Chapter 802 Roll Call
For the sake of these bottles of treasured aging, the resort was responsible for purchasing them. After receiving the news, it was only after spending a lot of effort to buy these bottles from the treasured restaurant.
Chen Chu heard from the person in charge of the procurement that the old man had a lot of other good wine hidden in his house. There was a bottle of daughter Hong that was said to have been buried when he was young, but he had never given birth to a daughter. I still don’t know where the jar of wine is buried...
It is said that this year, there was some accident at the house of this old man who collected wine, and the old man moved out the treasured wine. Just selling the bottles of wine to the resort hotel, it sold nearly 200,000 yuan. It can only be said that there is an old man in the family, as if he has a treasure, and it is a treasure pot type!
Hearing this, Qin Changlin and Wei Mengqi couldn't help but be amazed. When they were released, who would have thought that the old wines could be preserved until now, and they were so valuable. They were not worse than those who sold antiques, and even more difficult.
Antiques can also be faked, but those with high skills make it difficult to tell whether it is true or false, but this wine cannot be faked at all. It is impossible to make wine of this year after this year. It is impossible to make wine of this year. Older people like to drink a few drinks, and they not only drink wine but also the little thoughts they thought when they were young.
Cao Shengli listened to Chen Chu and Qin Changlin and Wei Mengqi talking, and his hands were not slow at all. He didn't move a few chopsticks at all when a plate of pickled beef tendon hooves. Instead, the bottle of wine was almost dried up by Cao Shengli.
While we were talking, Chef Zhang's dishes began to be served in the kitchen. The person in charge of the restaurant department personally brought the dishes.
The dishes cooked by Chef Zhang are not as fancy as those in the hotel. They are all common dishes, even ordinary home-cooked dishes. But when they were served, Chen Chu, Qin Changlin, Wei Mengqi, and Cao Shengli who were drinking happily were all attracted by these dishes.
Dried mandarin fish, mapo tofu, boiled beef, spicy green crab and other dishes were served. These dishes did not take any dazzling names, but the names of dishes that people heard in the past, but now these dishes on the table made Chen Chu and Qin Changlin look over.
There were not many dishes, five dishes and two soups, all of which were the most authentic Sichuan cuisine, but the aroma that came out made Cao Shengli swallow. The fragrance was not made with some flavor enhancer, but the most authentic method. The aroma of the dish and meat itself was stimulated through the heat, which directly aroused people's appetite.
Chef Zhang, who had changed his clothes, walked out of the kitchen, "These dishes are all home-cooked side dishes, but they all have the purest taste. The ingredients used are all made by me. This dish was specially eaten by an embassy in Europe before. How do you taste it?"
Chef Zhang pointed to the dried roasted mandarin fish and said to Chen Chu, Qin Changlin and others. Chen Chu picked up a piece of mandarin fish meat. The mandarin fish itself has few thorns, only big thorns but no thin thorns, which is very suitable for lazy foodies to enjoy.
This book is just an ordinary fish. Once you pick it up with chopsticks, the fish cut in advance has become slices of meat. You can easily pick it up and slice it without any greasiness. The tender and smooth slices of fish are separated.
Chen Chu took a bite and felt a tenderness, and the aroma of fish came into his mouth with the soup. He didn't feel spicy in his mouth. However, after he got a stomachache, a spicy feeling began to appear, but it was even more exciting to the taste buds.
Qin Changlin, Cao Shengli, and Wei Mengqi took a bite and their faces changed. Seeing this, Chef Zhang showed a smug smile on his face. These dishes seemed ordinary, but they most test a person's strength.
It is to use these seemingly ordinary foods that can make people who eat them experience a completely different feeling. This is when a chef is most effective. Listening to thunder in silence is the most impressive thing!
After eating a few bites, Cao Shengli couldn't help but start to gluttonize. In the past, Cao Shengli had eaten many famous dishes, even some delicacies. Cao Shengli, at the state banquet level, had eaten them free of charge.
However, Cao Shengli has never experienced these dishes made from home-cooked dishes. The taste of these dishes completely subverts Cao Shengli's impression.
Looking at the few people eating big chews, Chef Zhang sat aside, drinking wine chewy bites. In front of the sushi stall outside, no one has ever been so focused as he did when eating the meal he cooked. To comment on a chef, you don’t need to look at the title, level, faction, nationality, etc., just look at whether diners are happy when eating these things!
After taking a few bites, Chen Chu poured a glass of wine for Chef Zhang. To be honest, Chen Chu has been here in Yanjing for several years. Maybe Chef Zhang is the first to do this with home-cooked dishes!
"It's true that we are worthy of being Chef Zhang. Today we have the honor to taste it. I would like to pay a cup to Master Zhang!" Chen Chu said to Chef Zhang. Chen Chu felt that he spent so much money and asked the chef to take care of the spoon. The money was definitely not in vain. The meal today alone was enough to pay for the money.
Hearing Chen Chu's words, Chef Zhang's face shook for a few times, his eyes narrowed with a smile, and said repeatedly, "I don't dare to be it. I just know some skills. Now I'm old and can't compare to other people."
When he came to the resort hotel, Chef Zhang was still very satisfied. Chef Zhang did not need to be on duty on weekdays. As long as you do today, when the senior executives of Chuke technology such as Chen Chu or Wu Xingdao arrive, or if there are important collaborators, Chef Zhang will show off his skills.
On weekdays, he is responsible for taking his apprentices and then going to the garden of the resort hotel to make flowers and plants. His life is quite good. The resort hotel gives him an annual salary that is a bit higher than that of being a chef in a big hotel, but he does much less work, so Chef Zhang is naturally satisfied.
Qin Changqing, who was beside him, put down the chopsticks in his hand and wiped the sweat that had appeared on his forehead. He hadn't eaten so much that he felt so happy for a long time. In the past, he stopped just a little full, but this time he almost couldn't help but eat a little bit too much, which was enough to prove how good these dishes were.
After looking at Chen Chu, Qin Changqing raised his glass and said to Chef Zhang, "I also toast Chef Zhang. Today I am full of my appetite, otherwise I wouldn't have a chance to taste these things!"
After drinking a glass of wine, Qin Changqing said to Chef Zhang, "I have a request here without asking for anything. I don't know if Chef Zhang can help. Go to my side and help me make an elder and a meal. He has a bad appetite recently!"
When Chen Chu heard Qin Changqing's words, he couldn't help but think of the old man from the Qin family he met in the courtyard last year. Apart from that person, Chen Chu couldn't remember who would make Qin Changqing so concerned about it?
At this time, Chef Zhang showed a little hesitation on her face. After working in this industry for most of her life, Chef Zhang has seen all kinds of people and experienced all kinds of things. It is precisely because of this that he became hesitant and never wanted to take those private orders. Of course, those people were given high rewards, but there were many rules, and they would be unlucky if they were not careful. Chef Zhang had seen them.
"This..." A hesitant look appeared on Chef Zhang's fat face and looked at Chen Chu. He was already retired and really didn't want to make trouble. When he came to the resort hotel, he also valued the leisure here. If he accepted Qin Changqing's invitation this time, if others invited him another day, he would agree or not. If he did not agree, he would have to offend others again!
"Don't worry, it's just a meal. Chef Zhang doesn't need to make anything else, and there will be no other troubles. I, Qin Changqing, guaranteed everything!" Qin Changqing said solemnly to Chef Zhang, and after saying that, he laughed, "You can't trust me, you should trust Lao Chen!"
Knowing that Qin Changqing asked Chef Zhang to cook for the Qin family, Chen Chu could only bear it. Although Chen Chu did not have much contact with the Qin family, he had a great relationship with Qin Changqing and Chen Chu.
"Please bother Master Zhang this time. I promise that there will be no next time and no one will make things difficult for you!" Chen Chu said to Chef Zhang.
Hearing Chen Chu's words, Chef Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. He knew Chen Chu's credit. These days he came to the resort hotel, he gradually understood what kind of person Chen Chu was. Chen Chu promised him that he would never go back on his word!
"Okay, then I'll go and have a show of ugly things. To be honest, except when I was young, I had cooked banquets with my master when I was running the hall. I've been doing it for so many years. I have to prepare for it when I look back!" said Chef Zhang.
Qin Changqing smiled and shook his head, "As long as Master Qin, you take action, everything else is easy to say!"
"Old Chen, you go with me too. Some time ago, the old man was talking about you. I haven't seen you in the past six months!"
While Chen Chu was eating a piece of beef, he suddenly heard Qin Changqing's words, and his hand couldn't help but shake, and the slices of meat fell down. Chen Chu didn't care about this and looked at Qin Changqing with a little confused, "You old man want to see me?"
Seeing Chen Chu's expression in embarrassment, Qin Changqing didn't know what to say. Wei Mengqi and Cao Shengli also looked at Chen Chu with some envy.
By the way, the old man of the Qin family lived in simplicity and rarely went out in the past. Even the people of the Qin family had no chance to see Mr. Qin. Wei Mengqi, Cao Shengli and others could only follow Qin Changqing to meet the old man of the Qin family, but don’t want to talk.
Who doesn't know that if the old man in the Qin family could be valued, even if he just said something, with the old man in the Qin family, his career would be upside down. How many people want to meet him but cannot see him.
When Chen Chu arrived, Chen Chu didn't want to go there anymore, which made Qin Changqing helpless. Cao Shengli felt that if this was spread, Chen Chu would be envied by others!
If possible, Chen Chu really doesn't want to enter that small yard again. He is under too much pressure to face the old man of the Qin family. The feeling of being seen through is really not good.
"You don't want to disappoint the old man by the name you ordered by the old man, right?" Qin Changqing said to Chen Chu with a smile. He couldn't suppress Chen Chu, but there were not many people in the country who could take out the title of the old man!
Chen Chu smiled bitterly, Qin Changqing even brought out the name. If Chen Chu didn't go there, it would be unreasonable.
