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

Chapter 477 - A strong man in his life
Powell has put away all his contempt.

He has been to many Chinese restaurants in Europe, but those restaurants really have nothing to do with Michelin. It’s not that he looks at them with tinted glasses. He still likes Chinese culture very much.

But I don’t know if those restaurants have changed too much because they are trying too hard to cater to local conditions. There is no need to apply their scientific formulas to Michelin. You can tell at first glance that they are incompatible with their evaluation standards.

Cheap, noisy, simple dishes, really don't have any Michelin genes.

But the dishes made by the person in front of me are different.

Not only are the shapes exquisite and sophisticated, the taste is also impeccable. Most importantly, each of these dishes has such a long history, and some even have very interesting stories.

This is very Michelin!

If the chef of this restaurant was this young man today, he really wouldn't mind rating this two-star restaurant as three stars this year.

Powell looked at Professor Liu and said, "I heard from Allen that you know the chef here today?"

Professor Liu nodded: "He is my student's boyfriend."

Powell said, "I think you could consider convincing him to open a restaurant, decorating it to the standards of this restaurant. I'll definitely apply to headquarters and have our undercover team go for a food tasting. I'm sure with his cooking skills, a three-star rating is a no-brainer. As for the number of forks and spoons, we'll decide based on the restaurant's ambiance."

After saying that, he turned to look at Allen and said, "Old buddy, you can also consider hiring him to be the head chef of your restaurant. I will recommend him to you for a three-star rating this year."

Professor Liu shook his head. "From what I understand, it's difficult for him to stay in one place, let alone cook according to the rules. He simply wants to prove that Chinese food isn't that bad because the media has been smearing it so heavily. He doesn't really value your Star Awarding."

Powell was surprised and asked, "Doesn't he know the effect of our Michelin star award?"

With the current authority of Michelin, as long as a hotel is given stars, a huge influx of customers will follow. The more stars a hotel has, the more customers it will attract.

One star is for a restaurant that stands out in its category, two stars for outstanding cuisine worth a detour, and three stars for dishes so exceptional they are worth a special trip.

Even if it is as far away as China, there will be many people coming here to visit, and the flow of visitors means income.

Professor Liu shook his head and didn't explain further.

Although she had not been in contact with Wang Fan for a long time, she felt that she knew this young man very well.

Like most young people, this is a person who can't stand being bound by too many rules and regulations.

Many young people have a heart that yearns for freedom, but some people have to change themselves because they are bound by reality. But with Wang Fan's level now, reality can no longer restrain him. He is now a wild donkey that has broken free from its reins. Do you still want to keep him in one place and make him cook honestly?
Don't even think about it!
Absolutely impossible!

If Wang Fan knew what Professor Liu was thinking, he would definitely regard him as a close friend. He really knows him too well.

There are not many river shrimps in the small bowl, which fully reflects the essence of French cuisine.

Soon Powell and his friends had finished their meal. After feeling the last shrimp burst in his mouth, Powell actually felt a little disappointed.

Then when I saw the green tea decoration, my eyes lit up again.

He has the habit of drinking tea. Black tea, green tea and coffee take turns to be the main ingredients of his afternoon tea. However, in all these years, he has never seen such green tea.

This tea must be a high-end product from the Mysterious East that's not sold to the public! The chef said this simply because he was afraid that he and others would have to ask for it after they finished eating it, and he couldn't bear to part with it!
Powell felt as if he had stumbled upon the truth.

Then I must taste this tea to see how it tastes.

Powell chuckled and suddenly noticed a strange gaze. He looked up and found that Alan was also looking at him with a smirk on his face.

Oh, that's when great minds think alike. It seems Alan has also discovered the truth.

Professor Liu looked at the two smirking people with a nonchalant expression, but her heart was already filled with anticipation. She was eagerly anticipating the expressions of the two foreigners, who couldn't afford to be wronged, as they devoured a petal of small-leaf bitter gourd.

Well... No, I hope the two of us can get rid of the internal heat. It's not good for the body to have too much heat when you get older.

Small-leaf kuding, also known as Qingshan Lushui, is a type of kuding tea. It primarily grows in the jungles deep in the mountains of Yunlian County, Sichuan Province. It lacks the intense bitterness of large-leaf kuding and has a hint of the sweetness of green tea.

Small-leaf bitter clove has the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying, improving eyesight and clearing the liver, benefiting the throat and moistening the lungs, etc. Therefore, many tea lovers regard it more as a natural health drink rather than traditional tea.

Of course, since it is Kuding tea, it is definitely bitter. As for the slight sweetness, it is just an illusion in the mouth, a kind of "contrast effect".

Although this small-leaf bitter gourd is very bitter, it has a special characteristic.

When dry, the appearance is curled and tender, just like ordinary tea leaves, but when brewed with hot water, the tea leaves will instantly stretch out at the bottom of the water, and the clear green leaves are like the most moist jade.

But that doesn't affect how bitter it is.

Powell and Allen picked up the tea leaves at the bottom of the bowl almost at the same time.

When you get close to them, the emerald green shoots look as fresh as if they are alive and look very high-end.

The two of them even made a toasting gesture in tacit understanding, and then put the wine in their mouths almost at the same time.

Hmm...fresh and rich tea aroma!

As soon as the tea leaves entered their mouths, the rich aroma of the tea filled their mouths, making Allen and Powell's eyes light up.

It is indeed a good tea. I have never tasted tea with such a strong aroma before.

The two were very pleased with their cleverness.

Fortunately, I didn’t listen to the chef, otherwise I would have missed such good tea.

chew……

In an instant, Powell's teeth began cutting the tea leaves while Allen was still savoring the refreshing fragrance.

But just as his teeth had begun to crush the tea leaves, he stopped completely.

He felt as if someone had stuffed a ton of coffee beans into his mouth at that moment.

It’s so painful, it makes me feel like scratching my head!
Powell felt as if an electric current was running through his body.

He used all his strength to hold back so that his facial features would not be squeezed together.

Alan asked curiously, "How does it feel?"

He had just tasted the tea and hadn't had time to chew it.

Powell didn't say anything, just nodded slightly with an approval look on his face.

Professor Liu turned his face away, afraid that he would laugh out loud. He never thought that Powell, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, would play such a trick to drag others into the water.

Alan began to chew in anticipation, and then in an instant his facial features were squeezed together.
