Chapter 1041 You Are Truly The Expert At Doing A Chicken
The werewolf looked at the ladies, and awkwardly said, “If only females are recruited, I…”
“Please stop right there, stop right there!” Mag raised his hands to stop him. This was truly a werewolf.
Even if he was willing to dress as a female… Mag also wouldn’t dare to employ him. This would damage the restaurant’s reputation!
It wasn’t that he looked down on drag queens, but not everyone was as beautiful and natural in drag as s.h.i.+rley.
Their conversation made the surrounding crowd laugh. Everyone was looking at Mag with appreciation. This boss was really interesting.
Smiling, Mag said to the judges, “Since you have tasted both parties’ chicken, please say whose roast chicken is better in your heart.”
Everyone moved their gazes to the judges. Although the victor was already very obvious, the final results still needed to be announced by the judges who had tried it.
That elf stood up, and apologetically said to Mag, “The roast chicken Mr. Mag made is the tastiest roast chicken I ever had. I apologize for my earlier disrespectful remarks. Based on your excellent culinary skills, you must have taken all top spots on the Delicious Cuisine Rankings with your ability. I will come and line up early tonight so I can taste this delicious beggar’s chicken again.”
“We welcome you to visit again.” Mag nodded smilingly.
Conquering the customers with delicacies gave him the most heightened sense of accomplishment.
“You guys have done well too, Fabian and brother. But we have to speak factually, Boss Mag’s roast chicken is indeed more delicious.” Habeng pointed at Mag.
Haga gave Fabian and his brother an encouraging look before pointing his finger at Mag.
“Although Boss Mag doesn’t want to employ me as his staff member, that cannot cover the scrumptiousness of the roast chicken. You are my true love!” The werewolf gazed at Mag lovingly.
A nauseating chill rose in Mag’s heart. He had to suppress his urge to club this werewolf to death. Then, he looked at the last lady.
“Mr. Mag, I am a quick learner and hard worker. Do you want to consider me?” That lady wore a professional fake smile on her face and winked at Mag.
“I’m sorry, but the restaurant is not recruiting now.” Mag smiled helplessly. It was a mystery why all these people wanted to be service staff.
That lady covered her heart, and heart-wrenchingly said, “Even though I am sad to be rejected, I can’t make a decision that goes against my heart. Hence, I choose Mr. Mag.”
Fabian stepped forward as he clasped his hands, and said to Mag, “Mr. Mag, regarding this duel, you have won and we lost. If you have a task for us to do, we will complete it. This will be the punishment for our recklessness.”
“We only agreed to have a roast chicken duel, but we didn’t say anything about punishment.” Mag shook his head with a smile. “Furthermore, my behavior that day wasn’t very good, either. If I were you, I also would not take it lying down. I have won marginally for today’s duel, so we will consider this incident over and done with.”
Mag had a good impression of this pair of orc brothers, and he hadn’t planned to gain anything from them. After all, this duel was set up by the system, and both parties were innocent.
The duel was over and Mamy Restaurant was closed, so the crowd slowly dispersed.
However, the beggar’s chicken that wowed the crowd had already imprinted itself into everybody’s mind. Many of them had already planned to come and line up earlier that night so as to try it out. They wondered if it was as amazing as the judges had described.
The ladies who were trying out the beggar’s chicken were also full of praises for it. No dipping sauce and accompanied dishes were needed. The roast chicken itself was an incomparable delicacy.
“You have a straightforward character. I like it. Since this is the case, I, Eugene, will have you as a friend,” Eugene said with a laugh.
Fabian saw that Mag had a sincere expression, so he didn’t insist after pondering for a while. After some hesitation, gathering up his courage, he asked, “Mr. Mag, could you please give us some pointers for our roast chicken?”
Eugene stopped smiling, and stood at the side attentively.
They admitted their defeat wholeheartedly for their duel today.
They had believed that the roast chicken they made was the best in this world, but after seeing the one that Mag made, they knew their roast chicken was far from being the best.
They were just like children who had started to walk compared to Mag.
“I wouldn’t say that they are pointers, but after tasting your roast chicken, I do have some opinions that you may want to take into consideration.” Since the two of them had asked sincerely, Mag didn’t want to hide anything. After thinking for a while, he said, “First, since you want to do business in Chaos City, you cannot retain the thinking that you had when you were roasting chicken in your tribe. In order to let more customers accept your roast chicken, making it clean and good-looking is a very effective method.”
“Process the chicken in advance, and then wrap a layer of leaves outside of the roast chicken before covering it up with yellow mud?” Fabian seemed to be thinking about something. In the bazaar, most of their customers were demons and orcs. So that was the main reason, huh.
“You could say it that way.” Mag nodded. He glanced at the yellow mud they used before continuing, “It will also look nicer if you use a purer and sticky type of yellow mud. It will also be heated more evenly when it is baking in the oven.”
Fabian and Eugene nodded.
“Second, apart from cleanliness, the roast chicken’s texture is also very important. You guys have a stronger bite than humans and elves, therefore your roast chicken’s texture is a little tough and dry, and a lot of the chicken’s natural taste is lost. All these are not comfortable to humans and elves, so reducing your baking time appropriately will make the texture better and increase the quality of the roast chicken.
“Third, you can keep your unique spices, but you may have to reduce the amount that you use slightly. Then, there would be a balance between the chicken’s flavor and hot spices, and so they could merge to become a delicious taste. The separation of these two made it difficult to accept the taste.”
Mag thought for a while and nodded. “Just these three points. They are my humble opinions.”
“I have learnt a lot.” Fabian bowed deeply at Mag, his eyes full of grat.i.tude.
Mag’s words had enlightened him, and let him discover his inadequacies. Furthermore, he also knew how he should start again.
Also, Mag had imparted all these precious experiences to him unselfishly. It had made him very touched.
Eugene’s reaction was a little slower, but he also followed suit and bowed. After straightening himself, he scratched his head as he said, “You are truly the expert at doing a chicken.”
“You’re overrating me, overrating.” Mag was smiling, but he was thinking no way he would do a chicken. He simply couldn’t accept this praise…
The Fabian brothers kept their stuff and bade their farewells. They already decided to close the stall for a few days to research on how to make a more scrumptious roast chicken.
