Chapter 2468: Delicious hotpot
Translator: 549690339
He couldn’t help but carefully taste it in his mouth. The taste became more intense. It wasn’t as overbearing as the chili, but the mellow fragrance of the sesame and the pure taste of the mutton made boss Liu feel another extreme.
“Even a light hotpot is so delicious.” Boss Liu felt that he had really learned a lot today.
People still needed to come out and walk around. It was not a good way to stay behind closed doors. There were delicious things everywhere, especially in Chengdu.
Stimulated by the delectable taste, boss Liu completely forgot about the matter of trying to strike up a conversation with Jiang Changxi just now and completely immersed himself in the great cause of eating the mutton. Not to mention that he had a chance to talk to Jiang Changxi now, even if Jiang Changxi talked to him in person, boss Liu would probably wait until the mutton on his plate was finished before responding to her. Otherwise, it would be safer for him to eat the mutton into his stomach instead of asking him what to do if he wanted to eat it.
Fortunately, Jiang Changxi didn’t know what boss Liu was thinking. Otherwise, she would definitely eat a few more plates to show that half of his plate wasn’t even enough for her.
It was quite lively at Jiang Changxi’s side. Each of them had a plate of mutton, cabbage, and tofu. They were very busy. The other nine tables were also not much less occupied.
Each of them wished that the food would be cooked as soon as it was put in so that they could fish it out and eat it immediately. If it weren’t for the hairy bear watching at the side, Wu Hai might have done it and scooped all the dishes in the pot into his own bowl.
Even if they didn’t scoop all of the ingredients into their bowls, the people at this table were under the greatest pressure with the two beasts, the dark Beast and the hairy bear, around. They weren’t afraid that there wouldn’t be enough food. Since Yuan Zhou had said that they could eat as long as it was before 8:00 pm, they wouldn’t go back on their words. However, every time they blanched a lot of ingredients, only less than 10% of the ingredients could be scooped into their bowls. Anyone would feel speechless.
Among all the tables for eating hotpot, Wu Hai’s table was the most lively.
There were also some who ate hotpot in a refined manner, such as qu Yue’s table. It was her first time eating hotpot, so qu Yue chose the trendy yak hotpot that she had been longing for for a long time.
Even though she was not a local of Chaoshan, qu Yue knew that the dishes of Yuan Zhou’s master chef Restaurant were definitely the most authentic. Therefore, she had no other worries except that her stomach was too small and couldn’t hold the amount that she was satisfied with.
“We’ve already walked 10000 meters, and I’m still wearing high heels. I should have consumed more energy. I can eat more.” Qu Yue was still calculating how much she could eat before eating.
However, when he actually ate it, all other thoughts flew away, leaving only the instinct to eat. Like a robot, he blanched and stuffed it into his mouth, blanched it again, and stuffed it again. He almost did not stop.
Most of the people at qu Yue’s table were regular customers of the restaurant, but they were not very familiar with each other. The most ideal ones were acquaintances, and some were strangers to each other. Only two of them were qu Yue’s colleagues and friends, who were both beautiful and had great figures. They stood out among the crowd, looking different from ordinary people.
Logically speaking, such a combination should be a little awkward, but hot pot was indeed the best way to improve feelings. After eating a plate of beef, the familiarity of the dish would instantly double. Even if they were not familiar, they had to be familiar with each other. After eating one round, they would be familiar with each other.
Li xi was one of the five lucky ones chosen by qu Yue. As a slightly famous fas.h.i.+on designer, her income was not bad. At least, she could eat one meal a day without any pressure. However, the hot pot in the store was not something you could eat whenever you wanted.
Previously, when only the spicy bottom was served, she had brought a lot of vegetables to cook. Of course, li xi’s taste was normal. At least the spicy bottom was meat, fish, or seafood. She would not want to cook more vegetables.
Now that there was a comprehensive hotpot, li xi naturally wanted to come and eat. Although she did not win the lottery, the outcome was still satisfactory. She had hitchhiked on qu Yue’s car and could come to eat hotpot.
As a Chaoshan native, he was touched to be able to eat the authentic yak hotpot here.
Chewy meatb.a.l.l.s, different parts of the beef, as well as beef offal, gave people a different feeling. The time of scalding would also be different. As someone who had eaten it many times, li xi served as the overall commander at the entire table.
She taught the people at the same table how many seconds it took for each part to taste the best, ensuring that everyone could eat the most delicious beef. Everyone was still very grateful for li xi’s sharing, which could be seen from the fact that the dishes she cooked were rarely s.n.a.t.c.hed.
Li xi looked at the harmonious atmosphere on the table and thought to herself,””It seems that if I still can’t get the prize next time, and if everyone here can get it, I should be able to get another spot.”
Thinking of this, li xi couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. It was not in vain that she suppressed the idea of eating desperately. She contributed first. This time, she had not finished eating yet, but she had already planned for the next position.
Of course, there were quite a few people who had the same idea as li xi. However, they were all doing things secretly and would never do it openly. It wasn’t that they were embarra.s.sed, but if everyone knew and did so, their chances would definitely be reduced. Only a fool would give up the chance to eat more of Yuan Zhou’s delicacies.
Looking at the harmonious and lively scene in the restaurant, Yuan Zhou felt very happy in his heart.
“It seems that everyone is very supportive of the new hot pot dish.” Yuan Zhou said.
His hand movements didn’t change at all. He gently touched the blade of the knife with a piece of beef with clear muscles and a beautiful color, and the paper-thin slice of beef was smoothly cut into a plate prepared on the other side.
Even though Yuan Zhou had prepared many ingredients for the hotpot, he had never let anyone else do it. Whether it was the slicing of beef and mutton, the was.h.i.+ng of tripe, or the preparation of other vegetables, Yuan Zhou was busy but not in a hurry. He did everything himself.
Even if the ingredients were not cooked, they looked very beautiful and exquisite. They were even qualified to be put on display.
For the customers who had already eaten until their eyes were red, the ingredients that were served could be blanched, and they couldn’t wait to pour the entire plate into the pot. Naturally, they wouldn’t pay attention to other places.
Even if they did, they would eat first as a form of respect.
The hotpot lasted from noon to the end of dinner time, so most of the diners, after filling more than half of their stomachs, subconsciously slowed down. They wanted to eat more and eat slower so that they could digest the food they had eaten earlier and eat more. This was something everyone knew, so everyone slowed down at the same time.
As the customers slowed down, Yuan Zhou could also take a rest.
As it was a hotpot day event, his and Yin ya’s lunch was also a hotpot. Of course, it was different from the others ‘. He chose the old-fas.h.i.+oned first-grade hotpot, which was used to eat the piled up dishes first. After that, he started to add other dishes that he wanted to boil to eat.
In fact, the most convenient thing about hotpot was that no matter what kind of hotpot you ate, as long as you wanted to cook something, as long as you could find it, you could cook it and eat it. You didn’t have to care about other things. It was very free.
