重庆高温夜，吃顿烤肉像拍惊悚片 | Chongqing’s Hot Summer Night: BBQ Turned into a Thriller

6月29日晚上，重庆的天气热得像在锅里翻滚，我们一家人决定出去“自我加热”——吃烤肉。
On the night of June 29, Chongqing was boiling hot—literally. So our family decided to "self-heat" by going out for barbecue.

考虑到实在太热，咱也不敢跑远，就挑了家附近的烤肉店。
Since it was too hot to travel far, we picked a BBQ spot close to home.

刚一到门口我们就开始犯嘀咕：这家店菜品少得可怜，份量像是给仙女吃的，价格却飘得跟房价一样高。
As soon as we arrived, doubts crept in. The menu was painfully limited, portions were fit for fairies, and prices were floating high like real estate.

正当我们犹豫要不要换一家时，老板满脸笑容热情招呼，架势比烤肉炉子还热，我们一时不好意思，就硬着头皮坐下了。
Just as we were debating a quick escape, the owner greeted us with a smile warmer than the grill. Out of politeness, we sat down reluctantly.

点菜的时候手在抖，吃的时候嘴在嘀咕：“这也太少了吧？”、“味道一般般哦～”、“价格有点飘哈”、“下次绝对不来了！”
Our hands trembled ordering, and our mouths couldn’t stop muttering while eating: “This is too little,” “Tastes so-so,” “Kinda overpriced,” “We’re never coming back!”

全家边吃边吐槽，吐得比炉子都冒烟。
The whole family was roasting the meal harder than the grill was roasting the meat.

关键是——老板就坐在我们旁边的凳子上，笑眯眯地听着！
And the kicker? The boss was sitting right next to us, smiling and listening the whole time!

我一边往嘴里塞肉，一边小声对家人说：“快点吃点垫肚子，等下赶紧找下一家。千万别让老板听见，不然万一他起身掀桌子咋整……”
I whispered while stuffing meat into my mouth: “Just eat enough to fill up, then we find another place. Don’t let the boss hear—what if he flips the table?”

那一顿饭，吃出了烧烤+紧张刺激剧的双重体验。
That meal? It was part BBQ, part suspense thriller.
