Chapter 6 Guest Chef

After the business was settled, and seeing that it was already noon, Zhao Ye took advantage of the situation and offered to treat the two of them to dinner.

Huang Xiuhui didn't want to but refused: "What's so delicious about this fried chicken burger? Why don't you stay at home at noon and I will cook it myself, which can be regarded as a welcome blessing for Xiao Su."

Hearing this, Wang Jianfei couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. You must know that on the way here, he visited a fast food restaurant near Zhao Ye's Amway.

"I think it's okay. Not only do those fast food save time, but they're also delicious and not expensive."

Huang Xiuhui shook her head and said in disgust: "You are used to eating these junk foods, so of course you think they are good. But Xiao Su is new here, how can he adapt to American tastes?"

"It doesn't matter to me, you can eat whatever you want."

After Zhao Ye finished speaking, he suddenly thought that Wang Jianfei had mentioned that Aunt Huang's family owned a Chinese restaurant. An idea immediately came to his mind, so he volunteered:

"It's my first time here. I'm really sorry to trouble Aunt Huang, the owner. If you two don't mind it, how about I cook this meal?"

Wang Jianfei was indifferent to this, but Huang Xiuhui looked surprised. She looked Zhao Ye up and down and said in surprise: "I didn't expect Xiao Su to know how to cook. I'll give it a try. I didn't know Xiao Su was good at it."

What to cook?”

"I know how to cook some home-cooked dishes. If I really want to be good at it, I have some knowledge of Sichuan cuisine. I just wonder if Auntie and David can eat spicy food?"

In this Chinese-inhabited area, colorful Chinese culture is everywhere, everything written and heard is in Chinese, and everything seen is very traditional Chinese style.

Huang Xiuhui replied without thinking: "No need to ask him, I have made the decision on this matter. I will take you to Chinatown in San Francisco in a moment."

Here you can find all kinds of daily groceries from China, as well as precious jewelry. It also retains traditional restaurants and buildings, such as the Tin Hau Ancient Temple.

Although Zhao Ye was too lazy to find an English name, he still thanked Wang Jianfei for his kindness and said that he would call him when he got a US mobile phone card.

After thinking about this, Zhao Ye made a decision to brush up as many skills as possible in the first world to prepare for the subsequent time travel.

Closer to home, after learning that the two of them could eat spicy food, Zhao Yema took action. He first checked the seasonings at Huang Xiuhui's home, and then accompanied by Wang Jianfei, went to a nearby supermarket to buy fresh ingredients.

Wang Jianfei on the side gave timely assistance and said: "Jenny, if you think Su's cooking skills are good, why not introduce him to work in your restaurant, so that David can also spend time with you."

There are more than 100,000 Chinese living there, as well as a large number of Asians, and a small number of white and black people. Most of these ethnic groups are Vietnamese.

"I just realized today that authentic Chinese food is so delicious, but why is it different from what I used to eat?"

Huang Xiuhui and Wang Jianfei each tasted a few mouthfuls, and then they unanimously gave a thumbs up. Wang Jianfei even expressed doubts:

In Zhao Ye's view, in addition to providing the convenience of time travel and various rewards, the most valuable aspect of the system is the ability to upgrade skills.

Wang Jianfei, who had already earned a commission, wisely said goodbye. When leaving, he left his mobile phone number with Zhao Ye and kindly reminded him:

"So that's it. Why was the twice-cooked pork I ate last time sweet?" Wang Jianfei suddenly realized.

The reason why Zhao Ye spent so much time on it was because there was no reason to refuse, so he immediately agreed and then mentioned the difficulties.

It was already past lunch time, and the restaurant seemed quite deserted, with only two tables of customers sitting in the lobby on the first floor.

Huang Xiuhui was really moved when she heard this and quickly asked Zhao Ye for his opinion.

Therefore, Level 2 cooking skills may not seem high, but in fact they are enough. The average chef may only reach Level 3. For example, Level 4 is probably a rare state banquet chef, while Level 5 is probably

They all belong to the legendary level.

In layman's terms, as long as you have enough skills and experience, you can advance to the full level without encountering any bottlenecks in the middle. This is a huge benefit, and it is equivalent to opening up the body's limiter invisibly.

"I'm planning to apply for work-study status from the school. With Aunt Huang's help, I won't have to look for a job by myself."

This is a unique place, like a small China.

Chinatown in San Francisco, located on the west coast of the United States, and Chinatown in New York on the east coast are both known as the largest Chinese communities in the United States.

After watching Wang Jianfei drive away, Zhao Ye got into Huang Xiuhui's car, and the two of them chatted and laughed as they headed towards San Francisco.

"Xiao Su's skills are good, much better than ours."

Regarding this issue, Huang Xiuhui naturally has more say. She explained with a smile: "You don't understand this. Those Chinese restaurants made changes entirely to cater to the taste of Americans. If you want to eat authentic Chinese food

, you must tell the waiter in advance before dining."

Huang Xiuhui smiled and ignored Wang Jianfei again, and the topic returned to Zhao Ye.

Soon, under Zhao Ye's careful preparation, fish-flavored shredded pork, Kung Pao chicken, twice-cooked pork, boiled fish, stir-fried beans, stir-fried edamame with pickled vegetables, six vegetables and a pot of white rice were freshly baked.

Zhao Ye expressed repeatedly: "Aunt Huang deserves the award. My cooking skills are actually only average. I just figured it out by myself. I don't dare to compare with professionals."

But Huang Xiuhui shook her head and sighed: "Xiao Su, please don't be humble. Your Aunt Huang and I are from the north. I originally like spicy food, but your Uncle Liu is good at Huaiyang cuisine. Over the years, I can cook

I'm so hungry."

The restaurant is antique and built entirely in accordance with the ancient Chinese architectural style. The plaque on the main entrance reads three large gilt characters, Jinxiu Tower.

It can be seen that this Aunt Huang is also a resolute boss. After finishing the meal, she simply cleaned up and then personally drove Zhao Ye to San Francisco.

According to the description of the system, the five levels of common skills represent: level one is beginner, level two is proficient, level three is mastery, level four is master, and level five is superb.

After arriving at Chinatown, which covers an area of ​​16 streets, Huang Xiuhui took Zhao Ye and entered from the Tianxiaweigong Archway at the intersection of Duban Street and Bush Street. Then they passed by the historic St. Mary's Church and finally parked the car at Ross.

There was a parking space at the entrance of the alley, and Zhao Ye was taken to a two-story restaurant in the alley.

"But one thing needs to be explained in advance. I have to go to class during the week and I don't have much time, so I can only work on weekends. I wonder if uncle will mind?"

"Su, remember to call me if you need anything. Also, you'd better give me an English name, so that you can communicate with Americans more easily. Of course, this is just my personal suggestion."

When it comes to cooking skills, Zhao Ye is really not bragging. He wandered in Shanghai for many years before time travel. During this period, in order to satisfy his personal appetite, he signed up for a cooking training class and studied for a period of time. This is why

The reason why there is Level 2 cooking skill in his skill column.

The adaptable student who was dozing off at the cashier saw his landlady arriving and greeted him enthusiastically: "Why are you here? Are you looking for the boss?"

Huang Xiuhui looked around, nodded and asked casually: "Where is your boss?"

The adaptive student looked at Zhao Ye curiously, pointed in the direction of the kitchen and said, "A batch of seafood just arrived. The boss was worried and went to the back to keep an eye on it. Do you want me to call him?"

"No, I'll go find him myself."
