Of course, no matter how delicious it was, everyone was more restrained. Except for the really hot ones, they basically just drank a bowl. They were not the kind of people who would shamelessly take advantage of others. Even if it was free, they would not casually make it. The customers all knew this in their hearts.
Many media outlets claimed that the customers of The Kitchen God were the most well-mannered customers. In fact, this quality was mutual.
With the sour plum powder made by Yuan Zhou and the thoughtful arrangement of the Queuing Committee, everyone could not only enjoy the delicious food happily, but also prevent heatstroke and other diseases. It was killing many birds with one stone. Therefore, even in the hot summer, The Kitchen God was still crowded without exception.
The boisterous lunchtime passed slowly amidst the banter of the customers. After sending off the last customer, Yuan Zhou called Su Ruoyan who wanted to stay and watch the restaurant away. Then, he packed up and prepared to set off.
As long as no one came to look for him, it was very safe to stay in the restaurant. Therefore, even if the door was open, Yuan Zhou would be at ease if there was no one.
The whole street of The Kitchen God on Taoxi Road was protected by everyone. Everyone knew that there would be no Taoxi Road without The Kitchen God. Therefore, they would definitely protect the light source.
Even Director Wu would patrol Taoxi Road several times a day, especially the area around The Kitchen God, which was absolutely of utmost importance.
Yuan Zhou usually left through the back door. Once, he did not pay attention and left through the front door, which was caught by Wuhai. Then, Wuhai followed him. Actually, it was not a big deal. He was just going out to eat delicious food. That day, the restaurant was close and he planned to walk there. However, Wuhai had no sense of direction and Yuan Zhou was not sensitive to directions.
Well, when it was almost dinnertime, the two people still could not find the correct place.
Yuan Zhou felt that Wuhai would be able to sense his judgment. As the future Master Chef, he could not be disturbed by external factors.
"Sir, go to the intersection near Sansheng Village. It's here." Yuan Zhou showed the recorded address to the driver as soon as he got on the car.
"I'm very familiar with this place. Sit tight, we'll depart immediately." The driver immediately knew where they were.
"Young man, do you want to take the Second Ring Highway or the Third Ring Highway? Either way is fine," the driver asked with a smile.
"Let's see which road is clear of traffic. Master, you can decide," Yuan Zhou said directly.
"Okay, let me have a look." The master readily agreed.
Today, the few taxi drivers that he was familiar with were all busy. Yuan Zhou had casually hailed a taxi, so the taxi driver had gone through the process of asking.
The driver today was a little young, around 40 years old. He was very smart. Seeing that Yuan Zhou was resting with his eyes closed, he immediately adjusted the music in the car to a soft, pure music. He drove the car steadily and accurately.
The journey wasn't very long, and it was about the same as he had estimated. He arrived at his destination in about 35 minutes.
There were many places to eat here. Yuan Zhou had been here two or three times, so he was quite familiar with the roads.
The driver found the right place. He directly stopped the car diagonally opposite the restaurant. He could see it as soon as he got off the car.
After bidding farewell to the driver, Yuan Zhou walked straight to the small restaurant across the road.
It was not a small restaurant. It belonged to the suburbs and was probably a place that hosted wedding banquets, birthday banquets, and other kinds of banquets. Just the appearance of the shop was not small. It was like a manor.
Although the name was ordinary, the place was spacious. There was a table at the door, and a spirited young man in a neat uniform stood there.
"Sir, are you here to eat? How many?" The young man noticed Yuan Zhou and immediately went up to greet them with a considerate attitude.
"One. I want to taste the signature dish," Yuan Zhou said.
"This way, please. If you want to eat, you can eat in this small hall. Don't worry, the dishes are all the same." The young man turned around and pointed in a direction before leading the way.
As soon as he entered the restaurant, he saw there were many green plants inside. It was not an exaggeration to say that trees were everywhere. There was a flower bed in a few steps, where there were short and strong shrubs, blooming flowers, and green tender grass.
Yuan Zhou followed the young man for a few steps and arrived at the small hall in five minutes. It was probably different from the place for receiving banquets. It was a special place for receiving individual guests. Although there were many tables, chairs, and benches arranged like a banquet hall, it was different from the big round table for banquets. There were three types of tables inside, a small table for four, a medium table for six, and a big table for ten.
After the young man led Yuan Zhou to a small table for four and sat down, a graceful girl dressed in a cheongsam came.
"Please have a look. What would you like to eat?" While speaking, the waitress handed the menu with a big crab drawn on it to Yuan Zhou.
"Hua La, Hua La"
The menu was relatively thick. Although all the dishes were related to crabs, the cooking methods were different. Fried, braised, steamed, stir-fried, and braised were all on the list.
There were also many signature dishes. Yuan Zhou looked at the menu for a few times and decided on his target. "I want a crab stewed chicken and a crab steamed egg. That's all."
After estimating his appetite, Yuan Zhou ordered three dishes. They were neither too big nor too small and he should be able to finish them all.
"Okay. Please wait a moment." After saying that, the waitress walked toward the kitchen with the written menu.
Yuan Zhou drank a mouthful of the barley tea that had just been poured on the table and looked around. Probably because it was in the afternoon, there were only a few tables. There were only about ten people in total. It seemed that they were all drinking wine. Their faces and necks were a little red, but they were still well-mannered and didn't make a scene.
The serving speed of the crab restaurant was considered moderate. Just when Yuan Zhou was still thinking about the cooking methods of the three dishes in his mind, the dishes were served. It had been about 20 minutes since Yuan Zhou ordered the dishes.
The first dish was served. To be honest, if it weren't for the smell of eggs, Yuan Zhou wouldn't have known it was crab stewed egg.
The main reason was that the shape really didn't look like stewed egg. Generally, the crab stewed egg was chosen from swimming crabs. There were golden stewed eggs in the big bowl and crabs arranged as a whole. It could be regarded as a classic crab stewed egg.
However, the crab stewed egg in the crab restaurant was absolutely unique because it was served on a plate with a whole crab in it. If one had to say something special, it would probably be a crab with its legs facing the sky.
The eight crab legs were curled up on its body steadily. Under the contrast of the red and glossy crab shell, it looked particularly well-behaved.
"Please take your time and enjoy. This is crab stewed egg." The waitress placed a porcelain spoon on the plate in front of Yuan Zhou.
When it was near, Yuan Zhou found the obvious splicing marks on the crab's belly. Probably for the smoothness of the splicing, the crab shell at the bottom was divided into four pieces and the cross-shaped incision was very conspicuous.
After thinking for a while, Yuan Zhou directly took a pair of chopsticks. After he first scalded the chopsticks with water, he directly pried them at the cross-shaped intersection point skillfully. Then, the four pieces of crab shell revealed the contents inside as if they had agreed beforehand.
The inside of the whole crab was hollowed out. Now, it was full of glistening yellow eggs with some orange, red and white decorations and some finely chopped green onions on the surface. This chef was really creative.
The snow-white and fine crab meat, a small amount of orange-red crab roe and pure yellow eggs were matched together. Not to mention the taste, the color was pretty good.
