The evaluation team had already set off. Yuan Zhou only received the system's encouragement. However, the system didn't tell him who the advisor was.
Of course, Yuan Zhou didn't care about that. After all, he was strong enough to handle the competition.
"Compass, why didn't anyone ask me to be the advisor today?" Wuhai leaned against the door and asked like a Shiba Inu.
"Because they might come to my restaurant today," Yuan Zhou said doubtfully, but his tone was firm.
"Today? That will definitely attract a lot of people. No, I have to line up in advance so that I can watch, "Wuhai straightened his back and looked around.
"There's still an hour before lunch," Yuan Zhou said speechlessly.
"Only an hour? It's time to line up. "Wu Hai nodded his head, pretending to be serious. Then, he really stood there and started to line up.
"How proactive," Yuan Zhou felt that he couldn't keep up with the artist's thought process. Then, he started to prepare the ingredients.
He had to complete the mission today. It had been a long time since he received a reward for completing a main mission. Furthermore, he had the bonus from the granny's Instant Success Talisman. He was determined to get it.
It was time to prepare early.
Just like that, Yuan Zhou and Wuhai started to line up in the restaurant. It was quite harmonious. When the evaluation team arrived at the entrance of Yuanzhou shop, they saw such a scene.
"There are people here so early?" Hu Yue looked at Wuhai in surprise.
"There are many people here every day," he said as a matter of fact.
"I'm afraid it's because the restaurant is small," Zhang Yan looked around and said, "I've never thought of expanding. It's a little too small."
"It's because the restaurant is small that other restaurants can survive," Lee Yanyi said viciously. Lee Yanyi cursed again, "If you continue to expand, I reckon that within a few days, there will be a group of Sichuan Cuisine chefs in front of your association's entrance to file a joint complaint to close down this restaurant."
Lee Yanyi was really imaginative. He should be writing novels.
Zhang Yan nodded his head. He didn't want to argue in front of the camera. Although he didn't like talented chefs, as the president of Sichuan Cuisine Association, it would be good for him to have a great chef.
The only person he didn't like was Zhou Shijie. It was very simple.
"Yes, we'll know once we eat it." Hu Yue tried to smooth things over.
"Even if I don't eat here, I can still give this restaurant 10 points," Zhou Shijie said with a smile.
"Although Brat Yuan has a lot of rules and his expressionless face isn't likable, there's no problem with the taste of his food," Lee Yanyi complained for a while before giving full marks.
"Biased." Zhang Yan said seriously, "We're the judges. We can't be biased just because we're familiar with a store. Otherwise, what's the point of the demonstration?"
Lee Yanyi and Zhou Shijie didn't even eat at the beginning, but they both said that they would each take ten. How could the others play with them?
"I know you're the one who recommended this restaurant, but you don't have to be so obviously biased, right?" Hu Yue was speechless.
Even Councilman Jian who was standing at the side felt helpless.
One of the Councilors that came was Zhao Xin from Shu Restaurant. As for the reason, it was because they knew that Shu Restaurant and Yuanzhou shop had already had a private discussion. It would be interesting for the two stores that had had a private discussion to send someone over to see if they could give other suggestions. This was what the evaluation team was thinking.
"Chairman Zhou is so biased. I must eat to my heart's content and give my suggestions," Zhao Xin was indignant. He was a kid that had gone all the way.
The other was from the Sichuan Restaurant recommended by the magazine. This was also an old Sichuan Restaurant. Naturally, the sous-chef Ma Cheng had come.
Originally, he had been wary of Yuanzhou shop. After all, Yuan Zhou was too famous in Sichuan Province. Moreover, he was young. But after hearing what Zhou Shijie and Lee Yanyi said, his impression of Yuan Zhou instantly worsened.
It sounded as if Yuan Zhou had entered through the back door. This was very unfair to the other restaurants.
"Ten points before eating? Isn't it too exaggerated? "Ma Cheng muttered inwardly. After all, their restaurant had also participated in the competition.
The person holding the camera turned his head and looked at the man with the crew cut with a surprised expression. He was probably asking if they needed to cut the video.
"How can the chairman speak like that?" The man with the crew cut became a little anxious. The chairman was too arrogant and made it seem as if there was a shady deal going on in their program.
"It doesn't matter. It's good to have something explosive," Director Gu, who had been following them since yesterday, said lightly.
"No. Just focus on filming." The man with the crew cut nodded immediately.
"You'll know whether I'm biased or not after eating. Hurry up and line up. Otherwise, you won't get your turn. By the way, have you brought your ID cards?" With a smile, Zhou Shijie didn't care about their doubts at all. Instead, he reminded them that they needed their ID cards to line up here.
What he did showed that he had 100% confidence in Yuan Zhou. This old man really supported Yuan Zhou and wasn't afraid of affecting his reputation as the chairman.
While they were talking, two people had already lined up behind Wuhai. Therefore, when the six of them went up, they were basically the first batch of customers to enter the restaurant.
The cameraman followed them at the side. Of course, at this moment, the people from the queuing committee went up to negotiate with the man with the crew cut.
The negotiation was about not disturbing the customers while they were eating. Fortunately, both parties reached an agreement on this point very quickly.
They tried to be as quiet as possible while the people from the queuing committee were in charge of maintaining order and not letting anyone disturb them. This was exactly what the man with the crew cut wanted. It saved him a lot of effort.
"The first 12 customers, please come in and enjoy your meal," along with Zhou Jia's voice, the first 12 people immediately poured into the Yuanzhou shop.
Even the six people from the selection committee were directly brought into the restaurant.
"These people are really passionate." Hu Yue stood still in the restaurant and slightly tidied up his suit. He looked around and found that the decoration was elegant and didn't look shabby due to the small size of the restaurant.
"Indeed," Zhang Yan nodded. He felt as if he had experienced the crowd of aunties fighting for vegetables in a wet market.
"You'll get used to it after a few more times," Lee Yanyi said as he sat down calmly. His hair wasn't messed up.
"Yes, yes, yes," Zhou Shijie nodded as well. Of course, he was also used to it and said that after he sat down.
The other four people looked around and also sat down.
"Good afternoon, everyone," Yuan Zhou went up and greeted them.
The six people from the selection committee were sitting at a curved table that was left open by the customers. Yuan Zhou was currently standing in the kitchen opposite them.
"Boss Yuan, quickly serve the three dishes you prepared," Zhou Shijie said first.
"If the dishes today aren't delicious, then don't open the restaurant anymore," Lee Yanyi said harshly as usual.
He didn't look like he was praising Yuan Zhou when he was outside.
"Don't worry. There won't be any problem," Yuan Zhou nodded seriously.
"Let's begin, then," Zhang Yan said after looking at Yuan Zhou carefully.
"Thank you, Boss Yuan," Hu Yue said politely.
"Thank you," Ma Cheng and Zhao Xin said at the same time.
Yuan Zhou nodded and said, "Alright, please wait for a moment."
Zhao Xin intentionally tiptoed to attract Yuan Zhou's attention. In the end, Yuan Zhou just glanced at him and walked away. Zhao Xin was so angry that he almost cried. Alright, that was an exaggeration.
That's right. Yuan Zhou wasn't surprised by Zhao Xin's appearance. It didn't matter to him who appeared.
"The first dish is the representative of Chongqing School of Sichuan Cuisine, the cold dish, Saliva Chicken," Yuan Zhou introduced and then turned around to cook.
Saliva Chicken? Chongqing School's cooking method? That's too risky, Hu Yue shook his head.
Even someone like him who didn't know how to cook knew that Chengdu School of Sichuan Cuisine was the most traditional, but it didn't have spiciness as its main taste. It was just like Kung Pao Chicken, which suited most people's taste buds.
However, Chongqing School of Sichuan Cuisine was different. Founded in Shancheng, Chongqing School of Sichuan Cuisine emphasized on numbing one's taste buds and spicy ones. Even most people in Sichuan Cuisine couldn't handle spicy food. How could it be promoted?
Tsk, I'm starting to worry about my chrysanthemum, Hu Yue thought.
