Chapter 20: The opening of the food festival
Ordinary guests can just post a notice to inform them, but Chen Wensong, a key customer, must call in person. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Therefore, after returning home in the evening, Rao Mingyang personally called Chen Wensong and told him that he would go to the food festival tomorrow, and if the family wanted to have breakfast, they would have to go to the food festival site of Tianhu Hotel, and told him his stall number.
In addition, he also told Chen Wensong that he was going to launch an upgraded version of mung bean noodles tomorrow, which is a broth made with three handfuls of mushrooms, the king of mushrooms, and Changting Hetian chicken, one of the world's five famous chickens, and invited their family to taste it.
Sure enough, hearing Rao Mingyang say that he was going to launch an upgraded version of mung bean noodles, and it was accompanied by three handfuls of mushrooms and the famous Kawada chicken broth, Chen Wensong immediately became interested.
Kawada chicken is okay, Chen Wensong has also eaten it, it is very delicious. But as long as you have money, this thing is still relatively easy to buy, and it is not too rare.
But with three handfuls of mushrooms, it's not that easy.
Although Chen Wensong's family is rich and powerful, but the three handfuls of mushrooms, not only the people who pick them up talk about luck, but also the people who buy them, not that if you are rich and powerful, you will definitely have to eat.
Bad luck, after more than two months, you can't bump into a person who sells three handfuls of mushrooms with the money.
Chen Wensong has eaten countless delicacies from the mountains and seas since he was a child, but he has only eaten these three handfuls of mushrooms a few times, and he can't wait to swallow his tongue every time, which is too impressive.
Therefore, when he heard Rao Mingyang say that there are three handfuls of mushrooms and Kawada chicken boiled in broth with mung bean flour, he immediately agreed to come down and definitely come to the scene tomorrow to taste it.
Then, when chatting with his parents, his father Rao Dexin said that although he couldn't do any heavy work, he could still go and help him and collect money.
Rao Mingyang thought about it and agreed, but let him not go out at 5 o'clock with him, he could just wait until he was full of sleep and then take a taxi to the scene by himself.
Then, Rao Mingyang looked at the first batch of dried mushrooms that his mother had helped him dry.
1 kg and 2 taels of fresh mushrooms, after drying, have shrunk to less than 2 taels, less than 100 grams. Then, Rao Mingyang used an electronic scale to divide it into six portions, with an average of 15 grams, and packed them in clean and non-toxic food bags.
Everything was ready, and in the early morning of August 30, before dawn, Rao Mingyang rushed to the store. rented a tricycle, and together with Han Qin, pulled all the tools and ingredients in the store to the square in front of Tianhu Hotel.
As a 4A-level tourist attraction, Tianhu Hotel has a very wide square with an area of several hectares, and many large-scale events in Mae Tan County are held here.
When I arrived at the Tianhu Hotel, I saw that a banner had been pulled up outside, with the letter: "The 3rd Food and Culture Festival of Meitan County and the selection site of Meitan County's famous snacks." ”
There are also some other units or enterprises wishing the food festival a successful advertisement, so I will not repeat them one by one.
The square in front of Tianhu Hotel has been neatly covered with booths set up by the organizers.
According to Zhou Xianying, more than 400 stalls were set up for the food festival to be used by the vendors participating in the food festival.
In addition, there are sanitation workers on standby every few hours to collect water and garbage from stalls like Rao Mingyang, who produce water and food waste.
Of course, such a caring service is not free. Depending on the location of the more than 400 stalls, the rent for the two days of the festival ranges from 1,000 yuan to 5,000 yuan.
Rao's purpose is not to make money, but to win the selection award of famous snacks.
Therefore, he did not choose a booth close to the entrance of the square that could be seen by tourists for the first time, but chose the nearest stall from the entrance of the lobby of Tianhu Hotel at the suggestion of Zhou Xianying, and spent him 4,000 yuan in rent.
This is to allow the expert judges and organizer leaders who stayed in the hotel to see his booth as soon as they went out after the meeting and taste it first.
You must know that the judges' stomachs are limited, and it is possible that if you eat too much in the front, you will not be able to eat in the back. And if you eat too much, your taste will be confused, and you won't be able to taste the taste of the food behind.
Therefore, the sooner you let the judges taste your own stuff, the better, and the easier it is to pass the primary selection.
It's still early, there aren't many people in the square, and the tricycle rented by Rao Mingyang can easily drive to the stalls.
Remove the pots, scoops, induction cookers, and other tools, fiddle neatly, and start making preparations.
Rao Mingyang boiled two kinds of chicken soup, pasted the price list, prepared disposable lunch boxes and other items, and Han Qin cut sauerkraut, crispy pork, green onions, and so on.
After Rao Mingyang posted the price list, the vendors in other stalls who were also busy preparing around saw it and immediately discussed it in surprise.
"I'm dizzy, 100 yuan for a bowl of crispy meat and mung bean flour, 200 yuan, can he sell it?"
"You don't know this, look at the name, people are called Rao Mingyang, and he has been very famous recently. The crispy meat and mung bean flour he cooked were excellent, and those who had eaten it did not say that it was not delicious. ”
"As soon as you say it, I also remember, and I've heard someone say it."
"Didn't you hear that it sells for 100 yuan a bowl? Why did you come out again for 200 yuan a bowl? ”
"Didn't you see what was written on it? Upgraded! Broth boiled with three handfuls of mushrooms and Kawada chicken. Damn, don't say it, I'm going to drool! ”
In the midst of everyone's discussion, the time slowly reached 6 o'clock, and the horns in the square began to sound, and music was played, and the food festival began.
At half past six, just when Rao Mingyang's two kinds of chicken soup were just boiled, Zhou Xianying, dressed in uniform, appeared in front of his stall.
"Fame, is the chicken soup boiled well?" Zhou Xianying asked.
"Just boiled up, Sister Zhou, you came too coincidentally." Rao Mingyang looked at the elegant and beautiful Zhou Xianying and replied happily.
Zhou Xianying was about to ask Rao Mingyang to cook a bowl of mung bean noodles for her, when she saw the price list posted on the tarpaulin on three sides of Rao Mingyang's stall.
"Rao Mingyang crispy meat mung bean flour classic version (our famous work) - 100 yuan / bowl, upgraded version (soup stock with three handfuls of mushrooms and Changting Hetian chicken boiled) - 200 yuan / bowl."
Zhou Xianying pointed to the price list and asked, "Fame, Kawada chicken, I know, what are three handfuls of mushrooms?" ”
Rao Mingyang said: "Three handfuls of mushrooms is our local name, the scientific name is chicken fir mushroom, have you heard of it?" ”
Zhou Xianying said in surprise: "Oh my God, you actually have chicken fir fungus?" It's also used to make soup and sell mung bean flour? Hurry up and bring me a bowl. ”
"Okay, we didn't have breakfast either, we just ate together!"
Then, Rao Mingyang directly cooked three bowls, scooped three handfuls of mushroom chicken soup, and ate them with Zhou Xianying and Han Qin.
