People always said that the quality wasn't good enough and they had to make up for it with quantity. Since Jiang Fugui's restaurant had good quality, they had to order more.
While the two of them were looking at the menu seriously, Su Ruoyan finally finished ordering a single customer and came to them.
"Sir, what would you like to order?" Su Ruoyan asked.
As she didn't notice whether they came together or alone, Su Ruoyan just stood in the middle of the table. She was impartial and would take down the order of whoever spoke first.
It was also beneficial to be older and more knowledgeable. For example, Jiang Fugui was the first one to choose what he wanted to eat. When Su Ruoyan asked, he immediately named a bunch of dishes.
"One Sizzling Beef Tenderloin, Fried Scallion Beef, Stir-Fried Celery Beef, Boiled Beef, Translucent Beef Slices, Shacha Beef, Stewed Beef with Potato. I think there's some beef mince here. Give me a serving too," Jiang Fugui said.
"We do have beef mince, but if you can't finish it, you'll be blacklisted. This is the rule of our restaurant," Su Ruoyan reminded him while pointing at the rules beside the vivid lotus flower.
It wasn't that Su Ruoyan felt that Jiang Fugui couldn't finish so many dishes. It was just that the dishes were all made of beef and would be very bloated. Besides, he was a new face, so she reminded him dutifully.
"Oh, got it." Jiang Fugui looked at the clear rules and then said to Jiang Ronghao, "You can order two dishes less. I've already ordered them for you."
As a father, he still had some authority. Although Jiang Ronghao felt helpless, he still nodded calmly to indicate that he got it.
Therefore, he silently filtered out the two dishes that he wasn't sure about and said, "I want a Black Pepper Fillet Steak, a Sirloin Steak with Mushroom Sauce, a Black Pepper T-Bone Steak, and a Stir-Fried Beef. That's all for now."
Jiang Ronghao was lucky. He directly flipped to the Steak Encyclopedia. All the dishes were really made of beef and completely met his requirements. He didn't need to look at the other dishes and just ordered them directly.
"Okay. Please wait a moment, sir." After Su Ruoyan memorized the menu, she reminded him of the rules again. Three steaks weren't something that an average person could finish. Then, she left directly.
"When the dishes arrive later, just put them in the middle and we can eat together. In this way, we can eat all the dishes together and have a better consensus." Jiang Fugui directly arranged.
Obviously, he had not given up on the idea of going against the natural order just now. Now was the time to put it into practice. Although Jiang Ronghao felt that his father was a little whimsical, he had to give his biological father some face.
"Sure, let's eat together then." Jiang Ronghao heaved a sigh of relief.
To be honest, although Jiang Panghu had mostly eaten beef since he was young, it was hard for him to recall the texture of cooked food.
Then, before the dishes were served, the father and son started a series of discussions with a goal in mind, striving to come up with a perfect plan that could achieve their goal.
Just as the father and son were whispering, their dishes were ready.
The first dish served was beef barbecue.
As a classic dish in Chaoshan cuisine, the addition of Shacha sauce made the dish even more colorful.
"You put a lot of effort into this design." Jiang Ronghao's focus wasn't on the aroma, but on the plate presentation.
Beef barbecue was actually just an ordinary stir-fried dish. Theoretically, it could be put on the plate after stir-frying and didn't need any special design.
Actually, that was the case. However, Yuan Zhou's culinary skills were superb. When stir-frying, the beef rotated in the same direction. Even when it was taken out of the wok, it still maintained the same motion. Therefore, after it was put on the plate, every piece of beef was covered with a layer of glossy sauce and placed together in layers. It seemed to be placed randomly and messily, but if one looked carefully, one would find that it was very orderly.
Moreover, the beef slices were of the same thickness and size, which further increased the delicacy. It was no wonder that Jiang Ronghao was astonished.
"My dear cow, let's try the taste first." Jiang Fugui was so tempted by the fragrance that he couldn't hold back his saliva anymore.
He straightforwardly picked up a piece of beef with the chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth without being afraid of the heat. The slightly scalding temperature was due to the combination of the oral temperature. After the temperature decreased, the unique spicy and sweet fragrance of Shacha began to dominate the taste.
As the most important representative of Chaoshan seasoning, the taste of Shacha sauce was very unique and attractive. Coupled with the tender beef and the smooth and juicy texture, it was like a dancing feast of beef when it entered one's mouth. The taste was indescribably wonderful.
"Mang as in mang. This Shacha sauce is really authentic and as fresh as freshly made. The taste is so good." Jiang Fugui didn't care about the heat. After swallowing a piece of beef, he immediately picked up the second piece.
The speed was so fast that even Jiang Ronghao only had time to pick up the first piece. However, after he put the first piece into his mouth, the speed increased.
Actually, Jiang Fugui was quite knowledgeable. When Yuan Zhou cooked this dish, or in other dishes related to Shacha, the Shacha sauce he used was all freshly made on the same day.
Actually, not only the Shacha sauce, but also many other widely used sauces or seasonings that Yuan Zhou was used to make freshly.
The reason why Yuan Zhou would prepare in advance every day before the opening time was not only to prepare the pre-ordered dishes, but also to prepare various seasonings and side dishes.
After all, there was only one chef in the restaurant, Yuan Zhou!
How much could a plate of beef contain? To Jiang Fugui, it wasn't even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth. In no more than two to three bites, the father and son had finished the beef.
"Dad, did you find out the texture of the beef just now?" Jiang Ronghao asked while recalling the top-notch delicacy just now in his mouth.
Except for the delicious taste, he didn't feel anything else about the beef.
Although the taste of the dish was fairly good, his father's influence was still greater. Jiang Ronghao still remembered his purpose.
"…" Jiang Fugui only cared about eating the beef just now. Wasn't eating such delicious beef the most important thing? As for other things, they weren't important at all. Therefore, he didn't pay attention to the texture at all.
"Cough. Let's eat a few more plates later and then slowly analyze it." Jiang Fugui tried his best to show the dignity of a father.
"Ok." As a matter of fact, Jiang Ronghao also thought of it after he finished eating.
Before he could think about the next dish, a new dish was served. It was the steak ordered by Jiang Ronghao. Then, the fragrance of the beef became more intense.
Then, another round of fighting for food began. Once a war broke out, everything else had to be put aside. Only eating was the most important thing.
Just like that, the father and son repeated the process. Every time a dish was served, the father and son would eat together as if they had made an appointment beforehand. They ate very fast. After one dish was eaten, another would be served. The speed of eating was also very good. Thus, there was no time for them to think too much.
When they rested again, they had already eaten up all the dishes. Of course, this was the usual situation in the restaurant.
No matter how many plans they had made in advance, as long as they were faced with the food cooked by Yuan Zhou, they couldn't think about anything else.
