Chapter 37: Maki Morita (Part I)
One afternoon, it wasn't long talked. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In the information age, with mobile phones, time always passes quietly in forums and tweets.
At six o'clock in the evening, when the orange sunset spilled into the storefront from the door, there was movement in the back kitchen.
Under Xia Yu's instructions, Mu Xiaoyue hung the brand of today's six dishes on the menu bar on the wall. Anya stood at the counter, grabbed pad and pens, ready to record the guests' orders.
"Sure enough, none of the dishes were less than 2,000 yen!"
"Vegetarian dishes average 2,500 yen, meat dishes average 3,500 yen!"
An Yilun also stood in front of the menu bar with Eiri Sawamura.
Sawamura Eiri had a very relaxed expression, this was not pretending, as the daughter of a British diplomat, she had eaten countless expensive dishes, and was even a frequent customer of many high-end restaurants under Yuanyue.
She also ate Erina Nagi's own cooking, and she still has a lot of aftertaste. Sawamura Eiri glanced at An Yilun, knowing that this guy was working very hard to do odd jobs, consuming porpoises, and not having enough money, so she said in a natural tone: "Since I invited you, then I will pay for it." β
An Yilun also gritted his teeth and insisted on the AA system, "Let's order two dishes each!"
"Whatever. β
The corners of Ying Lili's mouth twitched. She was originally a tsundere character, so she didn't persuade much, and turned back to Anya behind the counter and said, "I want this, and this!"
Anya couldn't understand Japanese, but she could distinguish gestures.
In fact, Ren Xue and Mizutani Jun had ordered the meal before them, so Ying Lili knew that the language barrier was incomprehensible, so she simply used gestures.
"I want those two!" An Yilun also said next.
Anya carefully recorded.
The slowest to order food were the three little girls, standing in front of the menu bar and chattering, and there was no accurate message for a long time.
The two menus had been sent to the kitchen by Mu Xiaoyue, and then, Mu Xiaoyue was at the door of the kitchen, full of interest, staring at Xia Yu, who was busy.
The first is chopping vegetables.
For home-cooked food, Xia Yu did not take out the [Broken Jade Knife], only used an ordinary kitchen knife, and each ingredient was transformed in his hands, cut into pieces, shredded and strips, as if it had been calculated by a strict brain, and there was no difference in size and shape.
Knock!
Two large woks were set up by him on the blazing stove, and cooking oil was poured in, and the sound of boiling grease resounded in the kitchen.
Coincidentally, a table of guests ordered the squirrel perch that he was very good at, which was a Su dish, and the boneless fish fillets that he had deboned and processed were marinated at the earliest, and the oil in the hot pan was just right at this time, and it was pinched very accurately.
A fish in the hot grease quickly turns golden brown.
While frying the fish, Xia Yu was still operating another big wok, which was also a processed ingredient, a whole basket of prawns, which he poured into the pot in one go, poof, just fried for 5 seconds, and the shrimp were scooped up by him with a colander spoon, controlled the oil, and set aside.
At this time, the squirrel perch was still frying, and the heat was still far away, so Xia Yu poured the peanut oil that had just fried the shrimp into the prepared pot, and then threw the quick-fried shrimp into the wok, added various seasonings, and began to really stir-fry.
Mu Xiaoyue was stunned.
The knife skills of cutting vegetables, the lifting of weights when stir-frying, and the freedom to sway, make her obsessed.
Especially when stir-frying the prawns in the top pot, the heavy black wok, it looks very heavy, but the young chef keeps stir-frying with the pot, how can he be a little hard?
She didn't know that Xia Yu had made a physical leap today.
Open the bow left and right, no problem.
The fried prawns were served on the plate at the earliest.
The second course is squirrel sea bass of the same dish.
And the third course is Lu cuisine, a seafood tofu.
When Xia Yu instructed her to turn on the steamer that was boiling on the third stove and bring out a plate of dishes, Mu Xiaoyue was shocked to find that the young chef was actually operating on the third line!
These three dishes are on the table of Ren Xue and Mizutani Jun, they are the first to order, and naturally they are the first to eat the freshly cooked dishes.
"It's servedβ"
Xia Yu continued to cook, while Mu Xiaoyue was in charge of serving.
Three plates of dishes were served on the table, and this time it was Ren Xue and Mizutani Jun who enjoyed everyone's gaze.
The fragrance is too strong.
Shrimp, fried fish, squid steamed tofu.
Three very different flavors that escape in the storefront.
The three little girls who hadn't decided what to order were drooling on the spot.
Before Ren Xue and Mizutani Jun waited for Mu Xiaoyue to serve the meal, their index fingers moved, and they couldn't help but put down the chopsticks, and the frequency of chopsticks picking vegetables, after tasting a bite, there was a tendency to be swept away, which was staggering.
"Looks like you've come to the right place!" Sawamura Eiri is very happy, if the food at the shop is delicious enough, then she can find the noble Miss Erina Nagikiri again.
As for An Yilun, who had been stimulated by the smell of food, his stomach acid secreted sharply, lowered his head, and kept pushing the frame of his glasses.
Facts have proved that Xia Yu's devil training in the kitchen god space has achieved remarkable results, and this time the three tables of guests just took an hour to make all the dishes ordered by the guests. While being efficient, he also takes into account the quality, for every dish, he has to let the kitchen god system score it, and only after the judgment is qualified, he tells Mu Xiaoyue to take it out.
"Click"
Before moving the chopsticks, Sawamura Eiri took her mobile phone, changed different angles, aimed at the beautiful dishes on the table, and took a lot of pictures.
She ignored the "childhood sweetheart".
An Yilun also held the chopsticks tightly, the Adam's apple rolled, and the face under the big black glasses frame was a little cloudy.
Soon, the dishes ordered by the three little girls were also served, and the store was silent for a while, only the crisp sound of chopsticks touching the plate.
Cleaning all kinds of kitchen utensils in the kitchen and throwing away the useless ingredients and leftovers, Xia Yu didn't have time to catch his breath, and the second wave of guests arrived today, and the small shop that had been deserted for a long time was more than half of the seats shortly after it opened at six o'clock.
Diners come and go, from six o'clock to twelve o'clock at midnight, no matter how many batches of guests change, no one is lucky enough to see Xia Yu, who is always busy in the kitchen.
Late at night.
Xia Yu walked out of the back kitchen and went to the counter to ventilate.
"Huh?"
He found that the guests hadn't left yet, Ren Xue and Mizutani Jun had left, but in addition to Anya and Mu Xiaoyue, there was also a long-haired black girl standing at the door with her back to him.
"The shop is closed. β
Xia Yu smiled and glanced at the old wall clock in the store, which was still a moment away from 12 o'clock in the morning, "Ueno Station is very close, if you go back at this time, maybe you can catch the last train." β
Hearing this, the girl turned around.
"Morita Maki?" Xia Yu fixed his eyes on the girl's face and slightly restrained his smile, "Why are you here?"
"I tasted delicious Chinese food tonight, so I stayed here to see what the chef was like......"
