The salmon head with attractive color is roasted until golden and crispy, with the edges slightly curled up. The high temperature forces out the fish oil, leaving attractive amber lines on the skin, which is crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. The fresh fruit acid of lemon juice instantly penetrates into the fish meat, neutralizing the greasiness while awakening the taste buds; dip a mouthful of sesame salt, and the salty and fragrant particles burst on the tip of the tongue. Paired with a little wine and a drink with teammates, it is comfortable and satisfying. Watching teammates squint their eyes and praise "drunkenness and dreamlessness", at this moment, there is no need for gorgeous words, the happiness in the fireworks is quietly overflowing, and food and company are the most healing appearance of life.
