Foodie's diary #26--- Eating in Lotus Floating Chinese Restaurant. 吃货日记#26---在伦敦高楼林立的金融城里找到了一艘中国船餐厅。

Hello Steemians 💛

Canary wharf is the new city of London and one of the important commercial and shopping districts. The tallest buildings in London are mostly located here.

金丝雀码头算是伦敦新兴的金融城，也是重要的商业区和购物区之一，伦敦最高的建筑大都坐落在这里。

这里融合了各种现代风格的建筑，世界各地的顶尖公司与人才都在这里工作生活，包括巴克莱银行（Barclays），花旗银行（Citigroup）, 高围绅律师事务所（Clifford Chance）, 瑞士信贷银行（Credit Suisse）, 汇丰银行（HSBC）, 摩根大通（J.P. Morgan）, 毕马威（KPMG）等等。听到就觉得好酷有没有。

Here is a blend of all kinds of modern style of architecture, top companies and talents from all over the world here, working life, including Barclays, Citigroup, Clifford Chance, Credit Suisse, HSBC, J.P. Morgan, KPMG and so on. It's cool to hear it.

当然由于这个区平均收入较高，近年来这区的房价在全伦敦属于飙升最快的，像我们这些没有很多钱的留学生快要租不起公寓了。

Of course, because of the high average income in this area, the house prices in this area have soared fastest in recent years. Like those of us who don't have a lot of money, can hardly rent apartments nowadays.

今天带大家品尝一家高楼大厦边古色古香中餐厅。没错，就是摩天大楼前这艘小红船。

Today, I will take you to taste the antique Chinese restaurant in front of the tall buildings. Yes, the little red boat in front of the skyscrapers.

别看与这艘小红船只是隔着河相望，要想走去过还是有一段距离的啊。

Don't look at the little red boat across the river. It's still a long way to go.

沿路都是些可爱房子的小餐厅。

All along the road are small restaurants with lovely houses.

近距离看这船，个头不小呀，好像能开走？

Look at the boat at close range, it's not small, as if you can drive away?

眼前这景真是西式和中式建筑碰撞出的火花阿。

The scene is really a western architecture mixed with Chinese.

这家餐厅名字也够有意境的，名字叫水上的莲花，莲舫酒家(Lotus Floating Chinese Restaurant)。

The name of the Restaurant is also quite artistic. It is called Lotus Floating Chinese Restaurant.

里面的一些陈列：

Some of the displays in it:

里面很多中国的古董装饰，看来老板没有少花钱在这些东西上。

Many of the Chinese antiques are decorated, and the boss doesn't seem to be spending less on them.

各种桌子椅子的雕花。

The carved flowers of various table chairs.

船上的空间被改成了一长条整齐排列的圆桌。

The ship's space was changed into a long, neatly arranged round table.

从这家餐厅的菜单看上去，粤菜的食物比中国城的中餐要丰富了许多。有很多很地道的粤菜。

From this restaurant's menu, the food is much richer than the food in China town. There are many authentic cantonese dishes.

天色将尽，透过红色木质小窗望向窗外，黄昏河边高楼林立，分不清是现代还是古代。

Near sun down, through the red wooden windows, the evening by the riverside with the high buildings, I can not distinguish it is modern or ancient.

这一盘大肉里面内容好丰富，有红烧排骨，鸡爪和腐竹。

This dish of meat is rich in content, with braised pork ribs, chicken feet and bamboo.

用豆腐乳来蘸，更加进味。

Use bean curd to dip and taste.

青椒豉汁虾仁，非常入味。

Green pepper black bean sauce shrimp, very tasty.

这个鸡蛋清，皮蛋和新鲜豆苗，最有地道粤菜的风味，其他餐厅的蔬菜几乎没有加进鸡蛋清的。

The egg and fresh pea seedlings, the most authentic cantonese flavor, and other restaurant vegetables have hardly been added to the egg.

干煸豆角很下饭的菜。

Stir-fried beans are a great dish.

竹筒的米饭，可以装下四五碗米饭。

A bamboo tube can hold four or five bowls of rice.

看看这橱窗里的珍宝，像个历史博物馆，好像偷走那玉壶，还有迷你版的茅台酒？

Look at the treasures in the window, like a museum of history, I'd like to steal the jade pot, and the miniature version of MAO tai?

好想醉倒在这迷人的夜景，你呢？

I want to be drunk on this charming night scene. What about you?
