Let's have a look. At noon, I went straight to Yuting Bridge from the West Third Ring Road, and once again lamented that this big lady's sense of road was really inconspicuous. If it's really easy to drive, let my colleagues wait for me in the car. After I ran to the store and asked, I found that people had put the peach I ordered on the table. . What a big basket. I just know that there are many kinds of birthday peaches here, and the prices range from tens to hundreds. Although I have already bought it, I feel I can order a smaller one next time, because 198 is really too big, whether it's a birthday or a move. What the time-honored brand thinks is that looking at that big basket of birthday peaches is full of joy and excitement. Later, from the results, the old people at home really liked to put it on the table in the private room, and even the waiter said it was beautiful. Let's talk about this store, a subordinate enterprise of Laozhengxing Cheap Shop. To tell the truth, it's really hard to find if the network is not developed. So this time, since I'm here, I'll try my best to explore the store-explore the store and share it with you seriously, and then explain the purpose to my aunt. It is very important for us young people to spread old brands through word of mouth. My aunt cooperated with me and learned that I would write a review for them. She carefully took down every display basket for me. After taking photos, I found that the head, craft and appearance of homemade buns are still being sold here. So we took photos together, and everyone can try it when they are free. Don't forget that there is such an old shop in old Beijing that specializes in making birthday peaches (PS: Shoutao is packed in a basket and covered with plastic film. At first, I thought it was for hygiene. Later, it was found that this film can not only isolate dust, but also keep moisture. Beijing is dry in winter, please eat it as soon as possible, or it will dry easily and affect the appearance.
