Chapter 1989

Yuan Zhou looked around and found the prepared kitchen was very large. In terms of area, it was much larger than the kitchen of master chef Restaurant and could accommodate a team of more than 20 chefs.

Such a welcome banquet originally required a professional team. In addition to the head chef, there was also a sous-chef, a helmsman, an anvil, a serving tray, a water table, and so on.

There were first and second anvils on each anvulture. There were also big and small workers, not to mention the Lotus king who was hammering the Lotus. If they needed any noodles or cold dishes, they had to be listed separately.

Of course, what was mentioned above was the traditional large-scale banquet team. It would be a different story if Yuan Zhou was present.

“It looks okay.” Yuan Zhou made an inspection and found the kitchen counter, kitchenware, and other corners were all clean. They should have been carefully cleaned in advance.

“That’s good. ” While saying that, Yuan Zhou picked up the snow-white towel on the table and cleaned the whole kitchen carefully again after soaking it in water.

While Yuan Zhou was cleaning, Cheng zhaomei was picked up by Xiao Gu. Xiao Gu and ding were guarding the door while Yuan Zhou went in himself. This was the rule.

“Master, let me help you.” Cheng zhaomei said immediately when she entered and saw Yuan Zhou cleaning the place.

As for cleaning, he had gained a lot of experience from su Ruoyan, Zhou Jia, and the others when he followed them around the restaurant.

“Let’s go together. Be careful. ” Yuan Zhou agreed.

He could ask Cheng zhaomei to help him with such a small matter. Of course, the main battlefield in the kitchen was definitely done by Yuan Zhou himself. Only the kitchen counter at the side was assigned to Cheng zhaomei.

“I know, master.” Master Cheng readily agreed.

After the washing, the next step was to prepare the dishes. Cheng zhaomei was not of much use to him. Yuan Zhou was always doing everything on his own, whether it was the side dishes or the heaping.

There were four cold dishes at the beginning of the banquet. Yuan Zhou prepared two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes. The theme of the banquet was “fragrant and spicy hotpot”.

It wasn’t the spicy hot pot dish in Jiang Hu cuisine.”Fragrant” referred to the spices,”spicy” referred to the slight spiciness,”fresh” referred to the fresh crab, and “pot” referred to the cooking method.

Remember, the mildly spicy level is the Yu sect’s mildly spicy level, and not in any other sense.

The full title of the banquet menu was “fragrant and spicy hotpot, a welcome from the nature wrap”. Yuan Zhou used Cantonese and Sichuan cuisines as the main cuisines mixed with other cuisines. The cooking techniques and dishes included at least five cuisines. This was the nature wrap.

The suffix “welcome” was a given. It was the first time that the Prime Minister of Singapore had come to Chengdu. There was no theme more suitable than this.

As for the specific dishes, it was based on the Singapore cuisines. According to the rules of taboo, a detailed menu was formulated.

For example, the first dish of the cold dishes,”lucky hands of heaven and earth”, was based on the sweet sauce pig trotters in Singapore dishes. It was made by using the method of cutting pig trotters with white ginger in Cantonese style. With the current level of Yuan Zhou’s Cantonese cooking skills, the way he made it was also different from the ordinary ones.

“Master’s cooking is so exquisite and fast that I probably won’t be able to catch up in this lifetime. I should think about whether I can grow a pair of hands in my next life.” Cheng zhaomei looked on without blinking and sighed.

Yuan Zhou busily prepared the ingredients for lunch and began to cook the first dish on the menu. The Prime Minister had almost finished the tour accompanied by his entourage and was planning to come to the hotel for a meal.

“Tang le, are you sure the dishes for lunch today were prepared by the yuan chef?” Li Yanhua was sitting in the car. Everyone was around him now, so he was more relaxed.

The two of them had a good personal relationship, which was why they could make this trip to Chengdu possible. They could also accompany each other. Otherwise, they would have to wait in the hotel like the others.

“I’m sure it’s correct. I’ve already sent out the documents and the meal arrangements have been confirmed.” Tang Lei said.

“Although I’ve asked many times, I still can’t help but ask. Is it really that delicious? I’ve seen the photo before. This head chef Yuan seems to be too young. ” Li Yanhua said.

If he was better than head chef opello at such a young age, he would be even better in the future.

“Master said it himself, so it should be true.” Tang Lei said with a serious face.

Opello is the best cook in our country.” Li Yanhua didn’t finish his sentence. Tang Lei knew what he meant, but he didn’t say anything.

They couldn’t be sloppy in welcoming the Prime Minister. A red carpet was laid out at the entrance of the hotel and flower pots were placed. The leaders were busy receiving them. After a professional reception, they let the Prime Minister and the others into the dining room.

Tea was served first, and they began to chat. It was time for the dishes to be served.

“Ta ta ta.”

A group of beautiful women in cheongsam walked from the corridor to the kitchen with trays in their hands. They were going to serve the dishes.

“Dong Dong Dong”

Ding knocked on the door and then said loudly,””Head chef Yuan, it’s time to serve the dishes.”

“Swish”

The door was immediately opened, revealing Cheng zhaomei’s serious face. She looked around and saw the team of waiters opening the door and saying,””The first cold dish is here, come and get it.”

The notice Yuan Zhou received was to prepare five tables in total and 20 cold dishes. Of course, the cold dishes were repeated in the form of 4×5 dishes. It could only be said that the number was quite a lot.

At that time, they were all placed neatly on the countertop over there. Yuan Zhou was also preparing the hot dishes in an orderly manner. Only in this way could he ensure the best taste.

Upon hearing Cheng zhaomei’s call, a team of people immediately came in to put the dishes on the tray and walked out.

One table per person was very reasonable.

The people at the main table also stopped chatting, mainly because it was too fragrant. Logically speaking, since it was a cold dish, it definitely wouldn’t have such a strong fragrance. However, that was according to logic. The wall hanging had never been reasonable.

After these four cold dishes occupied the four corners of the table, an obvious fragrance drilled into people’s nostrils, and it was really difficult to ignore.

“Prime Minister li, welcome to Rong city. I don’t know if this welcoming banquet is to your taste, I hope you don’t mind.” The leader, leader song, started the conversation.

Leader song was definitely experienced. He could still finish his speech in an orderly manner in the face of the aroma of delicious food.

Of course, this could also be related to the fact that the hot dishes had not yet arrived.

“General song, you’re too kind. It’s close, so it’s good to visit often. There’s no need to deliberately entertain us.” Li Yanhua was also a man of words.

After a round of mutual praise, they began to eat.

Sha jiangbai’s pig’s hand was very eye-catching. After all, the pig’s hand was big, and the bones were also very big, so most people saw it at first glance.

“It’s indeed fragrant, but it’s a little unsightly. Isn’t it too much to gnaw on a bone in public? why didn’t I think of this when I was confirming the menu?” Leader song thought to himself.

However, the fragrance had been tempting him. Therefore, he still reached out his hand and picked a piece into the bowl. He had also participated in the Asia-Pacific Exchange meeting previously and knew Yuan Zhou’s craftsmanship. Being inelegant and not eating it were absolutely two different things.

Li Yanhua followed closely behind and also picked up a pig’s hand. The reason was that he liked to eat opello’s sweet sauce pig’s hand. He wanted to try this white one and see if it was any different from the thick oil and red sauce pig’s hand he had.

“Creak”

Li Yanhua poked it out of habit after he put it into the plate, hoping that it would taste better when he put it into the chopsticks. Then, he witnessed a miracle.
