The braised chicken and rice was already a pleasant surprise to everyone, and at the same time, it also raised everyone's expectations.
If the chef were to only present a single dish, then the braised chicken and rice would definitely be an unforgettable dish.
However, the customers would always have higher expectations and more requirements for the same chef. Therefore, whether the second dish would be a surprise or an ordinary one had already become a matter of curiosity in the hearts of the people present.
Judging from the king's reaction after finishing the entire braised chicken and rice, it was clear that he was very pleased with the chef that the second prince had hired. This was clearly a very beneficial thing for the second prince.
"This dish is called the black pepper steak. Chef Meg said that this dish should be sliced with a knife and fork before dipping into the sauce." The attendant carried the steak over to the king in a respectful manner before removing the lid, and the aroma of the steak and wine quickly swept through the entire hall like a tornado.
The king's eyes lit up slightly. He didn't have any other hobbies, but he just couldn't live without the small things in his cup, and wine was his favorite.
Even though it wasn't to the point of addiction, it had already become a habit for him to fall asleep without drinking a glass of wine every night.
The aroma of the wine wafting from the steak was not inferior in the slightest to that of the premium wine that he had ordered from the Buffett Winery. Perhaps it was because the steak had been cooked together with the steak, but the aroma of the wine seemed to be even richer than that of his wine.
His stomach, which was already somewhat full, started to squirm uncontrollably. He raised his hand and the maid beside him quickly walked over. She picked up the knife and fork and carefully cut the steak into small pieces that were just enough to eat.
Abraham took a deep breath, and an intoxicated look appeared on his face as he said, "What an intoxicating aroma of wine. After combining it with the steak, it doesn't feel out of place at all. In fact, it even makes me feel a little intoxicated."
"Your Highness, you've picked up a treasure!" Abraham's eyes were fixed on the steak in front of Josh, and his salivating smile was quite obvious.
Josh only hesitated momentarily before turning to the female servant with a smile, and said, "Duke Abraham has always been a foodie, and Josh is pretty much done eating already. Bring this black pepper steak to the duke."
"Really?" Abraham's eyes immediately lit up.
"Of course." Josh nodded with a smile.
The maid respectfully picked up the steak, walked to Abraham, and put it down respectfully.
"Thank you, Second Prince." Abraham expressed his gratitude before sitting down and taking a deep sniff. The aroma of the beef was enhanced by the wine, and there was a unique aroma that elevated the aroma to a whole new level.
It was the aroma of black pepper!
As a veteran foodie, he was naturally no stranger to black pepper.
Perhaps it was because this spice was too expensive. Until now, he had never seen a chef who used black pepper to amaze him. They only used black pepper in cooking to bring some special fragrance to the food.
However, at this moment, he found this feeling!
After the unique aroma of the black pepper blended with the aroma of the beef, it was so harmonious and alluring. It was as if everything was supposed to be like this, and it was so natural that it was hard to extricate oneself from it.
"This is simply a genius idea!"
Abraham couldn't help but praise as he picked up his knife and fork without any hesitation. He carefully sliced off a small piece of beef as if it were a work of art before placing it into his mouth.
The beef was even more tender than he had imagined, and as soon as he bit into it, the juices of the meat and red wine flowed out before combining with the black pepper sauce in his mouth. It was as if a magic caster had cast an explosive spell in his mouth, and his calm taste buds were in ecstasy. The rich layers of flavors made him feel as if he were constantly spinning on a delicious roulette, and every second was a wonderful and unique experience.
After swallowing, he felt as if a ball of warmth had flowed down his throat, and even his stomach had become warm. It was so comfortable that he almost wanted to moan.
"What a wonderful taste, a warm and wonderful experience. It's simply irresistible. Is this chef the devil?"
Abraham sliced off a second piece of beef before placing it into his mouth, and he closed his eyes to carefully savor this wonderful experience.
This was the most amazing and delicious food he had tasted during this banquet.
The roast beef from the day before was also delicious, but compared to this steak, it was more suitable to be eaten at street stalls.
In contrast, sitting in this lavish palace and eating a black pepper steak with a knife and fork was a very elegant and graceful sight to behold.
Irina appraised the steak before her, and asked, "Aside from roast beef, does he know how to cook beef like this?"
"Let me try and see how this steak tastes compared to yesterday's roast beef." Irina sliced off a small piece of beef and put it into her mouth. Her eyes lit up at first, then slowly curved into small crescent moons. A joyful smile appeared on her face, and after swallowing, she even stuck out her pink tongue to lick her lips.
"As expected of my man, no matter what he cooks, he's always so good at it. It tastes completely different from roast beef, but it's just as delicious!"
Irina opened her eyes, and an indescribably sweet feeling welled up in her heart. She then sliced off another piece of beef and placed it into her mouth before chewing happily. The smile on her face had Josh completely entranced.
"Sigh, as expected, no one can resist Father's charm after tasting his cooking." Amy looked at Irina and shook her head before turning her gaze to Josh. She then followed his gaze back to Irina, and her brows furrowed as she murmured, "Could it be that this little white mouse is lusting after my beautiful Big Sister Irina? No! She belongs to Father! I'll keep an eye on you! "
"Where did the second prince find this chef? His culinary skills are so good that even His Majesty is so pleased with him."
"Indeed, this is more pleasing to His Majesty than any other gift. The second prince is truly very thoughtful."
The officials who were familiar with each other were discussing quietly among themselves. Josh had clearly achieved his goal with this dish offering.
"Luna, could this chef be the Mr. Meg that you were talking about?" The elderly man sitting beside Luna asked with a surprised expression. According to Luna, Mr. Meg had only come to Rodu at the invitation of the second prince. However, a prodigy with astonishing aptitude for mathematics was also an astonishingly talented chef?
"Yes, Grandfather. He is Mr. Meg. His main job is as an exceptional chef and restaurant owner, and mathematics is his hobby.
Byron Field faltered slightly upon hearing this before sighing with emotion as he said, "He's able to reach heights that others would never be able to reach with just his hobby. I'm looking forward to meeting this young man more and more."
"Indeed, he's a prodigy." Luna nodded as a hint of reverence appeared in her eyes at the thought of that gentle and talented man.
…
"This one is for His Majesty, these two are for the first prince and second prince, this one is for the elven princess, this one is for Master Crassus, and the rest are for all of our esteemed guests. They all have different tastes, so make sure you don't mix them up."
Meg issued a serious reminder to the servants before looking on with a sweet smile on his face.
