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

Upon hearing the order, Xu Zhou began preparing the other dishes: "We don't have sukiyaki rice bowls today, so we've replaced them with Chariabin steak."

"Both of them are available."

"Oh? Then I'll have rice with tea too."

At least tea-soaked rice has soup in it.

It would be perfect to pair with the Charité steak set meal.

Xu Zhou nodded: "Okay, right away."

I prepared the tea-soaked rice and grilled mackerel with cabbage puree myself last night in the system's food preparation room.

In the system's food preparation room, the longer you stay, the less energy you expend once you get used to it.

Even if you stay inside for a long time, you don't feel tired or exhausted.

Even Xu Zhou himself didn't know why; perhaps it was because he was born with the "Liver King's Sacred Body."

The food was served very quickly.

"The tea-soaked rice is ready."

"Grilled mackerel with cabbage puree is ready."

Xu Zhou placed the dishes on the table.

They very conscientiously came over and took the food to the table to eat.

...

When Liu Feng's team members gently picked up a piece of fish with their chopsticks and swallowed it, they then cut open a piece of steak and ate it with a lot of onion and garlic sauce and rice.

That moment.

The pungent smell of onions and minced garlic immediately dilated their pupils, stimulating their previously lethargic spirits and energizing them.

The beef was so tender that it melted in your mouth like fish, even without biting it.

But the difference is...

When fish is served with smooth and delicate cabbage puree, it has an extremely fresh and sweet taste, just like feeling the sea breeze.

The delicate texture of the meat and the smooth, creamy cabbage and yam puree were so delicious that they made my whole body feel relaxed.

Take a taste.

While taking another big bite of Chariabin steak, although the steak itself wasn't as delicate as the grilled mackerel with cabbage puree, the aroma of onions and minced garlic alone was enough to stimulate the senses.

"The onion and minced garlic are sautéed until fragrant, and they even seem to have a slightly sweet taste..."

"The beef is so tender."

"It melted in my mouth."

It doesn't have much fat, and the texture is completely different from the ribeye cut, but the beef is still seared in butter until it's caramelized, and even the sauce has a caramelized flavor.

"This is delicious!"

"It's much better than the beef bowl at the place downstairs."

...

Although the beef bowl downstairs is also a 45 yuan set meal, it is not as good as the one at Xiao Xu's shop in terms of taste or quality.

The person next to me who ordered ochazuke (rice with tea) took a sip of salted seaweed tea after finishing their Chariabin steak.

The taste buds, awakened by the minced onions and garlic, fully appreciated the sweet and savory flavor of the salmon oil in the salted seaweed tea soup.

Take one bite.

The light tea soup had a rich fish oil flavor left from roasting.

As the tea soup glides down your throat, your taste buds, which have been opened up, are completely enveloped by this fresh and warm tea soup.

It felt so comfortable that my entire scalp tingled.

It’s delicious.

Xu Zhou truly lives up to his name...

A customer nearby couldn't help but sigh deeply: "That's how the bottom line is broken step by step."

"I originally came to buy the 45 yuan set meal, but I didn't expect the other dishes in this restaurant to be so delicious..."

Boss Xu is still Boss Xu after all!

The food they serve is truly exceptional!

...

Xu Zhou looked at the people in the shop and felt a little gratified.

Today, the dish of grilled mackerel with mashed cabbage sold out in just one lunch break.

The wish value for this dish had already reached 8850, just a little over a thousand more wish values ​​away from leveling up to level four.

Once the recipe is upgraded to level four, the cost of the ingredients for this dish can be reduced to 112 yuan.

Xu Kai and his group waited until there weren't many people left before they happily came to the restaurant to order barbecue.

"Boss Xu, ten servings of barbecue."

"You each ordered a three-person portion? Are you sure you can finish it?"

Xu Zhou looked at the dozen or so people and asked curiously, "Aren't you all tired of eating three plates each?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Kai immediately shook his head: "How could I possibly get tired of it! Let alone three plates, I could eat five plates by myself."

If you eat less staple food and only eat meat with alcohol, you can only feel just satisfied after eating a set meal by yourself.

"Row."

Xu Zhou started grilling the meat.

As soon as the top-grade A5 meat from Food Wars! begins to grill, the entire restaurant is filled with its irresistible aroma.

"fragrant!"

"It smells so good! This grilled meat is amazing!"

Every time diners smell it, they find the irresistible aroma of the roasted meat utterly irresistible.

They were all like cats that had inhaled catnip, seemingly intoxicated by the aroma of the barbecue.

Just now.

There was a sudden noise outside.

Chapter 135 This tea-soaked rice really tastes better than rice soaked in soup!

Xu Zhou naturally had no time to pay attention to the commotion outside the door.

However, some customers with sharp ears still heard the voices outside the door.

"After we finish eating the ochazuke and taking the photos, we'll have to describe in detail the unpleasant taste."

"This ochazuke has already lost to Chef Chen's soup ochazuke, and the owner is still trying to hype it up. That's too much!"

The person speaking is a fan of Yicai Yifan (a popular online food platform).

The post Xu Zhou made on the Songnan Food Association app homepage yesterday clearly had an effect.

That was a time when everyone was paying attention, and many fans of Yi Cai Yi Fan (a popular Chinese food blogger) were already feeling resentful when they saw that tea-soaked rice had won the vote over soup-soaked rice.

They saw that yesterday, when Tangpaofan was about to win an award, Xu Zhou still posted that kind of update.

This is practically a declaration of war!

There are many fans of the rice soup, but they are fans who have followed that restaurant from one star to eight stars.

I can't stand this.

...

A large group of people entered, and upon entering, they saw Xu Zhou cutting barbecue. They glanced over casually, and were immediately stunned.

"My grass!"

"This barbecue..."

A plate of roasted meat, roasted to a cherry red color, still dripping with juicy fat, and with a layer of brown charred edges, is arranged in the shape of a flower. It is not only beautiful, but also smells so delicious that it makes your legs weak.

"This...smells kind of delicious."

"This roasted meat is roasted to a cherry red color, what would it feel like to take a bite?"

"Look at the meat, the juices are so good... it looks like it's about to ooze out. The juices and fat are mixed together, it must taste delicious."

The fans who had come over for a meal swallowed hard, their mouths watering at the aroma. They were completely captivated by the smell until Xu Kai and his friends happily carried the barbecue away. Only then did they manage to resist turning around and remember why they had come all this way.

A subtle mix of guilt and confusion welled up inside them, and a thought surfaced in their minds.

Damn!

Is this tea-soaked rice really tastier than rice soaked in soup?

Ten people walked up in a daze to order: "One serving of ochazuke (rice with tea)!"

"There are ten of us, so we'll have ten servings of ochazuke (rice with tea)!"

"What flavor?"

What kind of flavor do you like?

The fans at Yicai Yifan kept a straight face, trying their best to act like normal customers.

Xu Zhou said calmly, "Salmon has a stronger flavor, while mackerel has a lighter and more elegant flavor."

"Mackerel? There isn't even a single dish of fresh mackerel. The ingredients are really hard to find... I'd like a mackerel rice porridge!"

"Then I'll have the salmon!"

Hearing these fans subconsciously mention "one dish and one meal," Xu Zhou glanced at them.

Oops.

Good guy.

A fan of One Dish One Rice?

Xu Zhou couldn't help but smile. "Very good. Your fans are very loyal. They even came here to check in."

I love fans who are protective of their friends the most.

So your fans will be mine in a bit.

...

Xu Zhou quickly picked up the small teapot and began pouring tea.

The salmon and rice were prepared yesterday in the system's food preparation room.

The teapot is poured over the tea, and scalding hot tea flows from the spout.

The light-colored tea soup was steaming hot, and after the white rice was submerged in the tea soup, the salmon meat inside was faintly visible.

The salmon skin was clearly seared with a blowtorch, and when the boiling tea was poured over it, just the right amount of fish oil floated to the surface.

The clear tea soup has a hint of fish oil, but it's just right. Just by looking at it, you can tell it's a top-notch flavor.

The salmon meat has distinct textures, and when mixed with rice, the rice looks like a snow-capped mountain.

This small bowl in front of me not only looks appealing, but it even smells like salted seaweed.

"This……"

"Hey Rice Bro, I have a feeling this place's ochazuke (rice with tea) is actually pretty good. Aren't you studying to be a chef? Tell me what you think!"

One fan couldn't hold back any longer; he had been shaken up and down ever since he entered the room.

Although they weren't trained to be chefs.

But that roasted meat, every single slice of it was a uniform cherry red color.

If you didn't have the skill, could you bake it so evenly?
