While Bai Lang was in a daze, lunchtime arrived. He was in the third line, so he could only watch as others entered the restaurant one by one.
"Should I eat Braised Rice Pot, Boiled Chicken Braised Rice Pot, or Black Bean Pork Ribs Rice? Should I eat all of them? "Bai Lang felt that he could eat all of them.
But on second thought, he would be blacklisted if he couldn't finish them all.
Of course, there were many people like Bai Lang who couldn't decide, such as the man behind him.
He was around 40 years old and dressed in a formal suit, as if he had just come out from a meeting or banquet.
Of course, his age was only a guess. He might be in a hurry to grow. But he wasn't as calm as Bai Lang, muttering, "Wu Jiang Tofu Fish, Tianma Duck Pigeon, Sautéed Ham, Kaili Sour Soup Fish, Chili Chicken, Xi Feng Yang Lang Chicken. These are all very famous."
"If I remember correctly, the best chicken in Qian Province is Head Chef Yuan's disciple. Should I eat Yang Lang Chicken first?" the man in the suit couldn't make up his mind.
The best chicken in Qian Province was Ke Sen.
Looking at other people's nicknames, Master Cheng was the King of Sichuan Cuisine.
Wang Mingjie was the leader of the four young heroes, Dashi Xiujie was known as Yuan Zhou, Japan, and Zhang Longquan was known as the King of Cantonese Cuisine.
Even Huang Gang, the Yellow Soup of Cantonese, sounded much better than the best chicken in Qian Province.
Ke Sen was about to have a mental breakdown.
Of course, there was a reason for this. During the Youth Chef Conference, he had tied for first place with Dashi Xiujie with his Xi Feng Yang Lang Chicken. Then, he made it his signature dish because of the shortcomings mentioned by Yuan Zhou.
In Yuan Zhou's words, "Your Yang Lang Chicken is already 90% of mine."
Xi Feng Yang Lang Chicken was known as the best chicken in the world. Therefore, the title of the best chicken in Qian Province referred to Ke Sen.
"Let's eat Yang Lang Chicken. It's also the signature dish of this restaurant."
"Brother, this is your first time here, right? Head Chef Yuan doesn't have any signature dishes here. Everything on the menu is his signature dish," Bai Lang said righteously.
He acted like an experienced person, as if he didn't even remember that this was his first time here. All he knew was what he read on the internet.
This was the Old Driver Yun.
"Err …" The man in the suit was stunned, and then he explained, "No, I'm talking about eating the signature dishes of my restaurant. I know that Boss Yuan's restaurant is good."
"In the shop? Brother, you have a shop too? Where is your shop? I have a shop too. "Bai Lang's eyes lit up. He had found someone in the same industry.
"What a coincidence. What do you want to eat?" The man in the suit's attitude became better after he heard that Bai Lang was also a restaurant owner.
"I'm running a restaurant in Guangdong Province. I'm sorry to say that I was selected to participate in the High Groove Meeting because I asked a question. The High Groove Meeting is an exchange meeting organized by Head Chef Yuan. Very few chefs are able to participate in it every year. It's all by invitation. I'm really sorry," Bai Lang scratched his head in embarrassment.
The man in the suit was stunned. What was this person doing?
"By the way, I plan to eat my signature dish, Steamed Pot Rice, to see if there's a gap between us," said Bai Lang.
It was normal for Bai Lang to show off. Although the Summit Meeting of Famous Chefs had only been held twice, it was already quite famous. There were indeed many tricky questions during the meeting, but they were all solved by Yuan Zhou. For example, during the second meeting, he solved a problem that had been researched by a senior chef for 20 years.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the senior chef started crying on the spot. In the third meeting, there were many 'old' problems.
Therefore, many chefs felt honored to be invited to participate in the meeting. This was a qualification.
"You don't have to look. You're too far away from me. I'm here to participate in the meeting as well. Look at what I'm wearing. Do you think it's considered formal to meet Head Chef Yuan later?" the man in the suit said as he turned around. Huh?
Bai Lang looked at the strict suit on the man in the suit and then at his own casual clothes. It seemed that the man in the suit was of a higher status.
"It's alright. I don't think we should disturb Head Chef Yuan. It's business hours now. It's probably inconvenient," Bai Lang said sincerely.
"You have to pay attention to your first impression," the man in the suit said solemnly.
"You are right. My name is Bai Lang. I opened a Braised Rice Pot Restaurant in Yang Cheng, Guangdong Province, to make a living," Bai Lang said.
"My name is Huang Cai. I opened a restaurant in Anshun, Guizhou Province. I only sell some home-cooked dishes there and can still make a living," the man in the suit, Huang Cai, said modestly.
The two of them spoke politely. How could chefs invited to the High Groove Meeting be able to make a living? It could only be said that they weren't famous enough to make a living.
Bai Lang and Huang Cai exchanged contact information politely and started discussing Yuan Zhou's past. To put it simply, they started bragging about Yuan Zhou. Those that could come to Chengdu to participate in the meeting were naturally people that admired Yuan Zhou's chefs. Out of every 10 sentences, at least three would be about Yuan Zhou. The more they talked, the more they got along well with each other.
Soon, it was their turn to enter the restaurant to eat. Only a table for two was empty. Therefore, the two of them walked over and sat down.
"Head Chef Yuan, you look even younger than in your photos," Huang Cai said with a look of admiration.
"Yeah. When I think of Head Chef Yuan's achievements, I feel like we are all educated in kindergarten. Why is there such a huge difference?" Bai Lang said with a look of admiration.
Ever since the two of them entered, Yuan Zhou had taken a glance at them. His ears were sharp.
"I want Black Bean Sparerib Rice, Sliced Chicken Rice, Cured Rice. Braised Rice will do for all of them," Bai Lang ordered everything.
Huang Cai also ordered crazily. Without even flipping through the menu, he said, "Wujiang Tofu Fish, Stir-Fried Cured Pork, Kaili Sour Soup Fish, Yanglang Chicken. I'll order these first."
"Alright, please wait a moment." After Su Ruoyan memorized the menu for both of them, she returned to the partition and handed the menu over.
Yuan Zhou took a look at the menu and started preparing. Among the dishes, the Braised Rice was the most time-consuming. Therefore, it was the first to be prepared.
A small stove was used to cook the Braised Rice, burning charcoal. Of course, the charcoal wasn't ordinary charcoal. Instead, it was the charcoal provided by the system. It was similar to roast goose and duck, but there were also differences.
"Hua La"
The three pots were washed in just a few moments. After washing the Silk Seedling Rice, he put an appropriate amount of it into the pot and added water. At this time, the fire in the stove was already very hot.
The moment the pots were placed on the stove, a sizzling sound could be heard. It was probably due to the heat and cold.
After placing the pots on the stove, Yuan Zhou started preparing the other dishes. Of course, it wasn't limited to the other ingredients for the Braised Rice. There were also other dishes ordered by others.
He had already figured out a set of rules. Yuan Zhou's cooking was very rhythmic. Although his speed seemed fast, his movements were very natural. His every move was very appropriate.
After a series of quick and fierce attacks, Yuan Zhou grasped the timing and quickly opened the lid. Then, he stacked the ingredients on top of the sparkling white rice.
"Ka"
After stacking the ingredients, Yuan Zhou nimbly covered the lid. The entire process took a very short amount of time. Then, he adjusted the position of the pot slightly. However, he didn't adjust the intensity of the heat.
