Chapter 188: Steamed Assorted Vegetable Buns
On the webpage in front of him were contents about his restaurant, from forums, webpages, Wechat moments and microblogs. Yuan Zhou read each of them one by one with an earnest manner.
Yuan Zhou liked Meng Meng’s recommendation more.
[This is the Lotus Root Starch from Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. Don’t you guys find it crystal clear and translucent? Besides, it also has a very nice taste. It is definitely the authentic Lotus Root Starch produced in Sanjia Village and has effects on maintaining beauty and staying youthful. I have decided to order one bowl of this dish every two days from now on so that I can live off my face.]
The pictures under the comment were naturally group photos of Meng Meng herself and the dish Lotus Root Starch, in various poses.
The replies following that were also compliments. For example, [Meng Meng, you originally lived off your cute face.]
Yuan Zhou turned over another two pages filled with the comments and basically, it was all about compliments like these.
“These are sure loyal, anyhow,” Yuan Zhou said with a serious and seemingly just manner.
On this side, Yuan Zhou was reading the comments quite earnestly. He believed the complimentary comments could help him get more inspiration and cook better.
On the other side, Lee Yanyi was looking for tasty dishes everywhere as he wanted a change.
Although he loved eating and was a reserved person, he looked for dishes casually. He liked to go with the flow and didn’t appear to be incisive like when he commented on the dishes.
“Yan Jia, do you have any recommendation?” Having failed in finding an attractive restaurant, he decided to directly ask a person. That was his assistant.
“Professor, what about Century? You said it was nice last time,” On Yan Jia’s mild face revealed a habitual smile.
“Change another one,” Lee Yanyi refused straightforwardly.
“Then let’s go to Yi Mu Restaurant in Zhonghe Street. What do you think?” Yan Jia was already used to the personality of his professor and thus recommended again.
“Choose a restaurant that I haven’t been to.” Lee Yanyi frowned discontentedly, with some vertical wrinkles between the eyebrows.
“There was a really nice restaurant recently, which the teacher Wang Shuyuan has been to once and recommended to you. Do you want to go for a try?” Yan Jia looked at the notebook in his phone and recommended Yuan Zhou’s restaurant first.
“If Wang Shuyuan has been there, we can go and have a taste,” Lee Yanyi considered for 3 seconds and then agreed readily.
“Ok, professor. Do you need me to arrange the visit?” Yan Jia asked meticulously.
He knew well of his professor’s habits. The professor didn’t like to be accompanied when he went to such small restaurants.
“No need. I’m gonna hang up.” After that, Lee Yanyi hung off the phone before Yan Jia had time to say good-bye.
At the other end of the phone, Yan Jia put down his phone naturally. He appeared to be accustomed to his professor’s style. Then he added a schedule in the notebook in his phone.
He checked the notebook roughly, which was all about the schedules of Lee Yanyi. He crossed out those matters that had been completed and left the unfinished schedules in red font, appearing extraordinarily conspicuous.
“It seems I truly ought to go and have a look,” Lee Yanyi knew well of the internet. He especially liked to surf through gourmet websites and forums.
He easily caught sight of the post that Sun Ming had released previously. Currently, the post was still marked as a pinned post and was set to the very top of the page. One could imagine how popular it was among the visitors.
Wang Shuyuan’s recommendation was something that could be relied on. Plus with the seemingly wonderful reputation, he felt it indeed deserved a try.
On the other side, Yuan Zhou was very satisfied with the compliments and thus decided to serve another new dish in the morning.
As the fourth one of the Eight Unique of the Qinhuai Snacks, Duck Oil Sesame Seed Cake had been irresistible to the customers. As another of the unique dishes, the Steamed Assorted Vegetable Buns were no worse than the fourth one.
“There are so many meat dishes. So this time I made a vegetable dish.” While stroking the forehead with one hand, Yuan Zhou looked to be quite considerate towards his customers based on his expressions.
After considering for quite a while, Yuan Zhou felt this idea made sense; therefore he decided to make a different dish.
After that, he received the reward of steamed buns. However, there was a surprise waiting for Yuan Zhou.
