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

Xu Zhou quickly decided on the recipe.

"It just so happens that it's my aunt's birthday today, so I'll make a bowl of... light salted seaweed and salmon soup noodles."

"But you'll have to wait here for a while, I need to go get some ingredients."

He paused, then glanced at the relatives behind him: "Who wants to eat? You can sign up now."

"But there's no discount."

It's a bit of a shame that there's no discount.

But the relatives who hadn't had enough beef suddenly brightened up.

I get to eat Xiaozhou's food again!

Very self-aware: "How much?"

"We're all elders, of course we won't shortchange you." Everyone patted their chests reassuringly.

"Yes, even though it's too expensive to afford, it's still worth supporting Xiaozhou's business today."

"Xiao Zhou's cooking skills are so good, she could have been specially recruited as a culinary instructor. Everything in the restaurant must be delicious!"

"The menu...I see it!"

Some clever people have already gone to search for the menu.

When they saw the menu and prices, someone read them out one by one.

"Today's menu at Xiaozhou Restaurant features beef stew in Burgundy red wine for 12,800 yuan and a replica roast meat dish for 1,888 yuan."

"Our specialty is grilled mackerel with cabbage puree... Sukiyaki and fried beef steak rice bowls are sold out."

The person who finished reading immediately ordered grilled mackerel with cabbage puree.

Other relatives also placed orders.

...

After noting down the number of orders they placed, Xu Zhou added a few more words.

"But today I'm making a special birthday noodle dish: salmon salt seaweed tea soup."

"The price is 121 yuan per bowl, and the portion is not large."

After saying that, he looked at the old man with an expectant look on his face and said, "If you like fish, you can also try grilled mackerel with cabbage puree. It's good for your stomach and light."

"The cabbage puree inside contains yam puree, making it light and sweet."

Upon hearing the word "sweet," the girl on the other end reacted again, her nose catching the aroma of beef, as if her entire nervous system was on fire.

For the first time, I felt hungry.

"Okay! Sweet! I like sweet!"

The old man was overjoyed and nodded quickly: "Fish is good, fish is good, I'll have one of each!"

...

Xu Zhou's shop is not far from here.

When they drove to pick up the things, Jiang Mingzhu and the others were waiting downstairs, and even the kitchen counter upstairs was ready.

After the ingredients were laid out, and Xu Zhou put on his chef's uniform, mask, and gloves, everyone felt a surge of excitement.

It feels very ceremonial!

Xiao Zhou looks completely different in the chef's uniform!

When Xu Zhou took out the ingredients and started cooking on the spot, everyone was stunned.

The salmon meat that was taken out looked orange-red under the light.

The fish looked incredibly fresh, and it smelled not only not fishy at all, but also had a faint milky aroma.

"This is... a king salmon!"

The old man's eyes widened in surprise as he peered closer at Xu Zhou heating the oil to fry the meat, exclaiming, "Such fresh king salmon?"

King salmon meat isn't cheap!

"Yeah, that's right."

Xu Zhou placed the king salmon fillets on a pan and started frying them, using high heat and a blowtorch to render out all the oil from the surface of the fillets.

In an instant, the entire room was filled with the aroma of salmon fat being fiercely roasted by a blowtorch, a rich yet sweet milky scent that effortlessly whetted one's appetite.

Xu Zhou, who was grilling fish, was clearly more adept at grilling meat after learning how to grill beef.

At this moment, the movements of those holding the blowtorch and grilling the fish were so fluid that they resembled a skillful performance.

The relatives around were all stunned.

He subconsciously swallowed hard.

It smells delicious.

want to eat.

...

After grilling the fish, Xu Zhou placed the cooked noodles into a bowl.

I made a large bowl of noodles following the recipe for ochazuke (rice with tea).

The salmon fat gradually forms fish oil on the surface, and the ramen is gently drizzled with salted kelp and genmaicha broth.

Each noodle stretched out.

The portion of a bowl is not large, but it looks incredibly tempting.

Although the noodles are made by the chef of Jiangweifang, the kelp and other ingredients are all sourced from their own shop.

Tea-soaked rice is delicious.

Salted seaweed noodle soup shouldn't be too bad either.

...

Everyone stared intently at Xu Zhou.

His movements were as smooth as flowing water.

Even laymen could see his relaxed and calm expression while he was handling the situation.

That's the kind of look that comes from someone who is completely confident in their cooking.

He was also enjoying the process.

The whole aura was completely different from usual. The child I watched grow up had such a powerful and confident aura when cooking!

The relatives sighed inwardly.

Xiao Zhou's cooking skills are amazing!

This is definitely going to make a lot of money!

...

When the two bowls of noodles were placed in front of the birthday boy, Xu Zhou smiled and said, "Try it. This is the first time I've made noodles this way."

"I used to make ochazuke (rice with tea)."

This is indeed my first time eating tea-infused noodles.

But specifically...

Rice and noodles are actually not that different in nature.

"Salmon flavor..."

The girl, who was so thin she was barely recognizable, should have been uninterested in the bowl of bland noodles in front of her.

At other times, she wouldn't even glance at it twice.

But when she smelled the aroma of salted seaweed and salmon, as well as the fragrance of beef next to it, her stomach rumbled, and she couldn't help but pick up the bowl and take a small sip of soup.

The soup has a very rich flavor, yet it is light and not greasy.

The soup, however, has a distinct sweet and savory flavor from the salmon and the deep sea.

One sip of soup warmed my entire stomach, and my tense mind gradually relaxed because of its exquisite taste.

"good to eat."

The girl scooped up another piece of fish and carefully put it in her mouth.

The entire surface of the fish has an aroma that comes from being grilled with a blowtorch.

When you gently bite into it, the aroma of salmon fills your mouth instantly. The fish is not only tender, but also has a creamy flavor when you bite into it.

Fish also has a superior flavor that only top-quality ingredients and deep-sea fish can bring.

The fish meat was soft, bouncy, and smooth. As you bit into it, the fish meat, along with the light salty seaweed tea soup, completely melted in your mouth.

She eats slowly.

But it didn't stop.

The elderly man beside him stared intently, his eyes filled with joy and emotion.

...

The extremely thin girl in front of me gently picked up a noodle with her chopsticks and took another bite, her eyes brightening even more.

The noodles have absorbed all the broth from the salted kelp; the essence of the kelp has been fully absorbed by the noodles.

Take one bite.

The noodles have just the right amount of chewiness, and when you bite into them, the fish juice and tea broth are soaked into every strand.

It's so delicious you could swallow your tongue.

The girl ate faster and faster, even though she was already quite full after finishing a bowl of noodles.

But when she tasted the mashed yam in the cabbage and then the cream inside, she suddenly looked up.

“The cream is so sweet.”

"I love cream."

Chapter 115 June VIP Registration

Not only the young girl, but even the relatives felt dizzy after eating.

Grilled mackerel with cabbage puree.

With one bite, it's as if all the ingredients of spring are radiating their essence on your lips.

The freshness and the perfect blend of flavors left everyone completely mesmerized.

Xu Zhou's cooking skills seem to be even better than they imagined.

The relatives looked over at that moment.

Xu Zhou was chatting with Jiang Mingzhu, and the owner of the Six Star Gourmet Restaurant was like a little fan in front of Xu Zhou.

"Can't I book today?"

She looked on expectantly: "Boss, you're only offering ten servings of your new dish tomorrow. What if I can't get one?"

At this moment, Jiang Mingzhu couldn't help but think of that time she had brushed past the VIP, and felt heartbroken and full of regret.

I should have just signed up for VIP back then.

There wouldn't be so many things happening today.

...

The thought of VIP made Jiang Mingzhu realize that it was already June, and she instantly became excited again.

It's June!

"Boss, don't you give away one VIP per month?"

When does registration begin?
