Chapter 1598: Eating Jiangsu cuisine in a group

“This kid, I hope his wish will come true.” Hang Tian looked at Hao Cheng’s back as he left and muttered softly.

After Hao Cheng left, hang Tian stood up from his chair.””No, I have to give old man Zhang Yan a call.”

As the saying goes,”when a son travels a thousand miles, a mother is worried.” When he came to hangtian, he was a traveler. As his master, he was also worried. Although he said that he would not take care of him, how could he really not care?

Didn’t hang Tian just call Zhang Ye?

Hao Cheng didn’t go home directly. Instead, he turned around and went to an old teahouse.

This teahouse had an ancient style and was quite famous in the local area. As soon as they entered, a receptionist in a cheongsam came over and asked.

“Hello, do you have an appointment?” The receptionist asked in a gentle voice.

“Yes, I’m the one who booked Xia Yun’s room. My surname is nie.” Hao Cheng said.

“Alright, Mr. Jin, please follow me.” The greeters invited Hao Cheng in.

As soon as they entered, they saw a noisy Hall. There was a stage in the middle, and someone was performing on it, singing a tune and tune.

The usher led Hao Cheng up the wooden stairs and straight to the room by the window. The two words “Xia Yun” were written on the pillar of the room.

“This is Xia Yun’s private room. Mr. Nie, please come in.” The greeters extended their hands and made a gesture of invitation.

“Thank you,” he said. Hao Cheng nodded and then pushed open the door of the private room.

There were already three people in the private room.

The one sitting on the left of the door was called Wang Qiang. He was of medium build, slightly bald, and wore glasses. He was the first to greet him.”Yo, Hao Cheng, you’re here.”

The other person sitting on the right side of the door was Li Liu, who was very fat, especially with a big belly. Even though he was sitting, his belly touched the edge of the table. When he heard Wang Qiang’s greeting, he nodded and said,””That’s right, we’ve been waiting for a while. “

The other one was Huang Fei, who was sitting with his back to the door. He looked younger and had the most proper appearance. He turned his head and nodded indifferently,””Chef Yi is here, please take a seat.”

“I’m sorry I’m late,” Hao Cheng was also calm. He directly excused himself and then sat on the main seat.

That’s right, these people were the ones Hao Cheng had invited to discuss his trip to Rong city.

“It’s not too late. As long as you can make it, it’s fine. Master hang won’t be easy to get past.” The fat man called Liu Li chuckled.

“My master’s challenge is indeed difficult, but it’s the same for your side.” Hao Cheng said.

“That’s right. But we’re older than him and didn’t get a special invitation. Otherwise, we could have gone there to see the world.” Wang Qiang said helplessly.

“It’s normal that there’s only one spot. ” Hao Cheng said.

“That’s true,” Liu Li nodded.

“Let’s get started. ” Huang Fei had no interest in grumbling.

“Alright, we’ll listen to little Huang then.” Hao Cheng was the first to respond.

The remaining two nodded and looked at Hao Cheng.

“Chef Hao, since you suggested it, you can start first.” Huang Fei said.

“Alright, I’ll tell you my thoughts.” “I think our plan is the same,” Hao Cheng said directly.”We’re going to try head chef Yuan’s Jiangsu cuisine.”

“But there are so many dishes in Jiangsu. If we go to each of them and eat them one by one without a plan, we will waste too much time.” Hao Cheng’s reasoning was clear.

“It’s too much of a waste to just taste a few famous Jiangsu dishes. In head chef Yuan’s hands, he should be able to achieve the legendary: The dishes are all exquisite, so our goal is to try as many as possible and try to eat all of head chef Yuan’s Jiangsu dishes. ” Hao Cheng said.

“Hao Cheng’s conclusion is very appropriate. It’s like this, I have long wanted to try head chef Yuan’s cooking, but I just didn’t have the chance.” Liu Li sighed.

“I know, right? although it’s worth it to make a trip here just to eat head chef Yuan’s dish, we didn’t do it just to eat.” “It’s for learning, for learning,”Wang Qiang seriously emphasized.

“That’s true. If we can learn a thing or two, we can also improve our own cooking skills.” Huang Fei said seriously.

“That’s why I’ve specially studied the rules of head chef Yuan’s restaurant and all kinds of strategies on the internet. ” Hao Cheng continued,”due to the long queue, we naturally have to stay closer. There are seven hotels three kilometers away from the restaurant. However, I checked online. They’ve already been booked for two months.”

“Not a single suite?” Wang Qiang found it a little hard to believe. Even when Shanghai Disneyland opened, the hotel wasn’t fully booked until two months later.

Wang Qiang opened the hotel booking app. It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Hao Cheng, but people always had a fluke mind.

He arranged the restaurants by distance. The first one was called “Mr. Liu’s homestay”. The restaurant was located on Taoxi road and was the only homestay on the road. It was only 300 meters away from Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. If the guests could get up in the morning, they could even watch boss Yuan doing his morning exercises. “I hope all the guests pay attention and don’t disturb boss Yuan’s morning exercise!”

There were only five rooms in the homestay. Wang Qiang didn’t care about the price. After all, they had some capital. The most important problem was that there were no rooms. Just as Hao Cheng said, the rooms that could be booked for two months were all full.

Wang Qiang, who didn’t believe it, clicked on them one by one. They were all full. He only found an empty room when he was 11th.

“There’s a room in this Hilton Hotel, book it quickly. ” Wang Qiang said in a hurry.

“Um, that’s what I want to say. There’s a room in the Hilton Hotel seven kilometers away from Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. I’ve already made a reservation.” Hao Cheng said.

“…” Wang Qiang silently put away his phone and didn’t want to talk.

However, Wang Qiang noticed a detail when he looked at the information. When he clicked on the hotel information, there would be a straight-line distance from the station, the airport or the scenic spots. And now, there would also be a distance from Yuan Zhou’s restaurant.

There wasn’t a second store in the country that measured the straight line distance of a store.

Once again, no one spoke. Hao Cheng continued,””We can line up every day and each person can order at least two dishes at a time. We can skip the snacks and rice and just eat the vegetables.”

“This way, we can exchange our meals. Head chef Yuan’s restaurant never said that we can’t exchange our meals, but we must finish it. This is a must.” Hao Cheng said.

“The last dish is definitely not a problem. I have never heard of anyone who can leave behind a dish made by head chef Yuan.” Wang Qiang directly nodded.

“No, there’s a person in head chef Yuan’s restaurant who has been blacklisted.” Huang Fei said.

“This is too unbelievable. Even I, a chef, can’t help but drool when I see head chef Yuan’s dishes on TV. How can anyone still have such a dish?” Obviously, Liu Li didn’t know the eccentric habit of Ling Hong’s friend and thus said in surprise.

In fact, it wasn’t that they didn’t know Yuan Zhou well. It was because they knew him well that they felt it was unbelievable. They knew Yuan Zhou’s excellent cooking skills, so they felt it was unbelievable.

“It’s said that when head chef Yuan first opened his restaurant, that person had a strange habit. That’s why he acted like that.” Huang Fei said indifferently.

“Oh, what a pity.” Liu Li shook his head.

“It’s indeed a pity. ” Wang Qiang nodded in agreement.

“Let’s get back to business. We can’t have any leftovers. Everyone, order according to your appetite. This way, we can eat at least eight dishes for a meal. In this way, we can eat all the dishes in Jiangsu within a year.” Hao Cheng said.

“Two meals a day, that’s more than 5000 dishes. We don’t have that many Jiangsu dishes.” Wang Qiang hesitated.

Although Jiangsu cuisine was one of the eight major cuisines, there weren’t as many as 5000 cuisines. More importantly, not everyone knew all the cuisines that they knew like the back of their hands and were as familiar with them as Yuan Zhou.

For example, Wang Qiang was good at su Xi cuisine, but he had only dabbled in other dishes, so he really didn’t know the details of su cuisine.

“Of course not. I think chef Hao arranged it this way because he left us some time to absorb the energy.” Huang Fei said.

“Oh, right, right, right. I didn’t think of this at the moment. We’ll have to think about it carefully after eating it.” Wang Qiang nodded.

“That’s right, then a year should be about right. ” Liu Li nodded.

“I think it’s about the same.” Huang Fei nodded in agreement.

“Alright, since everyone has agreed, why don’t we set off for Rong city as soon as possible?” Hao Cheng said.

“Of course, I’ve already explained it before I came.” Wang Qiang was the first to nod.

“No problem. I’ve checked the plane tickets. There are many flights to Chengdu, today, tomorrow, or the day after. My wife has already packed my luggage.” Liu Li patted his fat belly and said.

“I can do it anytime.” Huang Fei nodded in agreement.

“Then we’ll book a flight at ten in the morning tomorrow.” Hao Cheng said.

“I think I also need a kitchen.” Huang Fei said.

“Of course. I’ve already made an appointment with a good friend in Rong city. He will reserve a kitchen for me.” Hao Cheng said.

“Then there’s no problem,” The few of them said in unison.

“Alright, we’ll leave tomorrow.” Hao Cheng made the final decision.

Just like that, the four of them formed a group and prepared to eat the Jiangsu dishes cooked by Yuan Zhou.
