Chapter 1991: Stop competing!
Translator: 549690339
The portions of the dishes prepared by Yuan Zhou were basically all accurately estimated. They were definitely enough for a table of people to eat. He even thought of the existence of the king of appet.i.tes and thus increased the portions a little. Strictly speaking, Yuan Zhou’s portion was even more than that of an ordinary international welcoming banquet.
A lot of people thought that the reception banquet for the Prime Minister of other countries would be extravagant and wasteful, but in fact, it wouldn ‘t. On the contrary, the amount would be very appropriate.
On the one hand, the international community was advocating the conservation of food. On the other hand, very few people really ate to their heart’s content at the welcome banquet.
As far as Yuan Zhou’s craftsmans.h.i.+p was concerned … Li Yanhua and Tang le expressed for the capital that they didn’t relax their stomachs. They were just in a better mood and thus could eat a little more.
“Fortunately, I’m quite good with chopsticks. Otherwise, I might not be able to eat much.” For the first time, Li Yanhua experienced the joy of using chopsticks.
“A better Yuan than Mr. Opello. Mr. Opello is right.” Li Yanhua thought to himself.
Li Yanhua looked discreetly at the middle-aged man beside him who did not know how to use chopsticks. He was at a disadvantage.
The middle-aged man had a standard western face. One look and one could tell that he was the main user of knives and forks. He only knew how to use chopsticks, so he was at a disadvantage. Even if he had a knife and fork, it was inconvenient.
For Chinese cuisine, it was fine to eat separately or not. However, for Western cuisines, it was usually done separately. Originally, the welcome banquet should also be in such a form. However, having personally experienced Yuan Zhou’s cooking skills, leader song specially applied for a change in the way in order to make it more harmonious and based on each person’s ability.
“You can’t compare teacher to head chef Yuan.” Tang Lei thought to himself. He had originally thought that his teacher opello was definitely not much different from Yuan Zhou and wanted to taste it carefully and then compare.
But now, Tang Lei felt that … It was better not to compete.
The main course and desserts had already been served. Although everyone was still unsatisfied, they could only bear with it and leave the last after-meal fruits.
This time, Yuan Zhou didn’t prepare many varieties. He only prepared two kinds of fruits, an Apple and a strawberry. It was very simple.
Of course, its growing environment was definitely not ordinary. The strawberry was the White fairy strawberry from before, which had already been introduced before, so there was no need to go into detail. The focus was on the Apple that was prepared this time.
“Ka Cha!”
After was.h.i.+ng his hands, Yuan Zhou picked up an Apple as big as a basin and took a big bite. Cooking was physically exhausting, so he had to eat something to replenish his energy.
“Zhao Mei, you eat too.” Yuan Zhou conveniently stuffed an equally big one to Cheng zhaomei.
“Gudong”
“Yes, master!” Cheng zhaomei nodded vigorously.”Yes, master!”
Cheng zhaomei couldn’t be blamed for being useless. He had really never seen an Apple with such a good condition. Even before Yuan Zhou had cut the Apple into pieces, the rich fruit fragrance had already overwhelmed the vegetable fragrance, let alone after it was cut open. It was simply a fragrance that could kill.
While Yuan Zhou was having a rest, the last batch of fruits finally arrived at the main hall.
“It smells so good. It must be the smell of an Apple. Why is it so fragrant?” Someone had a sharp nose. Before the waiter served the food, he could already smell the strong smell.
As they got closer, more and more people could smell it. Li Yanhua, who was still chatting with leader song, stopped and was ready to go. Even leader song did the same.
On the surface, the two of them were gentle and elegant, and it was completely impossible to tell that they were about to start s.n.a.t.c.hing food.
“Thump!”
Two fruit plates were placed on the table. One of them was white and a little dazzling. It was a strawberry with little red dots on it, as if it was a bright color in the White, very eye-catching. On the other side, the slightly yellow pulp was even more distinct against the milky white cream. The skin was dark red, and the color was pure. The fragrance came from this Apple.
Everyone’s hands reached for the Apple at the same time.
“Ka Cha!”
“This taste is a bit like that world one, but it seems to be even better. It’s really delicious. The flesh is crisp and sweet, and the juice is rich. One bite and the mouth will leave the fragrance. It’s the best.” Li Yanhua kept nodding.
Although they were apples cultivated by the system and each of them weighed 1.5 kilograms, it was impossible for every part of the Apple to be the same, especially the part close to the core. However, Yuan Zhou had the ability to cut the Apple into pieces of the same size and put them on the plate neatly like a peony flower.
For a moment, the hall was filled with the sound of ‘ka Cha, ka Cha’. If one didn’t know that there couldn’t be mice here, one would think that a group of mice was having a meeting.
“How is it, is Prime Minister li satisfied with this?” Leader song was really dedicated to his work.
Even though he didn’t eat to his heart’s content, he still managed to grab a lot of food, so he always remembered that his task was to entertain foreign guests.
“Very good. The chef is very good. The arrangement is very good, but the quant.i.ty is a little small.” Li Yanhua felt that the amount was really small.
“We’ll make improvements in the future. ” Leader song also felt that it was too little.
After that, the two of them started a new round of business boasting. However, all of this had nothing to do with Yuan Zhou. After getting the news from little ding and the others, Yuan Zhou planned to leave and go back to his restaurant. He still had to open the restaurant in the evening.
“The things on the countertop are for you. You can eat them.” Yuan Zhou specifically told ding before he left.
This was Yuan Zhou’s old habit. After all, they had been waiting for him for so long without having lunch.
“Thank you, head chef Yuan.” Little ding was all smiles and very happy.
When Yuan Zhou pa.s.sed the dishes to him previously, he had already been craving for them. If it wasn’t for his professional quality, he would have tried some of them secretly. He had never expected that Yuan Zhou would think of them.
Even Xiao Gu’s serious face relaxed a little, and a smile appeared on his face.”Food is the heaven for the people” was an unchanging saying.
After Cheng zhaomei sent Yuan Zhou back to the master chef Restaurant, she was sent back to rest by Yuan Zhou. After was.h.i.+ng up, Yuan Zhou didn’t practice his cutting skills anymore. Instead, he took out an ancient book and intended to take a rest.
He needed to relax after being so tense.
At noon, due to Yin ya’s presence, nothing major happened. However, Yin ya had only applied for leave for a few hours. Therefore, she returned to the company after there were no customers. She just texted Yuan Zhou to inform him.
“By the way, little comrade system, you need a place to cultivate these apples, right? do you have an orchard that you haven’t told me about?” Yuan Zhou had already learned to be calm.
He already had a winery and a Ranch. If the orchard fell into his hands, it would be his!
Yuan Zhou felt that in a few years, he would have his industries all over the world.
“I’ve carefully cultivated them. Don’t worry, host. The purchase channel is clean and transparent, with no middlemen.” The system was getting naughtier and naughtier.
“It means there’s no Orchard. It’s fine, I have a Manor.” Yuan Zhou was also quite open-minded.
With a farm, a Manor, and a spring, these were all the standard features of a master chef.
When Yuan Zhou came back, it was still quite early. Therefore, it took him quite a long time to study the ancient books. By the time he prepared the ingredients for dinner, he had already finished reading an ancient book at a very fast speed.
