Chapter 1488: A really fragrant warning
Zhou Jia knew that Wu Hai could eat a lot. After all, the name “black beast” wasn’t earned for nothing. However, there were roughly 20 to 30 dishes of the entire squid dish. Even Zhou Jia doubted that Wu Hai could finish all of them.
After all, Wu Hai usually ate 10 dishes. However, it was hard to say if he ate three times more this time. Therefore, Zhou Jia said carefully,””There should be 30 or less than 40 dishes in the restaurant that is full of squids. Can brother Wu finish them?”
“I’m just afraid that I can’t finish it, so I only asked for the squid as the main dish. ” Wu Hai stroked his small mustaches and revealed an expression of “I have considered it seriously”.
“Well, okay, I’ll place the order.” Zhou Jia nodded the head and said.
“Yes, yes. Go ahead.” Wu Hai said.
Although he didn’t get to eat the iron plate squid, Wu Hai was still captivated by the huge amount of squid. He waited at the side contentedly for the dishes to be served.
Gabriel and alfreya, who were sitting on the side, did not understand Chinese, so they were naturally not surprised.
Even Gabriel, who had been here for a long time, could only speak a few words. He had even found a private Chinese teacher to teach him. Of course, he had only attended two classes, so he knew more than the other dishes.
Gabriel was already holding the menu and starting to order.
“Mizi barbecued pork, braised meat on a flat plate, guest tofu, sweet and sour pork, preserved vegetable meat, one bowl of noodles, and one bowl of rice. That’s all.” Gabriel’s accent was very heavy, and the names of the dishes basically sounded very strange, but obviously, Zhou Jia was used to it.
“Honey sauce barbecued pork, brine platter, and guest-brewed tofu. Sweet and sour pork, braised pork with preserved vegetables, egg fried rice set, and clear broth noodle soup set, right?” Zhou Jia read all the dishes reported by Gabriel again and again.
Zhou Jia spoke slowly when she read out the names of the dishes. She only continued to ask after she made sure that Gabriel could hear her clearly.
“Yes, yes, yes, that’s it.” Gabriel nodded quickly. Other than the Chinese that they were speaking, the rest of the words were in French.
“Okay, it’s the same. You’re a foreigner and only accept us dollars. You can wait to eat after you pay for the price.” While saying that, Zhou Jia passed the price she had agreed on to Gabriel through a calculator.
It wasn’t cheap, but it was very cheap for Gabriel, because the food he cooked was more than that.
After seeing the price, Gabriel took out the money and turned to alfreya.””The price here is still very cheap. This chef doesn’t like money, although I feel that his craftsmanship shouldn’t be so low.”
“Oh, really?” In his shock, alfreya only nodded casually.
Alfreya couldn’t be blamed for his shock, as he had just seen Gabriel order a lot of dishes on the menu. It looked like there were a lot of dishes.
He felt that he could not finish it, and he was curious when Gabriel’s appetite had become so terrible.
Holding the menu, alfreya hesitated for a while before saying,””El, you just ordered a lot of dishes.”
“Yes, you can order if you want to.” Gabriel immediately became alert.
Alfreya wanted to facepalm when he saw Ell’s expression. He took a deep breath and said,””Of course, I’ll order it myself. I just wanted to ask if there’s a lot of food here.”
Gabriel thought about it for a while, then nodded his head firmly and said,””Well, not a lot.”
“Then I’ll also order something.” Alfreya nodded, and then began to guess the dishes according to the English on the menu, ready to order.
As for why he didn’t ask Gabriel about the special characteristics of this place, it was because he had already asked, and he said that he could order it with his eyes closed.
After saying that, alfreya beckoned Zhou Jia over and then pointed at a dish called fried noodles with black sauce, indicating that he wanted to order this dish.
After all, the meaning of fried noodles in English could be expressed more easily, which was why Alfred chose it.
After alfreya paid, Gabriel could not help but ask,””You only ordered one dish?”
“Of course.” Alfreya nodded.
“I don’t think I’m full.” Gabriel said sincerely.
“I didn’t come here to eat.” While saying that, alfreya turned his head and looked at the place where Chu Xiao was queuing.
“Don’t blame me for not reminding you, the food here is really delicious. ” Gabriel said in a serious tone.
“There’s too much food, and I might not like all of them. ” Alfreya shrugged.
After the two of them conversed for a while, the dishes were served one after another.
The first one to arrive was naturally Wu Hai, who ordered the dishes first. He carried the dishes himself and started to eat the moment he carried them over. His actions were skillful and agile.
Soon, it was Gabriel’s turn. The first dish he served was a marinade platter. The platter was placed on a square plate that was divided into four parts. Every piece of meat was neatly arranged on the plate. It was the kind that would make even those with OCD feel comfortable.
When the dishes were served, Gabriel protected the food with one hand while nodding at alfreya. He then lowered his head and started eating.
“It’s that good?” Seeing Gabriel’s action, alfreya couldn’t help but be curious for a while. But apparently, Chu Xiao was more important in his heart, so this thought just flashed through his mind.
When Gabriel served the second dish, the black bean fried noodles that alfreya had ordered was also finally served.
“Here’s your black bean oil Emperor fried noodles, please enjoy. ” Zhou Jia put down the plate and said.
“Thank you,” he said. Alfreya nodded, then elegantly took the plate and placed it in front of her.
“Your noodles look good.” Gabriel looked up and said.
“Indeed, it looks good on the outside.” Alfreya nodded in agreement.
It was not that the appearance was not bad. The noodles were placed in a pure black rectangular flat plate. After being stir-fried, the shiny brown-red noodles were piled up loosely into a small mountain.
He could clearly see that the noodles were mixed with egg skin, onion shreds, thin white and tender green bean sprouts, and some green onions. The red and green fried noodles formed a sharp contrast with the pure black flat plate, which was very beautiful.
When he bit it open, he realized that the noodles were actually white, but each strand was wrapped in soy sauce, so it looked brownish-red and shiny.
When he brought it to his front, alfreya could clearly smell a strange fragrance rushing into his nose. It was not strong, but it could easily arouse one’s appetite.
Even a person like him, who was not focused on eating, could not help but salivate.
“It also smells good.” Alfred raised his eyebrows.
Because this was a special noodle dish from Guangdong, it was served with a fork and spoon. Alfreya naturally picked up the fork and put the noodles into his mouth.
