Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 56 57. Xiguan Izakaya (Please recommend tickets and monthly tickets)
Li Xiao chatted with his water friends while drinking the unpalatable milk tea, and soon felt a little empty in his stomach.

Since obtaining the Iron Stomach, Li Xiao always felt that his digestive system seemed to have been strengthened a lot, although the skill description didn't say so.

But Li Xiao could still clearly feel that he ate more than before.

Licking his lips, it was only two hours since he ate that unpalatable bowl of snail noodles, and he was actually hungry again.

Li Xiao looked around, afraid of stepping on thunder, tentatively asked in the live broadcast room

"Big Brother and Big Sister, does anyone live nearby? Is there anything delicious here?"

Immediately someone spoke in the live broadcast room

"Anchor, was it really so unpalatable just now? I see it hasn't been long since you finished eating?"

"It must be too unpalatable. Although I saw the anchor eat several bites, it should be a small bite."

"The anchor's location is at West Capital Garden. I knew there was a Japanese-style izakaya in West Lake Garden before. It's pretty good, but I haven't been there for a long time, and I don't know if it's still there."

"Is the Xiguan Izakaya mentioned upstairs? It's still open! I just went to eat it last week."

"Yes, Kikan Izakaya is quite good, but the types are a bit limited, but the sashimi is very fresh, and the grilled food is also good."

"I like their beef thin udon."

"The fat and strong food stall over there is also good!"

....
Li Xiao took a quick glance, and the names of several restaurants appeared.

Among them, the one that appears most is an izakaya called Xiguan.

Li Xiao opened the thousand-degree map on his phone and rummaged a bit.

It's still very close to me, so don't worry about it, just let it go.

After all, it is really not suitable for a person to go to a food stall, and it doesn't seem good to have to eat so greasy at night.

After walking for more than ten minutes, I came to Xiguan Izakaya.

An ordinary-looking izakaya.

There is only one facade, one side is the bar and aisle where customers eat, and the other side is the boss's operation room.

There is only one boss working in the shop, and the boss is very old. Although he wears a hat on his head, his temples are already white. There are already seven or eight people sitting at the bar, some are eating alone, and some are chatting in pairs.

Looking at the time, 8:50 is an embarrassing time. Most people have already finished dinner, but it is impossible to eat supper so early, except for some special circumstances like Li Xiao.

However, at this embarrassing time point, the popularity is not bad. It is conceivable that the taste must be good.

Li Xiao raised the welcome curtain above his head and walked in.

The boss did not bow at ninety degrees, but said a very polite "welcome".

Li Xiao pulled it away silently, and the chairs and the light-colored willow bar on the table were wiped clean.

All the menus in the store are hung on wooden signs behind the boss's operating area.

【Grilled Mentaiko Potatoes】25
【Sliced ​​Beef Tongue with Sea Salt】35
【Happy Salad】35
【Beef Udon】35
【Eel Rice】35
【Sea Shrimp Tempura】25
【Grilled Pork Belly】25
【Yakitori Whole Foods】155
The price is not high, not low, ordinary price.

Because the customers in the store are relatively dense, Li Xiao suppressed the camera as soon as he entered the door.

Not everyone is willing to appear in front of the camera, especially a place like an izakaya where you can drink and eat meat with good friends to relax.

But even if the camera is facing the ground all the way, the number of people in the live broadcast room remains unchanged.

"Anchor, I strongly recommend, Yakitori Whole Foods!"

"Yes, yes, Yakitori Whole Foods, look around, there must be a little bit, if you like chicken, you must order one!"

"No, what was said upstairs is wrong. You can order what you don't eat. It's really amazing. In fact, I think this place shouldn't be called Xiguan Izakaya, it should be called Yakitori Whole Foods Izakaya!"

....
Li Xiao raised her eyebrows, is it so delicious?Recommended by so many people?
155, the most expensive in the audience, and a lot more expensive than others, but for the current me, it is not a big problem.

Suddenly the boss opened his mouth, and he seemed to have just noticed that Li Xiao had come in, or he had just finished his work, or he was habitually waiting for the customers to see the menu clearly.

"The guest is very unfamiliar, is this the first time?"

Li Xiao nodded, "Yes, it's the first time." This conversation seems familiar, and the proprietress of [Good Shunjing] also said it.

"Need to introduce the menu?"

The boss said without raising his head while flipping the food in his hand.

"Um, I heard that your Yakitori Whole Foods is very good? So is beef udon?"

Li Xiao looked at the phone, and the barrage kept popping up.

The boss slowly put the thick ox tongue sprinkled with fine sea salt into a black plate, handed it to a man in the back, and then walked back slowly.

He glanced at Li Xiao's not-so-small camera

"Anchor?"

Li Xiao nodded, "Yes."

The old man rolled his eyes without hesitation, and said softly, "Don't promote it to me, I'm too busy."

Li Xiao twitched the corners of his mouth, and quickly reached out to turn off the camera.

Indeed, in the same way that some passers-by don't like being on camera.

Also not all shopkeepers like to be publicized or criticized.

Seeing Li Xiao's actions, the shopkeeper twitched his lips,
"It doesn't matter if you turn it off, everyone is working, so be considerate of each other. You see that although your camera is on, it keeps pointing downwards and doesn't take random pictures. You should be a polite anchor. Let you live broadcast this time."

Li Xiao showed a grateful smile. Although he has become popular recently, at least tens of thousands of people watch it together every time he broadcasts, and his income has also increased.

However, Mao hastily shutting down such a big taboo will definitely make the viewers unhappy, and he is very grateful for the other party's concession.

Then listen to the boss continue to say
"One Yakitori Whole Foods, one Beef Udon, right?"

Li Xiao nodded
"That's right, let's start with these two for now."

The boss nodded and started working.

The customer's dining area is much higher than the boss's work area, and guests can sit in their seats and watch the whole process of the boss's production.

Although the old man is not young, his movements are smooth and smooth without any stagnation. It seems that every turn of food and every brushing of oil has gone through thousands of tempers.

Li Xiao has acquired many cooking-related skills, although he does not have the cooking skills of grilling and cooking noodles.

The principle that one way works all the way is very applicable in cooking, and Li Xiao can see that the other party's cooking skills are very superb.

Although it seems to be the simplest barbecue, you can do it with your hands.

But when to turn over, when to brush with oil, when to add water, when to add what seasoning, will greatly affect the taste and texture of each skewer.

It was only when the old man took out the things that needed to be grilled that Li Xiao understood what it meant to be called [Broken Bird Whole Food].
