Chapter 143 The surprise at the birthday banquet, who is the cook?
Chapter 143: Surprise at birthday banquet, who is the cook?
Experts will know if there is one as soon as they take action.
Although Li Xinmin has no knowledge of cooking,
But when you see this smooth knife skills, you know that it cannot be mastered in a short time.
A big stone fell to the ground in my heart.
At least,
I have known Xu Yi for such a long time,
The other party doesn't seem like the kind of person who likes to boast!
In this way,
Today’s birthday banquet is considered a success!
In addition to Li Xinmin,
The other helpers in the kitchen originally saw that today's head chef had been replaced by a young boy in his early twenties.
There is still some reluctance in my heart.
However,
After seeing this hand-made knife work, many people gave up their contempt! ——
It's noon,
The guests in the courtyard have almost arrived,
Of course,
Because this birthday banquet was held in the courtyard where Mr. Li lived, ordinary people could only leave gifts but not food at all.
And the guests who can be invited to stay here,
Almost all of them are Mr. Li's relatives and friends, old comrades, old subordinates and the like.
It’s just time for dinner,
There is an attractive aroma wafting from the backyard kitchen,
It also made many people widen their eyes and couldn't help but start talking.
"Just by smelling this smell...the cook here today is pretty good!"
"That's right,"
“I heard that the old man’s son-in-law specially invited a chef with authentic Huaiyang cuisine to celebrate the old man’s birthday!”
"We are lucky enough to be blessed with a table of authentic Huaiyang cuisine today!"
"Who says it's not,"
"I've long been tired of the food in the Eighth Building, so I can change my taste today!"
"Haha, you guys..."
Mr. Zhao, who heard everyone talking, also smiled happily,
After all, as the host,
The meal from the chef I invited was recognized by everyone before it was even served,
He is also proud of it.
Soon,
The meals were also delivered to the table one by one by the chefs,
And at this moment,
Looking at the exquisitely shaped dishes in front of me, like works of art,
Many people's eyes lit up.
Originally,
When they smelled the smell coming from the kitchen, their hearts were filled with anticipation.
And now,
When I saw the appearance of the dishes, I immediately felt itchy.
I can’t wait to use my chopsticks right away!
"Okay,"
"It's almost time, let's start eating,"
Noticing everyone's reaction,
Mr. Zhao also laughed and moved his chopsticks first.
Seeing that today's birthday boy had spoken, everyone couldn't wait and started to greet the food on the table.
After a while,
There was another burst of exclamations.
"This Wensi tofu is no worse than what I had in Jiangsu and Zhejiang."
"And your knife skills are amazing!"
"Tofu silk hair is even thinner and can even pass through the eye of a needle!"
"And these three sets of ducks,"
"I thought no one in these four-nine cities could make the essence of this dish. Unexpectedly, unexpectedly..."
"There are also crab meat and lion's head, squirrel mandarin fish, crystal meat, eight-treasure gourd duck, and pine nut corn. Not only are the knife skills, cooking conditions, but also the taste of each dish perfect!"
"I really want to meet the master chef who is the chef today,"
"It's not an exaggeration to be afraid of being the imperial chef, right?"
"More than that!"
While everyone was discussing, a voice couldn't help but sound.
"When you are patronizing these Huaiyang dishes, haven't you noticed that the master chef has prepared other good things?"
"This is oil-fried double crispy, nine-turn large intestine, sea cucumber roasted with green onions, and fish fillets in a marinade,"
"It tastes no worse than the ones made by the master chefs in the Eighth Building!"
"There are also braised fat goose, braised shark's fin, poached tenderloin, and stir-fried phoenix tongue,"
“They are all authentic palace dishes!”
A word that wakes up the dreamer!
It can be said that
Among the guests here,
There are many people with high social status, and they are also gourmets, so they can naturally taste the authentic taste of these dishes,
It’s endlessly memorable!
"Wait a minute..."
"Today's table contains Shandong cuisine, Huaiyang cuisine, and palace cuisine. How many cooks were hired?"
"Old man,"
"Can you explain it to everyone just to satisfy everyone's curiosity?"
When Mr. Zhao heard this, he naturally did not dampen everyone's interest and turned to look at his son-in-law.
"O new people,"
"Go to the kitchen and invite the chef over and introduce him to everyone."
"Hey,"
"Dad, please wait, I will invite the master over now,"
At this moment,
Li Xinmin was also extremely grateful to Xu Yi,
Especially after witnessing the reactions of the guests present,
I can’t help but feel happy,
I had previously invited Xu Yi to attend my father-in-law’s birthday party,
What a wise thing to do.
Otherwise,
Not only is there no good solution to today's sudden change,
I'm afraid that my old father-in-law's interest in the birthday banquet will also be dampened.
Not like it is now,
It’s like a scene where the guest and the host are enjoying themselves!
"Brother Xu,"
When Li Xinmin came to the kitchen, he was a little curious when he saw Xu Yi who was still busy.
“Isn’t the food already on the table?”
"What are you..."
"Oh?"
"This is not a birthday party for the old man. The things I gave you before are really hard to get rid of."
"It just so happens that there are still a lot of ingredients left in the kitchen,"
"I plan to borrow flowers to offer to Buddha and make a birthday peach for the old man to celebrate!"
Xu Yi also said quietly.
Of course,
This longevity peach has been almost ready from the beginning,
It’s also fresh at the moment.
It is worth mentioning that
Although this longevity peach is made from flour,
But through Xu Yi's hands,
It is also ruddy in color and lifelike, and looks somewhat similar to the legendary fairy peach!
"Huh?"
And when Xu Yi held such a huge longevity peach,
When they came to the main hall, many people couldn't help but widen their eyes,
On the one hand, it’s because of the longevity peach in Xu Yi’s hand
On the other hand, I didn’t expect that the cook at today’s birthday banquet would be so young!
You know,
The dishes on the table today include Huaiyang cuisine, Shandong cuisine and palace cuisine,
And every dish is quite authentic,
None of the gourmets present could find any fault with it!
However,
All this was actually done by a young man in his early twenties,
I'm afraid...
The other party couldn't do all this even if he learned to cook in his mother's womb, right?
"Hiss——"
Mr. Zhao, who was sitting in the main seat, was also a little puzzled when he saw Xu Yi coming with a longevity peach in his hand.
"Xiao Xu, the miracle doctor,"
"Why are you the one cooking today?"
"Dad,"
"The hotel called me before and said that the cook suddenly had acute appendicitis and had been sent to the hospital."
"I can't find anyone to replace him for a while,"
"So,"
"Brother Xu volunteered and took over the cooking job,"
"Hiss,"
A few words left,
It also completely confirmed that this meal was indeed made by Xu Yi!
