Chapter 803 The Highest Realm of Fudge

After Ma Fu made a plan, he began to enjoy the food in front of him. He liked the barbecued pork here very much, especially when paired with barbecued pork sauce, the taste was simply amazing.

The preparation of this barbecued pork sauce is not simple at all. Ma Fu even inquired about it. It requires Zhuhou sauce, star anise soy sauce, rose wine and some spices.

Many stores have their own secret recipes, and some ingredients are difficult to make and find, so each hotel or restaurant brings a new feeling to itself.

It was indeed very delicious, but Ma Fu even thought that if he added a little more red oil, would it be more to his liking?

But friends on the coast will probably not be able to stand this kind of taste. The taste of red oil will probably make their mouths "explode".

After clearing the food on the table and waiting for the waiter to come in again, Ma Fu still needs to understand the last details in more detail so that he can make a comprehensive judgment.

"Is it over yet? Did the two of them quarrel in the end?"

Ma Fu picked up the paper towel on the table and started to wipe it. He had a very comfortable meal. He ordered four classic Cantonese dishes by himself and ate them all.

"It was over, everyone had left, and the two finally had a heated argument. The guest with the list was very angry and left the table 10 minutes early.

The rest of the people didn't seem to take it too seriously and held a brief meeting. Then the guest sitting at the main seat seemed satisfied, and everyone paid the bill and left. "

The waiter told Ma Fu what happened next door, and he immediately saw a smile on his face.

After taking out his mobile phone to pay the bill, he left some tips for the waiter, touched his slightly bulging belly, and walked out of the private room happily.

Now it's time for tea.

Ma Fu usually doesn't have this habit. After eating, he has some tea soup for digestion, but he must have it tonight.

Because from the observations over the past few days, it can be concluded that the special envoy named Nava particularly likes drinking coffee and will go to the coffee shop to sit for a while after the meal every night.

And if Nava is so depressed tonight, he will definitely go to the coffee shop to relax. Once he finds the right one, it will be his time to show off his "skills".

The hotel's coffee shop was on the first floor. After Mafu walked in, he took a quick glance and soon spotted Nava sitting in the corner. He was standing there holding a cup of coffee, with a very ugly expression on his face.

Ma Fu walked over slowly, without making direct contact with him, and chose to sit at a table next to him. After waiting for the waiter to come, he ordered a cup of coffee, and then picked up the magazine next to him and started reading.

Ma Fu's attention has not been on the magazine in his hand. Instead, he is observing with the corner of his eyes while sipping coffee.

Not to mention, the Nanshan coffee in this cafe is very authentic, no wonder it is so expensive, but it is already amazing to have genuine products.

The expression on Nava's face next to him kept changing, sometimes angry, sometimes entangled, and sighing from time to time. It seemed that this envoy without real power was very angry.

Seeing that the fire was almost ready, Ma Fu first stood up and signaled, and soon the waiter from the coffee shop came over.

The young lady was very pretty, with waist-length hair, and decent work clothes, which made Ma Fu very fond of this cafe.

"I would like to ask, is this authentic Nanshan coffee?"

Ma Fu's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just to attract the attention of Na Wa next to him. Sure enough, from the corner of his eye, he could see that he had paid attention to this.

The young lady is also a little curious about this gentleman, especially his outfit, which has a very classical charm, and the most surprising thing is that he can speak Mandarin so well.

"Yes, sir, our boss personally purchased these coffee beans from the Blue Mountains of Jamaica, and they are definitely coffee beans with a height of over 1000 meters.

90% of the authentic coffee beans produced in Blue Mountain are bought by the Japanese, and only 10% are supplied to other countries. Our boss also spent a lot of effort to buy them. "

The waiter responded to Ma Fu politely and explained how difficult it was to purchase the coffee beans.

"Oh, yes, I have tasted it. This coffee is very authentic. I just want to ask if you can sell me some of these coffee beans?
I also know that these coffee beans are difficult to buy, and it is not easy to find authentic ones. Among the 100 coffee shops in this city, you are probably the only one selling genuine ones.

So you can set the price, and I don’t want much, just one pound. "

Ma Fu's "lion's big mouth" made the young lady a little stunned. Many people don't understand how difficult it is to buy coffee beans. There are already regulations in the store, let alone a catty, not a gram. selling.

But we can’t be rude and tell the customer that we won’t take out the coffee. After being surprised, the young lady immediately said with a smile: “I’m really sorry, our store has regulations that coffee beans are not taken out.

Because we don’t purchase much ourselves, we still have to maintain the store’s business, which is really embarrassing! "

The young lady said politely, this is not the first time, there are still many customers who have tasted the extraordinary quality of the coffee beans and asked to buy them. They are very experienced in handling such things.

"Oh, that's a shame. I just tasted the wonderful Cantonese food tonight, but it's a pity that I can't bring some authentic coffee beans to share with my friends.

Okay, I got it, thank you! "

Ma Fu's words were an ambush. If the special envoy didn't know him, he could find an opportunity to strike up a conversation and talk about everything from coffee to dishes.

Seeing that the problem had been solved, the young lady returned to the bar with a dinner plate. She thought to herself that if she could buy top-quality coffee beans, wouldn't it be very profitable to open a cafe?

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Ma Fu? A famous food hunter?"

When Ma Fu was about to sit down, Nava came over and asked with some uncertainty. He was speaking in English, so he must not be able to speak Chinese.

"Nonsense, of course. I'm just waiting for you to speak. After a long time, you still know me. It seems that I, Mr. Ma Fu, am still very famous in the food circle."

Ma Fu finally breathed a sigh of relief and was secretly happy. It was much more beneficial for Nava to take the initiative than to contact him personally.

After making a very surprised look, Ma Fu turned around and asked: "Oh, yes, I am Ma Fu. You look a bit unfamiliar. Have we met somewhere?"

"Oh my god, it's really you. I saw your photo in a food magazine, so I took the liberty to ask. I didn't expect to see you in person.

Let me introduce myself, my name is Nava.
Thai people, this time I came to China in search of delicious food. I am honored to meet Mr. Ma Fu, who has unique insights into delicious food. Do you have time?
Can we chat for a while? "

After Nava confirmed Ma Fu's identity, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he wanted to know more about the food situation in China with Ma Fu.

Especially about Sichuan cuisine, this will help me think of a counterattack plan just now. I can't bear the anger these days in vain, I must fight back.

You need to let that arrogant Zhalun understand the consequences of provoking him. He is the princess's special envoy and has the right to supervise. It's time to let you know what the right to supervise means.

"Yes, big brother, you are so capable!"

Ma Fu muttered silently in his heart, but his face did not show the joy. Instead, he was slightly surprised and invited him to sit across from him.

“You just heard that I wanted to buy coffee beans from Blue Mountain, right?
Do you have channels over there?

The price is no problem, as long as the goods are genuine, I want as much as I want. If the quantity is large, we can talk about the commission.

Don't worry, the commission will not be less, you can mention it, let's discuss it.

in the case of."

Of course, Ma Fu would not get straight to the point. Instead, he took the opportunity to make random remarks and regarded Na Wa as a broker.

As Nava listened, he realized that something was wrong. It seemed that he did not tell his true identity, and the other party directly regarded him as a second-rate dealer.

Did we directly talk about coffee beans?

I am the princess's special envoy, not a waiter in a shop. What I want to talk about is whether the food is good, so Nava quickly interrupted Ma Fu and continued "nonsense".

"Sorry, Mr. Ma Fu, I think you may have misunderstood. Let me introduce my identity again. I am the special envoy of Princess Sirena of Thailand.

This time I came to China to inspect the food for the princess’s birthday banquet. "

The expression on Nawa's face became a little more serious, and he solemnly introduced his identity again - the special envoy of the princess.

Ma Fu secretly smiled secretly, with a surprised look on his face again, and said a little apologetically: "I'm sorry, Mr. Nava, I misunderstood, please sit down, please sit down!"

Ma Fu made a very sincere invitation, which made Nava immediately feel the honor brought by his status as a special envoy.

"Okay, I'm very happy to see you here. I would like to ask, are you visiting China?"

After Nawa sat down, he began to inquire about Ma Fu's activities. He had nothing to say. After all, he was not familiar with Ma Fu, so he had to get acquainted first.

Ma Fu nodded and said, "Absolutely. In fact, the main purpose of my coming to China is to find delicious food, and tourism is secondary.

There are so many delicacies in China that I never want to leave. I almost don’t want to go back to Europe. "

Ma Fu gave full play to his "magic stick" spirit and began to make up a story. Nava on the opposite side had no doubts at all and kept nodding in response.

“You are absolutely right, Chinese cuisine is indeed very exquisite, and once you try it once, you will fall in love with it without hesitation.

By the way, I just have something to ask you. Among the Chinese delicacies, which cuisine is famous for its light dishes? "

Nava did not give up the opportunity. After Ma Fu introduced the topic, he immediately jumped in and communicated much faster than the Chinese people.

The show is coming!

Ma Fu acted as if he was very interested in this topic, thought for a while and said: "There are eight major cuisines in Huaxia, and when it comes to bland cuisine, Cantonese cuisine and Huaiyang cuisine are the most recommended.

These two cuisines are not only good at being light, the key is that the dishes are very exquisite, and the preparation of banquet dishes has its own unique charm. "

Ma Fu adopted a hard-to-get approach and deliberately did not mention Sichuan cuisine. First, it was to reduce Nava's doubts about the relationship between himself and Yipin.

Secondly, if he takes the initiative to raise the issue of Sichuan cuisine, he will provide assistance and let him strengthen his belief, so as to achieve the best effect.

This is the highest level of deception. Make the other party willing to be deceived by you, and while being deceived, they also think that what you say makes sense.

"What you said makes sense. Cantonese cuisine is indeed very light and the dishes are very exquisite. The same is true for Huaiyang cuisine.

Besides these two cuisines, is there any other cuisine that makes light dishes that are exquisite? "

Nawa also thought carefully.I also want to see if this legendary "food hunter" is as powerful as the legend says.

It is said that the upper echelon in Europe highly respects him. He can help customers find different delicacies, and he can always satisfy customers.

"Huh~?"

Ma Fu pretended to think carefully and said slightly proudly: "You may not believe it, but in fact, Sichuan cuisine is as good as Cantonese and Huaiyang cuisine in making light dishes.

It's just that there are too few Sichuan chefs who can make these exquisite dishes, and even if there are, they don't know many dishes.

Moreover, the lack of some traditional ingredients and the decline in the quality of the ingredients have cut off the inheritance of these exquisite Sichuan dishes, which is a pity! "

Ma Fu pushed up his glasses and showed the appearance of a man with a wealth of knowledge, which immediately shocked Na Wa.

It really is better to be famous than to meet each other. From his mouth, he has confirmed the information he has found, especially the traditional Sichuan cuisine, which is absolutely unique.

In the past few days, I have used translation software to find a lot of useful information. This restaurant called Yipin on the recommendation list can make traditional Sichuan cuisine.

The information found on the Internet was directly traced back to Xiaopo Station, where he saw videos of those exquisite dishes. Those exquisite dishes simply blinded Nava's eyes.

But there were only two shortcomings that made Nava hesitate. First, there were relatively few dishes, and second, he couldn't taste them because boutiques require reservations. How could he have the ability and strength to reserve a spot in a boutique?
If you can't taste a dish, no matter how delicious it is, you won't be able to go back and report it to the princess.

The key is that the inspection team does not have any contact with Yipin, and he has no real power. He wants to vent the bad breath in his heart, but he has never thought of a good way.

"I think so too. I have previously found a restaurant called Yipin on the Internet. The traditional dishes they make are very exquisite, but it is really difficult to taste them.

Let me tell you the truth, this time I helped the princess come here to inspect the restaurant in order to choose a restaurant with the best light dishes and go to Thailand to prepare a birthday banquet for the princess.

I originally planned to check out the Yipin restaurant, but I was denied by the leader of the group. He thought that Sichuan cuisine only made spicy dishes.

And I don’t think Yipin is capable of hosting the princess’s birthday banquet, because it is just a restaurant and does not have a strong team.

So they were not even interested in going to inspect it, but I saw that this time when Michelin reviewed his branch, a chef went to the site to help.

So I think this restaurant must have some background, but unfortunately I can’t go and find out this time because I’m going back to Thailand tomorrow. "

Nava did feel a little helpless. As the princess's special envoy, he also wanted to make his own contribution and show some personal style. Everyone knew this.

Ma Fu's next words made him see hope immediately, and he stood up from his seat instantly.

"Oh~! You're talking about Boss Chu. I know him. I tasted a very exquisite dish in his boutique with two European Michelin three-star chefs some time ago."

Ma Fu spoke calmly, then picked up the coffee on the table and tasted it gracefully.
