"It seems that the eyes of the foodies are quite sharp. They actually discovered it so early." Yuan Zhou got the menu from Si Jinning and the others.
With a single glance, he recognized that the dishes were from the Ethnic Cuisine. Although there were only a few dishes, he was indeed the first person to open up this new cuisine.
He raised his head and looked at Si Jinning and his disciple curiously, "He doesn't seem to be a chef. I wonder what he does."
Although he was a little curious, it was still business hours. Therefore, Yuan Zhou didn't think too much about it. Instead, he collected his thoughts and focused on cooking.
"Every time I feel depressed, I will feel refreshed as long as I watch Boss Yuan cook. Then, I will eat some of Boss Yuan's dishes and my life will be perfect," a long-haired girl with an oval face said to the girl beside her.
Her eyebrows, which were originally frowning, were now completely relaxed. Obviously, what she said just now was the truth.
"I can tell. This chef is indeed handsome. He looks pleasing to the eye." Liu Xu leaned against the chair with her hand supporting her chin.
Looking at Yuan Zhou's smooth movements and his handsome face, she also felt he was very good-looking. It was the first time that she accompanied her friend to this restaurant for a meal. Although she had heard about Yuan Zhou many times and read many reports about him, she had never had a deep understanding of him.
That was because Liu Xu's goal had always been to find someone who could cook instead of cooking. Therefore, she really didn't know much about cooking unless she decided to choose this person.
"Cough … Boss Yuan already has a fiancée." The long-haired Li Juan coughed dryly and hurriedly reminded her friend who looked quite flirtatious.
"Oh … That's really a pity." Liu Xu raised her thin eyebrows and naturally revealed a flirtatious look.
Her drawn-out voice was a little charming and gentle, which could melt one's bones. Obviously, she was quite capable.
Yuan Zhou, who was cooking earnestly, didn't know that he had almost caught the eye of a valiant beauty comparable to Queen Jiang. He just felt a little cold all over.
"Master, are we really not going to inform our junior sister?" Si Hongyuan felt that as the eldest senior brother, he could fight for his junior sister.
Otherwise, when Junior Sister suddenly saw the person who should be in Gusu suddenly appear here, she would be scared.
"There's no need. We'll see each other in a while." Si Jinning looked at Si Hongyuan with disdain.
Si Hongyuan was speechless. What could his master do? He could only do as he wished. He could only apologize to his junior sister in his heart.
After chatting for a while, the first dish was served.
An extremely fresh aroma assaulted their noses and lingered for a long time. Only when the dishes were placed on the table did the two of them recover from the aroma. It was really too fresh.
Lowering their heads to look at the dishes on the table, the two of them gasped at the same time. They didn't know how to describe their current feelings.
The snow-white plates were also filled with snow-white ingredients. They were thin and long, and they were all the same white. At first glance, one would think that they were the same ingredient, but when one got closer, one would realize that they were not the same.
One was whiter in color, and the other was a little like beige. However, both the size and color of the ingredients were very similar. Set off by the fine white porcelain plates, they looked very uniform at first glance.
"This braised chicken looks really good. It's the first time I've seen something like this. I was lucky enough to eat Royal Chef Fang's cooking once, but I didn't think it was as white as this," Si Jinning said.
"Is this Uncle Fang Shi? Isn't his family's ancestor a royal chef in the Qing Palace?" Si Hongyuan had some impression of Fang Shi.
He had never eaten Fang Shi's cooking before, but that didn't stop him from knowing how good he was. Fang Shi's family had a long history of learning. In addition, Fang Shi's grandfather was a royal chef, and it wasn't too late for him to learn many of his skills.
He opened a private restaurant that was very popular. If one didn't have the ability, there was no way to eat there. Only regular customers could bring them there. It was very famous in Gusu. He had seen Fang Shi in person with his master, but it was only once.
However, because of his uniqueness, he had a deep impression of him.
"Even Royal Chef Fang's signature dish doesn't look as good as this. It really looks like the color of snow," Si Jinning said.
After saying that, he picked up his chopsticks to taste it. The main thing was that the aroma was very tempting, and it kept tempting him to eat it.
In fact, the braised chicken was a very simple dish. It was just chicken and winter bamboo shoots. In other words, Yuan Zhou had used two ordinary ingredients to make it look high-end.
The braised chicken was not placed randomly. Instead, it seemed to be placed in a big circle consciously. The two ingredients blended with each other and were placed layer by layer to form a smooth circle. It was very beautiful.
With one swipe of his chopsticks, he picked up not only the chicken but also a few shredded winter bamboo shoots. He put them into his mouth. The tender chicken and crisp winter bamboo shoots, one soft and the other hard, complemented each other. As soon as he bit into the tenderness of the chicken, he immediately felt the crisp taste of the winter bamboo shoots. They were both ingredients that were very fresh. When the two were added together, it wasn't as simple as one plus one equals two.
There was also a hint of sweetness in the freshness. This sweetness once again set off the freshness. The ancients said that freshness would cause eyebrows to fall off. They were not lying!
This was also the source of the extremely fresh aroma. The more Si Jinning ate, the more satisfied he became. As for the original thought of seeing how authentic this dish was, he couldn't remember it now. All he could think about was eating all the dishes in his stomach.
He always felt that putting the dishes on the plate was a sin. Thus, in order not to commit a sin, Si Jinning ate at a speed that didn't match his age.
Could it be that the dishes in this restaurant have magical powers? They can even increase the speed at which people eat? Si Hongyuan was very puzzled when he saw that the chef ate almost a third faster than usual.
Of course, if his mouth wasn't covered in saliva, his question would seem more reasonable.
Although he really wanted to eat, his teacher didn't say anything. His respect for his teacher was engraved in his bones, so Si Hongyuan didn't dare to be presumptuous. He tried his best to endure the test of the aroma. He almost wanted to recite the Book of Dao and Qingqing's Heart.
Fortunately, Si Jinning was fast and the torture was over very soon. The main thing was that the dishes were finished. The clean and shiny plate didn't have any special features anymore, which reduced the temptation.
"I forgot to ask Hongyuan to eat with me." Only then did Si Jinning realize that he hadn't asked his disciple to eat with him.
He secretly made up his mind that he would let his disciple have a taste of the next dish. That way, he would be able to eat it.
Si Hongyuan didn't know what his teacher was thinking because his attention was attracted by the dishes that had just been served.
At first glance, he could see a sea of red. Although the colors were different, they were all shades of red, which made people feel warm just by looking at them.
Moreover, there was also an overbearing spiciness that rushed straight to the tip of his nose, making it impossible for him to ignore it.
The Spicy Chicken ordered by Si Hongyuan was served.
Even Si Jinning, who had just raised a flag, was stimulated by the aroma. His first reaction was to pick up the chopsticks and start eating. With such a wonderful taste, how could he remember who had ordered it? Everything that was served on the table was edible. That was the main point.
