Hangzhou is a city with a large number of crayfish sales in China, and there are many crayfish lovers, while hundreds of crayfish restaurants compete here. And the lobster and crab restaurant is undoubtedly the most outstanding representative.
It needs to be reminded here that crayfish is not really a "lobster", it belongs to the crayfish family, and its scientific name is "crayfish". The scientific name of lobster is "lobster", which belongs to the lobster family. Lobsters don't have big pincers, which is the most intuitive difference between the two. Now in order to highlight the "big" of their crayfish, merchants generally call them "lobsters", and some merchants may not understand the difference between the two. The choice of trust is called "lobster" in the list, and it follows the merchant's recipe.
The crayfish of the persimmon are all from Jiangsu, and the boss personally rushed to all parts of Jiangsu to inspect and sign a direct contract with the farmers, and only select the crayfish with better quality. There are 3 kinds of crayfish price packages for Xi Persimmon, which are 238 yuan (1kg), 348 yuan (1.5kg), and 428 yuan (1.25kg). There are two specifications of crayfish, which are about 1 tael of live lobsters and about 1.5 taels of large lobsters, the latter is only used for the 428 yuan package, which is also the reason why the 348 yuan package has more portions but is cheaper. Even during the peak crayfish season, large lobsters are hard to find, and diners are advised to make reservations in advance. Xi persimmon is open for business in winter, crayfish production maintains a high level, and the individual is basically more than 9 yuan, which is commendable. The restaurant scrubs the crayfish every day, cuts the head to remove the shrimp line, and discards the dying and dead crayfish directly.
There are eight classic flavours to choose from: Spicy, Tumbling Stir-Fry, Extra Thick Garlic, Ma Ma Ma, Xi Persimmon Sour Soup, Original Chilled, Soup Immersion, Huaiyang Braised Soup, each with its own dipping sauce or side dishes. The crayfish are all cut and processed with shrimp lines, which is quite different from other restaurants with different tastes and different processing methods.
The original chilled and extra-thick garlic paste is the signature flavor of Xi persimmon, and its excellent performance has left a deep impression on many diners. Generally speaking, restaurants will use wine to marinate and season chilled crayfish in restaurants, and then chill them cold. Xi persimmon adopts the blanching method that tests the quality of crayfish even more. The crayfish on the table neatly surround an "iceberg", which looks much better than an ordinary crayfish shop. The exclusive sauce is the proud capital of the persimmon, and the combination of the white and tender shrimp meat can be said to complement each other.
The taste of the extra-thick garlic crayfish is even more unforgettable. Many restaurants use a little garlic to spread in the crayfish to enhance the flavor, and the honest one is to spread a layer of garlic paste. Xi persimmon in the color, aroma, taste of the three indicators to the new diners a huge impact. The thick plate of yellow garlic on the table is very eye-catching, and the smell of garlic makes diners full of anticipation. It is understood that the garlic paste of the persimmon comes from the practice of stewing like a marinated soup all year round, and the new garlic is constantly added, and the original soup base continues to preserve the strong garlic flavor. The garlic flavor of the crayfish meat is very strong, and the flavor is quite deep. Diners are advised to order some staple dishes and enjoy them with crushed garlic.
Ma Ma Ma Ma Crayfish is a dish developed by the boss in 2016, which stems from its concept of "enough hemp to drink". Green peppercorns, dried red peppers, and tender lotus root are well matched with special sauces, which makes the shrimp meat have a very numb flavor and is very enjoyable. The other flavors of crayfish performed relatively averagely, and there were no surprises, but it was still worth trying.
The environment of Xi Persimmon is much better than that of ordinary crayfish restaurants, and the clean, bright, spacious and comfortable Western-style decoration style gives visitors a better first impression. The waiter's enthusiasm is average, and there is nothing else to criticize. The minimum consumption for private rooms is 1,500 yuan, and no service charge will be charged.
