2095 Nervous and helpless

Guo Jiang was the head chef of Qing Yuan villa, which was also a famous restaurant in Gusu. This fame was also divided into internal and external, and they were known as the four young heroes in the industry.

He was also one of the four outstanding young chefs, and Wang Mingjie was the head of the four young heroes.

Outside, Qing Yuan villa was a must-go place for many internet celebrities to clock in at Gusu city.

His original idol was the master chef of Jiangsu cuisine, Wang Huai, then Wang Mingjie, and finally Yuan Zhou.

As the leader of the younger generation and even the master chefs of the older generation, many young and middle-aged chefs regarded Yuan Zhou as their idol. New Oriental offered tens of millions of Yuan Zhou to be their honorary principal, but Yuan Zhou refused.

The reason for Yuan Zhou’s refusal even became a hot topic.”I don’t have time to attend classes now. Therefore, if a student comes to register for school because of ‘Yuan Zhou’ and I can’t attend classes, I think it’ll be a kind of disappointment.”

What he meant by saying so much was that although Guo Jiang was almost 40 years old, he still admired Yuan Zhou from the bottom of his heart.

His biggest dream was to become head chef Yuan’s disciple one day … Unfortunately, Guo Jiang had only gotten fourth place in the previous disciple competition.

Back to the main topic, many chefs would come out of the kitchen before cooking and then patrol the area. It was obvious that Guo Jiang also had this habit.

Qingyuan villa’s overall structure was very much in line with people’s impression of Gusu city. There were many wooden structures, such as tables, antique shelves, screens, and even Windows that were carved with flowers.

As for the decoration of the restaurant, from the paintings hanging on the ceiling, one could vaguely see that it was imitating the style of master chef Restaurant.

Of course, the paintings here weren’t Wu Hai’s works. Besides the master chef Restaurant, no one else was so rich and inhumane.

“Move the Camellia here to the other side and clean the floor. The tablecloth on the table over there doesn’t look right. Get someone to fix it.” Guo Jiang suggested as he strolled around.

The lobby manager followed behind and immediately ordered people to make adjustments according to Guo Jiang’s words. This kind of scene was played every day, and everyone was already used to it.

“Other than cleaning well, we also have to make sure that it looks comfortable. If we look comfortable, the customers will feel comfortable too. Only by making the customers feel comfortable can they enjoy the dishes better. This is a responsibility to the customers.” Guo Jiang said.

“Ding Ling.” The bell on the door would ring when the diners came in.

Then, Guo Jiang took a look and his expression changed immediately. He then hid in the small courtyard at the back out of reflex.

“What?” When Yuan Zhou entered the restaurant, he felt that someone was looking at him. But when he entered the restaurant, there was no one. Later on, he didn’t pay much attention to it. After all, it was normal for a handsome man to be surrounded by people when he went out. Thus, he found a seat by the window.

After Yuan Zhou sat down, he flipped through the menu and ordered three famous dishes in Gusu city. He was quite calm and composed.

Guo Jiang, who was hiding in the backyard, began to mumble.

“It’s head chef Yuan, right? I think so.”

“Why did head chef Yuan come to Gusu city? Recently, Gusu city doesn’t have any large-scale cooking activities. I don’t think head chef Yuan will be able to attend. ” Of course, Guo Jiang knew that Yuan Zhou had an extremely regular work and rest schedule. If it wasn’t necessary, he would open the restaurant without any obstacles.

Guo Jiang, who was deep in thought, suddenly thought of a possibility.

“Don’t tell me …”

“Don’t tell me it’s to see if I’m qualified to receive the award?!”

The award that Guo Jiang was talking about was naturally the “Yuan Zhou’s most anticipated chef” award on the famous Yuan Shi website.

“Head chef Yuan, you can’t be here to test my cooking skills, right?”

“I had originally expected to reach head chef Yuan’s standard after three years, but now …”

“What should I do? head chef Yuan is so busy. I can’t let him down.”

Guo Jiang was like a headless fly, spinning around on the spot. He had long been out of his wits and was speaking incoherently. He had no idea what he was saying.

“Head chef Guo, what’s wrong?” The lobby manager looked at Guo Jiang and felt like he was possessed.

“Lower your voice? Guo Jiang finally regained some of his rationality after the manager’s voice prompted him.

“It’s useless to think so much now. I can only try my best to make dishes that satisfy me as usual. Just try your best. ” Guo Jiang took a deep breath and slowly encouraged himself.

After repeating this several times, Guo Jiang finally calmed down. Of course, he didn’t dare to look at Yuan Zhou anymore. Although he was very cowardly, it was still useful.

He turned around and wanted to order the manager of the main hall to serve Yuan Zhou personally. He opened his mouth but did not say anything,”since head chef Yuan did not make a big fuss and only came here in a low-key manner, he must not want to expose his identity. It would be bad if I specially ordered him to do so.”

Guo Jiang regained his fighting spirit and walked towards the kitchen. He intended to cook with all his enthusiasm. Of course, not only Yuan Zhou’s dishes, but also the dishes of other customers.

“Anyone who comes to my restaurant for a meal is my customer. My idol’s words must have a reason.” Guo Jiang encouraged himself as he walked.

The lobby manager looked inexplicably at the head chef who had become very strange. He was a little confused, but he couldn’t figure it out after thinking about it. Seeing some more guests come in, he threw it aside and went back to work.

Yuan Zhou was drinking the flower tea specially provided by the restaurant while sitting in his seat. Having come out of the temple, he felt the rare tranquility and peace even more.

“The environment here is not bad. The small shop is too small, but it’s still very comfortable.” Yuan Zhou felt quite satisfied.

There was also the faint sound of “ding ding dong Dong” of a zither, which should be arranged for someone to play the zither. However, Yuan Zhou looked around and didn’t see where it was.

It wasn’t anything important, so he didn’t see it, so he just let it be.

It didn’t take long for the dishes to arrive as the first customer to enter the restaurant. The first dish was the snowflake crab Dipper.

The snowflake crab fight was actually a snack, and it was a delicious snack that had to be eaten and made on the spot. The crab powder inside had been praised by the foodie Yuan Mei, so one could imagine that the taste must be very good.

The plate that was served had a little light blue color, like the clear sky. The snow-white part on the plate was like a white cloud, its shape was random and irregular, but it covered the entire crab shell just right.

“The control of the heat when steaming is not bad.” Yuan Zhou was quite satisfied with the appearance of the snowflake crab Dipper.

On the snow-white surface, there was also a little bit of delicate red. With Yuan Zhou’s good eyesight, he immediately saw the cooked ham that had been cut into the shape of small stars. The cutting technique was a little rough, which Yuan Zhou was not very satisfied with. However, it was already very good that such a small restaurant could have such a standard.

Upon a closer look, one would find that there was a little green under the red color, which was the shadow of the coriander powder. Red, white, green, blue, and orange crab shell, the colors were bright and eye-catching, which was pleasing to the eye.

After observing the shape and the plate presentation, Yuan Zhou picked up the chopsticks, picked up a crab and brought it to his mouth. The White egg white on it was quivering as if it would fall off at any time.

However, although it shook violently, it didn’t fall off. It could be seen that Yuan Zhou’s praise was not wrong. The control of the fire was indeed on point.
