Chapter 2200 Oh, Then It’s Okay
The official leader this time was Director Wu. He was about the same age as Master Li and had a close friendship. He also had some credit for mediating in this matter.
Although he is the leader, the official requirements have not been lowered at all. Perhaps the officials of this Qingcheng Mountain Scenic Area really care, so they put a lot of effort into selecting judges and did not invite special food critics or Chef, but a random draw through the official WeChat account. The winner will be chartered with transportation and one-day accommodation, which can be regarded as advance publicity for the scenic spot.
In this way, there are really all walks of life, there are shopkeepers who guard a small shop at home, there are also factory workers who are also indispensable, there are also housewives, white-collar workers in the company, etc. Of course, Wu Several colleagues from the office bearers also came.
"I don't know how prepared Lao Li is. I hope I can pass it." Director Wu looked at the wooden sign with an ancient charm.
It's not about anything else, he just feels uncomfortable if he can't pass his old friend. He also knows his old friend's level. It's still quite difficult to pass, but this matter is already the best result at this point.
"Why……"
Sighing secretly in his heart, but not showing it at all on his face, Director Wu directly led the people inside, and happened to bump into Master Li who was leading the people out to greet him.
"Director Wu, welcome, welcome to Longyue, I promise you won't be disappointed this time." Master Li took a few steps to greet him, with a confident smile on his face.
Although Director Wu was wondering why Master Li looked so confident, he could not allow him to be distracted now. He shook Master Li's hand and said politely: "Master Li, you're welcome. Are you ready? We have the number of people here." All here.”
Public is public, private is private, the two people have a good relationship, but in formal occasions, they are both understanding people, so they all follow the standard requirements.
"Don't worry, it's ready. There are five tables in total, with ten dishes per table, and one table for ten people. Just make your choice after eating. Please come over here." Master Li introduced while leading people towards the hall. go.
The Longyue Hotel, which is somewhat favored by the authorities, actually lives up to its reputation as a century-old restaurant. It is almost entirely made of wooden structures.
Not far from the hall, you can see a wooden partition with many flowers, birds, insects, and fish carved on it. There is a huge water tank underneath. If you get closer, you will find a few pink flowers blooming inside. The purple lotus flowers reveal the delicate stamens inside, which makes people feel comfortable just looking at them.
There is a faint scent of lotus on the tip of the nose, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. There are some red Chinese knots tied on the wooden structure next to it.
Whether large or small, they are all exquisite and the environment is quite good.
Along the way, the fifty judges at the back all knew what they were here for today. When they came in from the gate, many people were observing carefully. After all, eating and the environment are also important. Of course, it is pleasing to the eye. Many people were very satisfied with the scene.
The door is not very far from the hall, and it only takes three or four minutes to arrive. When you enter, you will see a relatively large hall with many tables of various sizes. The most eye-catching thing is the five large round tables in the middle. At this time, there are already There are some cold dishes set out.
"Come on, come on, sit down quickly, the food will start serving soon. Don't be polite, just feel free to eat with open stomach." Master Li asked everyone to sit down.
Director Wu looked around and was very satisfied. He winked at his deputy, Xiao Li, and the young man immediately came out and asked everyone to sit down.
After everyone was seated, the dishes began to arrive one after another.
The main event is here.
Although the quality of the food served was not bad, it was not to the point where it was necessary for you, which was generally acceptable. Manager Wu noticed that many people had a trace of disapproval on their faces, and felt that something was going to happen.
After looking at Master Li, who came over again and still looked very confident, I felt a little puzzled. What's the secret weapon?
Most of the dishes were served, but there were only two dishes left. There could be no accident. Manager Wu was puzzled.
At this moment, a mellow smell rushed into the tip of his nose. It was so fragrant that Director Wu almost stood up and looked in the direction of the door where the smell came from.
It took a lot of effort to stop this impulse. Director Wu had such determination, but others did not. More than one stood up and looked around.
There were quite a few of them, and now the person who was still sitting at the table was more conspicuous. Director Wu even glanced at the young man, who happened to be sitting opposite him. He looked a little familiar, but he didn't think of it.
Yu Chu saw Director Wu paying attention to him and nodded politely, but he was recording in his mind, "The fragrance can have 0.4 yuan, and it smells pretty good."
That's right, one of the people who came to try the food this time was Yu Chu. He also participated in the lottery and was chosen.
In fact, it is Yuan Zhou's credit that Yu Chu can participate in the lottery this time. Otherwise, the publicity is not in place, and he is still a little far behind Yu Chu.
Yuan Zhou also wanted Yu Chu to rate the store and increase its reputation.
I happened to know that there was such an event, and Yu Chu signed up immediately, thinking that it would be just right to put it together. He was really lucky, and he just happened to win.
This time, in order not to appear abrupt, I did not take out my usual small notebook to record. Instead, I recorded it in my mind first and went back to make up for it.
Of course, Master Li didn't know about this, and thought it would be a great favor for Yuan Zhou to give him some advice.
When the waiter brought the dishes to the table and put them on the table, everyone saw the true nature of the aroma. It was fried pork with garlic sprouts and bacon.
The green garlic sprouts are dark green in color, and even the stems have a hint of green. You can tell at a glance that the garlic sprouts are of a good variety, and the knife skills are good. The roots are clearly defined, and they are basically the same length. The flesh-colored edges have a little bit of flecks on them. The black bacon looks particularly conspicuous against the green background. The thickness of the bacon is consistent, which is very appetizing.
"Just in terms of the color matching of the dishes, these can only be regarded as 0.2 Yuan." Yu Chu silently recorded in his heart.
"When did Lao Li's dish improve so much?" Manager Wu was a little confused, but he picked it up with chopsticks and ate it without delay.
Moreover, he has the highest status at his table. He must use his chopsticks first, otherwise others will not be able to eat. These are the rules.
Put the bacon into your mouth, a dry aroma, unique to the cured meat, spreads in your mouth, and the spicy fragrance of garlic sprouts lingers. Two clicks.
Others were also very satisfied with this dish. They nodded and said it was delicious while eating. It was not at all like their expressions when eating the dish before.
Master Li saw everyone nodding while eating, and his mental arithmetic was completely put back in his stomach, "No wonder President Cheng is called the King of Sichuan Cuisine. The Sichuan cuisine is so good. It is hard to imagine a better Chef Yuan than President Cheng." What does it look like?”
As the saying goes, every mountain is as high as the next. After crossing the hill, I discovered that the person standing on the top of the mountain was Yuan Zhou.
He secretly made up his mind and wanted to thank his old friends President Cheng and Chef Yuan.
