In fact, there wasn't much. At most, Yuanzhou asked Alessandro if he needed help preparing ingredients and if he had any special requirements.
As the host, Yuanzhou felt that he still had the responsibility and obligation to prepare everything for communication.
It can almost be said that after Alessandro expressed that he only needed a few special spices, he could do whatever he wanted because he had no special needs.
The reason for Alessandro's casualness is that he has been making sausages for so many years. If he prepared the usual ingredients by himself, he would definitely be bullying Yuan Zhou. He had thought about it before and let the other party prepare the ingredients.
Very brave.
After the discussion, Alessandro and Bailey said goodbye very knowingly. They left Taoxi Road directly in order to recharge their batteries and have sufficient physical strength to face tomorrow's exchange. This was a good thing for themselves and Yuan. The respect of the state, Alessandro still knew this.
"It seems that we still need to trouble Chef Li Li tomorrow." Yuan Zhou muttered.
The main reason is that Alessandro is Italian and must be more accustomed to using Western-style stoves and utensils. The nearest one must be Li Li's Western restaurant, and Li Li is also an old acquaintance. Although Yuan Zhou felt that the previous memorial tablet incident I still feel a bit unclear but I can only find him.
Just do it. Yuanzhou went directly to the western restaurant to find Li Li and explained the situation. After Li Li tried his best to take over the preparation of the ingredients, he handed the matter into his hands. After all, Yuanzhou had not thought about it before. You have to prepare it yourself, but give it to Cheng Zhaomei.
Since Li Li was sincere, Yuan Zhou could not refute it, so he left it to him, because the preparations contained many Western-style seasonings and ingredients, which were areas that Li Li was familiar with.
After returning to the store, Yuan Zhou did not do anything else first but made a call to Cheng Zhaomei.
"Mei Zhao, I'm going to talk to the Italian sausage master tomorrow. Come over and take a look." Yuan Zhou said directly.
He remembered that in the past two years, Cheng Zhaomei often made some homemade bacon and sausages and sold them in the store as a bonus. The taste was pretty good, but there was room for improvement. Tomorrow was a good opportunity to learn more.
"Okay, master, but Junior Brother Huang is also here with me. Do I need to call him tomorrow?" Cheng Zhaomei agreed immediately.
It also happened that Huang Gang came in person to represent the Cantonese Cuisine Association and planned to hold a joint exhibition of Sichuan and Guangdong cuisine with the Sichuan Cuisine Association. In order to show his sincerity and respect for the senior brother Cheng Zhaomei, Huang Gang came in person and arrived yesterday.
With such a good thing, as a senior brother, he must seek the welfare of the junior brothers and sisters below.
Yuanzhou didn't know that Huang Gang was here, but after hearing Cheng Zhaomei's words, he thought of the other two registered disciples of Sichuan cuisine, Cao Zhishu and Zhang He.
Compared with the registered disciples of other cuisines, Cao Zhishu and Zhang He have a relatively low presence. The main reason is that these two people are very low-key. They have always been busy studying and rarely express opinions. Of course, their cooking skills have also improved very quickly. .
Have you not seen that Cao Zhishu's Shu Restaurant has become so popular since he became Yuan Zhou's registered disciple? It is definitely the most famous restaurant in Chengdu besides Cheng Zhaomei's Cheng Family Restaurant. It is more popular than Liu Li, Huang Fei and his others. too much.
This must be due to Yuan Zhou's fame, but we have to see from the side that Cao Zhishu's cooking skills have definitely improved. After all, if the cooking skills are not good, diners will pay for it once or twice, and three or four times will not be the case. Yes, after all, no one is a fool.
As for Zhang He, although he still holds the title of Little King of Sichuan Cuisine, there is nothing he can do about it. The King of Sichuan Cuisine has been taken away by his senior brother, but the gold content of this title is naturally different.
Naturally, this evaluation must exclude Chef God's Shop, otherwise there would be no comparison. Who has the right to say that his shop has many people in front of it would be like lighting a lantern in the toilet.
Of course, the two of them keep a low profile, which does not mean that Yuanzhou will forget that he has two registered disciples of Sichuan Cuisine, but usually Sichuan Cuisine has Cheng Zhaomei, so if he has something to convey, he can just let him convey it. Cao Zhishu and Zhang He are rarely called over, but teaching must always be Never stopped.
"Then let's call Zhang He and Cao Zhishu over together. It would be better this way." Yuanzhou thought for a moment and said.
He had mentioned to Alessandro before that he might arrange for some of his apprentices to come and have a look. Of course, he would definitely ensure that they would not disturb their communication. After obtaining permission, he called Cheng Zhaomei.
"Okay, master understands." Cheng Zhaomei said.
After talking about the business, he started to express concern for Yuan Zhou, then hung up the phone and started to inform Junior Brother Huang and the others.
After Yuanzhou hung up the phone, he recalled all the sausages from various cuisines. Although there was no need to do so due to his cooking skills, he still respected the other party whether it was a competition or an exchange of comprehensive information.
Whether it was when his skills were not that good before, or when his skills are already quite good now, Yuan Zhou has always done what he did before.
Time passed quickly and the next day arrived early.
Because the appointment was in the afternoon, Yuan Zhou was still very serious about business whether it was breakfast or lunch, no different from usual.
And Alessandro and the others also got up and made some preparations after lingering over the quilts early in the morning.
At noon, after having a sumptuous Western-style lunch, the two of them headed towards Taoxi Road in advance, fearing that the same situation would happen before, such as traffic jams and people being blocked. An extremely rude thing to do.
I set off early and when I arrived at the entrance of the store, I had to wait for a short while before the business hours ended.
"Mr. Alessandro is here so early. I've been waiting for a long time." Yuan Zhou greeted with a smile.
"No, no, thank you to Chef Yuan for your hard work." Alessandro said.
Although he felt that Yuanzhou had to do business before the competition, and he didn't know whether it was due to his extreme confidence or something else, but he didn't agree with it.
Alessandro believes that if you want to do something, you should focus on it, so as to achieve better results. Just like when he makes sausages, he insists on making them by hand for decades to achieve his current achievements.
But this is Yuan Zhou's matter. Although Alessandro disagrees, he still respects it.
Next, Yuan Zhou introduced Cheng Zhaomei and other disciples who had arrived early in the morning next to him, and asked them to say hello to Alessandro. Now Alessandro was envious.
Seeing Cheng Zhaomei and the others in high spirits, I thought that even though I was over sixty years old, I still hadn't found a favorite disciple to pass on my skills. However, Yuanzhou already had four disciples at such a young age. This was really amazing. Something that people envy.
Even if Alessandro is confident in his sausage-making skills, he will not deny Yuan Zhou's cooking skills. After all, no matter how ignorant he is, he cannot not know what the Bocuse d'Or Golden Chef Award means. , not to mention he has a lot of experience.
