🍽️ The taste of this restaurant is like the leaves of the forest, ordinary and natural. 🌿🍲 The ingredients are quite ordinary, and the cooking is not very good Environment: The standard sense of a small restaurant🌲🌼 Service: It's quite satisfactory. However, here, the waiter's smile is like the ripples of sunlight on the lake, making you feel warm and welcome. ☀️😊 But it's really not delicious👿

My parents smiled at each other, and the children ran on the grass. At that moment, I suddenly understood: Travel isn't about escaping life, but about living life like poetry. 5000 yuan can't buy a luxury cruise ship, but it can buy— a family watching the sunrise over the sea together, a pot of seafood porridge we caught ourselves, and a memory of "this is how we used to live." Lianyungang remains silent, but its mountains and seas tell you: Happiness, in fact, is very cheap.
