The simple and elegant atmosphere and authentic and delicious dishes make Qinglu particularly eye-catching in the Qiandao Lake Scenic Area, where there are many restaurants in the farm, subverting the simple and unpretentious image of the traditional farm, and it is almost full on holidays. It is worth mentioning that the restaurant is located next to Shannongbao Farmhouse, which is at the top of the list, and is also close to the InterContinental Qiandao Lake.
Country potatoes are a must-try vegetarian dish at almost every table. The diced potatoes are first simply fried, fried until crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and then stir-fried with green chilies. Because the potatoes are fried, the dishes stir-fried out of the pan are golden in color, crispy and soft in taste, salty and fresh. Kaiping bream is outstanding among the fresh fish dishes in the store. It is mainly distributed in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China, and is one of the high-quality fish catches in Qiandao Lake. The bream is skillfully spined and finned, and the fish is flattened in an "open screen" shape, and simmered with seafood soy sauce, red pepper and shallots. The meat is smooth, sweet and delicious. The fly in the ointment is that there are a lot of broken fish and bones, so you need to pay more attention to eating.
Compared with the above two dishes, the local famous dish Qiandao Lake fish head is slightly weaker in the store. The huge fish body is mostly used for "one fish and two eats": the fish head is boiled in white soup and stewed, and the fish tail is braised and chopped with pepper or vinegar. It is customary to use silver carp weighing up to 5 catties as the ingredient in the dish, and silver carp is an inland river fish, and the fishy fat in the meat is heavier than that of marine fish, so removing the fishy and removing the fish is an important process in making this type of dish. The usual methods of removing the fish include soaking salt, removing tendons and picking out the fascia of the fish. Failure to remove the fishy smell will lead to a strong smell of fish puree, which will affect the taste of the dish. Customers are advised to choose chopped pepper or braised pork to cover it with heavy seasoning, or opt for bream with a lighter earthy taste.
Compared with most local restaurants with plain decoration, Qinglu, which looks like a star-rated restaurant, has a lot of charm to attract customers. Wrought iron fans, wooden ceilings and greenery create a sophisticated and elegant dining atmosphere. On the other hand, the freezer and fish pond at the entrance of the store display a variety of poultry and fruit and vegetable ingredients for diners to choose from, so that customers can eat with confidence. The fly in the ointment is that there is no separate menu in the store, and the specific prices of the dishes need to be obtained by the staff in detail.
In the hall of the store, the supply of private dining rooms is complete, and there are also some chess and card rooms for customers to relax and entertain after meals, and the supporting facilities are relatively complete. In addition, the restaurant has a preferential payment item, which is cost-effective, and you can ask the staff for details. Customers arriving by car can park their vehicles in the restaurant's parking lot.
