Chapter 741 - How’s The Venue? (2/2)

“After coming to China, I found out that apart from restaurants opened by French chefs, no other restaurants can make proper steaks here.” Tom seemed filled with resentment, “Not to mention the quality of the beef used here, even the grasp on the timing when cooking the steak is too lacking. If there’s no good steak, fine. I tried some sauteed beef and some soybean beef as well. They have completely ruined the original flavor of the beef. I found that in Chinese cuisine, the original flavor of the ingredients are always being ruined and are extremely unhealthy on top of that.”

The guy with the slickback twitched his eyes. What did he mean by coming to China? Was he a foreigner? The guy with the slickback wanted to ask him if he had gone crazy. Thankfully, his reason told him to hold his tongue.

Around 11:20 am, they reached the intersection of Taoxi Road.

“We’re here, Mr. Tom,” said the guy with the slickback as he led the way.

“This place looks quite traditional,” Tom said as he scanned the area after getting out of the taxi.

“Yeah, this is a quiet place hidden amid the bustle of the city. Mr. Tom, it is lunchtime. Should we line up and eat first before proceeding with the discussion?” the guy with the slickback tactfully asked.

“There’s quite a lot of people here. Since the boss is personally cooking, I doubt he has much free time. Let us have our lunch first,” Tom frowned when he saw that the front of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was packed with people.

“Let us go now then. At this restaurant, everyone needs to personally wait in line,” the guy with the slickback was looking forward to eating the food here.

He had long wanted to try the food at Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. Unfortunately, the food here was truly not cheap. It would be too expensive if he paid for it himself. Now that he was eating with the logistics supervisor, things would be different as the meal could be claimed from the company.

The guy with the slickback earnestly planned to have a free meal. Soon, he would be able to taste the legendary delicious food of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant.

“Don’t bother. The Western restaurant next door looks nice. Let’s go eat there. We can have a cup of coffee there as well,” Tom said when he saw a Western restaurant two shops away from Yuan Zhou’s restaurant.

That was Li Li’s restaurant.

“Oh, ok.” The guy with the slickback froze before he nodded in agreement and headed towards the Western restaurant.

He walked like his entire body was drained of energy.

“The head chef today is Li Li? It’s him? The Western cuisine he cooked is still quite good. So he has actually opened a restaurant here.” In a well-practiced manner, Tom started reading the introduction of the head chef.

“Well, looks like there is still some pleasure to be obtained from this miserable work trip. It’s your lucky day today. I will let you try how authentic steak tastes like,” Tom said happily.

“Thank you, Mr. Tom,” the guy with the slickback thanked with a grateful look on his face. However, he was inwardly cursing.

“Damn you, you fake foreigner. There go my delicacies…” the guy with the slickback howled in his heart.
