excellent supply chain management, Bahe Lihaiji has successfully made Chaoshan beef hot pot out of Chaoshan. In Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Dongguan, Zhongshan and other cities in Guangdong Province, Baheli has its own slaughterhouse, and rents land in the meat factory, which is operated by its own employees, so that the beef of each branch is more authentic and uniform in taste. The slaughtering time is allocated according to the meal, and it is guaranteed that it does not take more than 3 hours from slaughter to the table. There are a total of three deliveries a day in the morning, noon and evening, which largely ensures the "original taste" of the beef. Outside Guangdong Province, officials have invested in several bases in Guizhou and Inner Mongolia, and there are strict controls on cattle from birth, rearing, and release. However, due to the small customer flow of the Beijing branch, it is not necessarily in strict accordance with the three times of delivery, and the stability of the product will be inferior to that of Shantou Shenzhen stores. Among the several Bahe Lihai Ji branches in Beijing, the Qinghe store is undoubtedly one of the more outstanding. Qinghe store is located near Xiaoying Bridge, a relatively remote auxiliary road of G6 National Highway. On the exterior wall of the restaurant, there is a three-dimensional decoration with the characteristics of Chaoshan traditional houses, which makes Chaoshan people think of traditional Chaoshan buildings such as "Xiashan Tiger", "Three Walls Connection", "Four Points of Gold", "Five Rooms", "Four Horse Trailers", "Hundred Birds and Phoenix". Entering the store, the atmosphere is decent, but the exquisite decoration style can still win the favor of customers. This is also where Shantou's native Bahe Caspian Haiji needs to be entered—almost every branch is more refined than the main store. The BGM of classic Teochew dramas has been playing in the lobby of Qinghe store, constantly rendering the charm of Chaoshan. The seats are more exquisite, there are two kinds of card seats and square platforms, but some seats do not match the height and are not comfortable. The Bahe Caspian Sea reveals the local hospitality characteristics of Chaoshan everywhere, but the service quality of the waiters is really criticized. If you are a veteran Chaoshan food lover, then Bahe Caspian is worth a try.
