2457 Acting as himself
At the beginning of lunchtime, diners came in a line. There were all kinds of diners, and the business route with sunglasses and hats standing in line was not eye-catching at all.
As far as the eye could see, there were three or four people dressed similarly to him. There were many celebrities, internet celebrities, and other public figures who came to the small shop to eat, so glasses and hats were basic.
As the Golden Rooster movie King, Shang Lu’s face was naturally very familiar. Even though he was wearing sunglasses and a hat, people still felt that he was vaguely familiar. However, the customers of the small shop were very cultured, so they only took a few more glances and nothing more.
This level of gazes was simply common for business routes, so he didn’t care at all. However, his manager, Yang Hong, who was also wearing a hat and mask and was queuing behind him, heaved a big sigh of relief.
Of course, the only one who felt this way was Yang Hong. The trade route had always been very calm, as if he had already known this would happen.
“I told you that the customers of master chef Restaurant are more mature. You didn’t believe me. Do You Believe Me Now?” Trade route awkwardly said.
Yang Hong rolled his eyes.”It’s not that you can’t see it with your own eyes. It’s not too late to know now. It seems like your idea must be good.”
“Look at how long it took me to choose this theme and character. It’s definitely going to be brilliant and explosive.” Speaking of this trade route, he couldn’t help but feel proud.
“Let’s wait until the great chef agrees to it. ” Yang Hong immediately poured cold water on him.
“Uh …” The trade route was instantly jammed.
“After we finish our meal, we will discuss this matter with head chef Yuan. There should be no problem.” Trade route didn’t seem to have much confidence.
“We’ll only know if we ask. It’s too early to say this.” Yang Hong looked around at the people who were lining up in an orderly manner and the customers who had already gone in to eat. For some reason, he felt that things would not go so smoothly this time.
As if he had thought of something, Yang Hong leaned closer and asked in a low voice,””Have you eaten here before? is it really as good as the legends say?”
Yang Hong didn’t mean anything by asking this, but he was very curious. Just by looking at the queue, he knew that the chef’s skills were not bad. Moreover, this was a place known as the king of chefs in China, so it was definitely not bad. His reputation was well deserved.
In Yang Hong’s opinion, since the group of people on the trade route had agreed to come here, they must have done an inspection in advance. Therefore, they wanted to ask him first to have some information.
However, Shang Lu’s answer was unexpected,”I’ve never eaten here before. I’ve only heard of him. However, I’ve read a lot of reports about head chef Yuan and studied him carefully. There’s definitely no problem with him. Moreover, ye Meiyuan also said that the dishes here are super delicious.”
Looking at the appearance of the trade route, even if most of his face was covered, it was still very obvious that it was a matter of course, which made Yang Hong speechless.
Hearing ye Meiyuan’s name, Yang Hong was relieved. Heavenly Queen ye was famous in the circle for being honest, so he didn’t have to worry about whether she was telling the truth or not.
Without waiting for Yang Hong and Shang Lu to say anything, it was their turn to enter the restaurant to eat.
As soon as they entered the restaurant, they went to see Yuan Zhou at once, unlike the other customers who found their seats at the first moment.
It might be due to the good luck of the two people, but Yuan Zhou was currently cooking the cabbage with golden edges using the universal six directions method.
In the raging fire, the spoon and the pot worked well together and shuttled back and forth, occasionally revealing the White jade-like ingredients. The fire could almost be said to be burning by the side of the pot. At a glance, it looked like it was burning in the pot, and outsiders would feel a sense of danger.
This was especially so for Yang Hong and Shang Lu, who were here to eat for the first time. It was their first time seeing such an explosive scene, and they even had a different purpose. They were so shocked that they sucked in a breath of cold air, and their eyes were wide open.
“You … You sure you can do this?” Yang Hong said after a long while.
“My eyes tell me he can, but my hand says he can ‘t.” Trade route directly said.
The two of them stood there in a daze for a long time. It was only when su Ruoyan came over and led them to their seats that they came to their senses.
As soon as he came back to his senses, Shang Lu became very excited,”how is it, head chef Yuan? you’re amazing, right? I told you that my choice was definitely the right one.”
“It’s really good, but can you act it out?” Yang Hong immediately asked.
This time, the trade route was no longer excited. Thinking back to the scene just now, he shook his head with certainty. He could not!
“Then it’s settled.” Yang Hong shrugged.
It wasn’t that he wanted to pour cold water on the business route, but after seeing such a professional scene, those who knew the weight of the business route didn’t think highly of his previous idea.
Actually, it wasn’t a big deal. He was just tired of acting on the business route and wanted to change the subject to filming. The first subject he chose was food. Speaking of the current Chinese food and drinks, he naturally had to mention Yuan Zhou.
When Shang Lu first started to collect information, he naturally saw most of Yuan Zhou’s information. As he got to know more about him, he suddenly wanted to shoot a TV series about Yuan Zhou’s rise. Even though he had never seen Yuan Zhou in person, he had seen many of Yuan Zhou’s interviews and cooking videos. Shang Lu felt that this was very good.
In addition, he was a person who could cook well. Therefore, he naturally wanted to play the role of the main character by himself. Directing and acting by himself was the latest step to try. He had brought his manager here to have a good discussion with Yuan Zhou about this matter.
However, before he opened his mouth, he saw Yuan Zhou’s culinary skills on the spot. Instantly, Shang Lu felt that he was absolutely mistaken when he thought he knew how to cook. He was just able to cook the food well to ensure his life. He was too arrogant!
“But I can invite head chef Yuan to be himself!” Shang Lu’s eyes turned as he thought of another idea.
“What you said is possible. You can try.” Yang Hong said.
It was only after the matter had come to an end that he thought of ordering food. At this time, he noticed the menu on the table that was as thick as a dictionary. This hit the merchant who wanted him to act in the beginning even harder. With such a thick menu, how many dishes would there be? how could he, who only knew how to cook home-cooked dishes, handle it? it was simply wishful thinking.
Yang Hong was a typical person from Lu province. Therefore, he naturally wanted to eat Lu cuisine. He had already known that Yuan Zhou had many regional cuisines here. Therefore, he directly said,””I’ll have a spicy black fish, a five-spice fried meat, a Wei County spicy skin, and a bowl of rice.”
He had a strong taste, so after he called su Ruoyan over, he ordered some dishes that were a little stronger.
On the other hand, Shang Lu was the exact opposite. Due to his profession and the fact that he was from Jiangsu, he ate very lightly. Naturally, he also ordered,”one claypot fish head, one steamed salted pork in wine, and one serving of liver. No rice.”
Although he wasn’t very particular about it, he still needed to take care of his body. Therefore, he restrained himself and only ordered three dishes. He didn’t eat any carbohydrates like rice.
