The secret of Tianshui Lian

What really made me stay in Shanghai for one more night was Tianshui Lian. After experiencing the confidence of Shenkeng Hotel, I am looking forward to Tianshui Lian, an Italian restaurant. It’s not that I have never been to a Western restaurant, but the high consumption in the Bund still has a mysterious veil in my heart. I am eager to tear off this veil with my own hands.

On the way back from Shenkeng, I searched online for dishes recommended by netizens, trying to make tonight’s experience even better. After coming out of the sightseeing tunnel, follow the navigation to Tianshuilian. When we arrived at the store, we were lucky enough to see that there were still window seats, and the three of us sat down happily. The waiter quickly brought three menus to order, and we began to search for our favorite food. At this stage, there is no longer any problem of self-confidence, and we have all become our own heroes.

This meal was prepared by Brother Wang. He first ordered "Spicy Garlic Squid" and then prepared "Grilled Spicy Baby Octopus". At this time, I confidently said, "Let's have one of these two." "Why, both of these are delicious." "I won't eat either of these." Although I suggested getting one, I ended up canceling both. If this phenomenon had happened before, I probably wouldn't have mentioned it, and I would have just ordered it and not eaten it. But after going through the pit incident and communicating honestly with respect, I still spoke up without affecting any of the atmosphere.

In terms of drinks, we gave up the traditional red wine pairing. Brother Qi and I chose the cocktail "Tian Shui Lian". The blue sky and red background were very beautiful. Brother Wang chose deep Italian coffee, and the highlight was in this cup of coffee. When confirming the food, the waiter mentioned whether the deep Italian coffee should be a single or a double portion. I asked, "What's the difference?" The answer is, "One bite for a single portion, more for a double portion." Brother Wang chose a double portion.

The meal soon began to be served, and dark Italian coffee appeared. What a small, small cup, oh, actually it doesn’t need to be called a “cup”, it’s a lid of coffee? The three of us looked at each other and laughed in unison. The waiter realized what we were laughing at and laughed too, "It's just such a cup." In view of the 35 yuan coffee, the two brothers were ready to drink freely. I reached out to call the waiter and chose the latter between 0.5L/cup and 3L/barrel draft beer, and started the evening toast*** drink.

Because for me, cocktails are a challenge, and draft beer is also a challenge. When two glasses of wine are placed in front of me, I am always worried about what I will do if I faint. Fortunately, there was no talk of persuading people to drink. Everyone just raised their glasses and digested it as they pleased. The atmosphere between the three of them was very harmonious in the evening, and they were chatting happily. The two glasses of wine also continued to drop unknowingly, and for my own safety in the second half of the night, I gave up half a glass of beer. The dinner ended happily.

When I walked out of the restaurant, I was surprised to find that the road into the store was submerged by the river. After careful observation, only the road in front of the store was submerged. I felt happy and suddenly realized that this was the secret of Tianshui Lian. Tianshui comes because of love, which is called "Tianshui Love".

Tianshui Lian, here, we have fulfilled our wish to enjoy romance; here, we happily exchange knowledge and opinions; here, we have left wonderful memories. Here, self-confidence is slowly growing, and here, we meet a better version of ourselves!
