Chapter 22: The Taste of Salt

"Zhao Shen, don't come tomorrow, I lack a master here, although you are proficient in everything and know everything, but you can't even taste the saltiness of a dish, what use do I want you?"

That message Zhao Shen hasn't deleted yet, everything is as vivid as yesterday, but time flies and never returns, he is still him, he is not the same him. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After hesitating for a moment, I worked in a five-star hotel, and in the back kitchen, I cooked for other guests every day, but I didn't eat once.

Now that I have money, even if I don't have a sense of taste, I can't treat myself badly, and I finally don't let me leave regrets in my heart.

……

Look up at the golden hotel gate, the name is very magnificent, a few big gilded characters of the hotel are hung high above the dragon head plaque, and the four words are like flowing water! The name is Nine Star Hotel!

The red carpet that stretches from the door all the way to the bottom of the stairs is a bit warm and magnificent on this winter day.

The luxury cars at the door are parked on the parking space, which shows that there is something called strength.

In the crystal clear rotating glass passage, the two stone lions look mighty and domineering, and the two cheongsam beauties stand on the left and right, with a beautiful posture.

"Hello sir, please." Seeing Zhao Shen approaching, one of the cheongsam beauties walked up enthusiastically and quickly to say hello. Naturally, there are people behind to fill in the position.

"Do you need me to carry your luggage for you?" The cheongsam beauty has a standard etiquette smile on her face.

"No, I'll do it myself." In addition to a wallet, Zhao Shen doesn't have any luggage, so naturally there is no need to toss others.

As the cheongsam beauties entered from the main entrance, the kitchen that used to work here had a special staff channel, and this was the first time Zhao Shen walked in from the main entrance in this place.

As for the past, maybe I secretly glanced at this beautiful lady in a cheongsam from the back kitchen, and fantasized about being able to have a little relationship with one of them, even if it was a wonderful life, right?

……

The past is unbearable to look back on, and there is no need to mention it again!

Money is a bad thing that makes people greedy, but this thing is wonderful!

"How many are you, sir?" During the leading process, the cheongsam beauty asked.

"I'm alone." Zhao Shen replied.

The beauty was slightly stunned, it is relatively rare for a person to come to such a big hotel to eat.

"Sir, this way, please." The cheongsam beauty stretched out her white lotus arm, made a gesture of invitation, and led Zhao Shen behind her to a position by a window.

Zhao Shen nodded, he was more satisfied, the position near the window always made people feel refreshed.

"Ding"

Press the small button next to the table, the welcome beauty will leave, the facilities and services of the five-star hotel are very fine and thoughtful, she is only responsible for the seat, there will be a special waiter to come to order.

……

A rectangular table, wood-colored lacquer grain, plum blossoms on it, is retro style, accompanied by a white translucent tablecloth, in the middle of which is a jade-colored vase, in which a fresh carnation is inserted, disposable sterilized tableware neatly placed aside. Only this style has entered the stomach for three points!

Soon a waiter came over.

"Sir, your menu, please take a look at it." A young girl with a soft voice handed the menu to Zhao Shen.

"Do you have any recommendations for today?"

Zhao Shen is also the first time to come to a five-star hotel to eat, he used to have no sense of taste, everything he eats is like chewing wax, how can he have the heart to spend a lot of money to experience life. And because he didn't live in the dormitory provided by the hotel, he didn't know anyone except his colleagues in the back kitchen.

As for the dishes, not to mention, I have only done it and never eaten it, so it's not bad to listen to the recommendations.

"Yes, there is a nourishing soft-shelled turtle made by the chef at noon today, which can effectively warm the stomach and kidneys, nourish yang qi, do you need one?" The girl's face was slightly red as she spoke, it was the supervisor who deliberately asked for this introduction to the male guest, although the little girl who had not been trained had said it many times, but she was still a little embarrassed when facing the young Zhao Shen.

"Then have one, is there anything else?" Zhao Shen thought about it, the chef does stew soup sometimes, but he has never drunk it and has never seen the chef much, and the division of personnel in such a large hotel is quite clear. There are still very few opportunities for handymen to meet the chef.

But now, the food made by my handyman is far better than that of the chef.

"That's all for today's chef's menu, why don't you try our specialties here?" As she spoke, the little girl gently flipped the menu to the pages of specialty recommendations.

"Wow"

Zhao Shen casually looked at the pages of specialties, and finally said: "Give me a copy of these things, the staple food is egg fried rice." ”

……

The waiter girl saw that Zhao Shen had ordered all the special dishes, plus the chef's soup for a total of eighteen dishes, and asked in surprise: "Sir, are you the only one?" The amount of our dishes is still okay, are you sure you want one? ”

"It's okay, just go up." Of course, Zhao Shen knew that he couldn't eat so much, but when he walked in today, it was mainly a wish, who didn't want to be able to dominate the world one day when he was swept away?

Since it is to pay for the knot in my heart, what is the point of ordering one or two dishes in a small family.

"Okay, wait a minute, if you have a friend coming, press the button and we'll add utensils for you." When the waiter saw Zhao Shen's insistence, the waiter girl stopped persuading and politely took the menu and left, thinking that Zhao Shen would have friends coming soon.

The division of labor in the kitchen of the hotel is very clear, and the time from placing an order to serving food in the kitchen is only about ten minutes, and there will be special personnel responsible for each process.

"Sir, this is the chef's soft-shelled turtle soup, charcoal lamb chops, vermicelli oysters, boiled bullfrog, Sichuan-flavored spicy shrimp ......" The little brother who is in charge of serving the dishes will report the name of a dish every time he serves it, and Zhao Shen is quietly waiting for all the dishes to be served.

"Sir, your dishes are ready, please use them slowly."

Zhao Shen nodded, picked up his chopsticks and prepared to eat the richest lunch in the past ten years. Suddenly, I felt a touch like an electric current pass through the tip of my tongue.

……

"Huh? This frog meat is too old and too spicy, which completely robs the deliciousness of the frog meat. ”

"The eggs of this egg fried rice are not hot, although they are tender, but the fishy smell of the eggs masks the dry and delicious egg fried rice itself."

"The taste of this mutton is not properly handled, and the smell is too strong, which affects the taste."

Suddenly, Zhao Shen stopped, even the action of chewing in his mouth stopped, and he was stunned to feel the taste in his mouth, it was the first time in his life that he really felt what salty salt tasted like!
