There was a little green among the red flowers, which was the result of the chopped green onions. A strong spicy fragrance came to his nose. When he took a deep breath, he felt the spiciness seemed to go straight into his stomach. The penetrating power was extremely strong.
"Master, hurry up and join us." Si Hongyuan felt that he was really a good disciple of China.
He still remembered to invite his master to eat with him in front of such tempting delicacies. He really deserved his position as the eldest senior brother.
Si Hongyuan just greeted him and then quickly picked up a piece of meat that he had taken a fancy to.
Probably because it had been fried, the surface of the meat was slightly charred. The Spicy Chicken cooked by Yuan Zhou was very dry without any trace of gravy. Even the surface of the meat was dry.
When put into the mouth, the surface was charred and a little crispy. It was the kind of crisp and fragrant taste of the meat after it was fried. However, after biting into the inside, one would find it very soft and tender. Combined with the crisp texture outside and the spicy and fragrant taste, it brought a completely new experience.
"Hiss … so spicy. How satisfying."
Si Jinning had just eaten the light and fragrant Braised Chicken Shredded. Suddenly eating such a strong spicy Spicy Chicken aroused all his senses. The spicy taste was still lingering on the tip of his tongue. The meat had been chewed and swallowed into his stomach. Then, he picked up another piece.
Many people would have such an experience when eating spicy food. The more spicy it was, the more they wanted to eat it. The more they ate, the more they wanted to eat it. The more they ate, the more appetizing they felt.
Anyway, that was how Si Jinning felt now. One piece of meat after another, the dry, fragrant, and spicy taste stimulated his taste buds constantly, making him unable to stop.
Si Hongyuan's speed wasn't slow either. He moved the chopsticks as if they were flying. The chopsticks left afterimages. Every time they moved, a piece of meat was eaten into his stomach.
"When I feel depressed, I should eat some spicy food and sweat it out." Si Hongyuan felt his whole body was relaxed now.
Although it was very spicy, it was completely within his acceptable range. He wouldn't feel unbearably spicy. Even Si Jinning felt it was to his liking.
Even the dried chilies had a special taste when chewed. After the meat was finished, the chilies and scallions were all eaten up. The only thing left was probably some Sichuan peppercorns. If Si Hongyuan hadn't tried one and found it too numb and unsuitable, there probably wouldn't be any left.
After eating the hot and spicy Chili Chicken, Si Jinning's Pork Yuanbao was served. In fact, the dishes he had ordered were all dishes from the Manchu Eight Bowls. They were not necessarily the Manchu Eight Bowls, but they were adapted from other cuisines. However, they definitely had some characteristics of the Manchu Eight Bowls, just like the Manchu Han Imperial Feast.
And Yuanbao meat was born from Hubei cuisine.
The eight bowls of the Manchu people were divided into different thicknesses. The thicknesses did not refer to the bowls, but to the thickness of the ingredients. Therefore, after the light and fragrant chicken shredded, the dish that was served should be thick oil and red sauce.
The bright red color made people feel comfortable just looking at it. Unlike the hot Chili Chicken just now, the Pork Yuanbao gave people a more honest and heavy feeling. The rich fragrance of the meat pervaded every nook and cranny, as if it wouldn't stop until it attracted one's attention.
The combination of the streaky pork and quail eggs was dyed with a layer of brownish-red color. The beautiful color made people very hungry just looking at it.
As the chef, Si Jinning remembered his responsibility as a chef very well this time. He picked up a piece of meat and an egg and put them in Si Hongyuan's bowl and said, "Eat these. They definitely look very delicious."
Then, he naturally picked up a piece of meat with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth. The meat had a strong fragrance. The surface was slightly hard, but the inside was tender. The streaky pork was 70% lean and 30% fat. It was fat but not greasy. The lean meat was not dry, and the fat meat was not greasy. The combination was just right.
Coupled with the soft pork skin, the taste was excellent. In any case, Si Jinning ate happily, piece after piece.
It wasn't just the meat. Even the quail eggs were dyed with the fat of the meat. The tender eggs and the mellow fragrance of the meat made the taste quite good.
After Si Hongyuan finished eating the two pieces that the chef picked up, he wanted to reach out his chopsticks a few times. Unfortunately, he didn't have the guts to do so. He could only watch as the chef ate until his mouth was covered in grease.
Fortunately, his Spicy Fish was served. It was just right to eat. The fresh and tender fish slices were a different experience from the meat just now.
The dishes were served one after another. Apart from the condiments that couldn't be eaten, the other edible side dishes were all eaten by the master and disciple. They had a tacit understanding. They didn't even need to say anything and just ate on their own.
"Burp."
Si Jinning held his stomach and slumped on the chair. He planned to catch his breath before speaking. Originally, his three dishes were more or less full, but the dishes that Si Hongyuan ordered were too fragrant. He couldn't help but eat quite a lot. At least, he ate twice as much as usual. The reason why he didn't end up in the hospital was definitely because his body was usually very healthy.
"This chef's cooking is really delicious. He deserves his reputation," Si Hongyuan said.
"Nonsense. Do you think that reputation is worthy of this young man's culinary skills?" Si Jinning said.
"Master, what you said makes sense. Indeed, no matter how you describe it, it won't be too much. I feel that it didn't even describe one-third of the dishes themselves. He's definitely the king of the culinary world. He's really not simple," Si Hongyuan thought for a while and said.
Although he found that there were a lot of people flattering Yuan Zhou on the Internet, the words they used were always the same. They were either delicious, extremely delicious, or the most delicious. Although they seemed to be sincere, they really couldn't express how delicious Yuan Zhou's dishes were.
Of course, Si Hongyuan was so picky now, but it was also difficult for him to say some different words. Fortunately, he was able to flatter the dishes with some time because of his profession.
In fact, Si Hongyuan knew too little. There was a professional forum on the Internet, where a group of food critics, led by Lee Yanyi, specially praised Yuan Zhou's dishes. This forum was quite famous and authoritative. It could be said to be the holy land of the food critics because everything there was true. No exaggerated words could be used to describe Yuan Zhou's dishes.
This was the consensus of the food critics.
Therefore, a lot of foodies liked to look for the dishes of the restaurant on this forum. It was also because of this forum that Yuan Zhou had a few more popular dishes on the Internet.
After sitting for a while, they felt that it was time to leave. Therefore, the master and disciple stood up and planned to give up their seats to others. The main reason was that the people next to them would give up their seats after they finished eating. They had already sat for a while, and it would be embarrassing if they didn't give up their seats.
Dinner time continued. After Si Jinning and the others went out, they didn't leave immediately. Instead, they stood under the eaves and waited for the pub time to start. As the time passed, Zuo Zuo came to the entrance of the restaurant and saw two very familiar figures.
Although some people looked similar, they definitely didn't have the same clothes and habits. Therefore, Si Jinning's plan to secretly scare his little disciple was ruined before it officially started.
Zuo Zuo, on the other hand, was full of courage because she had already made a successful storytelling. Even when she saw her master and senior brother coming together, she didn't have stage fright. Instead, she chattered incessantly and acted like a little disciple.
