Chapter 657 Ants Climb the Tree
"Boss Yuan, what is your specialty?" Xing Min asked seriously.
Li Yan, who was on the side, just sneered, "They say they are good at everything on the menu."
Even the other diners who heard Xing Min's question smiled and waited for Yuan Zhou to say that they were all good at this.
"Boss Yuan is so narcissistic, he must be good at everything." Wu Hai said with determination, stroking his mustache.
"I think so too, and isn't this a matter of course? There is nothing that is not delicious." Manman nodded in agreement.
"Indeed, I haven't found any of Boss Yuan's dishes to be delicious after eating here. Even the cheapest honey Tremella has a unique taste and a refreshing texture." Another diner nodded and drank.
"This is the first time I've seen someone ask Boss Yuan what he's good at. It's quite interesting." Ling Hong said with interest.
"That's true. I feel like Boss Yuan is good at everything and everything tastes delicious." Naturally, it was the little fangirl Tang Qian who said this.
Wu Hai continued to summarize: "His specialty is the next dish."
As soon as Li Yan heard these words, he glanced sideways at Xing Min, as if he was saying, "See, everyone agrees with me. Your original theory is outdated."
As a mortal enemy, Li Yanyi would not miss any opportunity to attack Xing Min.
However, Xing Min was calm and looked at Yuan Zhou steadily, waiting for his answer.
Yuanzhou, on the other hand, was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Ants climbing trees, the specialty dish is ants climbing trees."
Yuan Zhou's voice was still calm, but his tone was still serious.
"Then let's have an ant climbing a tree and a piece of white rice, that's it." Xing Min nodded with satisfaction and then ordered directly.
Li Yan could clearly feel the pride on Xing Min's face without looking back, but he didn't care about it now. Instead, he looked at Yuan Zhou in surprise.
Even the diners eating nearby looked at Yuan Zhou with wide eyes, expressions on their faces showing surprise.
Can you not be surprised? The dish Ants Climbing a Tree has been around for several months, but I have never heard of it being Yuan Zhou's specialty.
"So Boss Yuan has a specialty dish?" Tang Qian couldn't help but say.
"What makes ants on trees a specialty?" Li Yanyi asked immediately.
"Yes, this ant is really good at climbing trees, but when did it become a specialty?" Wu Hai turned his head in surprise and looked at the large menu on the wall behind him, wanting to take a closer look at whether there were any changes.
"Damn, I'm really surprised." Ling Hong couldn't help but swear.
Manman didn't say anything, but looked Yuan Zhou up and down.
"It's possible that we haven't asked before. Maybe this dish has always been Boss Yuan's specialty." Tang Qian thought for a long time and then said.
It seems so. Now the diners understood, because they were all delicious, and no one had ever asked Yuan Zhou this question.
"It's no surprise that specialty dishes are an essential skill for a chef." Xing Min said proudly and naturally.
"When a blind cat encounters a dead mouse, it can also give him a sense of superiority." Li Yanyi immediately said with disdain.
"It's better than some people who have been eating for months but don't know the chef's specialty." Xing Min would not show weakness and immediately retorted.
"Haha, that's because you don't understand and have too little experience." Li Yanyi would not admit defeat.
"I dare say that the specialty dishes are at least 20% more delicious than other dishes. Only then can they be called specialty dishes." Xing Min said with certainty.
"If you can make a dish that's 20% more delicious than this, I'll give you a thumbs up." Li Yanyi's voice was full of sarcasm.
That's not all, Li Yanyi then added, "Even if you find such a person, I will give you a word of approval."
"No problem, I'll tell you after I eat it." Xing Min agreed.
Li Yan looked at Xing Min with pity in his eyes, clearly saying, "Stupid mortal."
As for Yuan Zhou, who answered the question, he did not stay longer and returned to the kitchen.
Cooking seriously.
Therefore, Yuan Zhou did not answer any of those questions.
However, now the dish of ants climbing a tree is very popular.
"Let's have a dish that Boss Yuan says is his specialty, and it will make ants crawl on the tree." Whether they are diners who have just been in the store or those who have just come in, they will almost always order this dish.
The popularity that used to be very average was suddenly broken by the word "specialty".
But more people asked Yuan Zhou why.
However, Yuanzhou was still cooking seriously and didn't think about anything.
It really doesn't take long for ants to climb up a tree, so Yuan Zhou was done in just a short while.
"Serve the dishes." Yuan Zhou put down the dishes and said to Mu Xiaoyun at the side.
"Okay, boss." Mu Xiaoyun nodded immediately and walked over.
Yuan Zhou stood in the kitchen, watching the dishes being served, and listening to the diners discussing the dish Ants Climbing a Tree. He suddenly remembered the reason why this dish became a specialty.
More than a year ago, Yuan Zhou was still working in the kitchen of that three-star hotel. Due to various reasons, even though he was a college student, he could only do odd jobs in the kitchen.
Working as a handyman means doing anything. When you are busy, you have the opportunity to touch the spatula, stir-fry something, etc. Of course, this dish is for the employees to eat themselves, commonly known as work meals.
He spent more time in the kitchen washing vegetables, picking vegetables, doing hygiene, etc. At that time, Yuan Zhou had no system and no one thought he had a talent for cooking.
One day at noon, after cleaning up alone, he found that the staff meal had been eaten, so Yuanzhou went back to the kitchen and cooked a simple dish for himself.
That dish is stir-fried vermicelli with minced meat, that is, ants climbing a tree. These two ingredients are common in the kitchen, and there are many of them, so you can use a little.
Of course, the most important thing is that this dish can be used as both a vegetable and a staple food, which is very convenient.
"It looks like the food I cooked is also good." Yuan Zhou looked at the minced meat vermicelli on the plate with satisfaction.
"Suck, suck, suck." Yuan Zhou picked up the chopsticks and took two quick bites.
"Xiao Yuan is eating." At this time, a person walked in. This was the head chef of the back kitchen, that is, a chef with a senior chef certificate.
"Yes, hello, chef." Yuan Zhou was a little nervous, put down his chopsticks and started to say hello.
"It's ants climbing the tree, it's pretty good." The head chef stepped forward, glanced at the plate, picked up a chopstick and ate it casually, and then said.
"Thank you, chef." Yuan Zhou thanked him seriously.
"Hurry up and finish your meal and prepare the ingredients." The chef didn't say much, but said as he walked towards the lobby.
"Okay." Yuan Zhou nodded quickly.
"This is the first dish I've been praised for." Yuan Zhou showed a small smile and sighed.
Even if it is, the Technician Cheng who wants to study with Yuan Zhou now far exceeds that of the head chef. It is not even clear whether the sentence "pretty good" was said casually by the head chef or if it is really good.
But Yuan Zhou still remembers that his specialty must be ants climbing trees.
