Sesame Green Bean Garlic

Huo Zian fried the ham out of the oil, put in the matsutake that he just bought from the market, and mixed it with the freshly made spaghetti.Some vegetables from the south are already on the market. The broad beans are freshly peeled and fried with scallion oil. The color is bright and green, and the aroma is tangy.

This is their work dinner.Usually around [-]:[-] pm, several chefs will take turns to be responsible for cooking. This is also the time for them to discuss the dishes and cooking process. Whoever comes up with new ideas will also present them for everyone to comment on at this time.

Huo Zian asked Ouji, "How about these matsutake?"

Oji shook his head: "It's not the best, I know, all the good ones are sold in Japan."

Huo Zian nodded, he also knew that these matsutake were not good enough, but this was already the best quality he could find.Now is the season of black truffles, and he also thought about importing some black truffles from Provence, but now truffles are popular in Chinese restaurants, and the competition to find good quality is very fierce.So he and Oji began to discuss how to add mushrooms from Northeast China and Yunnan to dishes.

When the two were discussing, Wei Guoen suddenly interrupted and said: "Teacher, I think our dishes are good enough, and there are no dissatisfied customers, but the problem is that there are too few customers. This is not an early meal, even if it is a repeat customer , you can’t eat it two or three times a month, don’t you think so?”

Huo Zian nodded and said, "Well, a few tables of regular customers can't support our entire restaurant."

"I just thought, word of mouth snowballs, but at the very beginning, at least there must be enough snow, right? So we still need to find more people to eat and let the word of mouth spread. I have friends who work on the website, and I You can ask him to 'make snow' for us."

Huo Zian was puzzled, "What are you going to do? Tasting, discounts, etc.?"

"No need at all, what a downgrade, they have their own way of operating. It's very simple, just put the information in a conspicuous place."

Huo Zian thought that there are too many doorways on the Internet, and the "simple" things probably have other worlds, so he wanted to refuse.But when I think about it, the long-term business of the restaurant is deserted, which hurts morale; among these few people, You Liangchen doesn't care about it, and Oji has seen the world, and he won't be in a hurry, but Wei Guoen wants to do a "big cause" Yes, must have been hit.If it makes him feel better, then do as he pleases.

So, he complied.He just wanted to appease Wei Guoen, but he never thought of the consequences of this casual remark.

After cleaning in the morning, You Liangchen took the cooked fish from the kitchen and went to the yard to feed the kittens. "Old Tie!" He yelled, and the cat jumped down from the eaves, and jumped in front of You Liangchen in two steps.You Liangchen touched Lao Tie's thick gray short hair, and poured the fish into the food plate.Looking at Lao Tie's body that has grown stronger twice, You Liangchen sighed in his heart, he thought it was a cute little fur ball, but he didn't expect that in less than two months, he would grow into a majestic little bully.There is no way, who made it the only cat in the whole alley that eats deep-sea fish in the Pacific?

He played with Lao Tie for a while, walked out of the alley, and went to the canteen to buy a pack of cigarettes.Someone stopped him at the entrance of the alley: "Brother waiter!"

Looking back from Liangchen, she saw that it was the girl who often came to eat alone.She was riding a bicycle and said with a smile: "Is the door open? I'm coming to eat."

Yu Liangchen said: "The door is always open, you sit by yourself for a while, I will come back after buying a pack of cigarettes."

The girl responded quickly: "Okay, see you later!"

The door was open, and the lights inside were not even turned on. It was quiet and dark.The girl walked into the door, found the button, and lightly pressed it, and the ceiling light, spotlight and wall light lit up one by one.Under the warm yellow light, the wooden tables and chairs look like trees in a secluded forest that has just been exposed to sunlight.There were a few forsythias in the jars, which leaked brilliantly onto the tables; the shelves on the walls were not picture frames or spice bottles like in other restaurants, but small glass jars filled with radishes, onions or green onions, Emerald green seedlings sprouted on the top.

A small gray cat poked its head out from the door leading to the yard, looked arrogantly, and retreated into the yard again.

There was no one there, but this small space made her feel at ease—it was a place where something was quietly and slowly growing.

She is a junior student and usually works in a Chinese fast food restaurant.It's noisy every day, full of sounds and smells, but with the pile of food, the guests are always on their phones, they're there, they're not there.Therefore, she often felt that the fast food restaurant was terribly lonely.

Fast food restaurants throw away a lot of food every day. When she watched the piles of rice and meat dishes poured into the slop bucket, she felt sick and uncomfortable.For a while, she couldn't eat anything, because she was anorexic with fear, and she started looking outside for food.Cheap and expensive, she ate one by one, sometimes happy, sometimes disappointed, but no matter what kind of experience these restaurants gave her, she had to go back to the noisy restaurant full of slop buckets in the end.She spent all the money from her part-time job on food, and she knew in her heart that this kind of adventure would soon end. After all, this was not the world she should have enjoyed.

"Morning," Huo Zian came out of the kitchen and greeted her, only to see that her eyes were moist. "Are you okay?" Zi'an asked.

The girl was taken aback, rubbed her nose quickly, and said with a smile, "Chef, I have something to do. I have been working since five o'clock in the morning, and I don't even have time to drink water. I'm so hungry now!"

"There's lobster today, do you want to try it?"

The girl said cheerfully, "Okay."

She sat for a while, and the oxtail soup was served.The top layer of meringue was poked open, revealing the dark brown soup underneath. The sweetness of the onion rose up, and after a taste, the soup was not as thick as the ones I drank before, but full of the sweetness of plants.The meringue sandwiched green onions, like light scallion pancakes.

The girl inhales the fragrance deeply, feeling satisfied.This is the restaurant she really yearns for. The environment is warm and quiet, like a small stage, with only her and the steaming food on it...

"This restaurant is so small!" Two men and two women came in, and a man shouted to the fat man next to him, "If you sit here, no one else will come in, it's packed to the brim."

The fat man laughed and scolded: "Fuck! Waiter, four people, find us a wider seat."

The stage disappears, the girl's serenity breaks holes and smokes.She took a sip of the oxtail soup, drinking it so fast that she almost choked.

The four sat down noisyly, and one of them, a woman with short hair, asked, "Handsome guy, are you the only waiter?"

"Well," Yu Liangchen answered briefly, and gave them the menu.When the fat man saw the menu, he immediately became anxious, "Hey, it's just this page, and the price is not enough for a hundred words. Hey, crap, 711 has more choices than you."

The short-haired woman said: "This kind of restaurant is like this, expensive and fine but not expensive."

"Don't talk nonsense with him," the other man said with a smile, "Old Zhu, the one who eats the box lunch."

"This price is really enough for me to eat lunch for a month."

After finishing the oxtail soup, Yu Liangchen brought the girl stewed eggs.The stewed eggs are steamed with mushroom soup, the surface is as smooth as a mirror, and fried sakura shrimp mixed with shredded seaweed is served next to it.Cut open the egg custard and found scallops, bamboo shoots and pea puree buried inside.Girls especially like the layout of this restaurant. They never pile the most expensive ingredients on the bright side. The surface is simple and the lines are sharp, like the architectural design of a modern art museum, but the inside always gives people an unexpected warm taste.

"Here it is!" Two more women walked in.

"Is this a Michelin star restaurant?" one of them asked.

There is no Michelin restaurant in Beijing, but You Liangchen knew that they were here for Huo Zian, so he replied casually: "Well, our chef is."

"Hey, it's really hard to find you here. We took the navigation around for half an hour! Maybe the address on the Internet is wrong, change it quickly."

You Liangchen didn't know the address on the Internet, and said, "Just ask where the public toilet on the east side of Gulou Square is. We are diagonally opposite the toilet."

"Really," the woman laughed. "But the address can't write 'opposite the people's public toilet', right? It's so delicious." The two had fun together.

The girl swallowed the custard in one gulp, and suddenly felt that the taste became complicated.

She found it strange that she had visited this restaurant three or four times, but she had never seen so many customers walking in at once.

By the time her main course of lobster arrived, the store was full.You Liangchen deals with more than [-] people by himself, turning around like a top, but he is never in a hurry, he does one thing when he comes up, and it depends on which one he remembers when he comes to ten things, and he doesn't remember to pull it down.

After a while, the restaurant was full of noise, shouting, complaining, chatting and laughing together, it was even more chaotic than a fast food restaurant.

The girl couldn't even swallow the lobster. Hearing the noise one after another, she said to Yu Liangchen, "Uh...do you want to help?"

Yu Liangchen: "No need. Don't you think it's noisy?" Seeing the girl occupying a table alone, attracting attention, he was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable, so he took out his iPod from his pocket and put it in her hand, "I think it's noisy Just listen to music. Sit down and eat."

Upon hearing this tone, the girl smiled and said, "Why do you always treat me like a child?"

You Liangchen smiled and went to work.

Her heart was warm, her face was a little hot, she put the earphones into her ears, looked at You Liangchen's back, and lightly pressed the switch——

With a bang, the electric guitar and drums rushed towards her enthusiastically, and the lightning and thunder sounded like a storm was approaching.As soon as the lead singer opened her mouth, her face turned green. The music is a hundred times louder than the outside, okay? Let alone eating well, she can't even hold a knife and fork steadily!

The girl really couldn't eat anymore.She wiped her mouth and felt that the whole world had changed.Even those carrots with tassels are no longer fresh and pleasant, but punks one by one, combing all kinds of hairstyles, mocking this messy world in glass bottles—those Greasy cabbage, slop buckets, guests drinking iced tea, 711, people's public toilets, she got up at five o'clock, her mind began to become cloudy and heavy, but she was woken up by the roar of rock and roll!

She couldn't stand her favorite restaurant becoming noisy and messy anymore, she stood up, while listening to rock music, grabbed the water bottle in Yu Liangchen's hand and said, "I'll come! You can do other things."

You Liangchen was stunned for a moment, frightened by her aura, and gave her the water bottle.

She straightened her clothes and walked towards the new table of guests.The professionalism cultivated in the fast food restaurant played a role at this time.

The guest asked: "Little girl, besides the menu, can you make me something else?"

"What would you like to eat?"

"Do you have pasta, spaghetti bolognese?"

"No tomato bolognese, but seafood pasta?"

"Ah, all right."

"However, I still suggest that you order lobster. There is only half a lobster in the pasta, and the price is not much different. It is better to eat lobster alone."

"Well, yes."

"I'll give you oxtail soup, plus another 100 yuan, as well as appetizers and desserts."

"Yo, isn't that still the set meal?"

"The set meal is carefully designed by the chef. It is the best ingredients in the season, with balanced nutrition, and it is also the most cost-effective."

"OK then."

With the girl's help, the outfield stabilized a bit, Huo Zian was about to go out to help You Liangchen, but now he was greatly relieved.

Wei Guoen said happily: "Finally the master! Let me tell you, teacher, the Internet propaganda is the most effective."

Huo Zian asked: "These people came here after reading the information on the Internet? No wonder there are so many people all of a sudden."

"For sure, it was released yesterday afternoon. You can see the effect, it's really immediate." He was very satisfied with his contribution.

Huo Zian looked at the noisy outfield, secretly worried, this is not a good thing!
