Chapter 362 (2/2)
“If we want to guarantee the deliciousness of the steak, we can’t be careless at all about the preliminary preparations.” Li Li glanced at the chief chef and then continued to make an inspection tour, even if it was only 9:00 in the morning.
“Alright. I’m also going to make preparations.” The chief chef let out a sigh privately and continued to prepare for the steak.
He was slightly helpless. The chief chef knew why Li Li was so careful this time. Thinking of the reason, he couldn’t help but sigh more.
“We are all chefs. Why does that damn evil monster appear? How do we, old chefs, continue to make a living with him nearby?” the chief chef muttered to himself with a low voice.
That’s right. He was talking about Yuan Zhou. The reason why Li Li became so harsh was also because of Yuan Zhou.
More specifically, because of an appraisal.
On the day before yesterday, when the foreigner went to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, Li Li officially served his signature dish, the Beef Wellington.
He had expected this dish would receive plenty of praise. As a matter of fact, it was indeed so in the morning.
This gorgeous and well-known Britain cuisine indeed received people’s high praise.
Until the man in a suit, who had been the first person blacklisted by Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, brought Ling Hong to the restaurant.
“It’s much better than that damn shabby restaurant.” Once he sat down, he sighed with emotion.
“I don’t feel that way.” Only three buttons of Ling Hong’s shirt were done up, which made him appear a little uninhibited. When he heard that, he only answered lightly.
“What do you want to eat today? My treat.” The man was totally opposite of Ling Hong. His business suit was buttoned up to the top.”
“Whatever you like. You decide. Let’s just finalize the matter.” Ling Hong waved his hand, indicating that he didn’t mind what to eat.
“What’s the recommended dish today?” the man turned his head and asked the waitress standing beside them.
“Yes. We have the special meal Beef Wellington prepared by our head chef today. Would you like some?” the waitress asked softly.
“Um. Three servings, please.” The man said lightly.
“Ok. One moment, please. Three servings of Beef Wellington will be served in no time.” After a nod, the waitress took notes and repeated for confirmation.
“Han Shan, why are you still like that.” Ling Hong frowned.
There were only two of them. Han Shan ordered three servings obviously to taste a serving and then eat the other serving.
“No choice, that’s me.” The man, namely Han Shan, straightened the cuff and said earnestly.
“Forget it. Let’s get to the proper business.” Ling Hong had to let it go helplessly, even if he hated to see Han Shan’s wasteful deeds.
“Ok.” With a nod, Han Shan sat straight and then started to talk with him.
Shortly afterwards, their dishes were carried to them. As usual, Han Shan tasted one serving and ate the other serving with his own dinnerware.
The two people spoke while having meal. At the other side, however, Li Li came to them personally as an entire serving of steak was left uneaten.
Of course, Li Li only came over when they finished the meal and prepared to leave.
“Hi, sir. I’m the head chef. May I ask if you are satisfied with the dishes today?” Wearing a white chef’s uniform, Li Li stood in front of them and asked mildly.
“Very nice craftsmanship. The color is beautiful and the taste is quite strong.” Han Shan said with satisfaction.
“Not bad.” Ling Hong nevertheless said simply.
“May I bother to ask if you two will choose this restaurant to eat again?” Li Li was very confident when he asked.
Because he realized that it should be a habit for them to order one serving and taste it. It actually had nothing to do with the taste.
“Of course.” “No.”
Ling Hong and Han Shan answered with one accord while looking at each other.
“If it’s convenient for you, please do tell me what we should do to improve the dishes,” Li Li remained calm and asked as usual.
Not until he heard Ling Hong’s word did Li Li’s expression start to change. Could it be like that?
These were Ling Hong’s words, “…”
