There was a saying that the shock of hearing and seeing was different.
“Sometimes, when a person becomes famous, they will have all kinds of halos. For example, a sentence will have all kinds of meanings answered. Therefore, I think head chef Yuan is only good at one or two cuisines. I think it’s quite reliable. The rest of the cuisines are just good.” Secretary Fang liked to see the essence of things through appearances. Of course, he didn’t dare to say it out loud. After all, Yuan Zhou was really famous.
After all, a person’s energy was limited. One could master one, two, or even three unique skills. However, to master all of them, one was definitely not a human. One might even be a God.
Secretary Fang peeked at Yuan Zhou. He had a delicate face and a pretty face. He definitely looked like a human.
Even leader Zhao and Gao Fei felt that what he said made sense.
“You guys don’t have to be so polite. I’ve already promised to treat you. At most, it’s just a month’s salary. Don’t be so polite.” Leader Zhao said very boldly.
As he said that, he flipped open the menu. The first thing he saw was Sichuan cuisine. Looking at the prices one by one, even he felt a little frightened.
“Hiss”
He took a deep breath and muttered in his heart,””Why is it so expensive? Is there really no problem with the Bureau of commodity prices?”
Of course, as the head of the tourism Bureau, he naturally knew the problem of the pricing of the shops. As long as the price was clearly stated, as long as it was not written that the fried potatoes were 18 Yuan per plate, it was illegal to say that the plate was a piece of potato at the checkout.
“The existence of such a high price should be related to the ingredients.” Leader Zhao thought to himself. Although he understood, he still felt a little uncomfortable. He felt that a month’s salary was probably not enough.
After flipping through a few pages, there were familiar dishes and unfamiliar dishes. Some he had heard of, and some he had never heard of, such as the Cantonese dish fly head and the turtledove tofu from Sichuan.
“It’s too complete,” Leader Zhao thought to himself.
If he didn’t know how to cook it or didn’t do it well, he would be slapped in the face if he showed it out so openly. Moreover, it was impossible for a chef that Zhou Shijie and the others held in such high regard to have any problems. Moreover, the Honors he had found out couldn’t be faked.
All of a sudden, leader Zhao started to believe what Zhou Shijie and the others said. However, the creation of a food street had always been his dream. Since he was already here, it would be a loss if he didn’t eat it. He had to try it.
Even leader Zhao had this kind of reaction. As a professional chef, Gao Fei’s reaction when he flipped through the menu was naturally even greater. Although he felt that it was impossible, he still had a weak idea. It was impossible for him to be good at everything. However, such a detailed menu made Gao Fei feel that his previous thoughts were ridiculous.
As for Secretary Fang, he was much calmer. He didn’t think too much about it. Although the price was high, he had heard of restaurants that were even more expensive than this. He knew very well that it wasn’t a simple restaurant that could make the leader come to inspect it personally.
As a Secretary, he should always share the worries of the leader. Secretary Fang was now thinking about how to make the leader’s inspection more thorough and complete with the limited dishes.
Probably because he had used his brain too much, Secretary Fang’s eyes soon lit up with an idea. He turned to the side and saw that the young lady who was ordering had not come over yet. He immediately whispered to leader Zhao,””Leader, I just looked at the six cuisines. They are Lu cuisines, Sichuan cuisines, Jiangsu cuisines, Cantonese cuisines, Dian cuisines, and Guizhou cuisines. In order to achieve the purpose of inspection, I think we should each order two cuisines to try out. One cuisines and one dish. What do you think?”
The standard of two dishes per person was not bad. Moreover, there were six cuisines in the restaurant, so the three of them were just right to distribute the food. It was not a waste and met the standard. Secretary Fang couldn’t help but want to give himself a like. He was so smart.
When leader Zhao heard Secretary Fang’s words, he was suddenly enlightened. In the beginning, to be honest, leader Zhao had always wanted to order some old Lu dishes to try, such as tofu box, fried sophora flower, green bean pork shank, dry crisp fish, crisp white meat, and other rare but very technical dishes. He had already prepared them in advance.
But now, the thick menu reminded him that all the preparations he had made were useless. For a moment, he couldn’t think of a good solution.
Secretary Fang’s words were a timely rain, and it was a good idea.
“Then I’ll order some Shandong and Sichuan cuisines. You guys can choose the rest.” Leader Zhao said.
“Head chef Gao, you go first,” Secretary Fang said to Gao Fei politely.
“In that case, I’d like to try some Guizhou and Yunnan cuisines,” Gao Fei said after some thought.
He was very interested in the cuisines of these two provinces with many ethnic minorities. He usually ate less, so it was naturally a good idea to try head chef Yuan’s dishes.
“The rest is mine,” Secretary Fang said with a smile.
When the three of them settled down, su Ruoyan walked up and asked about the order,””What would you like to order?”
Leader Zhao had clearly thought it over. He said directly, “Let’s have a swallow in the sea and a cold rabbit. “
“I’ll have a night man, a gossip chicken, and a cow throw. ” As a chef, Gao Fei naturally ordered special dishes.
Secretary Fang was a little anxious. As a native of Sichuan, he had many opportunities to eat chili, but not Jiangsu and Cantonese dishes. He flipped through the menu and saw a dazzling list of Jiangsu and Cantonese dishes. He heaved a sigh of relief and ordered the common dishes.”I’d like a meatball with crab powder and a stir-fried beef River.”
“Okay. Do you need rice?” Su Ruoyan noted it down and asked.
Leader Zhao and Gao Fei expressed their interest, but Secretary Fang expressed his objection. After all, stir-fried beef River could be used as a meal.
After memorizing it, su Ruoyan took her leave politely and passed the menu to Yuan Zhou who just came out with the dishes.
Yuan Zhou received the list and took a glance at it. He found there were several lettuce on the list that was rarely ordered by people. He took a look at it curiously,”isn’t this head chef Gao? Are you here to eat?”
After looking around, he only knew Gao Fei. As for the other two, he didn’t know them and didn’t pay much attention to them. Yuan Zhou took the list and walked into the kitchen, starting to cook.
After ordering the dishes, the three of them finally had some free time and could watch Yuan Zhou cook.
Unfortunately, as their line of sight was blocked, as long as Yuan Zhou didn’t stand here and use the stove that was directly facing them, they wouldn’t be able to see the full view. They could only see the half view. Yuan Zhou’s face couldn’t be clearer.
Although they couldn’t see Yuan Zhou’s hand movements, they could still see Yuan Zhou turning here and there with an indifferent expression. He didn’t stop at all and appeared to be very busy. However, he didn’t seem to be in a mess. On the contrary, he appeared to be very rhythmic. Even just looking at him like that was pleasing to the eyes.
“It’s the first time I’ve known that a chef’s cooking has such a high aesthetic value. ” Leader Zhao’s eyes were sharp.
“I’m far inferior. ” Gao Fei replied subconsciously without even blinking his eyes.
As the saying went,”laymen watch the show, while professionals watch the tricks.” Gao Fei was one of the best among the professionals. Although he couldn’t see the whole picture, just the occasional bit of it was shocking enough. His cooking skills were definitely a few streets ahead of his.
Although he had seen Yuan Zhou’s cooking videos before, watching a video and watching it on the spot were two different concepts.
