The high temperature of the hot oil transformed this freshness into the most enticing aroma, and almost instantly, it had the people on the nearby fishing boats salivating.
This dish is certainly no stranger to coastal cities or people like them who frequently go out to sea; they had even made it themselves while at sea, and its unique taste is easily recognizable as soon as it hits the air.
"Wow, is it really deep-fried ribbonfish?"
"No doubt about it, you can tell just by the smell."
"As expected of Boss Wang, just the aroma is more fragrant than our own cooking."
"We're fishing professionals, and he's a culinary professional; it's not a fair comparison!"
"We've really hit the jackpot today; I made a little profit, so I won't fish anymore today. I'll just have a bottle of aged wine with the fried ribbonfish and take a good nap; even an immortal wouldn't trade places with me, hahaha."
