In Da Lang, Yun Liang(1) restaurant was one of the more expensive restaurants, and it was certainly the most prestigious. It was frequently patronized by rich nobility and people of high status. Sometimes, even the ministers and the royal Princes also visited the restaurant to entertain their guests, or to just have some meal by themselves.
The food and wine served were of the highest quality, with rare ingredients sourced even as far as the west and north. Whatever other eateries did not normally serve due to the complexity of the dish, or the lack of ingredients, people could certainly find it in Yun Liang.
The restaurant also boasted several private rooms, to accommodate these more noble personages.

Today, to ease her mind, she had wanted to eat her favorite river fish, stewed with ginseng and jujubes. The stew was slowly cooked over burning charcoal, even when served. The white meat of the fish, and several chunks of red meat to give the stock more flavor, made the stew more colorful and enticing. it was perfect to be consumed during winter.

It would cause a lot of young men grovelling just for the Princess to grace them with her small smile.
As a woman, she was the very picture of grace and elegance.
