What Lin Shu did next proved that Ling Shu was right.
"Please give me a Gorgon Lily Sweet Soup, a Fuba Ginkgo Sugar Water, a Sweet and Sour Lychee Pork, a Stir-Fried Milk, and a Cantonese Yellow Croaker. That's all for now."
When Su Ruoyan came over to order, Lin Shu called out a few dishes in one breath. After calculating that he had already called out three dishes, he immediately stopped.
She still wanted to order more, but having a sumptuous meal didn't mean indulgence. It was good enough as long as she was 80% full.
In addition, Ling Shu usually ate 70% to 80% full. Three dishes and two bowls of sweet soup were almost enough for her, and more than half of the dishes she ordered were Ling Shu's favorite.
"You can order your favorite five-colored beef tenderloin, barbecued pork, and the like. If you can't finish it, we can take it home. Didn't you say that this place is the best in the country? I believe it won't make much difference even if it's hot or cold." Ling Shu tried to stop Su Ruoyan.
Lin Shu quickly pressed down Ling Shu's hand and said, "No need, no need. I also like to eat this. Don't I like to eat fish? Isn't it here? Besides, the restaurant doesn't allow take-out. If you don't finish it, you'll be blacklisted and can't come back to eat again."
Ling Shu looked at Lin Shu doubtfully and blinked twice. "There's such a rule?"
Lin Shu pointed to the wall above his head and said, "Look at it yourself, it's written clearly."
Ling Shu looked up and saw the rules clearly written on the wall above their heads, Qingqing and Chu Chu.
"Okay, it won't be enough for a while. Order more, my treat." Ling Shu said generously.
"Since someone is treating me, I will definitely go all out today. I really should eat more." Lin Shu smiled.
There was some distance between them. There was originally a small potted plant between them, but it had just been moved away. It was a relatively spacious area.
They didn't say much before they were interrupted by a fragrant aroma.
It was a light fragrance. Ling Shu used to think that the fragrance of perfume was very layered. Good perfume had to be divided into front, middle, and back notes. It had a sense of rhythm.
What she didn't know was that the aroma of a dish was also layered and sequenced. First, there was a fresh aroma that attracted people's attention. Then, as the dish moved closer, there was a unique aroma of preserved meat. Finally, as the plate reached the table, there was another aroma that was similar to egg, flour, and milk mixed together. Each aroma was more complex than the last, and it completely aroused people's appetite.
"Isn't this stir-fried milk too good to look at?" Ling Shu wished her eyes could widen even more.
Red was bright red, white was snow-white, and yellow was orange-yellow. Several colors mixed together and looked very beautiful. It was unknown if the chef deliberately placed them there, but they looked like flowers blooming in the grass. There were petals on one side, branches and leaves on the other. Some were half-open, and some were fully open. It was really beautiful.
Anyway, Ling Shu felt that it had been several years since she fell in love with this stir-fried milk dish. She hadn't seen such a beautiful dish in years.
"Didn't I tell you that this is the best in the country? Hurry up and try it." Lin Shu raised his eyebrows proudly.
Even if Lin Shu hadn't said this, Ling Shu had already picked up her chopsticks and picked up a piece of pure milk. It wasn't very big, but each piece was evenly distributed. Some were wrapped with ingredients, and some were just individual pieces of milk. Although they were about the same size and couldn't be clearly distinguished, the color on the surface was still distinguishable.
The pure milk was snow-white in color, and the wrapping inside revealed some other color, which was easy to distinguish at a glance.
The moment the milk entered his mouth, the smooth and tender feeling immediately gained the upper hand. The rich milky fragrance was the first thing he felt. As the temperature entered his mouth, the milk melted like snow under the sun. He carefully savored it. The fragrance of the egg mixed with the fragrance of the corn quietly entered his mouth.
It was as if spring had arrived and a hundred flowers were blooming. There were different flavors, some strong, some light, but all of them were existences that couldn't be ignored.
It was also different from just drinking milk. Although it still had a very smooth texture, after the transformation of the fire, it was like magic with a little texture, which made people feel both novel and expectant.
After eating the pure milk, she took a bite of the rich milk. After the smooth surface of the milk melted, the prawns inside immediately took over. The chewy prawns were extremely tough, and with the smell of the sea, it injected the soul of the monotonous milk aroma. It was simply delicious.
In any case, Ling Shu didn't have a chance to open her mouth to speak. Her mouth didn't stop, and her chopsticks didn't stop. It wasn't that she was afraid of stopping, but that she couldn't. Her hands and mouth seemed to have reached a consensus. If you don't stop, I won't stop.
Lin Shu saw that Ling Shu was no longer her usual refined manner of eating, but he wasn't too surprised. When she first came to eat the nutritious set meal, even a piece of boiled broccoli made her feel like she was eating abalone, ginseng, shark fin, and belly. She couldn't wait to swallow it in one gulp. Even her best friend's attitude was reserved.
Lin Shu didn't just stand there and watch. He suppressed his eager hands and waited for Ling Shu to eat a few times. Then, he also started to eat. This wasn't the first time he had eaten this dish in the store, but every time he ate it, he would be shocked by its smooth and fresh texture. Compared to a certain snack that was famous for its smooth texture, this dish should let him know what real silkiness was like.
A plate of fried milk, even if it was half a kilo of milk with all kinds of ingredients, was still not much, not to mention that the two of them were fighting over it. Soon, it was all gone.
After searching for the last bit of crumbs, Ling Shu was still a little unsatisfied. "Can't I order another plate? This is the first time I've eaten such delicious fried milk."
Lin Shu wasn't surprised that her best friend would ask such a question. He directly said, "Everyone can only order one plate, but there are two of us who can order another plate. But Shu Shu, I have to remind you that the following dishes are also very delicious. Are you sure you want to eat this fried milk until you're full?"
Lin Shu put on a look that said, "If you want to, then I can also satisfy you." But in her heart, she was quickly calculating how much fat she would gain after eating the remaining two dishes, and how much exercise she would need to do when she got back.
Ling Shu smacked her lips. There was still a rich taste of milk in her mouth. After thinking for a while, she decided to eat the other dishes first. Otherwise, if she missed out on other delicacies, she wouldn't be happy at all. It would be like missing out on a classic medical record.
The Cantonese style yellow croaker that followed proved how correct Ling Shu's decision was. Unlike the freshness of the fried milk, the yellow croaker was very fresh and tender because it was steamed. It was completely unexpected. Even with the smooth and tender fried milk as a comparison, it was not inferior. Especially with the rich smell of the sea, it made people feel like they were walking on the beach, the waves gently beating against their feet, and the soft sand gently rubbing against their feet. It was a very comfortable feeling.
