Chapter Eighty-Six: A Taste of Childhood
At twelve o'clock in the afternoon, the number of people in the store reached its peak.
However, the store is still extremely spacious, and those takeaway brothers before can also find a place to sit and wait for the meal.
At this moment, several commercial vehicles stopped steadily, and then several well-dressed old men stepped down from them.
Two of them are Tong Ming and Tang Long.
"Let's be here today, talking about business and eating at the same time, the lo-mei here is a must."
Before entering the door, Tong Ming excitedly recommended lo-mei to others.
As soon as he entered the door, Tong Ming stopped and looked at the entire store, looking like that, he seemed to be very satisfied with the decoration of the store.
Before he could praise him, the tangy fragrance had already attracted him to Chen Yu's window.
There are two most important series in Sichuan cuisine, which are sweet and sour and fishy
The soul of it is the sweet and sour sauce and the fish sauce, which taste similar but not the same.
At this moment, Chen Yu is experimenting with the sweet and sour sauce and fish flavor sauce given by the system.
And a sweet and sour pork rib has been scrambled, and a fish-flavored egg.
"Is this new?" Tong Ming shouted with some excitement.
Seeing Tong Ming coming, Chen Yu hurriedly put down what he was doing and walked out of the kitchen.
"Why are you here?"
Tong Ming patted Chen Yu on the shoulder: "There are a few business partners from the imperial capital, and the lunch will be settled here with you." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the sweet and sour pork ribs and fish-flavored eggs that were placed there.
"These two dishes will be served to me directly, and in addition, you will bring me some of these newly marinated things, and then make some noodles and cakes."
Chen Yu nodded, and then greeted Lan Jing, who was cleaning beside him.
The little girl didn't dare to slack off, and hurried to find Wang Qingshan.
Among these bosses brought by Tong Ming, one of them was a native of Sichuan.
When he saw the fish-flavored eggs served, he was a little excited and took a bite of the super chopsticks.
"That's what it tastes like! It's been more than forty years, and finally I can eat it again. ”
The boss shouted excitedly, and regardless of his image, he picked up the plate of fish-flavored eggs and devoured them.
And the boss was crying while eating, which frightened a few people next to him.
Tong Ming was also stunned: "Lao Liu, what's wrong with you?" No matter how delicious it is, you can't cry. ”
Liu Chong didn't answer Tong Ming immediately, but licked the plate clean after eating the fish-flavored eggs.
Only at this moment did he look at Tong Ming with teary eyes: "Old Tong, you don't know, my late father was a chef who specialized in Sichuan cuisine!" ”
"Since he died, I haven't had such authentic fish-flavored eggs."
More than 40 years ago, during the famine, many places could not even afford to eat meat, so many Sichuan chefs replaced the meat in some dishes with eggs.
It was also at that time that there was an extra fish-flavored egg in Sichuan cuisine.
But the process of this dish is a bit troublesome, and now that people's lives are getting better again, few people think about this dish anymore.
As a result, it gradually loses its authentic taste.
Several people present were a little stunned when they heard this, and it seemed that this dish evoked Liu Chong's thoughts about his father.
Tong Ming sighed lightly: "Lao Liu, since this is the case, then I will let you eat this dish today!" ”
Saying that, Tong Ming directly faced the sea in the window: "Son-in-law, that fish-flavored egg just now, fry a little more." ”
Hearing Tong Ming's shout, Chen Yu didn't think much about it.
Anyway, there are still a lot of eggs bought back in the morning.
However, when he heard the word son-in-law, several bosses present looked at Tong Ming in unison.
Especially Liu Chong, his eyes are full of incredulity.
"This is your son-in-law's shop? He fried this dish? ”
Tong Ming's face actually showed a little arrogance: "What? My son-in-law's craft is not to your liking? ”
This is obviously a bit knowing, but it also carries some ostentatious meaning.
Liu Chong waved his hand again and again: "To be able to scramble such authentic fish-flavored eggs, to say the least, it takes thirty or forty years of skill, could it be that your son-in-law has learned to cook since he was a child?" ”
Tong Ming fumbled with the cane in his hand, his face full of pride.
"Something! It depends on talent! My son-in-law, that's well-rounded, and it's a double master's degree. ”
Except for Tang Long, the others present all opened their mouths wide and looked at Tong Ming with envy.
At their point, the most important thing is to find a qualified successor.
A young man who can do this kind of cooking will definitely not be far off from doing anything else.
And there are also high academic qualifications!
In their opinion, Tong Ming has properly picked up a treasure.
At this moment, Chen Yu brought two plates of fish-flavored eggs again.
"If you can eat Sichuan's spicy dishes, I'll fry a few."
Several of the people present were all big names with heads and faces, and they all looked Chen Yu up and down with an inexplicable gaze at this moment.
"Young and handsome, capable and promising, he is really a good guy!" Liu Chong couldn't help but praise.
At this moment, Tong Ya, who had just coaxed Tuan Tuan to take a lunch break, happened to come down from upstairs.
When she saw Tong Ming sitting in the hall with a few bosses, she was a little unhappy.
However, she still sorted out her emotions a little and stepped forward to say hello to the other old people.
After all, they are all Tong Ming's business partners, and in terms of seniority, she has to call her uncle no matter what.
No matter how much she and Tong Ming don't get along, this is the least of a tutor.
But when she finished greeting, she puffed out her mouth and pouted Tong Ming.
then pulled Chen Yu back to the kitchen.
At this time, the envy in the eyes of several other bosses was even worse.
Wealthy families like them have a somewhat bad relationship with their children.
Most of the children who are suitable for inheriting the family property have their own opinions, either running away from home or starting their own business.
Although the children who stay at home are obedient, they can't do anything.
Now the joy shown by Tong Ming's family really makes them a little jealous.
Tong Ming's own family situation, he knows better than anyone else, but at this time, it is all about saving face, and he is happy to enjoy the attention of everyone.
However, in the kitchen, Tong Ya pulled Chen Yu's arm with a look of resentment.
"Did they give the money?"
Chen Yu lowered his shoulders indifferently: "It's just a new dish for testing, what kind of money do you charge?" ”
"That's not good, it will only fuel their arrogance to come here to eat!"
Chen Yu couldn't help laughing, and just wanted to say, after all, it was your father, but the words came to his lips and took them back.
just looked at Tong Ya with a doting face: "Then you see, how much is appropriate?" ”
Tong Ya pouted and thought for a while: "No matter what, I have to slaughter him severely, and see if he dares to come here to eat in the future." ”
