Li Cheng showed some interest in his eyes.âBoss Yuan, you are really unexpected. You can actually cook so well. I hope every dish is delicious.â
He had no idea how famous Yuan Zhou was now. In the past, he had been slapped in the face many times in order to treat Zhang Xu to a meal. He had also been ruthlessly rejected by Yuan Zhou several times. The only reason he didnât flip the table was that he felt he had good self-restraint.
In addition, he had always been exploring the market abroad and handed the domestic market to another partner. He had almost never taken care of it and had devoted himself to expanding his business. The news he read was all related to Finance and Economics. One couldnât expect Yuan Zhou to be on the headlines of the financial section.
Therefore, Li Cheng really didnât know how famous Yuan Yafeng was now. Before he came in, he originally wanted to order some dishes like âDongpo pig knuckleâ,âsautĂ©ed vermicelli with spicy minced porkâ, and âtranslucent beef slicesâ, which he had ordered previously, as a way to relive his old dream. However, now that he saw the thick menu, he decided to eat some fresh dishes to test his taste.
As an old customer who had been to Yuan Zhouâs restaurant before it became popular, Li Cheng felt it was necessary for him to detoxify the new customers and see if Yuan Zhouâs craftsmanship was as good as before. He also felt that Yuan Zhou might not cook well after he became famous.
To be honest, there was nothing wrong with Li Chengâs thinking. Many small shops had the real ingredients before they became famous. They paid attention to every step and the taste was quite good. However, after they became famous, the customers came in an endless stream and then there was nothing else. They began to consciously cut corners and no longer treated the dishes with care. The taste would be worse and they would not be as serious and meticulous as before.
However, when this thought was applied to Yuan Zhou, it made people feel that Li Cheng was too careless.
Of course, Li Cheng didnât know about this at the moment. He was thinking about what to order.âI just heard someone say that boss Yuan will serve a new type of min cuisine today. Why donât we try this?â
He was really curious. In the past, new dishes were always served with one or a few dishes at the same time. Now, it had developed to the new dishes of one cuisine after another. This was a little crazy.
âHua la, Hua laâ
When Dali turned the menu to the few pages of Fujian cuisine, Li Cheng was also a little confused. There were so many dishes that he had almost never heard of them before. But soon, his eyes lit up and he found a familiar dish, so he made up his mind to order that.
âWhat would you like to order?â After su Ruoyan finished ordering the customers in front of her, she walked over to Li Cheng.
âEven the waiters have been changed. Itâs time to try the taste.â Li Cheng thought to himself.
âIâll have this âBuddha Jumps Over the Wallâ, Jin âLing grass, and a serving of egg-fried rice. Thatâs all. â Li Cheng opened his mouth.
He wasnât familiar with Fujian cuisine, but he was very familiar with âBuddha Jumps Over the Wallâ. He remembered that a business partner in Fujian Province had once invited him to eat it a few years ago. At that time, it was indeed quite delicious and left a lingering taste in his mouth. Therefore, when he saw that Yuan Zhou had it here and he wasnât familiar with Fujian cuisine, he could only order the dishes that he was familiar with. This was called âkilling someone who was familiar with itâ.
âIâm sorry, Sir. The âBuddha Jumps Over the Wallâ is made with exquisite craftsmanship and requires a reservation in advance. If you really want to try it, you can make a reservation now and come back for lunch a week later.â Su Ruoyan said very politely.
After a morning of preparation, she had already memorized all the dishes in Fujian cuisine that needed to be pre-ordered, and she could even remember clearly which dish needed to be pre-ordered for a few days. In case she forgot, she had to follow the rule that a good memory was better than a bad pen. She even wrote down a memo for everything. This was the only cumbersome and time-consuming work in the master chef Restaurant.
âTsk.â
Li Cheng said with a light âtskâ sound. He instantly thought of the three rejections mentioned by Yuan Zhou when he asked Yuan Zhou if he could reserve a table or book the entire restaurant several years ago. Immediately, he was not in a good mood.
He knew Yuan Zhouâs temper very well. Therefore, he didnât challenge the rules. Instead, he directly ordered several dishes on the min cuisine menu and said,ââThen Iâll get a sweet ânâ sour ribs, a lychee, a golden thread dried tofu, and a serving of egg-fried rice. You should have these, right?â
Thinking of the deliciousness of the egg fried rice he had eaten several years ago, Li Cheng felt that he couldnât resist the taste and wanted to try it again to see if it was the same taste as before.
âYes, we do. These dishes donât need to be pre-ordered. Are these the dishes?â
After getting Li Chengâs affirmative answer, su Ruoyan directly said,âplease wait a moment.â Then, she tore off the menu and handed it to Yuan Zhou who was in the kitchen.
Li Cheng noticed that he had to write the menu on a piece of paper now. When he came to eat, the waiter reported the order and found a different place.
After Yuan Zhou got the menu, he raised his head to confirm and then saw Li Chengâs familiar face. He was already 25 years old when he came here and his facial features had been fixed. Even if several years had passed, no matter how much he changed, his facial features would never change, unless he had plastic surgery.
However, Yuan Zhou felt that although Li Chengâs face was not just a little bit worse than his, he didnât need to undergo plastic surgery. He recognized him at a glance. Then, he subconsciously looked around and didnât find Zhang Xu, who was wearing work clothes and covered in mud. Only then did he realize that this wasnât li Cheng inviting Zhang Xu to dinner again.
Yuan Zhou had heard the story of the snow Cake. Although everyone had different understandings and ways of dealing with it, it also directly led to different paths in life in the future. Yuan Zhou felt that Li Cheng and Zhang Xu were not wrong. They were just looking at problems from their own standpoint and thinking about the problems before doing things.
Since he didnât see Zhang Xu, Yuan Zhou continued to cook after confirming Li Chengâs taste.
âShua shua shuaâ
The knife in his hand was spinning, emitting a silver light. It was so fast that only an afterimage was left behind. The customers sitting at the bar counter who wanted to watch and eat were very satisfied.
Many people felt that not only did eating Yuan Zhouâs dishes feel very good and even somewhat healing, but even watching Yuan Zhou cook made them feel their entire soul become quiet. No matter if they were sad, happy, disappointed or any other emotions, they would all be thrown to the back of their minds and would not be affected anymore.
Qin Yun was one of the people who especially liked to watch Yuan Zhou cook to heal herself. She didnât order many dishes every time. Basically, she would order a vegetarian dish and a bowl of plain rice, with the limit of 200 yuan. Sometimes, she would only order one vegetarian dish and a few steamed buns for a meal. The main purpose was to watch Yuan Zhou cook.
With a large kitchen knife in hand, no matter if it was slicing, cutting, scraping, or changing the cutting method, everything was done with one kitchen knife. As he watched, he felt that nothing was undefeatable. If there was, he would watch Yuan Zhou cook with ease and his heart would be filled with courage again.
Today, Qin Yun had come because he had failed to apply for a promotion again. He did not order a new dish. He only ordered a simple plate of mapo tofu. He had brought two large white steamed buns with him. When paired with the bright red and steaming hot tofu, he felt his mouth salivate just thinking about it.
