I have a story Do you have mutton hotpot? There is our story in this pot of mutton hotpot

In the morning, Zhou Ruyi, who was studying in Japan, suddenly sent me two pictures: the bustling streets of Japan, the familiar sign of Little Fat Sheep quietly appeared in the middle of the picture. She said in her voice a little excitedly that there are also Little Fat Sheep in Japan, and I really want to go in and eat mutton!

Zhou Ruyi is a veteran foodie. Before becoming a freelancer, she worked in the media for a while before she became a freelancer. While she was busy working in various places, she would find local hotpot to start her journey of trying out her fresh food whenever she went to a strange place. She always says that China has a wide variety of hot pots, including vegetarian and meat, and thrifty people. From mutton hot pot to dry pot to cold pot skewers , all of which reflect our rich understanding of eating.

I just flew back to Nanning, Guangxi to take a break a while ago. I went back to my old unit to see my old friends who had been away from me for many years. When I passed by the intersection of Dongge Hsinchu Road, we looked at a new building. The two suddenly looked at each other tacitly and sighed: "I really want to eat a little fat sheep!"

It was not an exaggeration to see this little fat sheep at the intersection of Dongge Hsinchu Road that year at the peak of the entire Nanning hot pot industry. The two-story restaurant is full of people inside and outside. In the steaming hot pot, the unique fresh fragrance of mutton is churning in the gurgling soup, rushing out; the fat and lean meat slices are dipped in the sauce made of sesame paste and sesame oil and aged vinegar. The meat is fragrant and never greasy. When meal time comes, diners who come outside the restaurant or loyal fans of Xiaofei Sheep will consciously queue up to pick up numbers and wait for the happiness of a pot of mutton shabu.

Thinking of the time in line, Ruyi also rode her bicycle to the door of Xiaofei Sheep in order to have a meal with her friends at dinner time, and quickly got the number! Back then, she was the "snatch number Xiaotian " in the office. She was led by the waiter through the bustling crowd. She ordered a pot of mutton soup base, a few plates of fresh mutton, and a few portions of fried bean curd, lettuce, cabbage and tofu. She was simply not satisfied!

chatting and laughing, but suddenly I found that many memories were related to the little fat sheep: I wrote the article late at night, eating the mutton buns she specially packed, and the comfort of roasted lamb chops , and we were suffering from the stomach and intestines; we returned from an interview in the winter when we occasionally freeze our ears, and resurrected with a pot of mutton sauté; and we were happily burning the mutton, and we quickly hiccupped when we received the notification of emergency revision of the manuscript... These "wes" eventually made a news intern gradually grow into a news person who can stand alone.

During the days when we are working hard to grow, the brands that accompany us to grow are also constantly innovating with the spirit of exploration: the increasingly fashionable restaurant decoration, modern and simple style, Mongolian ethnic style, and Jiangnan water town garden style have made the dining environment of Xiaofei sheep more and more comfortable, and there is no need to "queuing in line" Ruyi goes to queue up, queuing with her mobile phone, and queuing while shopping is particularly convenient. And food innovation is even more colorful, "Three Sheep Stewed Bone Pot" and the Spicy Sheep Scorpion Pot... can always make me feel that this "old friend" is full of creativity!

In the 20 years that this brand has gone through, Japan, Cambodia , Singapore , Myanmar , Mongolia, Australia, the United States and other countries have long been able to smell the mutton soup. More than 60 overseas stores are also to allow homesick Chinese people to have a pot of mutton when they are thinking about homesickness.

Thinking that she might be still on the streets of Japan at this time, she opened Taobao and quietly ordered a few boxes of small fat sheep's self-cooked hot pots for her. When she returned to China, she would reminisce about the homesickness of this bowl of mutton hotpot with her.
