"It should be the braised mutton that you ordered, right?" Paul's eyes were glued to the dish, and the plate didn't move.
Then, he immediately copied Summer's actions and started eating first. Actually, if Paul didn't start first, Summer wouldn't have started either, because in his heart, Yuan Zhou was such a person, so he felt that what Paul said was right.
Once Paul started eating, he couldn't stop. No matter who ordered the dish, it belonged to the person who ate it.
He had a self-sacrificing look on his face. If I don't go to hell, who will?
The grass-green color was fresh and natural, and the yellow meat slices on top were neither paper-thin, nor thick like a finger, but somewhere in between. The thickness was even, and the texture on the beautiful color was clear, making people feel as if it was a deliberately rendered pattern. It was very beautiful.
Regardless of anything else, he had to recognize the dish first and get the right to eat first. He wanted to eat his own dish alone, but they were sitting at the same table, and they had a good relationship. Everyone ordered together. Not only did Paul want to eat his dish, but he also wanted to eat the names of the dishes that Paul had ordered.
Sometimes, one's luck really couldn't be stopped. This Coriander Burst Powder Pill was indeed the dish that Paul had ordered earlier.
With the help of the increased horsepower, the braised mutton that looked like a lot was finished in no time. Other than the empty plate, there was really nothing left. There were no seasonings, and the original taste was better than countless dishes.
Since they both wanted to eat, there was only an equivalent exchange. Otherwise, he didn't want to lose out, and Paul didn't want to lose out either. A fair exchange was naturally the only choice.
"You've eaten all these dishes before?" Paul asked curiously.
…
Different from the rich aroma of food that was stimulated by cooking on a large fire, this aroma was more domineering, and it was meaningful and fragrant enough.
The combination of the thousand-layered mutton tripe and the unique fragrance of coriander was definitely not only very pleasing to the eye, but also very desirable.
Summer nodded and said, "I think so too, so I'll eat first. After all, it's my dish."
Before they said more than two sentences, Paul and Summer suddenly began to move, turning their heads towards the partition in unison. It was really too fragrant.
Now Paul knew he was wrong. This braised mutton was actually so elegant on the inside. Just like its gorgeous appearance, the taste inside was also very amazing.
Unlike the lamb with soy sauce just now, it was hard to tell who ordered this dish from the surface, but Paul had his own way of doing it.
At first, it was a little pungent, but when he smelled it again, he felt that it was very intoxicating. It was extremely clear and thick. Originally, they were opposites, but now, they were united together. That was why it was so vulgar.
Although its color was refreshing and distinct, if it wasn't for the sparkling and translucent oil stains on its surface, it would be an exaggeration to say that it hadn't been cooked. Moreover, it smelled so strange that Paul felt that it would be delicious even if it was raw.
Who knew that Xia Ma was very straightforward and said, "I haven't eaten before, I will eat with you. We are friends, we should share blessings and misfortunes together."
White and bright green collided with each other, like two opposing tastes fusing together. It was both bright and natural, as if they were meant to be together.
But exchange was exchange, no matter what, the right to eat first had to be in his hands. No wonder these two had such a good relationship. Sometimes, even without rehearsing, they could know each other's thoughts. Therefore, other than enemies, the ones who understood you the most were friends who were enemies and friends. In fact, Summer and Paul's relationship was almost like this.
They ate one after the other, their speed was about the same, and they ate about the same amount. But once Paul started eating, he couldn't stop.
When the delicate mutton was placed in his mouth, the salty and fragrant taste was very delicious. It was thin but not filling the teeth, fat but not greasy. It wasn't to the extent that it would melt in the mouth, but with a light bite, it could be broken, which proved that it was still somewhat neat.
Just now, Summer mentioned a lot of delicious dishes, mainly because the names sounded very interesting. Although he hadn't eaten them before, they were most likely delicious.
As for Paul, after Summer ate a piece, he started to eat as well. Coincidentally, he also used his hands to eat, and the chopsticks became a decoration.
Paul really didn't understand Chinese culture, but the last sentence didn't sound pleasing to his ears. However, he couldn't find anything wrong with it. He could only secretly make up his mind to learn some Chinese culture to understand it. He felt that Xia Ma was treating him like a fool, but he didn't have any evidence.
"Alright, please wait for a moment." Su Ruoyan quickly recorded it down, passed the menu to Yuan Zhou, and went to order for the others.
Looking at Summer's proficiency in ordering just now, Paul felt that maybe Summer had eaten this before, or else how could he be so proficient.
The fat and lean meat were almost the same, both were plump and chewy, and there was still some juice inside. It didn't feel dry, and the warm temperature made the meat even more fresh. There wasn't any fishy smell that mutton should have, but instead, there was a strong fragrance. The taste was more salty, and it completely ignited the taste buds. After eating a few pieces, he felt hungrier the more he ate, and he was already very much looking forward to the next dish.
When he had eaten the Beautiful Heaven and Earth Dish previously, he had felt that it was already the pinnacle of Yuan Zhou's culinary skills. However, he had never expected that a dish that looked ordinary on the surface, apart from its nice color and excellent knife skills, wouldn't be as amazing as the Beautiful Heaven and Earth Dish. That was a dish made of four ingredients using only one ingredient. There was nothing more shocking than that.
Before he could say it, a strange fragrance swept the tip of his nose, causing his nose that was immersed in the rich and salty taste to be immediately conquered by the new smell.
It turned out that the original taste of mutton was so fresh and delicious. In the past, using those seasonings to match mutton was simply a waste of resources. Starting from this plate of mutton, he felt that mutton should only taste like this in the future.
"That dish was ordered by you, so this one will definitely be ordered by me. It's only fair that we each order one dish. Head Chef Yuan is obviously a fair and just person," Paul said before Summer could say anything.
When he ordered, he didn't know what each dish was. But because there were English annotations at the bottom of each dish, even if he didn't know the specific dish, he would still have a rough guess. Now that he saw the dish and confirmed his guess, he naturally had an idea.
As he got closer, the fragrance became more and more fragrant. The fragrance of the bean sauce assaulted his nostrils, causing him to want to reach out his paw, no, his hand, to grab a piece and eat it.
The story was a bit long, so he wouldn't go into it here.
Without waiting for Paul to say anything, Summer started eating by himself. He felt that it would be faster this way, so he picked up a piece of mutton and put it into his mouth.
"Hiss, an ordinary mutton tastes so good. This is truly satisfying," Paul felt that he had truly broadened his horizons during this trip to China.
