Chapter 018: Big Brother's Double Unique
Located in Midtown Manhattan, the 'Dragon and Phoenix Restaurant' should be the most well-known Chinese restaurant in New York, and there is no one!
Throughout North America, there are few Chinese restaurants that can match it.
This restaurant has been open for decades, initially in Chinatown, but as the business has grown bigger and bigger, the original old store is no longer enough to carry on. Therefore, after careful consideration and relocation, there is the current 'Da Longfeng Restaurant'.
Focusing on new Cantonese cuisine and supplemented by other cuisines, the 'Da Long Feng Restaurant' is not only aimed at Chinese people, but has even been successfully selected as a three-Michelin restaurant.
Therefore, the popularity of 'Da Long Feng Restaurant' in New York is very high.
However, in addition to the boss's dedication, there is another decisive factor in the fact that this restaurant can get to this point, that is, the current chef, Jiang Shan!
It is said that the ancestor of this chef was the imperial chef of the imperial court, and he was also a special chef of Cantonese cuisine, and after traveling north and south in China, he further came into contact with the essence of various cuisines, and finally became a school of his own, creating a unique new style of Cantonese cuisine.
After taking over the position of chef from the previous head chef, he drastically changed the traditional menu of the restaurant and added many new Cantonese dishes.
It is with the continuous efforts of this chef that the business of 'Da Long Feng Restaurant' can get better and better, and its reputation is getting louder and louder, until it is included in the selection of three Michelin stars.
It is true that for Chinese tastes, the selection criteria of three Michelin stars may not be convincing, but this is New York after all. With such a golden signboard, 'Da Long Feng Restaurant' can be regarded as a real rebirth and can become a well-known restaurant in the United States and even the world.
On this day, Jiang Shan, who was tasting the new dishes experimented by the chefs in the back kitchen, suddenly received a phone call.
"What? Master is going to accept closed disciples? Obediently, this is not a joke, when, tomorrow...... Okay, okay, don't worry, I'll definitely be here in time. Jiang Shan, who walked to the corner, first showed a surprised look, and then agreed.
After answering the phone, Jiang Shan said to a group of cooks, "I have something to do tomorrow, I may not be able to come, you all be conscious, if something goes wrong, I can't spare you-"
"Okay, Boss Jiang, just go, we'll be here here."
"How many times have I told you, don't call me Boss Jiang, call me the chef...... This is the kitchen, not the entrance of the underworld, what is the boss or not. ”
"Got it, Boss Jiang!" A group of chefs with hippie smiles.
"You lazy people, you just don't clean up!" Jiang Shan scolded with a smile.
After that, Jiang Shan shook his head with a smile, and he was not really angry.
What was on his mind now was mostly what he had just said on the phone.
The master actually wants to accept the disciples of the closed door, this is really the sun coming out in the west, he has never heard him mention this kind of thought before, he didn't expect it to be so sudden.
"Who is it that can make Master move such thoughts, it's really curious......" Jiang Shan patted his round belly and guessed with interest.
……
Naturally, it was not only Winnie and Jiang Shan who received the notice from the martial arts hall.
The disciples of the branch in all corners of New York received calls from Hua Tianwen one after another, informing them of the incident one by one, and told them to rush back to the martial arts hall on Sunday.
After learning that it was Master Li Luofeng who planned to accept the disciples of the closed door, they all understood the importance of the matter, and they did not dare to refuse, and they all said that they would definitely arrive. Moreover, just like Jiang Shan, they are also very curious about who the closed disciple Master Li Luofeng wants to accept will be.
*************
In the blink of an eye, Sunday has arrived.
Zhang Taibai, as today's protagonist, definitely couldn't really wait for everyone else to arrive, so he rushed to the martial arts hall in advance after eating breakfast.
It was only when he arrived that he found out that there were a few people who arrived earlier than him.
"Come on, let me introduce you to you, this kid is today's protagonist, that is, our future ninth junior brother." As soon as Zhang Taibai entered the door, he heard a laughing voice.
The one who spoke was a man with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, who looked a few years older than Zhang Taibai, but what was a little strange was that although this man looked very young, he was actually young and bald for some reason, and he looked like there was an inexplicable sense of contrast.
His name is Yu Yi, and he ranks sixth among the eight personal disciples.
For this sixth senior brother, Zhang Taibai must be no stranger.
Because just like the third senior brother Hua Tianwen, the sixth senior brother Yu Yi is also one of the personal disciples who often return to the martial arts hall to help teach apprentices, and he has also mentored Zhang Taibai twice.
"I've seen the sixth senior brother." Zhang Taibai greeted politely.
"In the future, I will be my own brother, don't be so restrained." Yu Yi waved his hand indifferently, and at the same time pointed to the few people next to him and began to introduce Zhang Taibai one by one.
He first pointed to the middle-aged fat man beside him who looked like he weighed two or three hundred pounds and introduced, "This is our senior brother, the boss of the country, you shouldn't have seen it yet-"
"Senior Brother Taibai is the dragon and phoenix among people at a glance, no wonder the master will take a fancy to you and want to accept you as a closed disciple, Huiyan." The chubby elder brother Jiang Shan said with a smile.
Looking at this senior brother who met for the first time, Zhang Taibai felt a sense of intimacy for no reason, although he knew that the other party was saying polite words, but he couldn't get tired of it.
"Senior brother has won the award, please take care of me in the future." Zhang Taibai said humbly.
"Hahahaha, no problem, come to me at any time if you have something, you can go to my place if you have nothing to do, and I will personally cook you a good dish to entertain you!" Jiang Shan laughed.
"Senior brother, you're too partial, why don't I have this treatment." Yu Yi said sourly, and at the same time looked at Zhang Taibai and said, "Taibai, you don't know yet, our senior brother is a famous double master, a martial arts master, a cooking skill, and now he is still the chef of the 'Da Longfeng Restaurant', if you want to eat the dishes he makes, tsk, that's really rare but unwanted!" ”
"'Big Dragon and Phoenix Restaurant'? The only three-Michelin-starred Chinese restaurant in New York? Hearing Yu Yi's words, Zhang Taibai asked in surprise.
Zhang Taibai, who has all his memories of this world, can be regarded as a veritable native of New York, how could he not have heard of the famous Michelin Chinese restaurant. However, neither the original one nor the current one has ever had the opportunity to go.
Because the consumption of the 'Big Dragon and Phoenix Restaurant' is really not low, Rao is already among the petty bourgeoisie in this world, and he is not willing to rub it out.
"What else could it be?" Yu Yi said.
"I've always heard of the reputation of the 'Big Dragon and Phoenix Restaurant', but I haven't been willing to go, I really didn't expect it to be taken care of by you, senior brother." Zhang Taibai smiled at Jiangshan, "I originally wanted to be polite, but now it seems that I can't be polite, I must go for a meal if I have the opportunity." ”
"Come on, I don't have anything else, enough to eat!" Jiang Shan patted his belly with a smile and said arrogantly.
