He couldn't help tasting it carefully in his mouth. The taste became stronger. It wasn't as overbearing as the chili, but the mellow fragrance of the sesame and the pure and fresh taste of the mutton made Boss Liu feel another extreme.
"Even the bland hotpot is so delicious." Boss Liu felt he really learned something today.
People needed to go out and have a walk. It wasn't a good way to do things behind closed doors. Delicious food could be found everywhere, especially in Chengdu.
Stimulated by the delicious taste, Boss Liu completely forgot his intention to talk to Jiang Changxi just now and devoted himself to the great business of eating mutton. Not to mention that he had a chance to talk to Jiang Changxi, even if Jiang Changxi talked to him personally, Boss Liu would probably not answer her until the mutton in the plate was finished. Otherwise, what if she asked him to eat mutton? It was safer to eat the mutton in the stomach.
Fortunately, Jiang Changxi didn't know Boss Liu's little calculation in his mind. Otherwise, she would definitely eat a few more plates to show her sincerity. His half plate was not enough for her.
Jiang Changxi's side was bustling with people. Each person had a plate of mutton, cabbage and tofu. She was very busy. The other nine tables were not inferior to her, either.
They all wished the food could be cooked as soon as it was put into the pot so that they could take it out and eat it immediately. If it weren't for the hairy bear watching at the side, Wuhai would probably scoop all the cooked food in the pot into his own bowl.
Even if not all the food could be scooped into the bowl, the two beasts, Wu Shou and Hairy Bear, put the people at this table under the most pressure. It wasn't that they didn't fear that there wasn't enough to eat. Since Yuan Zhou said that they could eat before 8: 00, he wouldn't go back on his words. However, everyone would feel speechless if they could only scoop up less than 10% of the ingredients into their bowls every time.
Among all the tables eating hotpot, Wuhai's table was the liveliest.
There were also people eating hotpot in a gentle manner. For example, Qu Yue's table. It was the first time for her to eat hotpot. Qu Yue chose the Chaoshan yak meat hotpot that she had been longing for for a long time.
Even if he wasn't in Chaoshan, Qu Yue knew that Yuan Zhou's dishes were definitely the most authentic ones in Master Chef Restaurant. Therefore, she didn't have any other worries. Her only worry was that her stomach was too small and couldn't contain a satisfactory amount of food.
"I've just walked 10,000 meters and I'm wearing high heels. I must have consumed a lot of energy. I can eat more." Before eating, Qu Yue was still calculating how much she could eat.
But when the food entered his mouth, all other thoughts flew away, leaving only the instinct to eat. Just like a robot, he stuffed the food into his mouth, scalded it again, and stuffed it again, almost without stopping.
Most of Qu Yue's table was made up of the restaurant's regulars, but they weren't very familiar with each other. At most, they were acquaintances who nodded at each other. Some of them had never seen each other before. Only two beautiful women with excellent figures and temperament were Qu Yue's colleagues and good friends. They stood out from the crowd and looked different from ordinary people.
Logically speaking, such a combination should be a little awkward. But not so. Hotpot was indeed the best way to improve their relationship. After eating a plate of beef, the familiarity between them instantly multiplied. Even if it wasn't cooked, it had to be cooked. After eating each other's dishes, the dishes should be cooked no matter what.
Li Xi was one of the five lucky people chosen by Qu Yue. As a slightly famous fashion designer, her income wasn't bad. At least, she could eat the food of the restaurant every day without any pressure. However, the hotpot of the restaurant wasn't something that she could eat whenever she wanted.
Previously, when only the Spicy Hot Pot Base was served, she had brought many dishes here to eat. Of course, Li Xi had a normal taste. At least, the dishes in the Spicy Hot Pot Base were all meat, fish, or seafood. She wouldn't want to eat more vegetables.
Now that there was a comprehensive hotpot, Li Xi naturally wanted to eat it. Although she didn't win the lottery, she was satisfied with the result. She got a free ride from Qu Yue and could eat hotpot here.
Moreover, as a Chaoshan person, she was really touched to be able to eat the authentic yak meat hotpot here.
Strong meatballs, different parts of beef, as well as beef offal, gave people different feelings in different places. The time it took to heat them was also different. As someone who had eaten it many times, Li Xi took on the role of the chief commander of the entire table.
She taught the people at the table how many seconds it took for each part to taste the best. She made sure that everyone could eat the most delicious beef. Everyone was very grateful for Li Xi's sharing, which could be seen from the fact that her dishes were rarely snatched.
Looking at the harmonious atmosphere at the table, Li Xi thought to herself, "It seems that if I still can't win the lottery next time, and someone else here can win the lottery, I should be able to get another spot."
Thinking of this, Li Xi couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. It was worth it for her to suppress her desire to eat with all her might. She had already planned for the next spot even before she finished eating this time.
Of course, there were many people present who had the same idea as Li Xi. However, everyone was doing it secretly and wouldn't bring it to the table. It wasn't that they were embarrassed, but if everyone knew about it and did it, their chances would definitely decrease. Only a fool would give up the chance to eat more of the delicacies cooked by Yuan Zhou.
Meanwhile, Yuan Zhou looked at the happy and lively scene in the restaurant and was very happy.
"It seems that everyone is very supportive of the new hotpot dish," Yuan Zhou said.
The movements of his hands didn't change at all. With a light touch of the knife, a piece of beef with distinct texture and beautiful color was smoothly sliced into the prepared plate on the other side.
Even when preparing the various ingredients for the hotpot, Yuan Zhou didn't ask others to do it. Whether it was the cutting of the cattle and sheep, the washing of the tripe, or the preparation of other vegetables, Yuan Zhou was busy but not messy. He did it himself.
Even if the ingredients were not put into the pot, they still looked very beautiful and exquisite. They could even be put on display.
For the customers who had already eaten so much that they couldn't wait to pour the whole plate into the pot, they naturally wouldn't pay attention to other places.
Even if they noticed it, they would eat it as a sign of respect.
The hot pot was served from noon to the end of the dinner service. Therefore, after most of the diners filled up their stomachs, they subconsciously slowed down their eating speed. They wanted to eat more. If they ate slower, they would be able to digest what they had eaten earlier and eat more. Everyone knew this, so they all slowed down their eating speed.
When the customers slowed down, Yuan Zhou could also take a break.
Because it was the activity of the Hotpot Day, he and Yin Ya also had hotpot for lunch. Of course, it was different from the others. He chose the old-fashioned hotpot. He ate the dishes stacked inside first and then began to add other dishes that he wanted to boil.
In fact, the most convenient thing about hotpot was that no matter what kind of hotpot you ate, as long as you could find what you wanted to boil and eat it, you didn't have to care about anything else. It was very casual and free.
