In 1918, Being a Chef Was Just a Hobby
Chaos City is a complex city, a city like no other.
People from all races, constrained and guided by a unique set of rules, built this city of freedom and equality together.
The Ross Empire is still consolidating the centralized feudal dynasty. The Forest of Winds has discarded its free soul and become more and more like humans. Goblins dig deep caves to prepare for the next race war. Orc tribes still maintain the tradition of nomadic hunting. , the demons are constantly fighting for the territory, and the dragon soars in the sky, but there is the strictest racial suppression.
However, the chaotic city keeps opening up and innovating. In the past hundred years, it has changed from a wasteland and a prison for war criminals to a thriving city like it is now.
Not long after dawn, Milo and Garland got up, carrying small bags, walking on the streets of the chaotic city on foot, watching the breakfast shops opening one after another on the side of the road, amid the rising heat, what they saw were the faces of those early risers. With a smile on his face.
This is a lively city.
Such anger is not common in Luodu.
Those who live at the bottom, no matter how hard they try to live, can't see any changes, they can't see the expectation and enthusiasm for life on their faces.
In Chaos City, you can see smiles on people's faces everywhere.
Even if they only buy sweet shortbread for a copper coin on the roadside, they can feel extraordinarily delicious.
Happiness is probably the most charming and attractive aspect of this city.
"I used to think that this city didn't even have good food, and the people living here must be unhappy, but now it seems that this kind of thinking is too narrow." Milo smiled a little ashamedly.
"Yeah, if I hadn't come here in person, I would never have thought that this city would have such a strong sense of happiness." Garland nodded in agreement, "And now there is a restaurant in this city that makes foodies all over the world envy and yearn for .”
"Now I'm more curious about what the breakfast at Mami Restaurant will be like." Milo said with a smile. Today may be a very memorable day in his career. He will interview a restaurant owner for the first time. s story.
In the past, he used to make up 10,000-word dirty stories for those bosses by himself.
Milo and the others came early enough, but they didn't expect that there were already scattered customers queuing up at the entrance of Mamy's restaurant.
In addition, many cleaners are gathering at the entrance of the restaurant, and they seem to be waiting for food.
"Will the price of breakfast at Mamy Restaurant be lowered?" Milo asked curiously to the guests standing in front.
"The prices on the menu will not change. Boss Mai has been preparing breakfast for the cleaners for a while, so that they can have a hot breakfast after working for a few hours." The guest seemed to see that What Milo was thinking, he explained with a smile.
"I see. Boss Mai is really a good man." Milo nodded thoughtfully.
With the high menu price of Mamy Restaurant, preparing breakfast for so many cleaners every day is not a small expense, and what is even more difficult is that the breakfast distribution must be done before the opening of the business every day, which will undoubtedly squeeze them Original rest time.
Not long after, the door of the restaurant opened, and a female employee came out with a large iron bucket in one hand, and began to distribute porridge with preserved egg and lean meat to the cleaners in an orderly manner.
The hot air carried the aroma of preserved egg and lean meat porridge, spreading in all directions.
"It smells so good." Milo's throat rolled, looking at the cleaners carrying a large bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge, he muttered, "Suddenly want to be a cleaner."
"It's just you, maybe no one wants you." Garland said with a sideways glance at him.
For breakfast, Milo ordered a bowl of preserved egg and lean pork porridge, and followed the advice of the guests at the same table, and ordered a set meal of soybean milk and fried dough sticks.
Preserved egg and lean meat porridge refreshed his upper limit of imagination for porridge. I don’t know what kind of animal’s preserved egg, paired with tender and smooth lean meat, is so delicious. After eating a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge, I feel my whole body becomes warm up.
The combination of fried dough sticks and soy milk subverted all his imagination about breakfast.
The crispy fritters, with a mouthful of crispy taste, is better than all fried snacks, with a hint of sweetness, the more you chew, the more delicious it is.
Take another sip of sweet and delicious soy milk, the taste is much more delicate and smooth than milk, after swallowing, the mouth is still full of fragrance.
Of course, this is not the ultimate way to eat.
Pick up the fried dough sticks cut into short strips with chopsticks and immerse them in soy milk. When the fried dough sticks become slightly soft, pick them up immediately and take a bite.
The fried dough sticks are soft with a hint of tenacity, stained with the sweetness of soy milk, both the texture and the layering of taste have increased countless times, and it has become a brand new delicacy.
"Boss Mai is really a genius to be able to come up with such a wonderful combination." After drinking the last drop of soy milk in the bowl, Milo put down his chopsticks and couldn't help admiring.
"I agree with this very much." Garland also put down the bowl with some unfinished business.
"No wonder Randy and the others don't want to leave here. It's not because they don't have pursuits and ideals, but because they don't want to leave here. This is heaven." Milo looked in the direction of the kitchen, and Mag seemed to be exuding a Mysterious brilliance.
...
After the business ended in the morning, Milo and Garland were received by Mag.
"Is this an interview?" Mag poured a cup of brewed tea for Milo and Garland each, and said with a smile.
"Speaking of which, this is the first time we have interviewed a chef. If you have read our magazine, you should know that our approach to food has always been somewhat serious and critical." Garland also said with a smile .
"In that case, I should be honored."
"No, it's our honor to meet Boss Mai to talk about the story behind the food. Today's breakfast, we were once again impressed by your superb cooking skills and novel and special ideas." Garland said quickly, he didn't want to give Meg left a haughty impression.
Mag looked at Garland and smiled and said, "Before the interview starts, may I take the liberty to ask about the influence of your Whole Foods magazine? For example, the number of subscribers to the new issue?"
Garland was a little surprised by Mag's question, but he quickly smiled and said, "Shi Quan Shi Mei is a leader in the food magazine industry. After decades of development, it has become one of the most influential food magazines on the Norland continent. , the number of new publications issued every month is tens of thousands of copies, and the radiation affects hundreds of thousands of people, which is about 10 million."
"Even Princess Vanessa of the Ross Empire is a loyal reader of our magazine and wrote me a letter." Milo added with a smile.
"She seems to read all food magazines, and occasionally writes letters to foodies who she thinks may have livelihood problems, encouraging them to persevere." Mag glanced at Milo and said lightly.
Milo: "..."
Garland's eyes drifted a little, and he tried hard not to laugh.
This was said by Vanessa herself. She has often done this kind of thing over the years, and occasionally she will give some money to these gourmets so that they can survive some difficult days.
In this world where entertainment methods are scarce and information circulation is inconvenient, a gourmet magazine can achieve this level, which is considered very good.
McGonagall knew that Garland’s so-called radiation million must be a little watery, but the sales of tens of thousands of magazines are real, which means that as long as he accepts an interview, this interview will appear in the new issue of those readers who bought the magazine.
"What do you want to ask?" Mag poured himself a cup of tea, leaned back on the back of the chair, and sat comfortably.
"Then can we start talking about Mr. McGonagall's cooking experience? Mr. McGonagall has such amazing cooking skills at such a young age, and continues to create so many delicacies. Start learning cooking?" Garland asked with a smile.
"No." Mag shook his head and said indifferently: "Being a chef is just out of interest. I have never learned cooking from anyone, and I don't have any family background of chefs. I felt that I should improve my skills a few months ago. Let’s take a look at the level of food in this world, so we have this restaurant.”
Garland:? ? ?
Milo:? ? ?
The two looked at Mag with a somewhat inexplicable meaning.
It's ok, brother with big breasts, people don't know how to respond to this coercive pretending.
I thought that Boss Mai seemed easy to get along with, and the interview should be conducted in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. Unexpectedly, after sitting down, Boss Mai would have a showdown.
Mag glanced at the expressions of the two, feeling a little puzzled in his heart. Could it be that what he said was too simple?
After all, Garland is a professional editor-in-chief, and he soon realized that Mag's way of speaking would be more likely to spark the topic, so he followed his words and continued: "What do you mean by saying that you want to improve the level of food in this world? "
"Let more people eat real food instead of those ordinary and ordinary food, make those fake food invisible, improve people's ability to appreciate food, and even let every ordinary person learn a Two delicacies that I can cook myself." Mag smiled slightly, "This is my vision, and it is also what I call a higher level of cuisine."
Milo opened his mouth slightly, looking at Mag with surprise and admiration in his eyes, which is what he thought in his heart.
"This is really a great and beautiful vision." Garland praised sincerely. As a gourmet person, he also looks forward to seeing such a grand sight.
“You create so many strange and delicious foods, where do you get your inspiration from? You know that many of these foods have never been heard of, and we can’t even imagine that they can be cooked in such a way, such as encased in mud shells. Beggar chicken, such as tofu nao made from soybeans."
Mag smiled and said: "I can only be regarded as a trickster standing on the shoulders of wise ancestors, and life is the source of all inspiration. What you don't know doesn't exist, it's just yours." Knowledge is limited."
