Wang Xiaojing's shad caused a sensation as soon as it hit the menu at Dihao Grand Hotel, with seasoned diners praising its flavor as a rival to the Yangtze River Shad.
As everyone knows, it is now nearly impossible to get Yangtze River Shad. Fans of the fish have had no choice but to settle for shad from the United States or those bred by fish farmers. These two alternatives don't compare in taste to the Yangtze River Shad, and it's impossible to get them alive.
With live shad available at Dihao Hotel and comparable in taste to the Yangtze River Shad, it'd be hard for it not to be a hit!
Wang Dakui originally wanted to try one for himself, but as soon as the news spread, all fourteen shad were ordered by customers during just one meal, leaving Wang Dakui frustrated yet also marveling at the sheer number of rich folks around!
A single portion of steamed shad could fetch a price of twenty to thirty thousand!
