The process of waiting passed while Deng Xueli was actively handling the documents. In fact, if it weren’t for the constant reminder of her stomachache, Deng Xueli would have forgotten that she had not eaten.
After another round of stomach-twisting pain, it was finally the last batch of people who entered the restaurant to eat.
“Please come in for a meal.” Zhou Jia went out and said that personally.
At this time, Deng Xueli, whose stomach was already in pain, also put away her laptop. When she heard this, she straightened her back and entered the door.
The empty restaurant was filled with customers again.
“The menu is behind you and on the table. You can only order what’s on the menu. If you’re not sure if you have it, you can ask me.” It was Cheng Cheng who spoke.
She had been working in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant for so long that she was almost familiar with the dishes on Yuan Zhou’s menu.
The other customers all started to look at the menu. Then, Zhou Jia entered the restaurant and began to order.
Deng Xueli looked at the menu of Guizhou cuisine. After a careful look, she was relieved.”He really lives up to his reputation. He even has such an ordinary qiansi cuisine. As expected, this boss yuan can cook an entire qiansi cuisine, no matter if it’s a main dish or a side dish.”
Yes, Deng Xueli found what she wanted to eat on the menu.
“Order,” Deng Xueli said.
“Alright, please wait a moment.” The one who responded was Cheng Han. She quickly walked over.
“I want this, steamed bacon, and a bowl of white rice from the 100 styles of rice cuisine.” Deng Xueli pointed at the two dishes on the menu and said.
“Okay. Please pay first before you eat.” Cheng Cheng responded.
“I know the rules. I’ve already paid.” Xueli Deng nodded and took out her phone. The price of the dishes she had just ordered was displayed on the screen.
The welcoming set meal was also included in the price.
Obviously, although it was her first time eating in the restaurant, Deng Xueli still knew the rules, or rather, she carefully read the rules on the wall after entering the restaurant.
“Alright, please wait a moment.” Cheng Cheng confirmed the amount and smiled, then left.
Deng Xueli nodded and subconsciously wanted to take out her tablet, but when she saw the welcoming set meal that had just been served, she stopped and took a sip of water.
His empty, hungry stomach was soothed a little, and he no longer tried to make his presence known.
“Grand Master, I have a new order.” On the other side, Cheng Han walked over to the partition and called out loudly.
“Just tell me directly.” Yuan Zhou set down the dishes and then said.
While speaking, Yuan Zhou didn’t even turn his head. He directly went back to the kitchen and continued cooking. Even the last batch of customers couldn’t be careless.
“Alright, Grand Master.” Cheng Cheng nodded and then reported the name of the dish.
Yuan Zhou nodded his head slightly and then continued what he was doing.
Although Yuan Zhou knew the saltiness and sweetness of each customer who entered the restaurant, he didn’t know that until he had seen them.
After Yuan Zhou heard the menu, he turned his head and took a look at Deng Xueli who was sitting there. Then, he turned his head back and went back to cooking.
No matter how difficult or complicated the dish was, it wasn’t a problem in Yuan Zhou’s hands, let alone the two home-cooked dishes ordered by Deng Xueli. In just six or seven minutes, Cheng Han came back again with the tray.
There was a steamed bacon, a bowl of white rice, and an enamel cup. These were the dishes Xueli Deng had ordered.
“Here’s your order. Please enjoy. ” Cheng Han served the dishes one by one and then said.
“Thank you,” he said. Deng Xueli nodded to thank him and then turned her eyes to the dishes that had just been served.
The first thing that caught Deng Xueli’s attention was the White enamel cup, which contained a bowl of soup that looked like egg soup.
“This cup is quite interesting.” Deng Xueli rubbed the handle of the cup and couldn’t help but whisper.
Suppressing the chaotic thoughts in her mind, Deng Xueli picked up the cup and took a sip.
There was more than half a cup of egg soup in the White enamel cup. The mouth of the cup was not small, and the first thing that entered the nose was the smell of eggs with a little heat.
The cup tilted slightly, and the soup slipped into his mouth. It was smooth and carried the unique fragrance of eggs, as well as the thickness and smoothness of eggs. It went down his throat and directly into his stomach.
The warm egg soup immediately soothed the dull pain in his stomach.
“It tastes like …” Deng Xueli swallowed the egg soup in her mouth and couldn’t help but say.
Deng Xueli didn’t continue drinking, but put down the cup and looked at the egg soup carefully.
In fact, it was not egg soup, but eggs mixed with white sugar and boiling water. The boiling water directly washed the raw eggs, turning them into half-cooked eggs.
This was a special way of eating in Guizhou in the past. Now, boiled eggs were both rare and common.
To put it bluntly, eggs were not expensive and could be eaten at any time. They would not be served with boiled eggs. However, Deng Xueli still liked to order this soup in a restaurant that was good at cooking Guizhou cuisine, and she asked for raw eggs.
Every time she ate it, it didn’t taste like what she remembered, but this bowl made her feel that it tasted like when she was young.
As a Senior Manager of a beauty salon chain, Xueli could tell her a lot about the use of eggs.
She was even very clear about the effects of boiled eggs on clearing heat, stopping coughing, replenishing protein, and protecting vision. However, she didn’t eat them for health, but for an inexplicable obsession.
“Gulp.” Deng Xueli took another sip of the egg soup and ignored the appetizing dishes on the side.
Moreover, the more Deng Xueli drank, the slower she drank. Luckily, the temperature in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was as warm as spring all year round. Even the dishes served on the table wouldn’t turn cold quickly. Otherwise, the dishes would have turned cold long ago.
When Deng Xueli finished the egg soup and only had one mouthful left, she finally couldn’t help but say,””Boss Yuan, how come your egg can be so authentic?”
Yes, in Deng Xueli’s eyes, this was the boiled egg of Guizhou cuisine.
Deng Xueli wasn’t pretty. She looked ordinary, but her eyes were bright and she was very confident, so her words were hard to ignore.
As soon as she opened her mouth, Zhou Jia and Cheng Han both looked at her subconsciously.
Only Yuan Zhou finished stir-frying the dishes in his hand unhurriedly and then carried them to the partition according to his own steps, waiting for the customers to take them away.
At this time, Deng Xueli, who had just finished asking and knew that she was being rude, also sobered up and quickly said,””I’m sorry. ”
“I’m fine. ” Yuan Zhou said indifferently.
“You mean the boiled water for the eggs?” Yuan Zhou said.
“Why do you make it so authentic? this is the taste of my childhood. No other shop can make it.” Xueli Deng said.
“It’s simple. When you were a child, you ate a fishy smell. Other shops use raw eggs that can remove the fishy smell. The fishy smell is actually not a good taste. However, without this fishy smell, it’s not the delicious taste you want.” Yuan Zhou said.
“You’re not using raw eggs?” Although Deng Xueli didn’t care, she still asked curiously.
“No, I used the same thing, but I kept the original taste of the egg, the fishy taste you ate.” Yuan Zhou said.
“So it’s like this?” “Boss Yuan, didn’t you say that the fishy smell isn’t a good taste? why did you deliberately keep it?” Deng Xueli muttered and then asked.
Deng Xueli’s question also aroused the curiosity of the people around her. They were not stupid. It was obvious that this special egg needed to be cultivated and spent a lot of energy.
It was not Yuan Zhou’s style to spend time to cultivate something bad.
“Every place has its own taste. There are advantages and disadvantages, but that’s what a local delicacy is. Moreover, it’s only delicious if it can satisfy the customers ‘taste.” Yuan Zhou answered.
Looking at Deng Xueli’s nostalgic and enlightened manner, Yuan Zhou suddenly had an idea and thought of one thing.
