The news was a little sudden. Zhou Shijie was also worried about Yuan Zhou. Therefore, he made the trip here in person, hoping to give Yuan Zhou a reminder.
“Singapore? I’ve had an exchange with the National treasure chef, head chef opello, in Singapore before. I haven’t had any other contact with him.” Yuan Zhou thought for a while and then said.
“Opello Singapore’s light?” Zhou Shijie asked.
“It should be. Chu Xiao said that head chef opello is a national treasure chef in Singapore” Yuan Zhou said.
“No wonder. I saw opello’s first disciple, Tang Lei, on the list of people accompanying us. It must be related.” Knowing the reason, Zhou Shijie also felt relieved.
That’s right, after Tang le’s unremitting efforts, he finally facilitated this trip to Chengdu. Prime Minister Li Yanhua had always been very fond of opello’s food. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have brought Tang le with him on this trip.
Li Yanhua was very curious when he heard that someone had better cooking skills than opello, and that opello had agreed to it. This time, they were going to choose two cities. The first one would definitely be the capital of Huaxia. This was not a problem. All leaders would go to the capital for communication.
The second one was directly set in Chengdu. Yuan Zhou had yet to receive the specific details.
“I’ll have to make the arrangements, right?” Yuan Zhou had experienced it once, so he wasn’t touching it blindly.
“We need to order a menu. Just in case, we need to order two sets. If there are any changes, we may change them at the last minute. There are also many foods we don’t eat, but don’t worry too much. We have the information.” Zhou Shijie then turned to Zhong Lili and said,””Li Li, show the information to little Yuan.”
Zhong Lili directly took out a stack of documents from her briefcase and passed them to Yuan Zhou. The documents were not thick, about a dozen pages long, but there were words on them.
“Alright, I got it.” Yuan Zhou received the information and didn’t read it immediately.
Following that, Zhou Shijie began to tell Yuan Zhou about some things he had encountered in the past or how to deal with unexpected situations using the previous examples. Yuan Zhou’s culinary skills were excellent, but he still couldn’t take things lightly when he received the Prime Minister of a country.
Knowing that Zhou Shijie meant well, Yuan Zhou listened to him very seriously. The old man and the young man talked one after another and time passed very quickly.
“That’s all I can think of for now. If I think of anything else, I’ll let you know.” Zhou Shijie said.
“Alright, thank you for your trouble, uncle Zhou.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
“How’s your research on the Singapore cuisines going, little Yuan?” Zhou Shijie asked.
She knew that there were no Singapore cuisines on the menu. There were only a few foreign cuisines, and the most common one was steak.
To be honest, Zhou Shijie had never seen a restaurant with such a complete range of steaks, be it domestic or foreign.
There was a period of time when the Association wasn’t very busy. Zhou Shijie had been eating steak here for a few days. The taste was simply amazing.
“I’m almost done with the new dish. I’ll put it on the menu when I have the time. ” Yuan Zhou told the truth.
“The menu is ready? Little Yuan, you really are … You should also pay attention to rest and not work too hard. ” Zhou Shijie was startled. His first reaction was that Yuan Zhou had been studying it day and night again.
There was no need to mention anything else. Since he had already reached the level where he could put the dishes on the menu, there was no need to worry at all. Regarding this, Zhou Shijie was very confident.
“No, it’s the same as usual. Don’t worry, uncle Zhou.” Yuan Zhou said earnestly.
His time was well planned every day. He had already planned when to open for business, when to practice cooking, and when to accompany his wife. If there was an accident, like today, he would have to find time to make up for the time he had wasted.
“It’s good that you know what you’re doing. Take care of your health. You’re still young.” Zhou Shijie said.
He hoped that Yuan Zhou could go further and further. As an elder, he hoped even more that Yuan Zhou wouldn’t go further and further because of his health.
“Thank you, uncle Zhou.” Yuan Zhou said.
“It’s Lili’s birthday today. It’s okay to order an all-fish banquet, right?” Zhou Shijie suddenly said.
“What?” Yuan Zhou was a little dumbfounded. Why did he change the topic?
“…” Zhong Lili.
Why did the topic suddenly fall on her? what happened?
“My birthday is in a month?” Zhong Lili felt that she had already forgotten when her birthday was.
“I heard from Lili’s father that today is the solar calendar’s birthday. Is that right?” Zhou Shijie said with a look of certainty.
“That’s true. ” Zhong Lili counted it carefully and found it was true. However, she had only celebrated her lunar birthday, so she didn’t need to say that.
“Lili, you’ve been working for me for so long. It’s only right that uncle Zhou celebrate your birthday. The all-fish banquet prepared by little Yuan is the most suitable. You can try it when the time comes.” Zhou Shijie said.
To be honest, Zhong Lili had never eaten the all-fish banquet in master chef Restaurant before. It was not that she couldn’t afford it, but she really didn’t have the chance to eat it.
Now that Zhou Shijie had said it directly, what could Zhong Lili do? she could only agree to it. After all, Zhou Shijie was her elder.
“The all-fish banquet is set. Can we have it for lunch?” After Zhou Shijie settled Zhong Lili, he turned his head and said to Yuan Zhou.
Ever since Yuan Zhou treated him to the all-fish banquet last time, Zhou Shijie hadn’t been able to find an opportunity to eat it again. He had no choice but to follow the rules of the master chef Restaurant. Even he couldn’t get in through the back door.
Wasn’t this a coincidence? yesterday, Zhou Shijie happened to be chatting with Lili’s father and they talked about the lunar and solar birthdays. As a result, Zhou Shijie immediately paid attention to it. Coincidentally, he was going to look for Yuan Zhou. Therefore, after searching for quite a while, he found that today was the solar birthday of Zhong Lili. Thus, they were all alive.
Zhong Lili didn’t know that at all. Although she felt strange, she was still quite touched.
“Alright,” he said. Yuan Zhou checked the time and felt it was not a problem to prepare for it now. It was also in accordance with the regulations, so he nodded his head.
“Little Yuan, I’ll leave you to your work. I’ll go out for a walk and line up at the same time.” Zhou Shijie stood up and left directly.
Therefore, Yuan Zhou stood up and sent Zhou Shijie and Zhong Lili out of the door. Then, he went upstairs to wash up and change his clothes, intending to prepare the ingredients for lunch.
“When are you going to add the new dish to the menu?” Yuan Zhou considered,”why don’t you add it after I design the menu? anyway, it’s only for a few days.”
After thinking about it, Yuan Zhou felt that he still needed to wait for a few days. He hadn’t practiced cooking new dishes for a while, so he decided to try it out first.
After that, Yuan Zhou didn’t think about anything else. He directly went down to wash his hands and prepare the ingredients. Soon, the lunch time started.
Of course, he still couldn’t win over the son of barbecued pork. Zhou Shijie and Zhong Lili were ranked third and fourth.
“Dad, you’re here for dinner too?” Zhou Xi naturally had to greet his father first.
“Yes.” Zhou Shijie answered with a Humph.
After that, there was no “after that.” After all, it was a fake father-and-son relationship. There was no need to continue so many old things. Of course, this was on the basis that Zhou Xi didn’t know that his biological father had ordered the all-fish banquet.
