Chapter 118 I Care About You

Three hours is not long, but hard enough.

Just when Zhang Wentao finished his lunch and arranged for Xiao Li to prepare the staff meal, Sun Xiaowei walked into the back kitchen with a smile.

"Old Zhang, there is a guest outside who wants to meet you."

Sun Xiaowei said flatly.

"See me?" Zhang Wentao frowned: "Know me?"

"I didn't say that, but he didn't move after taking two bites of the dessert you made." Sun Xiaowei raised her eyebrows and pursed her lips.

"Xie Liang, bring me a dessert for today's lunch." Zhang Wentao frowned, and shouted behind him, ignoring Sun Xiaowei.When he heard Sun Xiaowei's words, his first reaction was that there was something wrong with the taste of the dessert.

"Okay, master." Xie Liangliang nodded and walked out of the kitchen quickly.

Shi Tiandong also put down his work and walked over. After all, in such a situation, if the guests have any doubts about the desserts, the responsibility does not rest on one person.And today's dessert soufflé was made by him. He and Zhang Wentao both tasted it when they first came out, and there was no problem.

Souffle is a French dessert, which is translated as soufflé or soufflé.

The main ingredients are egg yolks and beaten egg whites, which are soft and fluffy after being baked. In French, his name just means "inflate" and "fluffy up", which aptly explains the protein and milk. How yellow is combined during baking.

Soon, Xie Liang brought a soufflé from the front and trotted back to the restaurant. When Xiao panted and put the cake in front of everyone, Zhang Wentao had already picked up the spoon, glanced at Xie Liang, and said calmly: " What are you panicking about? Also, from now on, the restaurant will be called the chef, but you didn’t call it the master.”

After speaking, he spared a spoonful and put it in his mouth.

Soft in the mouth, egg white flavor, light taste, not greasy.

After reconfirming that there was no problem, Zhang Wentao nodded, handed the spoon to Xie Liang, and followed Sun Xiaowei out of the kitchen.

It was a male guest who wanted to see Zhang Wentao.

Beige pants, white shirt, young, maybe because of the dress and skin color, Zhang Wentao's first impression is that he is fair and educated.

Seeing the other party smiling at him, Zhang Wentao made a general judgment, and said softly to Sun Xiaowei who was following behind him: "Go and do your work, I'll take care of it here." After that, he came to the guests at the table.

"Hi sir, I'm the chef of this restaurant, what's the problem with the dessert?" His tone couldn't tell what kind of attitude he had in his heart.

The other party, either came to show off, or came to criticize, Zhang Wentao had seen a lot in the past.

"You are Zhang Wentao, Mr. Zhang." The man stood up, stretched out his hand with a smile, and said politely, "Hello, I am Zhang Mingyu, the chief designer of Shaohua Bookstore. After Mr. Liu gave me your phone number, I will be here today." But I couldn't reach you, so I came to your restaurant for lunch first, just to try your handicraft."

"Huh?" Zhang Wentao froze for a moment, seeing the other party's extended hand with a smile on his face, he suddenly had a very familiar feeling.

But soon he realized it, shook hands with the other party and said: "So, I'm sorry, my mobile phone is usually muted at work."

"It's okay, please sit down, Mr. Zhang. Actually, I'm also interested in you personally, especially when Mr. Liu often recalled that he often went to your master's restaurant when he was in France, and saw you in charge of the kitchen many times. I didn't expect that after tasting it today, it tastes really good."

Zhang Mingyu made a gesture of please, but Zhang Wentao shook his head.

Mr. Liu is the one who contacted him by email before, and it is not surprising to see him in his teacher's restaurant. The open kitchen is just separated by a window.

Besides, he still has things to do in the kitchen, so it's impossible for him to stay just because the other party wants to get to know him.

but…

Zhang Wentao turned his attention to the desserts on the table and asked, "Come back after I'm done. Is there any problem with the desserts?"

Zhang Mingyu smiled sheepishly, and said, "No, I just want to express my gratitude for the lunch and meet you first by the way."

"Then let's chat for about ten minutes. If there is anything you need to talk to the waiter, you can." After finishing speaking, Zhang Wentao also gave the other party a polite smile. The moment he turned around and walked to the kitchen, he felt more and more that the other party The feeling is similar to what I saw in Xie Zhiyao.

It's just that he has a lot of brains, and then uses a smile to get close to others and cover up his true intentions.

The other party came to him, probably not just to meet him.

But a bookstore has little to do with me. First, it has nothing to do with him whether the other party settles down in Yunmiao Village; .

But he still has a clear understanding of himself. There are so many good bakers in the country. He is good at cooking with this skill. If he makes desserts, he can't make mistakes.

As for the bread, forget it, that thing, he would get up and go into the kitchen at night, even if he was killed, he didn't want to live that kind of day and night upside down.

And Zhang Mingyu, who returned to his seat, also smiled as he watched Zhang Wentao leave.

He received an invitation from his friend Sunzi, read some information about Yunmiao Village, and was very interested.After mentioning it to Lao Liu, the owner of Shaohua Bookstore and his partner, he decided to come here to investigate first.

Coincidentally, at a party in the circle, Lao Liu heard from a friend who had returned from a trip to Dali that a restaurant in a small town here has invited a Michelin chef to be the head chef, and he cooks Italian dishes.

Yearning for food, culture, and art, he searched the Internet out of curiosity, and found that it turned out to be a Huaxia chef he had met when he was in France.

He thought that he and Zhang Mingyu would definitely go to Yunmiao Village to investigate in person, so that he could take the opportunity to taste the dishes made by the chef he admired without having to fly to France, so he searched and found out The other party is still in the mailbox on the French website.

That's it, got in touch.

As for Zhang Mingyu, he came to Zhang Wentao, on the one hand because of Lao Liu's recommendation, and on the other hand, because he wanted to learn about the situation here from the side.He is a designer, and the other party is Michelin. Different professions are different in different industries, but in a sense, they are all pursuing artistic things.

Thinking of such a small town, a Michelin chef chose to stay as the head chef of a restaurant.

Then there must be something he appreciates here.

Considering that my itinerary this time is to investigate anyway, and I don't want the village and Sunzi to know, I simply come here to get to know each other and hear what the chef thinks about this place.

But they didn't know that the reason why Zhang Wentao came to Sun Xiaowei's restaurant was purely because of a broken relationship, and he was free to find something to do for himself.

Find the rhythm of the job.

……

"What, is there a problem with dessert?"

As soon as Zhang Wentao came in, Shi Tiandong came up and asked.

"No, the designer of Shaohua Bookstore, come over to meet and say hello." Zhang Wentao shrugged.

Shi Tiandong felt relieved after a day: "It seems that what Sun Xiaowei and the others said before may really be true. The other party is here to investigate?"

"What, it's about you?"

Zhang Wentao raised his eyebrows and asked, wondering why Shi Tiandong is such an old man, he pretends to be cool every day, but he is so bored in his heart, he cares about everything.

"What does it have to do with me? I'll go back when you leave." Shi Tiandong said with a curled lip.

"Go back to your sister?"

"Fuck off, who is like you, who can see your 'full garden' every day."

Zhang Wentao was slightly taken aback when he heard this, he didn't know what Xu Hongdou was doing now, it seemed...

She is quite concerned about the Shaohua Bookstore.

 When Zhang Mingyu appeared in the TV series, I thought he would chase after Xu Hongdou
  It's a pity not to expand, hey.

  Xie Zhiyao's smile gives the impression of heartiness, while Zhang Mingyu's smile gives the impression of cleanliness (personal opinion).However, both of them approached Xu Hongdou through smiling, and got what they wanted.One was to get Xu Hongdou's heart, and the other was to get the news he wanted from Xu Hongdou.

  But in fact, this is not bad intentions. After all, when people interact with each other, the initial impurity will become pure, and the initial purity will gradually become complicated. This may be due to human nature, right?
