By the time the pub closed in the evening, Yuan Zhou still hadn't found any dishes that met the requirements. It was really a test of his patience.
However, at noon the next day, Zhong Lili suddenly called him and told him something. In the challenge a few days later, the 28 restaurants across the street had announced seven dishes for the challenge.
Then, Yuan Zhou naturally knew about the seven dishes. In fact, it wasn't cheating. Because the challenge this time was made known to many people by Chef Li and Ao Pi.
And they even posted it on the Internet. Not to mention that the challenge would shock the whole cooking circle in China, but now it had shocked the whole cooking circle of Sichuan Cuisine.
It was the first time that the officially recognized Sichuan Cuisine exemplary restaurant was challenged. How could it not go viral?
After Chef Li reported the decision to the person in charge, he directly posted it on the Internet. Therefore, Zhong Lili told him just so that it would be convenient for Yuan Zhou to know directly.
Seeing this, Yuan Zhou commented, "These seven dishes are really ordinary."
The seven dishes were: Spicy mantis shrimp, winter bamboo shoots with red ginseng, pickled pepper Arctic scallops, dried pot small yellow croaker, salad conch, flaming squid, and rolling crab dumplings.
There were seven dishes in total, including cold dish, salad conch, and the main dish, rolling crab dumplings. There were different cooking methods, such as dried pot, iron plate, braised in soy sauce, stewed, and so on. It was decided by Chef Li and other chefs after two days of discussion.
For example, rolling crab dumplings was a dish that Ao Pi was good at in the past. And the flaming squid was the signature dish of "The Best Squid Restaurant of Sichuan Cuisine". In short, they carefully selected all the dishes that they were good at and then chose the top dishes of the 28 restaurants.
In Yuan Zhou's opinion, these seven dishes were very ordinary. Only the Spicy mantis shrimp and rolling crab dumplings needed more effort in cooking.
Of course, there was a rare and precious ingredient, which was red ginseng.
Yuan Zhou also decided on the seven dishes for the challenge. After hearing that, Zhong Lili kept silent for a while on the other side of the phone and then said again.
"Are we really going to use these seven dishes for the challenge?" Zhong Lili asked with certainty.
"I'm sure," Yuan Zhou said.
Zhong Lili couldn't help but say, "It seems that these people really made you very angry."
This time, Yuan Zhou didn't say anything.
"Okay. Then I will report it to the higher-ups first." Zhong Lili was a decisive person, so she hung up the phone after confirming it.
As usual, Yuan Zhou continued to practice his culinary skills.
When he first got the system, Yuan Zhou felt a little uneasy. What if the system suddenly disappeared one day?
Later, Yuan Zhou understood one thing. The only way to stop this uneasiness was to make all the cooking skills provided by the system his own.
Now, Yuan Zhou was much more at ease with himself. After all, his culinary skills had already reached the top.
Of course, this superb culinary skill referred to the fact that Yuan Zhou had digested the culinary skill and made it his own.
The next day, dinner time.
"I'm a commoner, I'm really happy today, I'm a commoner, I'm really, really happy …"
Mr. Wei hummed a tune as he arrived. He ordered two dishes and started eating.
Why was he so happy? The reason was simple. When Xie Hao was unhappy, he was happy.
Xie Hao was originally going to be transferred to be a 'feudal official'. No matter what, it was something to be happy about. However, he couldn't figure out what Mr. Wei was up to.
Until the day he officially took office, Xie Hao felt like there was a rock in his heart.
Xie Hao wasn't stupid. On the second day, which was today, he fiercely called Mr. Wei.
"I've seen through you. You're not playing anything. You're just trying to scare me." Xie Hao hung up the phone with a bang.
Then, Mr. Wei revealed an indescribable smile. "You've seen through me? But the real test has just begun. "
Mr. Wei was happily eating when Ma Zhida rushed over. However, his legs and hands seemed to be trembling uncontrollably. The last time Xie Hao saw this scene was when a patient with epilepsy came to the restaurant for a meal.
Of course, Ma Zhida wasn't epileptic. He was so excited because he was about to crack a big secret.
It was a big secret, not a big secret.
He picked up the Yuanzhou shop's menu. It was the same as before. There was Jinling cuisine and a few foreign dishes. When he flipped to the second page, it was Chengdu School's Sichuan cuisine.
Previously, there was nothing on the second page. However, when Ma Zhida rubbed his fingers, there were two more pages.
These dishes weren't available in the restaurant previously.
"Hahaha." Ma Zhida laughed gleefully, attracting the attention of the customers in the restaurant.
"What are you laughing like a fool for, Che Biao?"
"Maybe he really is a fool."
Ma Zhida glanced at the two of them with a look of exasperation for not meeting his expectations.
He said, "It's as I expected. It's really as I expected. Boss Yuan, don't think that no one noticed you sneaking out so many new dishes. I'm the new dish expert, Ma Zhida!"
New dishes.
So many new dishes.
These two keywords instantly made all the customers do the same thing: lower their heads to look at the menu.
As for whether Ma Zhida was a fool or not, no one paid attention to it.
As a matter of fact, it was easy to form a rule when one came to Yuan Zhou's restaurant. That was because Yuan Zhou's craftsmanship was truly excellent. Therefore, it was extremely rare for someone to get tired of eating the same dish and want to change to another dish.
Moreover, because the prices weren't friendly, most of the people came here just for their favorite dishes.
And these people directly reported the name of the dish when they came, there was no need to look at the menu at all.
Therefore, this was the reason why no one noticed that Yuan Zhou had released new dishes for so long.
Of course, the premise was that he didn't remind people. This was Yuan Zhou's bad taste, so he deliberately did it secretly.
"It's really a new dish. When did it come out?"
"It's my favorite spicy pig intestine and pepper rabbit. I like it."
"There are so many new dishes. It's a pity that I've ordered all the dishes. If I add more, I won't be able to finish them."
"I feel that my wallet is going to lose a lot of weight today."
Then, the restaurant was divided into two groups. The customers who hadn't ordered the dishes were happy to order the new dishes.
As for those who had ordered the dishes and even had two or three dishes served, they could only look at the new dishes. Some people touched their stomachs and gritted their teeth to add another dish that they liked.
Speaking of which, Yuan Zhou didn't know why the system stipulated that everything must be finished, although it was indeed to save food.
But at the beginning, Yuan Zhou thought that as the Master Chef, shouldn't the food he made be eaten by the customers voluntarily?
Such a rule was too low.
