Food: Random stalls, customers chase me all over the country

Chapter 247-Under the reputation, it is actually difficult to live up to

"Everyone, try your best to guess. If you guess correctly, there will be a prize."

Old Di looked calm and composed: "Whoever guesses correctly, next time I'm in his city, I'll invite him to go shopping with me."

When fans heard this, they became excited and started racking their brains to guess.

"The prerequisite is good looks, so good that Lao Di is so confident. Could she be an idol or a celebrity?"

"Or some internet celebrity who relies on his looks to make a living?"

"Oh, Lao Di, not many people have shown their faces in this video. It's hard to guess. Can you give me some clues?"

"Just, give me some clues, is it a man or a woman, and what industry is it in?"

"Do I need a hint? I already know who it is. Old Di went to Tao Tao Ju, also known as the Cantonese House. Who else could it be but Boss Wang Fan who meets the requirements of being in the Cantonese House, being good-looking, and having a connection with Old Di?"

As soon as this guy made his analysis, the fans in the live broadcast room also reacted.

"What the hell? Isn't this impossible?"

"Is this truly a dream collaboration?"

"Don't bother with that. Quickly turn the camera to Brother Xiao Wang. I'm ready to eat!"

"Hurry up! Don't waste time!"

Old Di exclaimed in surprise, "Amazing! You guessed it all! That's right, I ran into Boss Xiao Wang tonight. Now, let Boss Xiao Wang say hello to you."

As he said that, he turned the camera over and slowly pointed it at Wang Fan.

Wang Fan smiled and greeted: "Hello everyone."

A simple sentence caused an uproar in the live broadcast room.

"A gorgeous beauty! Watching a chef like this is what makes a meal delicious."

"Old Di didn't use the beauty filter, did he? Does he really look like this?"

"What's the point of using beauty filters on Lao Di's face? His face is full of wrinkles like a chrysanthemum. Boss Wang has hair like this. I've seen him live, he's tall and handsome!"

"This is a handsome guy from our Northeast."

"Okay, the dishes are almost served, now let's move on to the tasting and review session."

Di Renjie said, and pointed the camera at the dishes: "There's no point in scolding, we are food bloggers, we don't rely on our looks to make a living, hahahaha."

Di Renjie was so happy. I told you guys to diss my looks all day long, didn't you want me to take more photos of food and less of my face? Today I'll grant your wish!

"Ah, bastard! Who wants to watch the food? I'm tired of watching it all day long. Give Boss Wang back to me!"

"Although I'm a man, I still think it's easier to eat when I see Boss Wang's face. If Boss Wang needs anything, I'm available."

"Get out of here, everyone upstairs! We girls are not dead yet!"

Di Renjie didn't care what the people in the live broadcast room said, and just started eating his food.

He picked up a piece of rosy roasted pork and showed it in front of the camera, then put it in his mouth.

After tasting it, he said, "The barbecue platter is 98. The meat is very springy and has a slight meaty flavor. Try another piece of barbecued meat."

As he said this, he picked up a piece of golden and crispy roast pork and showed it again, then put it in his mouth and chewed it with a "crunch crunch" sound. Just by listening to the sound, you can tell how crispy the meat is.

"This barbecued pork is very crispy, the meat is very elastic, and the taste is mellow and the marinade is quite thorough. I highly recommend this barbecued pork, I think it's three stars."

Wang Fan found it quite interesting to listen to Di Renjie's comments while he ate. Just then, the waiter brought up a plate of the dishes he ordered.

After giving Zhuo Qianqian a piece, he also took one for himself. The first dish was the signature dish he was looking forward to, called the Signature Fried Grouper. The dish cost 98 yuan, but the portion was indeed a bit small.

A plate not much bigger than a palm, with at most 10 slices of fish, the rest are snow peas, and two bell peppers as garnish.

This is completely different from what I imagined.

Is the plating of a century-old brand so casual?
Wang Fan hadn't eaten yet when she saw the little foodie looking at the fish on her plate with disgust.

Wang Fan found it amazing. Ever since he met Zhuo Qianqian, he had never seen such an expression of disgust on her face. She could even eat those street snacks with relish.

How bad can this taste?

Wang Fan stretched out his chopsticks, but instead of picking up the food on the plate, he took the piece from Zhuo Qianqian's plate and stuffed it into his mouth.

Little foodies never waste food. If he didn't take it away, she would probably have to eat it with a frown.

As soon as the fish entered his mouth, Wang Fan knew why Zhuo Qianqian had that expression.

The batter was too thick and the fish was cooked overcooked, so the freshness of the snow peas was not attached to the fish fillets, and it tasted a bit greasy instead.

After chewing it again, you can clearly feel that the fish meat is overcooked and has no such fresh and tender taste as grouper.

Wang Fan picked up another piece and put it in his mouth. It still felt the same. He was sure that it was indeed cooked in the same pot.

A big question mark popped up in his head. The signature dish of a century-old restaurant... is this it?
At this time, the waiter came in with two plates of frozen sweet and sour pork. Although he didn't understand why five people ordered two servings, he didn't ask any more questions.

Wang Fan moved the grouper a little and pushed the sweet and sour pork in front of Zhuo Qianqian.

Di Renjie had also taken his place and picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.

"The texture and taste of the sweet and sour pork are pretty good, but I personally can't accept the way it's served. The layer of ice underneath makes the skin of the meat a bit cold, and if the pork inside gets chilled it would be disgusting. To be honest, the form is more important than the actual meaning."

Di Renjie is famous for speaking his mind, and his comments are very sharp.

Wang Fan looked at his plate of sweet and sour pork and felt a little amused. The plate was not small this time, but there was a large layer of ice at the bottom, and on top of it was a small pile of meat, estimated to be more than 20 pieces.

If this meat was any other kind of meat, it would be fine, but if it was just ordinary pork sold at this price, Wang Fan felt that if this happened in their Northeast, this store would not survive the next day.

Seeing Zhuo Qianqian's lack of interest after picking up a piece, Wang Fan no longer had any illusions about the plate of sweet and sour pork, which looked pretty good.

Di Renjie looked at Wang Fan at this time and asked with a smile, "Boss Wang also ordered sweet and sour pork. Do you want to tell us about this dish?"

Wang Fan said: "The outer skin is icy, and the inside is hot. The texture of the crispy skin is pretty good. This temperature change in taste is quite novel."

Di Renjie laughed heartily. "I didn't expect Boss Wang to have such high EQ at such a young age. You've already highlighted all the good points of this dish, and I'm afraid the rest aren't good at all."

Wang Fan shrugged and said nothing more, mainly because he really didn't know what to say anymore. As Di Renjie said, if he continued talking, he would only find a bunch of shortcomings.

Wang Fan felt that this trip to Taotaoju could be summed up as coming with high hopes but leaving disappointed.

He didn't have much expectations for the rest of the dishes. If the signature dishes were like this, how good could the others be?

It was at this time that Wang Fan truly understood why more and more people now hate those so-called Internet celebrities and Internet celebrity stores.

The packaging and gimmicks are really too big, but the actual product is completely unworthy of the packaging and gimmicks.

It’s like the person you’re chatting with online is Dilraba Dilmurat, but when you meet him/her in person, he/she turns out to be Malzahar. That feeling of disparity is really unacceptable.

I think I should not admit that I am an internet celebrity. I can’t afford to lose face!
Wang Fan thought silently in his heart.

His first visit to a century-old shop ended abruptly. Anyway, if a fan asked him what he thought of this shop, he could only say: "It's okay, but it's not worth going there specifically. There are so many shops that can make this kind of taste, and it doesn't even have any obvious advantages compared to those on the street."
