Xie Bi 'an was speechless. He knew his friend's personality well, so he quickly went up and slapped him on the chin, forcing him to swallow his tongue.
"It's okay, Miss Betty. You can go back to your work." Xie Bi 'an turned around and smiled at Betty.
"Ah, okay. If you need anything, just give me a shout." Betty nodded in confusion, but she still retreated to the side. She planned to have lunch in the kitchen. Otherwise, she would be very hungry.
In fact, Betty was already hungry. After all, it was already noon.
"What are you doing?" Xie Bi 'an looked at his friend, a little depressed.
"Swallowing my tongue." Fan Wujiu's expression was still the same. Xie Bi 'an had worked with Fan Wujiu for a long time, and he had never seen Fan Wujiu show any expression.
"…" Xie Bi 'an had the urge to take out his wand and whack Fan Wujiu on the head. What kind of weird reason was that?
Although the Venerable One did say that he was going to make a dish that made them want to swallow their tongues, that was just an adjective, not a literal one. It seemed that his friend had the potential to make a cold joke.
Chen Ze was still cooking. The main goal of the curry pork chop rice was to marinate the pork chop. So, after Chen Ze started marinating the pork chop, he began to take care of other things.
Tomorrow was the Mid-Autumn Festival. Chen Ze didn't know if there would be any guests coming, and whether or not some guests would come was another question. Although Chen Ze wanted to organize a big dinner party, he couldn't control the location and time of the restaurant's portal. So, he could only let fate take its course.
However, the mooncakes still had to be made. Chen Ze planned to make some of the more famous mooncakes first, and then put them aside. Tomorrow, every guest would be given one. He would also make some hairy crabs. Unless there were some guests who only ate certain dishes, Chen Ze planned to recommend his own hairy crabs.
"It's the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival ~ I hope some new customers will come." Chen Ze twisted his wrist and began to prepare the noodles needed to make the mooncakes.
Hua Xia had many local specialties. Whether it was the Yun Province's fresh flower mooncake, the Yun Province's Yunshan mooncake, the Shanghai's fresh meat mooncake, or the Guangdong Province's Cantonese style mooncake, they were all very delicious. Chen Ze felt that if he said all of them, he could probably talk for a while.
Moreover, there were some unique mooncakes. While eating mooncakes, one could also recognize some rare words. For example, if one wasn't a local, one wouldn't think that this was a mooncake, let alone a Chaozhou-style mooncake.
However, although Chen Ze's culinary skills had improved greatly recently, he had never traveled before. Therefore, when faced with these special mooncakes, Chen Ze was a little confused. He could only make some easier mooncakes according to the recipe.
"Let me see. If it's a fresh flower mooncake … it needs to be fresh and of the best quality. It's said that the Qianlong Emperor liked this." Chen Ze took out the roses from his storage stone. Thanks to the storage stone given to him by Yogg Bubbles, Chen Ze could finally store a large amount of ingredients.
"Then I'll follow this method …" Chen Ze made the fresh flower mooncake without any expression on his face. The fresh flower mooncake had a special texture. At least, Chen Ze didn't like it very much. He preferred the Yunshan Leg mooncake made with honey and Xuanwei Ham. It tasted amazing.
However, just like the five kernel mooncake, if it existed, it meant that it existed. Therefore, Chen Ze put the fresh flower mooncake on his list of mooncakes.
"It's about time …" Chen Ze took out his phone and turned off the alarm. He wiped his hands and went to prepare the curry pork chop rice.
Xie Bian and Fan Wujiu both swallowed their saliva. The smell was too good. It was even better than the food they had eaten before. They felt like they could eat two bowls of rice just by smelling it.
"The venerable one's culinary skills are getting better and better. I think this dish would be as good as the food made by the God of Cookery in the Heavenly Court." Xie Bian rubbed his belly without batting an eyelid.
"Yes." Fan Wujiu wiped the corner of his mouth and sat quietly. He was waiting for his food to be served.
"Betty, come in and serve the food." Chen Ze clapped his hands, then took out two Dragon Beard Candies and put them aside. Because he had made too many Dragon Beard Candies, Chen Ze finally cleared out the Mango Mousse. Now, he had to give out Dragon Beard Candies.
"Okay!" Betty walked in and saw Chen Ze point at the table. There was a plate of curry pork chop rice on it.
Betty's eyes lit up. She quickly took the plate out and placed it on Xie Bian and Fan Wujiu's table. Then, she returned to the kitchen and began to eat the curry pork chop rice with big mouthfuls.
Chen Ze smiled, then picked up the plate and went to the second floor. He put the curry pork chop rice next to the sleeping Lavra. She was still sleeping, and he didn't know how long this situation would last.
Chen Ze stealthily kissed Lavra's face before walking downstairs in a happy mood.
Xie Bian now understood why the manager said the dish would make them want to swallow their tongues. It was because every bite was incredibly delicious. Xie Bian wanted to eat a hundred servings of curry pork chop rice.
Looking at the Black and White Impermanence eating quickly, Chen Ze smiled and walked into the kitchen. He had a lot of work to do today. He needed to prepare some mooncakes as soon as possible.
Moreover, Chen Ze also needed to take advantage of this Mid-Autumn Festival to make a batch of mooncakes as soon as possible and use them for takeout. Although Chen Ze had accumulated a lot of money from last time's takeout, his WeChat balance was getting smaller and smaller. Chen Ze had to start his takeout business again.
"Mooncakes in the Sun Moon City … I think the cloud leg mooncakes are the most popular, but I can also make flower mooncakes." Chen Ze twisted his neck. What he didn't know now was whether these mooncakes would be recognized by the system or not. However, the taste was definitely not a problem.
"Manager, aren't you going to eat?" Betty had already finished eating. She was washing the dishes. Betty's eating speed had always been frighteningly fast, which made Chen Ze often suspect that this fellow swallowed without chewing at all.
"No, I'm not hungry yet." Chen Ze shook his head. He was full from cooking. He could try some mooncakes later.
"Okay, then I'll go out." Betty put down her chopsticks and jumped out happily.
"I feel like I want another one." Xie Bian also put down his spoon. Chen Ze had prepared a spoon for the curry pork chop rice for the convenience of the diners.
"Okay." Fan Wujiu nodded.
The two looked at each other, then Xie Bian raised his hand.
"Another plate!"
