Chapter 389: Seven great restaurants in Chinatown, ten representative dishes

Views:

Gordon Ramsay had a hot temper and his scolding made Qi Huaidong stunned. But when he saw Channing Tatum said nothing and kept saying "yes, yes" and "yes, that's right", he was even more surprised. He realized that the two foreigners in front of him might have complicated origins. Although Gordon Ramsay was not scolding him, he was also sweating profusely.

It was not until five or six minutes later that Gordon Ramsey stopped, but Channing Tatum didn't dare to stay here and hurriedly pulled Qi Huaidong and ran out.

There were many people in the hotel at this time, and they were all shocked when they saw this scene, but soon someone recognized Gordon Ramsay. At that time, during the live broadcast on TV, Gordon Ramsay pointed at Huang Yiyuan's nose and cursed him. They all remembered the series of "beep beep" muting sounds clearly...

Just now, Qi Huaidong brought that foreigner to Manhanlou for dinner, and many people saw his arrogant attitude. When they saw these two people leaving in disgrace after being scolded, they couldn't help but secretly say good things in their hearts.

After the two left, Gordon Ramsay turned around and looked at Ye Chui. There was some surprise in his eyes. He obviously recognized Ye Chui as the owner of Man Han Lou, who now had China's number one chef. He just didn't expect that he was such a young man.

Ye Chui also coughed lightly and prepared to say hello to the other party, but Gordon Ramsay was probably still in a bad mood after his scolding just now. Should he wait for the other party to calm down before saying... As a result, he saw Gordon Ramsay chuckle a few times, and said to Ye Chui with a friendly face: "Hello, Mr. Ye Chui, I heard that the owner of Manhanlou is a young boy. I didn't expect that he is really so young. I really learned a lot today."

"..." Ye Chui was speechless. This man had just been cursing for five minutes, but in the blink of an eye he was fine. This man's temper can be said to be able to be controlled... He also hurriedly smiled and said in somewhat stiff English, "Mr. Gordon, I also want to thank you for casting the first vote for Manhanlou at the Spring Banquet."

"And me, I was the one who cast the second vote for Manhanlou." Robert stood up and said with a nostalgic look on his face, "The braised pork intestines were really delicious back then, I came here today and want to try them again."

He was speaking English, but the three words "liu fei chang" were directly imitated Chinese pronunciation. It sounded awkward and dry, but you could vaguely hear what he was saying.

Ye Chui was speechless. Most people would not like dishes like fried pig intestines, but those who like them would never forget them. It was the kind of home-cooked dish that would be on the menu of any restaurant, big or small. Of course, this kind of delicacy was just being accepted in this world. If one wanted to eat a dish made with pig intestines, one had to go to a high-end restaurant. And when it came to the most authentic one, it had to be his Manhanlou.

Robert and Gordon Ramsay came here to eat. Ye Cui had a good impression of them. In fact, he didn't know their identities yet. But since he had a good impression of them, he had to treat them with courtesy. So he smiled and continued in stiff English, "In that case, if you don't mind, have lunch with my family at noon."

Gordon Ramsay and Robert both said it was good.

So Ye Chui specially called Su Xin to take the two of them to the first private room upstairs - all the private rooms in the hotel were booked out, but in order to prevent special guests, such as Mr. Han, one room was reserved and not open to the public. This room was specially used to entertain friends. On weekdays, Ye Chui, Lin Wei, An Jing, Wang Shiyu, and Xiao Han Yuyan would eat lunch and dinner in this room. Other guests were not eligible to be invited by Ye Chui to enter.

While waiting for Su Xin to take the two of them away, Ye Chui prepared to go to the kitchen to cook himself.

At this time, he saw Tian Xiaodu with a sigh on his face, looking at Gordon Tatum and Robert with a strange expression.

Han Yuyan nudged Tian Xiaodu's arm with his elbow: "Big Brother, what's wrong with you? Are you shocked by the way he cursed?"

"I've heard for a long time that chefs around the world have hot tempers and are always scolding people. When I was the head chef of Wan Lai Fu, I specially learned from him in order to intimidate those chefs. I didn't expect to meet the real person today. His scolding style is really extraordinary." Tian Xiaodu said with emotion.

Ye Chui and Han Yuyan were both a little stunned: "World Chef God?"

Tian Xiaodu was even more puzzled, looking at Ye Chui and Han Yuyan: "That Gordon Ramsay is one of the three ten-star chefs in the world, known as the world's chef god... What's wrong, you don't know?"

Ye Chui and Han Yuyan shook their heads.

Tian Xiaodu: “…”

Han Yuyan suddenly became a little excited: "I seem to have heard my grandfather mention the name of the World Cooking God. Even my grandfather respected him very much. I didn't expect that he was really extraordinary... How did he develop the ability to curse?"

"... Is there something wrong with where you're focusing?" Ye Chui said with some sweat on his face.

Tian Xiaodu said with some worry, "But Master, besides the world's cooking god, Robert is not a pushover either. He owns three eight-star restaurants and is a well-known gourmet. The two of them will come here to taste your dishes today and they will definitely be very picky. Master, will you be nervous?"

"It's okay..." Ye Cui said calmly. In fact, he was not that nervous. He had experienced this kind of scene many times in his previous life. He had been the chef for state banquets countless times. The most discerning gourmets in the world had tasted his dishes. He had developed the self-control in this aspect a long time ago.

As he was talking, he had already walked into the kitchen. Han Yuyan hurriedly took out a chef's uniform from the cabinet on the side and put it on Ye Chui. Ye Chui smiled and said, "Dayu, you are good at English and you are the granddaughter of Mr. Han. Go to the box to entertain them first. I will cook."

"Oh, okay." Han Yuyan agreed and left the kitchen.

Ye Chui said to Tian Xiaodu again: "Xiaodu, come and help me."

"Okay, Master." Tian Xiaodu agreed quickly.

The person to be entertained was the world's chef god and a world-class gourmet, so Ye Chu naturally had to take it seriously. However, the meals he prepared were not very complicated dishes, but just some common home-cooked side dishes.

Shredded pork with green pepper, shredded potatoes with vinegar, three fresh vegetables, mapo tofu…

Of course, they didn't forget to prepare a dish of braised pork intestines for Robert. Han Yuyan, Lin Wei and other girls didn't eat this dish.

These dishes are what you can find in ordinary restaurants, light and ordinary. Of course, Tian Xiaodu did not think that Ye Chui was deliberately not making high-end dishes, but he understood that since the other party was a world-class gourmet and chef, Ye Chui had to show his true skills - the best part of Ye Chui's cooking was that the deliciousness was found in simplicity.

The simpler the dish, the more delicious it will be in his hands. This is also Ye Chui's way of flattery.

Ye Chui asked several waiters to bring home-cooked dishes to the private room upstairs. After washing his face, Ye Chui followed in.

The atmosphere in the box was pretty good. Lin Wei, An Jing, Wang Shiyu and An Xiaoxiao had already sat down. Looking at the looks of Gordon Ramsay and Robert, they didn't seem to mind having dinner with Ye Chu's family. Han Yuyan was chatting with them. Lin Wei and An Jing had both studied English, but as high school students, they obviously couldn't understand what they were talking about.

But why else can we say that these two are academic masters? They listened carefully and were obviously treating this as a listening exercise.

Wang Shiyu and An Xiaoxiao looked like they were listening to a foreign language.

Ye Chui brought over plates of home-cooked dishes. The girls were already starving, so they just served themselves some rice and started eating.

The eating habits in China are obviously very different from those in the United States, but as world-renowned gourmets and chefs, Gordon Ramsay and Robert had no difficulty and quickly started eating with rice.

Ye Chui sat down next to Gordon Ramsay and said with a smile in stiff English, "Mr. Gordon, please try some ordinary Chinese home-cooked food."

Seeing that Ye Chui could actually speak English, An Jing, Lin Wei, An Xiaoxiao and Wang Shiyu were naturally a little surprised, but they were already used to Ye Chui's surprising expressions, and they soon regained their composure.

Gordon Ramsay looked at the dishes on the table, and his gaze finally stopped on the Mapo Tofu dish. He curiously picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

Mapo tofu is a typical spicy flavor. Most foreigners probably cannot understand the beauty of it, but Gordon Ramsay looked quite enjoying it. He nodded involuntarily after taking a bite. "Tofu is a Chinese food creation. It has now spread to the world. But when it comes to making the most delicious tofu dishes, it's the Chinese. This tofu has a very good spicy taste. I like it very much."

Seeing Gordon Ramsay's praise, Ye Cui was still calm, but Han Yuyan, who knew Gordon Ramsay's identity, breathed a sigh of relief. If this world-famous chef didn't like her master's dishes, she would definitely be very unhappy.

But Gordon Ramsay suddenly asked Ye Chui out of curiosity, "There is a dish in Chinatown that is very similar to this tofu. I wonder if Mr. Ye Chui knows about it?"

"There's mapo tofu in Chinatown too?" Ye Chui was a little surprised.

"Mapo Tofu?" Gordon Ramsay repeated the name, of course using the transliteration method. He shook his head and said, "No, the dish in Chinatown is called 'Chen's Tofu'. The taste is very similar to this dish. It is one of the top ten representative dishes of Chinatown."

Han Yuyan was already very curious: "What is the representative dish of Chinatown?"

Gordon Ramsay seemed to know a lot about this, and he answered: "There are seven major restaurants in Chinatown, and ten representative dishes..." (~^~)
