Have you ever seen glowing food? That's why you draw a food-themed anime.

"The shop owner is Xu Zhou! Xu Zhou is a culinary master, even better than the teachers at Songbei Culinary Academy! I'm telling you."

The sound was very loud.

He even showed off his university badge to demonstrate the truthfulness of his words.

...

The culinary students started lining up.

Xu Zhou prepared the food incredibly quickly, placing each meal in front of him almost instantly.

"Your sukiyaki set meal."

"Your sukiyaki set meal and grilled mackerel with cabbage puree."

"We're out of sukiyaki, but we still have other dishes. You can try the fried steak."

After the sukiyaki sold out.

Fried steaks are also decreasing rapidly.

Upon seeing the golden-brown fried steak, even though he was already full, the enthusiastic Old Wang secretly joined the queue again.

After you're in line.

Seeing the steaming hot fried steak, I swallowed hard.

"This color..."

His favorite foods are French fries and fried pork chops, which he enjoys even in expensive Western restaurants.

This is the first time I've ever seen something fried to such a golden color, with a crispy crust that even has a hint of nut and cheese aroma.

He couldn't wait to poke it gently with his fork, and the sizzling sound of the crispy outer shell cracking immediately whetted his appetite.

"This is so crispy..."

Even the hot-blooded old man was dumbfounded.

He doesn't eat sukiyaki very often, and he doesn't know the authority of Xu Zhou's sukiyaki, but he eats fried chicken wings and French fries all the time...

The fried steak in this fried steak set meal, which costs over 100 yuan, has such a perfect batter...

Is this right?

...

The hot-blooded old Wang carefully used his fork to put a piece of fried steak into his mouth.

When biting open the fried coating.

The outer layer of the batter was incredibly crispy, but the inner layer stuck together with the beef fat.

The outer shell is dry and crispy, while the inside is full of juice. When you bite into it gently, the crispy outer shell crumbles on your tongue.

The enthusiastic Old Wang immediately tasted the milky and nutty aroma inside the crispy fried crust, and the satisfying and mellow flavor instantly enveloped his taste buds.

Then comes the perfect meaty texture, completely different from thin slices of beef rolls; one bite fills your mouth with tender, juicy meat.

It was so delicious that he was completely stunned.

...

Perhaps others don't understand what level of skill this requires.

Old Wang, who often fries chicken wings at home, knows very well what's going on.

Excessive surface moisture often results in a soft and collapsed outer shell after frying.

If the heat is not right, the outer shell will burn while the meat inside remains uncooked.

Either the juices are lost and the meat becomes tough.

To achieve such a perfect appearance, what level of skill does Xu Zhou possess?

...

When he paid the bill and left the store, the enthusiastic Lao Wang was still not recovered from the wonderful taste of the food.

The taste lingers on my tongue, as if I can still feel the warmth of the beef broth.

When he got home, the hot-blooded Old Wang kept thinking about the dishes Xu Zhou had made.

I searched for takeout but couldn't find anything.

I could only silently open the Food Wars! manga.

I don't know if it was because I was hungry or for some other reason.

This time.

I actually got engrossed in this comic book.

...

night.

There was no new episode of "Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma" today, so Jiang Ling'er could only reluctantly put down the manga after reading it several times, and prepare to discuss it in the reader group.

My phone buzzed with a bunch of new message notifications.

I looked down and was shocked.

Suddenly, Old Wang, a passionate individual, appeared in the readers' group and started arguing wildly.

The reason is that a reader in a reader group commented on the latest chapter with a recipe, which left the reader speechless.

[11 Love Comics: The latest chapter's recipe is outrageous! Four pounds of Wagyu beef pan-fried? I'm speechless.]

Then some people started making fun of it.

[Matsuko: I doubt many people are reading this book for the recipes.]

[Big Wave: This recipe doesn't look professional at all; it's definitely one of the worst things to see in a food anime. I think he should consult a professional chef instead of just drawing it himself.]

However, since everything else is so perfect, I could close my eyes and still accept a terrible recipe.

The comic fans who said this are all big spenders who have tipped the comic over 10,000 book coins.

...

Old Wang, a passionate new fan of Xu Zhou's shop, was unhappy.

[Hot-blooded Old Wang: Don't talk nonsense, okay? This cartoonist Xiao Xu's recipes are amazing. The dishes she replicates are incredibly delicious. This recipe book is definitely reliable.]

The reason this excellent recipe went unnoticed is because the cartoonist was so suggestive. If they hadn't been so suggestive, you would definitely know how amazing this recipe is.

He just said that one sentence, and the comic fans in the group were completely confused.

Not a brother?

Why are you so unconventional?

So I replied with a string of "?"

Then they started arguing while they were talking, and the topic of their argument was quite absurd.

They were arguing wildly about whether the cartoonist Xiao Xu's recipes or her storylines and comics were better.

At last.

The hot-blooded Lao Wang angrily took a screenshot in the group.

[Hot-blooded Old Wang: I didn't know? How could I not know? I just finished eating! Someone has recreated the dishes of cartoonist Xiao Xu! And they're incredibly delicious!]

This restaurant has limited capacity, and many people come to eat there every day. However, it's not very well-known yet.

But the fact that this flavor can be replicated proves the recipe's excellence!

I didn't originally intend to post about the limited edition items at Xu Zhou's store in the group chat.

But at that moment, my mind went blank and I couldn't help myself.

The group members in the comic book chat glanced at the name.

Ipfun Izakaya?

I opened the recipe again and took another look.

[Specialty Dishes: Imitation Grilled Meat, Beef Stew in Burgundy Red Wine.]

[Specialty Dishes: Fried Beef Steak Rice Bowl, Sukiyaki Rice Bowl, Grilled Mackerel with Cabbage Puree.]

"..."

Good guy!

They look exactly the same!

...

When Xu Zhou was closing up shop and heading home that evening, he saw what was happening in the comic book fan group and naturally noticed the message posted by the passionate Lao Wang.

Many people tagged him in the group, saying that someone had opened a shop based on his comic book recipes, and they were quite indignant.

With so many comments every day, the earlier news about the Ichizuru Izakaya recipe has long been buried.

Flip it up.

Xu Zhou was amused when he saw that they had been arguing for hours about whether the recipes or the plot and the borderline elements were more powerful in Food Wars!

"It seems that no one can stand the recipe for four pounds of Wagyu beef."

"No wonder it's rising so slowly..."

He glanced at it when he had a spare moment.

【Roasted Meat (roti) Rice Bowl: 28/100 (1)】

"..."

Looking at the pitifully low number of wish points, Xu Zhou couldn't help but twitch his lips.

This is the slowest I've ever seen before.

It seems everyone really thinks the idea of ​​pan-frying four pounds of Wagyu beef in this comic is outrageous.

...

Xu Zhou shared the recipe with his regular customers without hesitation.

Then it also came with a whole bunch of information about A5 beef.

[Xu Zhou: Next big dish preview. It uses A5 grade Wagyu beef. After being grilled at a high temperature, the marbling of the Wagyu fat melts during the grilling process, and the oily beef juices mix with the oil to coat the whole slice of beef.]

Unlike the thinly sliced ​​beef in sukiyaki, this beef is much more juicy and melts in your mouth...

They even added a picture from a comic book.

Most of the people in the group have eaten sukiyaki rice bowls.

The perfect balance of fat and meaty aroma, the overflowing sweet and savory flavor of the beef, the sensation of the juices bursting in your mouth with every gentle bite...

That's enough for them to imagine how delicious the dish is.

[Xu Kai: I can't take it anymore! I want a late-night snack... Boss Xu, you've made me hungry.]

[CaiCai: So many slices of A5 Wagyu beef, it looks expensive, I can't afford it!!!]

[CaiCai: Anyone want to chip in and each person can try one?]

Everyone immediately started screaming.

...

Xu Zhou immediately felt the effects.

【烤肉（roti）盖饭菜谱祈愿值+1+1+1+1+1……】

Everyone was yelling and screaming.

I felt instantly satisfied.

I turned on my computer, ready to continue working on my comics.

After all, the food battle between Meat Charm and Little Red Hair wasn't over yet, and Little Red Hair's Chariabin steak hadn't even made its appearance.

"This steak is also a working person's lunch."
