Chapter 184 “Good wine and good dishes are all on the table! What’s the deal with eating the main course?
After the crystal shrimp dumplings, another plate of Empress Chicken Wings arrived. A table nearby couldn’t sit still anymore—was that a blunt knife touching the at?
It’s unfair! This is really not fair!
It’s the first ti I’ve seen a special dish at a birthday banquet!
The key point is that the food is delicious! You can tell just from the bare plates!
I’m not exaggerating when I say that they were cleaner than a dog’s lick!
The people who can attend Mr. Ouyang’s birthday banquet are certainly individuals with a certain social standing. They must have eaten many delicious dishes, but to be driven to lick the plate—just think about how delicious the food must be!
And then, you see people who can’t eat!
It’s enough to make you grit your teeth in frustration!
Snatching food!
There were about ten crystal shrimp dumplings on the plate. After everyone had one, the remaining dumplings were kept for Chef Lu’s wife and daughter.
But one wasn’t enough. These shrimp dumplings were smooth, chewy, and incredibly delicious.
I would call them the “shrimp dumpling emperor.” I’ve never had such delicious dumplings, and one plate isn’t enough to eat.
Everyone at the table couldn’t get enough. After tasting the fresh dumplings, they were still unsatisfied. Other dishes couldn’t be eaten anymore. They were just sitting there.
The table beside them could finally relax. When people are desperate, they start grabbing food!
Then, the star dish—liver paste soup—was served. There wasn’t much, just a small bowl for each person. The table next door also dread of tasting Chef Lu’s food.
The soup was delicate like tofu and had an extrely fresh taste! No wonder it was the star dish!
Since the portion wasn’t much, no one dared to gulp it down. They sipped it slowly, savoring every bite to enjoy the full flavor. It was so tender! So tender!
After everyone tasted it, all the guests were amazed.
“Tsk tsk, Old Master, this liver paste soup is really good!”
“So delicious! So tasty! The liver paste is tender, the broth is fresh—absolutely amazing!”
“No wonder it’s the star dish! It deserves the title!”
“The chef who made this liver paste soup must be at the level of a state banquet chef, right?”
“The taste of the pig liver is there but without the unpleasant odor—really delicious!”
Everyone was satisfied, and praise was showered on the chef. Mr. Ouyang was very pleased, his face glowing with pride. Chef Lu ca back.
He walked over to the table where Shen Mu Yan was sitting and took a seat between her and Lu Xiyao. He had a plate of ice crystal cake in his hand.
“Did you eat well? Are you full?” Chef Lu asked while pinching the little one’s soft cheek.
“Daddy, drink orange soda~!”
Little one brought her orange soda to Chef Lu’s lips.
Chef Lu took a sip from the straw. It was very refreshing. The table finally saw the real Chef Lu.
Younger than expected, but wow, he’s handso!
Not only handso, but his culinary skills are also top-notch!
The business elites at the table were completely convinced. How could soone be so outstanding?
But now they had no ti to complint him. Their eyes were fixed on the plate Chef Lu had brought.
“Chef Lu, what’s this?” They asked.
Just as Chef Lu was about to speak, he heard Mr. Ouyang’s loud voice calling for him.
Chef Lu stood up.
“This is Chef Lu, who made the liver paste soup!”
Mr. Ouyang proudly announced.
Chef Lu’s fa was well-earned.
The guests at the table were high-status individuals, and Chef Lu’s presence brought even more prestige to the banquet. But Chef Lu’s response was calm and composed, his smile serene.
This calm deanor earned him more respect from the guests. No wonder Chef Lu was so highly regarded—he was seen the world and was never flustered.
Chef Lu sat down, and both the wealthy lady and the little one’s eyes glead with admiration. The guests at the nearby tables couldn’t help but stare at the plate of ice crystal cake. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ noᴠelfire
They saw it was brought by Chef Lu himself. It must be a dessert after the al. They were especially eager to taste it!
But they definitely wouldn’t get a chance!
They envied those who sat at the sa table as Chef Lu–they were the lucky ones!
Chef Lu casually answered, “This is ice crystal cake, a type of soft rice dough cake. Everyone can try it.”
The table instantly perked up.
They were all energetic and eager to try it. Chef Lu was polite, but they weren’t going to be polite back. So, the ice crystal cake was passed around, and soon the plate was empty.
Each person had a piece, and they shook their heads in satisfaction. The guests at the nearby tables were envious, their eyes green with jealousy!
Chef Lu casually asked the mother and daughter, “Are you full? If not, I can make a couple more dishes.”
He knew that with so many people at the table, they wouldn’t get much to eat. Just like the ice crystal cake earlier—by the ti it went around, everyone had only one piece.
Not enough for them? He’d make more!
Chef Lu picked up a piece of the stir-fried lamb’s tripe with flowers. These fusion dishes just don’t compare to traditional dishes. They have a lot of flair but aren’t as tasty.
Of course, Chef Lu was comparing it to his own traditional dishes.
Who could beat them?
None could!
A restaurant as high-end as Wangjing No.1, a birthday banquet as grand as Mr. Ouyang’s—yet, a few of Chef Lu’s dishes were the shining stars. The dishes on the table didn’t even move much, but the ones Chef Lu made were glowing.
So, when anyone could perfect the taste of traditional dishes, there was no need for fancy fusion or molecular cuisine.
“I’ll go fry so noodles,” Chef Lu said as he couldn’t eat any more of these dishes and needed sothing to fill his stomach.
His comnt drew curious looks from the nearby tables.
Fried noodles?
They were so excited about it!
One person from the neighboring table eagerly begged Chef Lu to fry them a portion. They really wanted to eat it.
Chef Lu was a bit surprised.
You don’t want to eat the expensive sea cucumber, but you want fried noodles? He thought.
But the guest wasn’t a freeloader. He quickly took out a gold card. It was a VIP card from a large dostic supermarket chain, giving a 30% discount on everything. The gold card was handed over to Chef Lu, who initially tried to refuse.
But this card was worth quite a bit. A plate of fried noodles only cost about ten yuan, and the card could save a lot.
“I don’t need it,” Chef Lu said, but the guest insisted.
Then, Shen Mu Yan walked over and took the card.
Chef Lu’s fried noodles weren’t available just like that. This gold card was a fair exchange. The other guests understood and had the sa idea. They started offering Chef Lu various VIP cards, hoping to get so fried noodles.
But they didn’t directly offer the cards for noodles. They just wanted to be friends with Chef Lu. With new friendships ford, Chef Lu went to the kitchen to fry so noodles. It didn’t take long. A large plate of fried noodles was brought to the table, and the guests eagerly dug in, sharing the plate.
At Wangjing No.1, no one usually ate the main course. But at this birthday banquet, with all the fine food on the table, what was the deal with eating the main course?
Well, it turned out they all fought for it!
Chef Lu was a genius!
