"I'm still young. Why am I so stupid?" Hakeem, the secretary, was nearly forty years old, but he still looked like an elegant uncle with good business skills.
Because of the process, he had changed it several times. It was no wonder that he doubted himself and stared at the screen with cross-eyes.
It wasn't because of his incompetence, but because Hakeem, as a secretary, didn't understand his leader well. No matter how many times he changed it, it was useless.
What was Hakeem's leader, Ogyust, thinking? Ever since he saw Yuan Zhou's superb cooking skills in the cooking exhibition, he was instantly bought over.
If not for the fact that Yuan Zhou was a nobody in Europe at that time, he would have been arranged to enter the Bogus World Cooking Competition.
As Yuan Zhou conquered more and more European chefs, Ogyust recommended him. It was really difficult for Yuan Zhou, a world-class chef, to compete with the top chefs.
Therefore, Ogyust hoped to provide more convenience for Yuan Zhou within the scope of his ability. Nevertheless, he couldn't be too blatant. Otherwise, others would criticize him. In order to fully spread Yuan Zhou's reputation in Europe, he had considered all aspects.
For example, the biggest move was to increase the benefits of the champion. As for the other champion?
It wasn't that Ogyust trusted Yuan Zhou too much, but his cooking skills were too good. Even Chu Xiao could dominate the French cooking circle, while Chu Xiao's cooking skills were far inferior to Yuan Zhou's.
Well, in this case, Chu Xiao seemed to be offended.
Ogyust paid more attention to the Sino-French exchange. He had many misunderstandings about Chinese food before, but after the appearance of Yuan Zhou, he became more interested in Chinese food.
Therefore, the first Sino-French exchange meeting was naturally the key to opening up the situation. Compared to the cooking competition, Ogyust mainly focused on the exchange meeting.
Ogyust didn't tell his secretary Hakeem about this, which was why the plan wasn't satisfactory.
After seven or eight revisions, Ogyust couldn't help but point out one point. Hakeem understood it and rushed to revise it.
While France was busy with the cooking competition, Huaxia's Chengdu was as lively as ever.
There were a few white clouds floating in the blue sky. As the position of the sun changed, the position of the sunlight also changed accordingly.
"I was originally very busy and wanted to seize the time to have dinner at The Kitchen God. But I don't know why my heart calmed down a lot when I came to Taoxi Road." Wu Yungui said to the assistant beside him, "Don't you think it's strange?"
The assistant could only nod at the side. He couldn't feel it, but he could see that the anxiety on his boss's face before had lessened a lot after they entered Taoxi Road.
"Taoxi Road is crowded with tourists. It's not peaceful at all." Wu Yungui said. He had not started to line up yet. He sat for a while in the restaurant opposite and ordered two bowls of noodles. He did not eat them. His financial strength did not allow him to fill his stomach first.
Ding ding dang dang!
For the whole afternoon, Yuan Zhou was busy practicing Spanish cuisine in the kitchen. Many foreign cuisines were related to spices. Therefore, in the afternoon, Yuan Zhou made several classic sauces and planned to see how it turned out.
For example, the roasted red pepper nut sauce that was nicknamed the Lao Ganma of the Spanish sauces and the vanilla green sauce that could go well with various grilled seafood, corn, and kebabs were the focus of Yuan Zhou's attention this time.
"The aroma of the nut blends perfectly with the red pepper. It should taste good." Yuan Zhou smelled the roasted red pepper nut sauce that he had just made.
He planned to have a small outdoor barbecue with Yin Ya tonight and he could use this sauce to go well with it.
Although the roasted red pepper nut sauce was not only available in many authentic Spanish restaurants but also in some families, as one of the traditional Spanish sauces, it definitely had its own unique charm.
"Borrowing from Indonesia's Shacha sauce, it can also be used in barbecue." Yuan Zhou looked at the time and found it was still a little early. He thought if he should make some more Shacha sauce for the outdoor barbecue in the evening.
Shacha sauce, also known as satay sauce, was translated from the Indonesian language. In Indonesia, satay kebabs were a classic local snack.
The satay sauce that originated from Chaoshan was made by removing all the other ingredients of satay kebabs and only using the unique spicy taste of the meat. It was called Shacha sauce.
Of course, because of its wide spread, the taste of Shacha sauce was slightly different in different regions. For example, the Shacha sauce in Fuzhou had mustard and other spices added, so the spicy taste was stronger. Of course, the spicy taste was different from the traditional chili.
The spicy taste was more inclined to the stimulation of the breath. The Shacha sauce left in Chaoshan had a more prominent sweet and spicy taste due to the addition of lemongrass and other spices. Of course, the spicy taste was also very strong. After all, this was the characteristic of Shacha, which was a little similar to ginger.
Of course, the Shacha sauce made by Yuan Zhou was definitely the oldest version, so the spicy taste was stronger. It was suitable for grilling seafood, barbecue kebabs, and other dishes with a strong fishy taste.
"There are quite a lot of new seafood recently. I can grill it with Little Ya to try the taste." Yuan Zhou made up his mind and sped up his movements.
While Yuan Zhou was preparing for dinner, someone else was also busy preparing for dinner at the other side.
"Dang Dang Dang"
Chef Xiao Ding was so busy that his feet didn't even touch the ground. In the small kitchen, there were four or five people squeezed together. Everyone was sweating profusely. Even if it was already difficult to turn around, they didn't pay much attention to it. Instead, they concentrated on their own pots.
When Xiao Ding turned around to help take the things, he accidentally touched a pile of bowls and plates. If it wasn't for a big hand reaching over from the side, these exquisite bowls and plates would probably be washed white.
He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. After confirming that the bowls and plates were fine, Xiao Ding turned around and looked at the man who helped him just now and said, "Thank you, Master Li. I didn't do it on purpose. There won't be a next time. I will definitely be careful."
Master Li first looked at the busy kitchen and then said to Xiao Ding, "It's okay. Just be careful. Whether our restaurant can survive tonight depends on this. Be smart."
Master Li was the head chef and was responsible for the overall situation. Of course, he also needed to cook the important dishes. It wasn't time yet, so compared to the other chefs, he was still free.
When Xiao Ding heard Master Li's words, his eyes turned red. "Master Li, is there no other way? Wasn't everything fine before? Our restaurant has been passed down for so long. I grew up in this kitchen since I was young, so I can't bear to part with it."
Xiao Ding was an orphan who wasn't even 20 years old yet. When he was five or six years old, he was picked up by Master Li and brought back to this restaurant. Therefore, he could be considered to have grown up with Master Li in the back kitchen of the restaurant. Naturally, he had a deep feeling for the restaurant.
"Today is an opportunity. As long as they are satisfied, our restaurant can stay. There is still more than half of hope. Xiao Ding, don't worry." Master Li was already over 50 years old, but he felt that he could still stand by the stove for another 20 years without a problem.
In fact, the matter this time was very simple. Longyue Restaurant was a restaurant at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain that had been passed down for a hundred years. Its business was not bad, but it was better than the rest. Because it was not far from the scenic area, it was always crowded.
