□ 文/本刊记者 杨艳
重庆,美食之都,是不少“吃货”心中的“美食天堂”。随着不同国家地域间的人员往来和文化交流的展开,越来越多的异国美食在这里落地生根,重庆的美食类型在不断丰富。如今,开放的重庆已成为各种风味美食的汇聚之地,来自不同国家地区的人在这里以美食为纽带加深彼此情谊。本期和记者一起,继续探寻这些来自异域的美食吧。
【日本】斗十千 纯正日料在舌尖绽放
“斗十千”这店名取自曹植著作《曹子建集》的《名都篇》:“归来宴平乐,美酒斗十千。脍鲤臇胎鰕,炮鳖炙熊蹯。”颇有些喝酒吃肉的豪迈之意。斗十千的装修有别于传统的日料店,店内以原木色为主,墙面及桌椅均是原木。老板将大面积的玻璃做成隔断,明朗通透,吧台下是柔软细致的白砂,在灯光下营造出流动的水波纹。店内有一棵树龄超过40年的手植罗汉松,是老板跑遍南山,从一位山隐老翁园中觅得的宝贝,装点出淡雅的日式枯山水庭院氛围,自然清净,暖色调灯光给人柔和的舒适感。
店内设有4个用餐区域,互不打扰。设有10人至14人的包间式用餐区,私密性较好。而开放式用餐区,将传统的榻榻米改造成下沉式,高低错落,更增添了几分情趣。一个人来店里可以坐在原木色吧台,一边享受美食,一边与厨师闲聊。
老板是广州人,出身美食世家,与美食的缘分打从娘胎肚子里就开始了,他的爷爷奶奶都是一辈子精研广州美食的厨房高手。店里的料理团队也来头不小,料理长和副料理长师承日本著名料理师加藤师傅及平泽师傅,拥有10年以上的高端日料的制作经验。
在斗十千,能吃到不那么常见的日料。食材是从日本、加拿大、澳洲等地空运采购。老板首推店里独创的招牌热寿司,选用日本大米、秘制酱汁,加以芝士封盖,用石板加热慢焗,芝士融化渗透在雪蟹肉与饭团内,醇香弥漫于唇齿之间。还有一道法国红酒浸鹅肝,这是经过法国AO级红酒腌制,慢煮后,再次腌制、密封、冷藏,烹制方法繁琐。摆盘很有艺术感,色泽粉嫩,这道菜口感细腻绵密,唇齿生香。
海胆汁焗帝王蟹是大菜,将北海道顶级虾夷马粪海胆汁淋洒在日本深海帝王蟹之上,用炉火慢焗,不仅保留了帝王蟹的鲜嫩,还带有一丝海味和咸香。脆皮烤鳗鱼是点菜率较高的菜,鳗鱼来自日本北海道,现杀现烤,经厨师一刀剔骨后,蒸至45分钟,再经过25分钟的烤制,直到鳗鱼皮被烤得像海苔一样酥脆,刷上以鳗鱼头、骨节熬制的酱汁,入口鲜甜酥脆,肉质饱满细嫩,再浅饮一杯甜美醇香的自酿梅子酒,瞬间舒爽,美味在舌尖绽放,带来由内而外的满足。

【德国】海森堡 吃正宗猪肘看球赛才过瘾
德国原装进口的啤酒,皮脆肉嫩的招牌德式猪肘,多种口味的秘制德国香肠……在海森堡德国餐厅可以品尝这些来自德国的传统美食,感受现代的德国生活方式,这里已成为“既可以让外国人缓解思乡之情,又可以让当地人体验异国情调”的地方。
店内装饰融合了现代德国的摩登工业风格,金属质感极强的酒桶墙、皮质座椅、简约吊灯、大面积的酒杯柜、充满德甲特色的装饰墙,打造出一个颇带运动感的餐厅氛围。
德国餐厅最吸引人的是啤酒,海森堡的啤酒是遵循了1516年德国最古老最严格的酿造法则精心酿制的。每道菜品在来自奥地利大厨的监管下,保留了最传统地道的风味。德国传统菜肴的代表作是香肠,德国香肠不下百种之多,主要原料从猪肉到牛肉,再到蔬菜,包括培根肉、小牛肉、牛奶和洋葱末,甚至猪和牛的內脏、舌头等,都可以成为原料,再加入盐、胡椒及豆蔻等香料,形成风味不同的美食。他们家的香肠內含肉块,可吃得到肉块,搭配啤酒真的很过瘾。
他们家的招牌菜是特色猪肘,现在有6款口味,特别是海森堡经典原味猪肘,表皮香脆,经过近24小时、数道工序的腌制,最终烤制而成,外脆里嫩,肉汁丰富。柏林传统猪肘也不错,经过16小时秘方腌制,用慢火焖煮,肉质新鲜,食而不腻。老板说不久将会新增3款口味,特制了热辣味、黑胡椒味,还有特别融合巧克力和芝士的蒜香味等。
德国的啤酒、葡萄酒在全世界享有盛名。德国是世界饮酒大国,酒类年消耗量居世界第二位,其中啤酒的销量居世界首位。啤酒、葡萄酒在他们家自然不能少。点一杯葡萄酒,仿佛整个空气中都弥漫着诱人的葡萄清香。满脑子浮现的是一串串芳香扑鼻的葡萄,红艳艳地闪着晶莹的亮光,令人垂涎,呡一口如蜜汁浸齿,香溢舌间。
店内设有大屏幕,每逢有重大球赛,球友不约而同聚集在此,边看直播边享受美食,就像一场节日狂欢。

【西班牙】派利多 热情与奔放融化在美食中
“住在法国,行在美国,吃在西班牙。”西班牙人对待美食的态度令人折服,无论是享誉全球、贵比LV的伊比利亚火腿,抑或是花样百出、琳琅满目的Tapas,西班牙的美食总是带给人们惊喜。
在派利多西班牙餐厅,室内陈设具有浓烈的西班牙风格,深邃的黑色与火热的红色碰撞出热情与奔放的气质。从开阔的落地窗洒进来的阳光,微笑如和煦阳光的帅气服务员,一道纯正地道的异域美食,这些元素都是派利多餐厅的标配。
有地道的西班牙厨师坐镇,保证了口味的纯正。先点一道菜品Tapas,这是西班牙人餐桌上不可或缺的食物,一道百搭菜式,它可以搭配火腿,也可以是沙拉、煎鱼、奶酪卷等各式复杂的食物。它不仅仅是一道配酒的小菜,更像是一个开胃小零食,更是象征着西班牙人的热情和自由,这才是打开一顿西班牙盛宴的正确方式。
食材丰富的海鲜饭、美味可口的5J火腿,是他们家不可错过的菜品。海鲜饭是与法国蜗牛、意大利面齐名的西餐三大名菜之一,在西班牙饮食文化中占有重要地位。他们家的海鲜饭以西班牙的艮米为原料,佐以香料藏红花,加上各色海鲜焖制而成,用料很足,扇贝青口个头大,虾也较多。
蔓越莓山羊奶酪核桃沙拉也不错,奶酪很美味,具有浓厚的奶香,层次分明,用料是羊奶酪,口味明显有别于普通的奶酪,羊奶独特的味道与果醋结合,细细品尝后有些回甜,在口腔留下馥郁的芬芳。让服务员推荐一款与餐食搭配的葡萄酒,再点些小吃,让西班牙的美味就从口腔进入胃,再袭卷全身每个细胞。

【越南】渝越荟 越式风味释放植物清香
在重庆,专做越南菜的餐厅屈指可数,渝越荟就是其中一家。走进餐厅,墙面上一汪湖绿色与两面古朴圆镜相搭,呈现出一派淡雅写意,糅合着温婉的东方美学,让人瞬间沉静下来。整体的湖水绿衬着具有浓厚越南风格的传统缕空雕花,吧台墙由深咖啡色的越南古董窗棂拼接而成,主餐区的吊灯极富越南风,尤显秀逸。从人声喧扰的商圈至此,仅一步之遥的距离,却仿佛穿越至19世纪万种风情的越南。
越南菜烹调注重原味、清爽,强烈推荐他们家的越南米粉,它的精髓在于天然提炼食物的营养。大厨用28味秘方香料和牛肉,通过24小时原汤炖制,不添加任何味精、防腐剂,以少就是多为原则,将食材的营养发挥最大化。它采用越南本地优质大米,采用传统工艺磨浆,蒸熟、分切成粉,然后自然风干,整个制作工艺有30多道,最大程度保留了大米的清香,更保障了营养和健康。米粉晶莹剔透,厚薄一致,入口柔滑。
“PHO火车头”是其中一款越南米粉,是他们家的招牌。相传在旧时的越南火车站,有位卖牛肉汤的老伯,由于他的汤足汤靓料,十分味美,轮候的人往往由火车头排至火车尾,“火车头”因而得名。这道菜食材相当丰富,有手打的牛肉丸、鱼丸,还有牛百叶、牛筋、牛腱肉、生肥牛,料足味美,丸子十分Q弹、多汁。据老板透露,烹饪的器皿是独家定制,为保持汤的温度,且方便加入来自东南亚的九层塔、薄荷叶、柠檬等香料,所以特制成3层,形成一个不让营养流失的圆形炖盅。
他们家的菜品讲究阴阳调和,即使是油炸的菜肴,厨师也会配上新鲜生菜、薄荷菜、九层塔、小黄瓜等可生吃的菜,一上桌就能闻到沁人心脾的植物芳香。如炸春卷,菜色鲜嫩,厨师制作时,通过火候的变化可以去除油腻,基本保持越南菜清淡自然的口味。厨师通常把肉类用香料腌制后再烹调,这样使得香味“逼”入肉质,咀嚼之间口舌生香。

【韩国】紫霞门菜 舌尖上的“大长今”料理
“紫霞门”乍听起来,不免让人猜想是否与电影《大话西游》有关,其实它就是一家韩国餐厅,经营地道的韩国美食。来到紫霞门,你会发现很多与其他韩餐烤肉店不一样的地方。走进紫霞门,最先感受到的是店内的古典风格:古香古色的窗格、敦实的木桌椅。空间布局宽敞,就算散客区,也设有间隔。最夺人眼球的是陈列在巨型玻璃橱窗内的韩国传统服饰,质地华丽,它静静诉说着韩国文化,在韩国电视剧《大长今》里,女主角就是穿着这样的服饰烹饪出绝世美味。
餐厅厨房是半开放式,食客从外面能看见厨师制作的全过程。韩国人喜爱做牛肉、猪肉料理,并且各个部位都有不同的吃法和做法,而且讲究配合不同的季节选择食材和烹饪方式。翻开菜单,各种烤肉令人目不暇接。在韩国料理中,王排骨是顶级排骨的意思,只有高级餐厅才有充足的王排供应,这里有烤生牛王排,还有秘制调味猪王排,精华都浓缩在这巴掌大的一块肉上。当然,价格也不便宜。
先说说烤牛王排骨,牛王排骨是牛肋第6根到第8根之间的排骨,肉质细嫩,汁水饱满。精选的牛肉在大厨的精心刀工下,呈现出极具美感的外形,烤制后,香软爽口,鲜嫩多汁。餐厅专门准备了加热炉,铺上一层洋葱圈。烤熟的肉块可以放在上面保温,淡淡的洋葱味起到提鲜作用。猪王排骨选用上好的猪肋骨,与牛排相比,猪肉纤维更松散,烤熟后口感也更酥软。秘制的猪排酱料偏甜,特别适合用蔬菜包着吃。
一份最高品质的烤肉是牛肉里脊与肋骨之间的肉,而这部分肉在牛身上只有4%,拥有着天然的大理石花纹,油脂和肌肉分布均匀,吃起来肉汁丰富而口感十足。听店长说,这些牛肉是韩国进口,切成鲜美的薄片,在口腔中有一种几乎要融化的感觉。
除了烤肉,还得尝尝他们家口碑颇高的炒年糕,这道普通的食物是鉴别一家韩国餐厅是否正宗的关键,他家的年糕酱汁不腻口,很入味,年糕的口感也很软糯。韩国有句谚语:“每天一碗大酱汤,不用开药方”,他们家的大酱汤,酱香浓郁、味道独特,记得一定要尝尝。餐后喝一杯桂皮茶,味道浓郁,沁人心脾。

Today, people in different places have gathered here to enjoy the delicious food, which has strengthened their friendship. Now come with me and continue exploring those delicacies from other countries.
【Japan】Doushiqian: A Bite of Japan
Doushiqian (which means a pipe of wine is worth ten thousand ancient coins), is taken from the poem Famous City in the Collection of Cao Zijian, “Upon our return, in a temple we dine. A pipe of wine is worth ten thousand ancient coins. Served on the table are stewed carps in pairs, with braised tortoise and roasted paws of bears.” It shows the heroic in drinking and eating. This place is distinguished from the traditional in decoration as it is mainly in natural color. The surface of walls and tables and chairs are all made of logs. This restaurant, bright and transparent, has been partitioned into small sections with glass. Under the bar is some white sand, soft and smooth, as if rippling water under the lamplight. In this store plants a more than 40-year-old podocarpus, a treasure the manager saught over the Nanshan to acquire from a secluded garden. This tree adds simple and elegant atmosphere of Japanese dry landscape curtilage to this place, quiet and peaceful. With the soft and warm light, it is a comfortable store.
It has 4 dining areas, which prevents from the mutual disturbance. With independent dining rooms which can accommodate 10-14 people, this food store provides a good privacy. In the open dining areas, traditional tatami is transformed into the sunken one, which scatters randomly and adds interest to the area. If you are alone, the log counter is a nice choice to enjoy your food while chatting with the chef.
The boss comes from Guangzhou. Born into a family of master cooks, he has grandparents who have been engaged in Cantonese food in their whole life. He is destined to devote himself to food. This restaurant is run by a famous team. The chef and the vice chef are disciples of the Japanese masters, Katou and Hirasawa, and have over-ten-year experience in making high-end Japanese cuisine.
Less common Japanese food is also available in Doushiqian. The materials are delivered by air from Japan, Canada and Australia, etc. The shop’s specialty is the original Hot Sushi, which adopts Japanese rice and special homemade sauce, with cheese on the surface. Baking in gentle heat with a slate, the cheese permeates into the snow crab and rice balls; sweet smell just melts in the mouth. Another specialty is the French Foie Gras in Red Wine. It is pickled in the French AO-level red wine and simmered, and then it will be pickled again, sealed and refrigerated. The process is very complicated and the plate presentation is quite artistic. The meat is tender and has a smooth and rich taste, leaving a pleasant aftertaste in the mouth. Roasted King Crab with sea urchin sauce is a main course. Sprinkling the top Hokkaido strongylocentrotus intermedius sauce on the Japan deep sea king crab and baking with gentle heat, it keeps the tenderness of the crab with some salty taste of sea. Crispy Roasted Eel is another popular course. The eel is from Hokkaido and is baked as soon as killed. The fi sh is deboned with one cut, steamed for 45 minutes and baked for another 25 minutes until the skin of the eel is crisp like seaweed. Then it will be brushed with the sauce stewed with the head and bones of the eel. It is fresh and crispy, plump and tender. Taking a sip of the mellow homemade plum wine, it brings refreshing feelings and satisfaction from the inside out.

Each course is under the supervision of the Austrian chef, so it retains the most authentic fl avor. The representative traditional cuisine in German is sausage, which includes more than one hundred types. The main materials are pork, beef and vegetables, including bacon, veal, milk and onions, and even the guts and tongues of pigs and cattle. With spices such as salt, pepper and nutmeg, etc., the delicacy is of different tastes. The sausage sold in this restaurant contains meat pieces, is an excellent match to beer.
This restaurant’s specialty is pork knuckle, which now has six flavors, especially the Heisenberg classic original pork knuckle. It has crispy skin and is roasted after being cured for 24 hours with several processes. Crispy in the skin and tender inside, it has abundant gravy. The traditional Berlin pork knuckle is also delicious, which is pickled for 16 hours with secret spices and then simmered. It tastes fresh but not greasy. The boss said three more flavors will be added soon, that is, the spicy taste, the black pepper flavor and the garlic flavor combining chocolate and cheese, etc.
German beer and wine enjoy high reputation worldwide. As a major drinking country in the world, Germany is in the second place in liquor consumption and ranks fi rst in the sale of beer. As a matter of course, beer and wine are indispensable in this place. Order a glass of wine, and the tempting fragrance seems to pervade all around, the bunches of aromatic and appetizing grapes appear in our mind, with red twinkling light.

The sunshine from the wide French windows, the handsome waiters whose smile is as warm as the sun, and the authentic exotic cuisines, all these are representations of Parador.
Commanded by an authentic Spanish cook, these courses hold their genuine taste. Let’s order Tapas first, an indispensable food for every meal in Spain. This is what you can enjoy with any other food, whether it is a slice of ham or some more complex cuisines like salad, fried fish and cannoli. It is not just a side dish for wine drinking but more likely an appetizer, symbolizing the ardor and liberty of Spanish people. Tapas is absolutely a proper course to begin a Spanish banquet. Paella, made from abundant ingredients and the palatable 5J ham, is the delicacy you must have a taste. Paella, as one of the three famous Western food, enjoys the same reputation with Escargot and spaghetti, and is quite important in Spanish catering culture. Paella sold in this restaurant is made from Spanish rice and saffron. It is simmered with seafood which is of many kinds and of abundance, including huge green mussel and many shrimps.
Cranberry Goat Cheese salad with walnuts is also a nice choice. The salad is coherently arranged and the goat cheese is quite palatable and creamy, different from any normal cheese. Having a taste of the combined typical goat milk and fruit vinegar, you can feel some aftertaste of sweet smell in your mouth. Asking a waiter to recommend you a bottle of wine and ordering some snacks, you can enjoy Spanish delicacies from mouth to stomach and to the whole body.

On hearing the “Zixiamen”, you may think of A Chinese Odyssey (a Chinese film). In fact, it is a Korean restaurant, and its dishes are full of Korean fl avor.

In Zixiamen, you’ll see the classical style, such as the windowpane with antique beauty, wooden benches, chairs, and tables. The space is also roomy.
