Chapter 1562

That was how time was. When you expected it to pass slowly, it passed quickly. The guests naturally knew that there would be a satisfaction vote after tonight’s dinner, which meant that the personal cooking exhibition was officially over.

Therefore, everyone tacitly hoped that it would end slowly. Even the business Big Boss surnamed Zhu, who was usually the most anxious to eat, didn’t mention dinner.

Even so, the dinner time arrived as scheduled. From the appetizer to the drinks, they were soon served slowly according to the process set by Yuan Zhou.

“AI.” The one who sighed was Francis. He had been sighing like this since dinner. Every time he finished a dish or a drink, he would sigh like this.

He had sighed at least a few times since dinner.

After sighing again, he was finally interrupted by Auguste, who said unhappily,””Hey, please don’t affect my mood to taste delicious food.”

“Yes, Francis. If you have any questions, I think you can leave early. We’re all willing to help you with the food.” Manfeld nodded.

“Yes. If you waste it, you will be blacklisted by head chef Yuan.” Chu Xiao nodded his head and said with a serious look.

“It’s shameful to waste. I’m willing to help.” Salomon, who rarely spoke, spoke out as well.

“Oh, you guys are really not friends. You know what I’m sighing about, but you still say that.” Francis looked at his friends who were staring at his plate with hostility.

“No, I don’t understand.” Auguste said without hesitation.

“Alright, I won’t sigh anymore. I’m just a little regretful that it’ll be a long time before I have the chance to eat such delicious food again after this.” Francis was also afraid that the people who were doing this would really snatch the food, so he could only say this seriously.

“According to the current serving speed, the main course will be served next. After the main course, there will be two vegetarian dishes and a snack. That will be the end of the dinner.” Salomon said sharply.

“Furthermore, based on head chef Yuan’s speed, this process will not even take half an hour. In other words, head chef Yuan’s personal cooking exhibition will officially end in half an hour.” Salomon didn’t wait for the others to reply, and continued.

As soon as he finished speaking, not only did the people at this table look at him with collective condemnation, but even the people at the next table who heard him couldn’t help but look at Salomon with dark expressions.

“Are you a devil?” Francis could not help but ask.

“No, I’m just telling the truth.” Salomon said, shaking his head.

“You should just shut up.” Auguste said to Salomon in a bad mood.

Salomon shrugged his shoulders and really did not say anything.

However, with his words, everyone really felt a little depressed for a moment. After all, it was a fact that the delicious food would be finished in half an hour.

Fortunately, the main dish of the night was served at this time. The beautiful waiter who served the dishes to everyone gently read the name of the dish in Chinese and English,””Fragrant smooth fish ball.”

“Is fish the main dish tonight? It looks pretty good. ” Augustus said.

“It’s really good. This is bass. ” Chu Xiao also nodded his head.

“Bass? That looks like a real Japan bass. ” Manfeld said as he stared at the fish in front of him.

“Yes, it looks like it.” Auguste nodded.

“In China, this fish is called seabass.” Chu Xiao said indifferently.

“This fish doesn’t have any bones, so it should be quite delicious.” Francis didn’t care about the name of the fish, he just wanted to eat it.

“Of course. Head chef Yuan’s cooking is naturally not bad. After all, his cooking skills are unfathomable.” Chu Xiao nodded and said.

After saying that, Chu Xiao also lowered his head and started to eat. Beside him, Salomon, ogyust and Manfeld naturally also started to eat.

This time, the fish balls were placed on a dark wooden plate like the other dishes. The dark brown, glossy wooden plate was filled with snow-white fish balls of the same size.

Upon closer inspection, one could see that the fish balls were not actually balls, but the fish meat had curled into balls after being heated. Each fish ball was cut with an exquisite flower knife.

With Auguste’s eyesight, he could naturally see that the reason the fish ball had become a ball was because of the flower blades.

The fish meat was tender, so not only did Auguste use chopsticks, but he also held a spoon in his left hand, afraid that he would drop it if he did not pick it up properly.

After carefully picking up the fish ball, Auguste did not put it into his mouth immediately. Instead, he placed the fish ball on the spoon and took a small bite.

“Kacha” this was the sound of his teeth knocking on the slightly charred outer layer of fish meat. After that, an extremely fresh taste rushed into his mouth.

The bass itself had tender meat, and the fish was in the shape of garlic, which tasted tender and sweet.

However, this fragrant smooth fish ball was made by deep-frying the fish meat that was cut into a length of 6 cm, a width of 3 cm, and a thickness of 6 cm before it was stir-fried evenly.

In this way, the outer layer of the bass was a little harder and crunchy, and the taste was more rich.

Not to mention that Yuan Zhou added the clear soup that he had boiled himself when he was stir-frying evenly.

As the saying goes,”performing opera,” the chef’s soup and Yuan Zhou’s soup were all prepared by him in the past few days. The attentiveness of each soup was no less than that of a main dish.

With such a soup to enhance the taste, it made the simple and smooth fish ball even more delicious.

Therefore, Auguste could not help but eat half of the fish ball in one go.

“No, I just wanted to slowly taste it.” Auguste, who had come back to his senses, looked at the half-eaten fish ball on his plate and felt a little helpless.

“It seems like it’s very difficult to eat head chef Yuan’s dishes slowly.” Auguste could not help but sigh in his heart.

Then, due to self-restraint, Auguste’s eating speed indeed slowed down. As soon as he slowed down, he thought of what Chu Xiao said on the first day.

That was the dish that Yuan Zhou could make according to each person’s taste as mentioned by Chu Xiao. On the first day, the drinks were obviously different.

Next, everyone was basically the same, but Auguste suddenly thought of another possibility of Chu Xiao’s words and immediately turned his head to look at Francis.

“Hey, give me one of your fish balls.” Auguste said to Francis, his face full of excitement and anxiety.

Francis, who was eating a delicious fish ball, ignored Auguste. He only realized what Auguste had said when Auguste nudged his arm.

In an instant, Francis looked at Auguste as if he was an idiot. He even cautiously moved his plate away, trying to avoid Auguste’s gaze.

“That’s impossible. ” Francis said in a clear voice.

“You’ve misunderstood. I’m saying we can exchange a fish ball. You eat mine, and I eat yours.” Auguste could tell from Francis’s expression that Francis thought he was going to take his food, so he explained.

However, as soon as he explained, Francis moved the plate closer to Chu Xiao and even protected his plate with his arm this time.

“…” Auguste, who wanted to verify his thoughts, was instantly speechless.
