“I was wrong, I was really wrong. I shouldn’t have been so confident from the beginning.”
“If I wasn’t that confident, I wouldn’t have ordered all three of the dishes I wanted to eat at once.”
“If I didn’t order all of them, I …”
After finishing the bacon-flavored rice, he wasn’t full at all and immediately wanted to eat another one. After that, he felt full after finishing the White-cut chicken rice, and finally, the black bean spareribs rice was served.
He had to admit that boss Yuan’s culinary skills were really good. Even though he was full, he still wanted to eat the goose when he saw it. However, the result of eating the goose made Bai Lang feel that his stomach was about to burst.
“Ha, weaklings.” Happy and brain saw this and sneered.
Fortunately, the crow beasts were the first batch to finish eating and leave. Otherwise, the crow beasts would also be very happy and intelligent to look at the nesting dolls and call them “weaklings.”
The peak of his happiness and brain was getting the first drop of blood from the Black Beast and he would talk about it from time to time.
This event was enough to be recorded in history for future generations to Revere. This was the most glorious moment of their ancestors.
The customers came and went. After Yuan Zhou sent the last customer away, he started to do his own things.
At present, there were still many things that needed to be done. In addition to practicing cooking, he also had to study yin and yang. During the completion of the blessing task, he should be able to complete this dish if he had new inspiration.
They had waited long enough for the Lei question. It was time for the results to be out.
Yuan Zhou felt that he was studying a little too slowly and made them wait for a long time. But Lei ti and Guo penghao didn’t think so.
Guo penghao had already stayed in Chengdu for almost a month, leaving his belongings behind. Except for the time when Yuan Zhou asked for leave and went back to deal with some urgent matters, he basically had no intention of leaving at all.
Even Lei ti felt that Guo penghao was too decadent. However, Guo penghao always said righteously,””I’m just concerned. After all, the dish Yin, Qing, Yuan, and que has something to do with our ancestors.” This was half true and half false. Fortunately, Guo penghao had more freedom in his work.
Back to the main topic, Yuan Zhou looked at the dishes on the plate in front of him and kept feeling that something was missing.
While stroking his chin, Yuan Zhou carefully recalled the process of cooking just now. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind,””Hot and cold. It’s crisp and fragrant. The word ‘glutinous’ should be the key.”
Thinking of what he was lacking, Yuan Zhou immediately threw himself into trying a new round of dishes. Before he started, he first recorded the previous cooking process in the notebook and then started a new round.
Time passed by minute by minute and Yuan Zhou was fully concentrated on cooking. Both the heat control and the knife skills were maintained at the best level.
“I’ve finally made it. There shouldn’t be any problems this time. ” Yuan Zhou picked up the chopsticks and had a taste. He felt it was basically the same as described in the ancient books.
“This dish is unexpectedly interesting. I don’t know if it’s the same cooking method as before, but the description is the same. There’s no difference.” Yuan Zhou pondered.
There were only some dried words in the record, such as the year and season of the ingredients, which couldn’t be verified. Yuan Zhou could only extract from the record and couldn’t find all of them. He could only rely on his own imagination and pondering.
“System, did you successfully restore my dish?” Yuan Zhou suddenly asked.
“My Lord, the system did not record the process of making this dish. The dish was lost in history, but the host’s description of this dish has been restored to 99%.” The system displayed.
“It’s considered a success to have such a high score. ” Yuan Zhou let out a breath.
Actually, the difficulty of restoring a dish and creating a new dish was almost the same. Moreover, there was too little information this time. Therefore, Yuan Zhou had to spend some time thinking about it.
“I don’t know how many famous chefs ‘hard work has been lost in the long river of history. The only thing I can do is to try my best to find clues and hope to restore these hard works.”
At present, Yuan Zhou had already restored the original dishes, such as three fragrance to the ocean, real perfume, and roasted golden bird.
“I know. I know the topic for my second solo exhibition. It’s called lost food. The theme is the food lost in history.” Yuan Zhou’s eyes lit up.
Ever since he had achieved a record-breaking score in the first exhibition, August and the others had been urging Yuan Zhou to hold the second one.
However, Yuan Zhou had been delaying it with the excuse that he didn’t have a theme. Now that he had a theme, he could plan it slowly. Of course, he had to wait until after the bogus world cooking competition.
Yuan Zhou took out his phone and found the number left by Guo penghao before and directly dialed it. With a “toot du du” sound, the call was connected very soon.
“Head chef Yuan, may I know why you are looking for me?” Guo penghao said.
“Mister Guo, the dish in your ancient book has been restored. You can come and have a look when you have time.” Yuan Zhou went straight to the point.
A clattering sound came from the other end of the phone. After thinking for a while, Yuan Zhou assumed that it must be because Guo penghao was too happy. After a few seconds, he heard Guo penghao’s voice,””Head chef Yuan, did you just say that the dish in the ancient book I brought here has been made? It’s only half a month!”
“That’s right. It has been studied. To be precise, it matches the description. As for whether it’s the dish that your ancestor ate, I can’t guarantee.” Yuan Zhou felt it was better to make things clear.
“That’s already very impressive. I wonder if I can come over tomorrow?” Guo penghao was very concerned about this matter, which could be seen from the fact that he had found many chefs to see if they could restore it.
In fact, Guo penghao couldn’t explain why he cared so much. Sometimes, people had strange persistence, and this was what Guo penghao was doing.
“Sure, just come over tomorrow morning.” Yuan Zhou calculated the time of the Gaogou restaurant meeting silently and then said.
“Thank you, head chef Yuan. Copper and I will be there on time. We won’t disturb you any further.” Guo penghao hung up the phone.
Guo penghao grabbed Lei di, who was beside him, and said,””You’re right. If there’s anyone else in the world who can cook this dish, it has to be head chef Yuan. He’s really too strong. He managed to cook it in half a month.”
“You really made it?” Although it was Lei ti himself who suggested to come to Yuan Zhou, the expectation was also half and half. The Chinese chef King was really the chef King.
“Of course.” Guo penghao nodded happily.
“Then I can broaden my horizons.” Lei di was also happy. Firstly, it was because he was a friend, and secondly, he could eat delicious food.
Yuan Zhou didn’t know how excited they were. After he hung up the phone, he started to clean up the kitchen and then washed up and changed his clothes to prepare the dinner.
When people had expectations, they felt that time passed very slowly. This was the case for Lei ti and Guo penghao. They looked at their watches countless times and felt that time passed too slowly.
He always thought that it would be great if time could fly by on a rocket.
Fortunately, the agreed time was about to arrive. The two of them had a quick breakfast before setting off. They could no longer wait.
They lived not far from master chef Restaurant. In addition, they were in a hurry and drove fast under the premise of following the traffic rules, so they arrived in more than 20 minutes.
“Good Morning, head chef Yuan. We are here.” Guo penghao greeted him very politely.
“Hello, boss Yuan.” Lei di also greeted him.
