Chapter 1434: Let’s eat first as a form of respect
It’s illegal to eat people …
That was Gabriel’s second reaction.
By the time Gabriel pulled his thoughts back from the wild horse, he finally roughly understood what Zhou Jia meant.
“No, no, no. I mean, are there any special dishes, the kind that can be eaten?” Gabriel made a gesture of eating, emphasizing the word “edible.”
“This is our menu. You can eat everything here. They’re all specialties.” This time, Zhou Jia didn’t say anything else, but just pointed at the menu on the table and said.
The menu had already been reformed under Yuan Zhou’s suggestion. Now, the menu was in Chinese and English.
After all, Yuan Zhou had said that he was considered to be international now. It would be more convenient for foreigners to order the dishes if he added an English menu.
Therefore, the system naturally agreed to this reasonable request. The new menu was settled in one night.
The menu system’s modification was also very interesting. The menu on the wall behind Yuan Zhou’s back was obviously rich in Chinese style, but the system didn’t modify it. On the menu, however, English Notes of the restaurant’s rules were added.
That was why Zhou Jia pointed at the menu and showed it to Gabriel.
“Oh, alright.” Gabriel couldn’t help but shrug. He then opened the menu on the table and began to read.
Speaking of which, Yuan Zhou’s English level should be similar to that of the current kindergartens. Therefore, he actually didn’t know how the system translated the names of some dishes. However, it didn’t affect him from understanding what others ordered. Therefore, Yuan Zhou didn’t really care about it.
No one knew how Gabriel Read the menu. He pointed at the bamboo chicken in Yunnan cuisine and then said to Zhou Jia,””This one, this one, and this one.”
That’s right, Gabriel ordered three dishes in one go, and all three of them were bamboo-related.
He must have thought that the pandas in China loved to eat delicious food.
There was a ha ni chicken in bamboo tubes, bamboo rice, and a wrapped duck in bamboo strips. The three dishes were all meat except for the rice.
“Okay. We pay the bill first and then eat. You have to pay us dollars.” Zhou Jia explained patiently.
“Alright,” he said. Gabriel paid the same amount of US dollars. He knew this at the bank, so he did not ask.
“Please wait for a moment. Your food will be served immediately.” After saying that, Zhou Jia nodded her head politely and then left.
Gabriel, on the other hand, didn’t stay idle. He took out his phone and started to record it secretly while staring at Yuan Zhou.
Gabriel’s actions did not attract anyone’s attention, because there were many more people in the shop who were more exaggerated than him.
For example, two or three seats away from him, a girl was supporting her chin with her hands and looking at Yuan Zhou without blinking. There was also a young man who was looking at Yuan Zhou sneakily.
This person’s occupation was probably the same as Gabriel ‘s, a chef. However, it seemed like this person was here to steal the technique.
As a result, master Cheng, who was standing at the side and watching Yuan Zhou’s craftsmanship, glared at the young man from time to time and then looked at him seriously when Yuan Zhou was cooking.
Obviously, Yuan Zhou didn’t care about that. After all, Yuan Zhou’s culinary skills were there for all to see. People who weren’t of the same class as him wouldn’t be able to understand his purpose of doing so. Besides, how could one learn a craft by peeking at it a few times?
“Chicken wrapped in bamboo? I don’t know how he did it. ” Gabriel looked at Yuan Zhou in the kitchen curiously, waiting for him to start cooking this dish.
Yes, from the system’s translation, Gabriel understood the meaning of bamboo chicken.
Just like what Zhou Jia had said, Yuan Zhou had already started to take out the bamboo tube chicken from the charcoal fire at the side.
After all, the bamboo chicken was a dish that needed to be prepared in advance, because it needed to be cooked with authentic chestnut charcoal for two hours before the bamboo chicken was cooked.
This bamboo chicken was actually very particular. Not to mention other things, just the chestnut charcoal used to cook it required two hours of cooking using chestnut tree branches.
The reason why it was burned was that the fire of chestnut charcoal was large, the texture was hard and resistant to fire, and the finished product was also beautifully shaped.
The bamboo used to hold the chicken couldn’t be sloppy. It needed to be a year old bamboo, and then the thickest bamboo tube was used to make the chicken.
If Gabriel had come in time, he would have been able to see Yuan Zhou eating the bamboo.
The system provided living bamboo. Fortunately, the system took into account the small space of the store, so it provided the thick living bamboo that was cultivated in the water.
It was a half-meter long, 20 centimeters in diameter, verdant bamboo. The distance between the bamboo joints was long, and the middle part was straight to the outside. The broken part emitted a light bamboo fragrance.
In order to ensure that the bamboo’s fragrance didn’t leak out, only 20 centimeters in the middle was enough for this half-meter long bamboo.
The bamboo used was also the annual bamboo from Dian province, which was recognized as the origin of bamboo plants and one of the modern distribution centers in the world. It had the reputation of being the “hometown of bamboo”, and its species of bamboo was also the best in the country.
It was because the soil there was very suitable for the growth of bamboo.
The supplementary ingredients of these bamboo chickens were so exquisite, and the chicken as the main ingredient was even more different. The choice was the famous local chicken breed in Dian province, nisi chicken.
In the system’s words, this chicken was extraordinary.
At that time, Yuan Zhou subconsciously asked how to be born extraordinary and then was forced to visit the growth process of a chicken again.
Fortunately, after the baptism of various chickens, pigs, and cows, Yuan Zhou calmly looked at the system brushing up the rearing rules of the Nishi chicken in his mind.
“Just treat it as learning how to raise the Nishi chicken.” Yuan Zhou consoled himself.
However, he still looked at it very seriously. After all, understanding one’s own ingredients was also the standard of a good chef.
The system displayed,”this chicken is mainly produced in Nixi District, Zhongdian County, Dian province. However, it was recorded as a Tibetan chicken. The actual results are different.”
“The Nishi chicken has a long history. Its fur color is mainly pure black, while the Tibetan chicken is mainly mixed with colors and flowers. The Tibetan chicken’s beak is mostly black, and a few are meat color or yellow. Rainbow colors are mostly orange, followed by chestnut yellow, which is different from the Nishi chicken. ”
“The Nishi chicken lives in high mountains and canyons. The mountain ridges are cut, the river bed is narrow, the river is turbulent, the valley graves are steep, the climate is cold, and the changes in the Four Seasons are not obvious. The system feeds it with the first snow snow snow water as the drinking water, the sweet snow Lotus fruit as the supplementary fruit, and the herbal Snow Lotus flower as the food.”
“This chicken is small in size and has not gone through crossbreeding. Its genes are complete and its feed is pure natural. As it lives in a high-altitude Area, it has a lot of exercise, so its meat is tight and its skeleton is small.”
“The nisi chicken used by the system is a chicken that has been naturally grown for 100 days after it has crowed. The chicken is the most delicious when it has not crowed or laid eggs.”
“Okay, I understand. I’ll cook one for you later.” Yuan Zhou read the introduction calmly and then decided to eat one to calm down.
This was the reaction of Yuan Zhou when he had just waited for the new breed of Nishi chicken.
Looking at the bamboo tube chicken being served, Gabriel had the same thought as Yuan Zhou. Such a fragrant and precious chicken definitely had to be eaten first as a form of respect.
