Early in the morning, Yuan Zhou's left eye kept twitching when he woke up. Yuan Zhou was not used to it.
"Huh? Is it because I read too late, or is something good coming? "Yuan Zhou rubbed his eyes and got up to wash up.
Now, Yuan Zhou would no longer close his eyes and wash up like he used to. The long period of early morning exercise had formed a biological clock in his body. He would wake up automatically at 5: 30 am
As usual, there were many customers for breakfast. Ruan Xiaoqing was among the girls in sportswear. She and Xia Yu looked strangely harmonious when they stood together.
Not far behind them, Ling Hong looked at them with a face full of smiles. This scene made Yuan Zhou take a few more glances.
When breakfast time started, the moment Ling Hong entered the restaurant, Yuan Zhou said, "You have been coming here more often recently."
"Really? I always come here more often, "Ling Hong felt a little guilty when he was stared at by Yuan Zhou. He couldn't help rubbing his head and emphasized.
"Yes, a lot. Especially recently," Yuan Zhou said with a nod.
"Ahem. What's for breakfast today?" Ling Hong clumsily changed the topic.
"Hot and Sour Noodles," Yuan Zhou said.
"That's good. The Black Beast likes it," Ling Hong immediately pulled Wuhai over and said.
"Of course. Let go. No discount, Ling." Wuhai pulled his clothes out from Ling Hong's hand.
This time, Yuan Zhou didn't say anything. He took a look at Ling Hong and returned to the kitchen.
"Compass's aura is getting stronger and stronger. Even I feel a little guilty," Ling Hong couldn't help but wipe the sweat off his forehead.
Yuan Zhou looked at Ruan Xiaoqing who was secretly paying attention to them. Then, he glanced at Ling Hong and sighed inwardly, "Looks like I'm going to get another serving of dog food?"
When it was almost nine o 'clock, Yuan Zhou announced that breakfast time was over. After watching the customers leave one by one, Zhou Jia and Cheng Ying also left early because they needed to help with the tea party.
At 9: 05 pm, the branch became quiet, leaving Yuan Zhou alone.
"Is Head Chef Yuan here?" An old man with a round face and a gentle expression, dressed in a dark green cotton coat, appeared at the entrance of the shop and asked.
Yuan Zhou, who was about to go upstairs to wash up, paused and turned to go downstairs. "Yes, you are?"
"Ah, it's indeed Head Chef Yuan. You're really young and promising," the old man said after carefully sizing up Yuan Zhou.
"Thank you." Yuan Zhou nodded to express his gratitude, then asked again, "You are?"
"Oh right, I forgot to introduce myself. My mistake." The old man slapped his big head in annoyance. Then, he walked into the restaurant and looked at Yuan Zhou with a gentle gaze. "I'm Hang Tian. I'm good at cooking Huaiyang cuisine. I'm quite famous in Jiangnan."
"You're Master Hang Tian? You're the person in charge of Huaiyang Cuisine's national banquet last year. That Three-Course Duck dish was extremely amazing, "Yuan Zhou paused for a while and then said solemnly," You are very famous. "
That's right. Just like what Yuan Zhou said, Hang Tian was not just famous. He was extremely famous. He was the current chairman of Huaiyang Cuisine and the person in charge of two national banquets. He had met many national leaders and could be said to be a master chef on the same level as Zhou Shijie.
"Hahaha, Chairman Zhang Yan is right. You are a very serious young man," Hang Tian couldn't help but laugh when he saw the serious look on Yuan Zhou's face.
"Please wait a moment," Yuan Zhou suddenly said.
"Oh? What's wrong? "Hang Tian looked at Yuan Zhou and asked.
"I need to wash up a little. The breakfast time in my restaurant has just ended," Yuan Zhou said earnestly. Then, he turned on the tap and started to wash his hands.
Yuan Zhou had always been very meticulous when washing his hands. Hang Tian didn't feel that he was disrespected. Instead, he felt that Yuan Zhou's serious look was a sign of his sincere love for cooking. Therefore, he also watched Yuan Zhou wash his hands earnestly.
About three minutes later, Yuan Zhou wiped his hands dry. Then, he quickly opened the partition and walked to Hang Tian.
Although Yuan Zhou wasn't good at socializing, Hang Tian had come all the way here. Moreover, he came to visit him so early in the morning and had even specifically stated his identity. Naturally, he was here to exchange culinary skills.
Besides, the two master chefs were naturally here to exchange culinary skills.
"Master Hang, please come in," after saying that, Yuan Zhou turned sideways and opened the sergestes wall view door.
"I have long heard that Head Chef Yuan's restaurant is small but has a whole new world of its own. It turns out to be so." Hang Tian nodded his head and then followed Yuan Zhou into the small courtyard.
"This is the courtyard of the pub. I wonder what brings you here, Master Hang?" Yuan Zhou led him to the stone table and then asked.
"Let's not talk about other things first. Head Chef Yuan, are you going to serve me a cup of tea?" Hang Tian looked at Yuan Zhou and asked with a smile.
"You don't like the spring water?" Yuan Zhou asked in puzzlement.
That's right. Yuan Zhou naturally poured water for Hang Tian. This water was what Yuan Zhou usually drank. However, he didn't use it to make tea.
"This water is naturally very good. The water is sweet and light without any peculiar smell. This water is naturally good water. But I heard that you are going to hold a tea party soon?" Hang Tian sipped his saliva and said with a smile.
Yuan Zhou understood what he meant and immediately said, "Master Hang, you are welcome to come and drink tea at that time."
"Thank you so much, Head Chef Yuan," Hang Tian said happily.
"You are welcome," Yuan Zhou said.
"But I was too impulsive this time. It's my first time here and I already asked for an invitation. I know that there are many people who want this invitation," Hang Tian said with slight embarrassment.
This time, Yuan Zhou didn't answer. Instead, he changed the topic and asked, "I wonder why Master Hang is here today?"
"It's a long story. I feel that old fellow Zhou Shijie has hidden you too deeply. You have a calm temperament and have never participated in activities unrelated to cooking. That's why I have a direct understanding of you recently, Head Chef Yuan," Hang Tian said unhurriedly.
"You mean?" Yuan Zhou asked.
"During the Cuisine Exchange some time ago, Chairman Zhang brought a video of you discussing Sichuan Cuisine with him. The knife skills of the Translucent Beef Slices were extremely exquisite," Hang Tian said.
This time, without waiting for Yuan Zhou to ask, Hang Tian continued, "Even though it was only a video, all the chefs present were very surprised. Such a thick and big piece of beef was directly cut in one cut instead of using a knife. This was something that not many people present were able to do. Chairman Zhang was truly in the limelight."
"In the past, although we old fellows knew of your existence, we were still far away from you. We had never thought that Head Chef Yuan would be able to reach the level that we have reached in our lifetime at such a young age. In my opinion, there will be many people coming to look for Head Chef Yuan in the future," Hang Tian lamented.
Hang Tian revealed that the true understanding of the grandmasters in the culinary circle started from that video. Moreover, they had a correct understanding of his culinary skills and that was where his fame came from.
"Master Hang, you are overpraising me. I am still far from that level," Yuan Zhou said seriously.
"No, it's Head Chef Yuan's goal that is too high. No wonder Zhou Shijie is like that. Head Chef Yuan, you are the only one I have ever seen who is serious about cooking." Hang Tian was a shrewd person. How could he not see that Yuan Zhou was not being modest when he said that he was far from that level?
"Alright, I have said enough. Let's talk about the purpose of my visit today," Hang Tian's gentle and amiable face turned solemn as he said, "I want to exchange knife skills with Head Chef Yuan."
"Okay," Yuan Zhou nodded.
