Food starts from cooking

Chapter 127 I'm afraid those big shots really came for the banquet! (Seek full order!)

"I didn't expect the natural landscape of Long City to be so good!"

"Yeah, the mountains are stretching, green mountains and green waters, and there are not so many high-rise buildings in the city, and some ancient pagodas and temples can be seen from time to time. Sure enough, the cities close to Xijing have profound cultural heritage!"

The two came out of the hotel, waved for a taxi, and then drove towards Shicheng Hotel.

Shicheng Hotel is not located in the urban area, but in the west of the city, close to the National Forest Reserve, at the foot of Fengming Mountain, the sacred place of Taoism.

When they got off the car at the entrance of the hotel, the two had already noticed that there were many wedding cars parked.

"It seems that more than one family got married!"

"Yes, yes, no wonder you told us not to go wrong!"

The hotel was too big, and there were so many people getting married, Luan Yunyan could only take out her mobile phone to call Zhou You, and Zhou You asked the two of them to wait in the lobby of the hotel, and someone would come out to pick it up later.

There are not many people in the rest area of ​​the hotel lobby. After all, most of them are busy, coming in and out, and some in uniforms come to ask.

After a while, Qin Yuan ran out. He looked at his phone, then at the rest area, and then walked towards the two little girls.

"Travel around?"

"Hello Hello!"

As soon as they heard Zhou You's name, Luan Yunyan and Shen Xiuyue knew that it was the person who came to pick them up, so they quickly got up to say hello.

Only after asking this question did I realize that it was the woman's father!
The two of them thought they were friends of Zhou Youhouchu!

When they were brought into the wedding scene, the two of them looked here and there, and they hadn't seen each other before. After all, they were married, especially those who sneaked in like them. When others were happy, they were naturally happy too.

"You can walk around as you like, eat and drink whatever you want!" Qin Yuan was worried about the two girls from other places running around, so he entrusted them to his wife A Min.

"Ah, you are too kind!"

Luan Yunyan felt that Qin Yuan was a bit too polite, not only brought the two in personally, but even asked his wife to take care of them, the two felt very embarrassed.

"It's okay, you are Mr. Zhou's friends, that is my Qin Yuan's friends, if you want to go somewhere to play in Long City, or encounter anything, you can tell me!"

Luan Yunyan and Shen Xiuyue nodded their thanks repeatedly.

Until Qin Yuan left, the two looked at each other, obviously aware that something was wrong.

chef?

How could a chef be so good!
Qin Yuan's daughter got married, and she must be in her forties or almost 50 years old, but she looks quite young on the outside, and she speaks well, so her family background should be fine!

But this kind of person who can be a wandering elder actually picks them up in person, and speaks so politely and thoughtfully!
It was clearly out of Zhou You's face, and what did they hear just now?
Mr. Zhou?
The two of them can often go out to play. Naturally, their family background is quite good. Both of their parents are in business. For example, Shen Xiuyue’s family runs a factory. Not to mention making a lot of money, it’s easy to make a few million a year, while Luan Yunyan’s family The situation is similar, otherwise we wouldn't be able to play together!

"Hello Auntie!"

Qin Yuan left here, and the two of them also started talking with Wen Min.

After all, he is very curious about Zhou You, so he cites Zhou You both inside and outside.

Although Wen Min felt it too, she really didn't know Zhou You well, and she hadn't even met Zhou You's face, so she could only explain that Zhou You's skills are very good!

craft?

Luan Yunyan and Shen Xiuyue obviously didn't believe it!
Just then, the wedding began!

While the music is on...

The host has also appeared on the stage. After all, he is the host of a TV station, even if it is only a prefecture-level city TV station, but his professionalism is beyond doubt!

"Honorable guests……"

After the host's opening remarks, the male and female protagonists will also appear on the stage.

"Wow, so beautiful!"

Luan Yunyan looked at Qin Yueyue with envy on her face. After all, girls should be full of expectations for the wedding, especially since the two of them are adults. If they can meet the person they like earlier, it is not impossible to get married next year.

There is nothing to watch in the process of getting married, it is nothing more than both parties expressing their intentions, and playing small games and the like.

Shen Qiang said in a low voice: "Stop playing games, finish the dinner quickly!"

The host was taken aback, what is this request?
If you don't play games, the money will not be refunded!
The game is removed, but the hot scene is necessary. For example, Shen Qiang also gave Qin Yueyue a scene memory. From the time the two met and knew each other, along with his sincere narration, on the big screen behind him, there was also a Photos of the two!

Wen Min's eyes turned red.

However, the host quickly turned the atmosphere around, and the two sang another song together, and the parents of both men and women also came on stage to express.

it is finally over.

"You two just follow us!"

Qin Yuan greeted Luan Yunyan and Shen Xiuyue to take their seats. The two wanted to find a young man's table, but they didn't know each other, so they sat down next to Wen Min.

And this time...

At the back kitchen, Zhou You also received news of the opening of the banquet.

For a while, several pots were fired together.

"Let me tell you guys, I heard that Qin Yueyue's father personally came to cook the dishes this time. It tastes so good!"

"That's right, we ate a meal at noon and almost died from exhaustion, but now we're hungry again!"

"seriously!"

The best man has already eaten, but the bridesmaids don't know, but now they are all seated, and everyone is chatting.

In fact, from the very beginning, the groomsmen said that the banquet was delicious, but the group of bridesmaids really didn't know how much they could eat.

There are still people performing on the stage. After all, a wedding has to be lively!

Soon, the waiter began to serve cold dishes to everyone.

Those who are hungry have already started eating, after all, it's more than one o'clock.

until……

The hot dishes began to serve.

Braised fish in brown sauce, Dongpo elbow, saliva chicken, water basin lamb, steamed pork ribs, sweet and sour pork tenderloin!
Braised prawns, sixi meatballs, stuffed eggplant, pickled pork with preserved vegetables, fried stuffed three treasures, red grilled shark fin!
……

After all, Wang Yubo and the others had already eaten the dishes one by one, and when they saw the braised fish in brown sauce, they decided to do it.

They were still in the VIP room upstairs, and there were only a few of them, but Feng Lanke asked someone to add a table for the VIP room.

After taking this bite, I couldn't help shaking my head: "It's cool, after all, I ate it a month ago, and I almost forgot the taste, but I can know the deliciousness!"

You can still remember the taste, but if you don’t remember the taste, you can only try it again and again, just like Wang Yubo. In the past month, the chefs of the entire Shicheng Hotel have cooked for him.

Such as braised pork, such as mapo tofu...

Although he couldn't remember the taste of Zhou You's dishes, after eating the dishes made by his own hotel chef, he knew that this was not Zhou You's taste, and it was far from Zhou You's taste.

Now I finally eat it again, comfortable!
After all, there are not many people, there are only six people in total, and there are eighteen dishes, so naturally there is no need to fight!
"This Dongpo pork knuckle is simply amazing. The pork knuckle is soft and rotten, the meat is tender, the meat is mellow, and it is delicate and smooth to chew. Although there is a lot of fat, it is fat but not greasy, and the fat stewed from the fat meat is soaked. Lean meat, so that the mellow aroma has reached its peak!"

Liu Tang ate a large amount of meat with chopsticks, with a happy expression on his face.

Feng Lanke ate happily, and said with a smile: "As expected of Mr. Liu, we vulgar people can only say that they are delicious!"

Everyone knows that Liu Tang follows Liu Jianguo, and Liu Jianguo's father is the No. 1 chef in Canton, so he has eaten Mr. Liu's dishes, so it is conceivable that Liu Tang can praise Zhou You's cooking skills so much.

"Haha, it's Zeixiang!"

Do as the Romans do, Liu Tang doesn't show off, he is from Pengcheng after all, he eats relatively fine food, but after coming to Long City for so long, he gradually began to fall in love with pasta, and his food is coarser than before.

For example, he had eaten the Dongpo elbow before, and it tasted very good, but compared with Zhou You's, it was really far behind, especially if he was lucky enough to eat Mr. Liu's food before, it would not be like this It can only be said that eating habits have been slowly changed.

"I still like our mutton!"

Basin lamb!

Now it is sold in the store, mostly in bowls, but this is a banquet after all, so it is a big pot!

The local sheep in the grassland of Longshi are used!
The soup is white, and you can see the mutton slices and vermicelli inside. In addition, chopped green onions and coriander leaves, oily spicy peppers, and essence sugared garlic are also prepared on the plate!
Feng XX served himself a bowl of mutton. The mutton soup scooped up by the spoon had a strong aroma of mutton. The vermicelli was also made of local potato flour, which was crystal clear without any knots!
Put chopped green onion and coriander on it, stir a few times quickly, let the hot mutton soup wrap the scent of chopped green onion and coriander, and then take a sip.

"Oh my god, this taste. There is a mutton steamed bun restaurant on the Jinqiao side of the east of the city. It opens before dawn in winter. If you go after seven o'clock, you have to wait for a seat. Everyone is running to drink other people's soup, so it is often eaten at noon. It closed at two or three o'clock in the afternoon because the ingredients were sold out!"

"And if Zhou You opens a store, I'm afraid it won't be until two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and it will probably close at ten o'clock in the morning!"

what?
People of Feng XX's status take it home to eat?

Don't be ridiculous, people like mutton are rushing to the store to drink soup, and you take it back, the taste has changed a long time ago, okay?

"Come here, try our local specialty, water basin mutton!"

Wen Min chatted with the two little girls, and he knew how the two met Zhou You.

Since they are tourists from other places, as locals, I naturally want them to experience it!

Although Long City is famous for its mutton steamed buns, in fact, mutton steamed buns and water basin mutton are always the same. To put it bluntly, if you make mutton steamed buns well, water basin mutton will naturally do well!

"Auntie, I don't like mutton very much!"

Luan Yunyan waved his hands quickly.

Wen Min laughed and said, "I don't like it, but it doesn't smell at all. Try it!"

The little bowl was already placed in front of him, Luan Yunyan sniffed it, huh?
Really no smell?
Luan Yunyan and Shen Xiuyue are both from the southwestern coast, where most of the food they eat is seafood, and they eat less meat like beef and sheep, especially mutton.

Earlier, there were mutton steamed bun restaurants in Jinzhou City, but almost no one could keep them open, and most of them closed within a month after opening.

For the rest, there are some roasted whole lamb restaurants and the like, but they are not large in scale. The two of them have eaten there before.

The key is the smell, Shen Xiuyue can still eat a little bit, but when Luan Yunyan smells that smell, she can't take a bite.

"Well, it's delicious, why is this meat so rotten, and the taste is so mellow, it's the first time I've eaten such delicious mutton!"

Shen Xiuyue has already started to eat, a mouthful of meat, the mouth and teeth are fragrant, the mutton is fat and thin, the fat is not greasy, the lean meat is not dry, and it is very badly cooked.

The most important thing is that there is no smell of mutton at all!
"Aunt Wen, is this really mutton? Why doesn't it have any smell at all!"

Wen Min was delighted, and said with a smile: "It's indeed mutton. As for why it doesn't have a smell, it's our local sheep in Long City. The local sheep in Long City has a relatively small smell. Second, it should be cooked by the chef. Problem!"

She thought of her husband's great admiration for that master Zhou, and she was a little greedy for Shen Xiuyue, a foreign tourist, so she quickly filled a bowl for herself.

then……

After taking a sip of the soup, the warmth flowed into the throat, and the chill that I felt a little outside before disappeared in an instant!
Darling, I'm not lying!

"Yunyan, eat quickly, it really doesn't smell bad!"

Shen Xiuyue has already started drinking soup, her big eyes are narrowed, like a cat!
Seeing that Shen Xiuyue's food was so delicious, she took a bite of the meat, and it really didn't smell like mutton, and she ate vermicelli in this bite, which was soft and elastic, combined with the smell of mutton, it was a stroke of magic!
You know, she had eaten the so-called mutton steamed buns from an old store in Xijing before, and she needed to break them with her hands, which was very troublesome, and the taste of the meat and soup was just mediocre. It's vermicelli, not this kind of thick vermicelli!
I thought the vermicelli was too thick, so it should have no taste!
But when the vermicelli is sandwiched, it is crystal clear, and you can even see the chopsticks on the other side from one side, and the mutton soup attached to the vermicelli is very enjoyable!
God, it turns out that the real water basin mutton tastes so good!
She suddenly thought of something and asked, "Aunt Wen, Zhou You did this?"

Wen Min is already full of food now, before her husband kept saying that Master Zhou is good at cooking, Master Zhou is good at cooking, and the leftovers taste really good!
but……

She never expected that Zhou You's craftsmanship has reached such a level.

She doesn't know how to describe it, but...

If Zhou You opened a store to sell this water basin mutton, she would be able to get up every morning to eat it in the cold winter months, even if she had to wait in line!
"Yeah, it's Zhou You, and the dishes that are being served one after another should all be made by Zhou You!"

The serving time of the mutton in this water basin is different from that of the inside. The outside is served earlier. After all, it is not fried in a wok, but cooked in a large iron bucket and then reconstituted.

Therefore, the first dish on the outside is the water basin mutton. It is probably to drive out the cold. When I eat with southerners, I always like to drink soup first!
So what everyone ate at the beginning was this water basin mutton!
And just this bowl of mutton has already made everyone present hooked.

"I'll go, in the morning, this thing made me drink up!"

Shen Qiang drank the soup and ate the mutton, almost buried his head in the bowl!
Qin Yueyue was even more extreme than him. As someone who had to eat mutton puffed buns once a week, Qin Yueyue thought that the restaurant where she was used to since she was a child was already the ceiling for mutton puffed buns!

but……

She never expected that someone would be able to pierce the ceiling!

God, if I knew that Zhou You's cooking was so delicious, I should have gone to dinner with my dad!
A loss, a big loss!

Qin Yueyue turned grief and anger into appetite, one bowl after another.

Seeing this, Shen Qiang quickly stopped him!
"What are you doing? There's more to this!"

Qin Yueyue thought that Shen Qiang was going to grab food.

Shen Qiang was helpless, and said: "Don't drink so much soup, there will be other dishes later, what should I do if I can't eat anymore?"

As soon as these words came out, Qin Yueyue suddenly realized, yes, I heard from my father that there must be more than a dozen hot dishes!

but……

This is really delicious, especially when I see my girlfriends, immersed in cooking...

"Wow, where does this chef work, I will often go to drink soup in the future!"

"Yeah, how did you do it? It doesn't smell like a smell at all!"

"I think it should leave a little smell, but this smell is really amazing!"

Endure it!

Let you drink it. After a while, let me see how you eat the follow-up delicious dishes!

Finally, other dishes began to be served one after another.

Braised prawns, sixi meatballs, stuffed eggplant, pickled pork with preserved vegetables, fried stuffed three treasures, red grilled shark fin!
Lychee meat, husband and wife lung slices, anchovy shrimp, pocket tofu, ants climbing a tree, braised bamboo shoots in oil!
……

Lychee meat!
A representative of Hokkien cuisine, a common dish on the dining table in Jinzhou!
When seeing this dish, Luan Yunyan and Shen Xiuyue were very excited, as if they were in a foreign country and saw Jincheng beef noodles, Shaxian snacks, and Guicheng rice noodles!
It got its name because it looks like a lychee!
There is not much meat in the plate, there are a few leaves and shredded carrots, which are made into branches, and the pieces of red meat are piled up together, making the whole dish look like a plant Picked lychees!

The color is bright, the juice is sticky, and the appetite will be greatly increased at a glance!

"Try it!"

"Try it!"

The two looked at each other, and they haven't tasted the other dishes yet, after all, they are familiar with this dish.

A piece was caught, and the juice was so viscous that it was almost silky!
Luan Yunyan ate it in one gulp, and the first thing he felt was the sourness and sweetness of the juice!
This kind of sweet and sour is not too sweet, it feels just right, which can stimulate people's taste buds and make people's mouth water.

"It's lemon juice!"

"That's right, the taste of rice vinegar should be replaced by lemon juice. It complements the lychee meat. It's so delicious!"

"Well, the sweet and sour taste is already in the taste, but the meat itself is still a little crispy, but it's a bit crispy, and it's even better than the ones made by Jinzhou Seafood Restaurant!"

"Tsk tsk, a person who travels around Long City can cook our Jinzhou dishes so delicious!"

Luan Yunyan and Shen Xiuyue were shocked, but the speed of eating was not slow at all!
Of course, it's not just the two of them, but other people at the same table have different goals, Dongpo elbow, braised fish, sweet and sour pork ribs, stuffed eggplant, Sixi meatballs...

All the dishes that were already on the table began to be eaten.

And the complexion of everyone who ate it changed.

Especially Shen Huantao!

Today is his son's marriage, so he is naturally very happy, especially today there are a few distinguished guests. Although this is not publicized, but after all, we have met and greeted each other, and they have a face!
But this matter is also in the heart, after all, I don't know why people came here.

As for what his in-law Qin Yuan said, he is completely farting!
but……

When he drank water basin mutton, when he ate Dongpo elbow, when he saw relatives at the same table pick up vegetables at a faster speed, and even started to have nothing to eat, he finally began to believe it.

What Qin Yuan said may be true!

Those big shots in the VIP hall are probably really here for the feast!

　A new week has begun, ask for a monthly pass, ask for recommendations, ask for full reservations, well, a new week begins, as usual, please ask for a small reward, break zero eggs, thank you everyone!
