Eternal food paradise

The world of "China Ichiban".

Huaiguang Temple.

In the square where you can see the spiers of the temple, the 'Guangzhou Dumpling Conference' will be held today.

Many restaurants and shops have set up sunshades and rain shelters at designated locations. Next to the sheds, cloth flags are erected high, with the names of time-honored restaurants fluttering in the wind.

‘Pottery House’.

‘North Park Hotel’.

‘Dumpling Brothers’.

As well as the ‘Yangquan Restaurant’ which suffered a fire a while ago and is in dire need.

The people of Guangzhou City are unanimously optimistic about these brands. They recognize the skills of their chefs and predict that one of them will definitely win the 'Dumpling Competition'. Of course, the only criterion for the winner is which one wins. The meals are the largest and the business is the hottest.

The day before the food festival, a special review was going on in the kitchen of the ‘Tao Guan’.

The restaurant owner is a widow who still retains her charm.

As for the chief chef and head chef, he is a fat chef with a simple and honest face.

They were appraising the 'black dumplings' that a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl had just brought out of the steamer.

"Hey, it turns out the dough is made with squid ink?"

The fat cook bit into the dumpling and commented in surprise:

“Hand-rolled dough is passable!”

"As for the filling, shiitake mushrooms, winter bamboo shoots and pork are minced, leaving only the steamed and granular fish roe, which remains intact. The texture is a bit stiff and abrupt when you first eat it, but the fish roe is so refreshing to bite into. Reasonably preserved..."

Poof!

Every time you chew, there is an explosion of umami flavor.

"Very good!" Chef Fat Chef nodded affirmatively and looked at the proprietress, "These are very novel dumplings. It will be no problem to use them in this dumpling competition!"

"Our 'Tao Guan' can divide the stall into two, put our original 'cockscomb dumplings' on one half, and put this 'squid dumplings' on the other half!"

The boss lady who still retains her charm has to think about more aspects, such as budget and cost.

"Ink sacs are found in many squids and squids. There is no problem with this supply."

"But fish roe is..."

The girl who had just made the 'black dumplings' was, of course, Erina Nakiri. After hearing this, she immediately replied: "There are no restrictions on specific species of fish roe. Any fish roe can be used, even if it's like 'Polychops'." Very fine particles.”

Do spring fish also work?

The landlady suddenly showed an unexpected and surprised smile.

This is a kind of fish that spawns all year round. It has a large output and a lot of fish roe. The cost spent on it is not as good as the pork stuffing... Well, if you can cut another knife on the pork stuffing, it will shrink. If you add some water, the recipe will be even more perfect...

"Ding dong."

Seeing the information bar, a row of new mission information popped up, and Nakiri Erina suppressed her surprise.

Sure enough, the information obtained on the forum is still very practical.

Those old players have summed up a rule——

No matter where you are.

As long as there is a large-scale event on the scale of a 'Food Festival', it's a no-brainer to get involved. If you successfully participate and receive a task, you will basically earn money. If nothing happens and complete the task, the income will be equivalent to someone else dying from exhaustion in less than half a month. The progress of tiring work.

The girl didn't know that Xia Yan, who was also paying attention here, also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Has the mission finally been triggered?"

Xia Yan nodded secretly. In this way, there is no need to worry about Erina not working hard enough at the 'dumpling competition'. In other words, his invisible encouragement and hints will stop here. He can just leave everything to the girl. You can stay behind the scenes, waiting for your tasks to be completed and check the skill points that have been signed and received.

…

The next day, the square under the high tower of Huaiguang Temple was crowded with people and shouts of "dumpling dumplings" were everywhere.

It does not deviate from the original plot.

In the entire square, the stall with the largest number of people and the most lively and lively scene was the stall with the brand name "Dumpling Brothers".

"Everyone——"

Wu’s Dumpling Brothers, the elder brother’s name is Wu Xiong.

At this time, Takeo greeted the crowd outside the stall: "Thank you everyone for coming today. Yes, we two brothers decided to serve something a little different to ensure that everyone will have a happy and satisfying meal——"

"Then, please watch, it belongs to the Wu family, the most delicious interpretation at the dumpling competition——"

Takeo nodded to a naked and muscular man standing at the simple kitchen table of the stall.

A bald man named Wulu lifted the lid off the pot!

Suddenly, the crowd rioted.

In the large black pot on the stove were some strangely shaped potstickers, with the tops of the dough shaped like burning flames by skillful hands.

‘Color, flavor and shape’.

In terms of styling and appearance, it can be said that the gimmick is perfect.

Wu’s Dumpling Brothers immediately made the atmosphere of the food festival extremely lively when the conference just started.

"Whoa whoa!"

“Is this ‘Flame Pot Sticker’?”

The spectators whispered to each other and showed excitement.

In the crowd, Erina Nakiri was also standing. Almost everyone in the venue was attracted. She had settled in Guangzhou City these days and occasionally heard the name "Dumpling Brothers", so she was very interested in the brothers' cooking. Yi is also very curious.

I saw the bald and muscular brother named Wulu holding a clay pot that looked like a wine jar under the kitchen counter. He raised his head and took a sip of something, but instead of swallowing, he held it in his mouth.

"Danger warning!"

Brother Takeo reminded the viewers at the right time:

"Please take a step back and open your eyes to see clearly——"

Whoops!

Nakiri Erina raised her eyebrows. When she saw the bald muscular brother, she held a burning torch from her mouth and spit it out. The flames instantly covered the black cauldron and the pot stickers inside.

The strong fragrance then filled the entire square!

"This is very unclean and unhygienic..."

Nakiri Erina was a little unable to accept it. She looked at the unattractive dumpling brother, especially when she thought about her 'God's Tongue', when she tasted it, she would probably taste some strange things besides the ingredients.

That sense of déjà vu.

It was like being kissed by a gorilla.

Alas! !

The girl turned her back in disgust, immediately gave up the idea of ​​buying a plate and trying the taste, and quickly returned to the 'Tao Guan' stall.

This shadow with its back to the crowd of people was so conspicuous that Takeo immediately cast an unexpected glance.

When he discovered that this little girl was from the Tao Guan store to see what was going on, Takeo couldn't help but sneered:

"Although it is our first time to participate in this competition, the winners of this Guangzhou Dumpling Competition should not get involved with these old and tired old brands."

Withdrawing his gaze, Takeo looked at the surging crowd in front of the stall and raised the corners of his mouth.

"Come on, come on, don't rush, line up in an orderly manner!"

"I want two sets..."

"It smells so good! Crispy from the inside out. Are these fried dumplings or pot stickers?"

I wrote until dawn yesterday, but today my state immediately fell to the bottom. I am indeed an old person. . . .
