The highway service area is really important for friends traveling long distances. In addition to vehicle refueling, maintenance, and personnel going to the toilet, many people also choose to eat in the service area. Although there are not many choices, the most important thing is to save time and speed. For people traveling, time is undoubtedly an important consideration.
Normally, I rarely eat in the service area. I only occasionally visit the restaurant in the service area when I am traveling long distances. This time, I drove back to Chongqing from Guangdong. I picked up friends from Shenzhen in the morning and went to Dongguan to do some errands. I had lunch at noon before I could do it. I drove from Dongguan to Guilin, Guangxi in one go. When I was in the Pingle service area, the car should be refueled and my stomach was hungry. In order to move forward a little before dark, I decided to eat in the service area. I happened to see a fast food restaurant for 35 yuan per person, so I decided to go in and have a look.
Two friends who were traveling with them looked at the dishes and felt that they were tasteless. They said they would go and see if there were any snacks on the side. However, I thought it was okay. There were 36 dishes for 35 yuan. The choices were very rich and the price was very reasonable, so I bought the meal ticket and decided to eat in the restaurant.
While I was cooking, I also casually took this set of photos with my mobile phone. Everyone can see if it is quite good. There is meat and eggs, which is extremely rich. There is no limit to the amount of food, and it is determined if you are full.
There are not only fried meat inside, but also chicken, duck, ham, and fish. Although it cannot be compared with the buffets in luxury hotels, it is much more generous and unlimited compared with fast food restaurants in industrial areas and streets., let alone compared with the in-flight meals on high-speed trains and planes, at least it looks much better.
However, what is surprising is that many of these dishes are cold. In winter, why don't you keep them warm when there is insulation and heating equipment underneath? Everyone has been traveling on the highway all day. Who wouldn't want to have a hot meal?
I originally had a good impression, but I lost my appetite just because the dish was cold. Although there were such good conditions and such good ingredients, many people were disappointed because it was cold. It was really difficult to understand. Could it be that I was worried that others would eat too much?
In the end, I picked out a few warm vegetables (maybe they had just been fried and poured out) and took a few quick bites. I really had no appetite. In fact, not long after eating this meal, my stomach became a little uncomfortable.
Objectively speaking, the environment here is actually very good, and there are so many dishes with it. If it weren't for the fact that these dishes were cold, I would really give him a thumbs up.
Everyone look at this environment, does it feel good? What I didn't expect was that the other two friends decided to buy instant noodles because they saw that the dishes were tasteless. However, they bought the noodles. When they went to pick up the boiling water, I didn't know if there were too many people picking up the water. It was still bad. After waiting for a long time, the water did not reach 100 degrees. The soaked noodles fell out after a few bites. They didn't forget to complain to me after getting on the bus.
Alas, it can be said that it was a very bad dining experience. I saw that the signboard in the Pingle service area outside had become a Ganle service area, and no one cared about it. Perhaps it was understandable that such a situation occurred inside, but the Spring Festival travel season is approaching, and a large number of returning tourists are coming soon. If they can't even drink a hot meal or a cup of boiled water, can such a service area be called a service area?
