Cooking Genius With God

Choosing the menu, finding a truck, and deciding the location of the business.

There are three procedures to do while preparing for the food truck business.

There are details such as registering a business or getting permission, but skip it first.

Of these three, one day I finished deciding on the menu.

In the end, it was none other than a grilled short rib sandwich that was decided.

It was perfect for the food truck business because it was easy to cook patties in advance, and it was delicious more than anything else with fast cooking time.

The menu was divided into "sweet Tteokgalbi sandwiches," "cheese Tteokgalbi sandwiches," and "chili Tteokgalbi sandwiches," respectively.

The cheese tteok-galbi sandwich had plenty of mozzarella cheese, and the chili tteok-galbi sandwich was sprinkled with handmade chili sauce made with red pepper paste.

Sandwiches cost between 5,000 won and 6,000 won each.

We decided to sell small drinks such as coke and cider together.

Since it was a food that could cater to most people regardless of age, Haru and Choi Han-seok had high expectations.

And next Monday after the menu development is over.

Haru, who signed the used car contract excitedly, listened to the car keys.

"Hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Beep beep!

When I pressed the key button, I heard a cool horn sound from a large parked truck.

One of the big food trucks.

Even though it was used, the exterior glazed as if it had just been shipped out.

"Trucks are over!"

It's a truck, but it's like a moving restaurant for a day.

It's a food truck that sells delicious sandwiches to people until evening, and a cart bar that serves ghosts a warm meal around midnight.

It was a precious store that would fill the stomach of many people regardless of the world and world.

Looking at the truck as if he liked the day, Choi Han-seok next to him snorted.

- You're so lucky. How can you come to see a used truck and get such a great sale? It's crazy to find a food truck these days because it's picking stars in the sky.

"I know. Why, the used car dealer said that, too. It's like heaven helped me. I heard you've never seen anything like this before. Is heaven really helping you because you did a lot of good things?”

Normally, I would have told you not to say nonsense, but Haru, I think you might. You're the only one in the world who feeds ghosts.

Feed ghosts, loosen their limits, and make them holy fire.

Choi Han-seok said half-jokingly and half-sincerely, "I'll count those who do as good as you do."

Come to think of it, I've been very lucky lately.

There was a little noise during the last "It to Seoul," but since then, things have worked out as if they were sailing in a fair wind.

It makes me think that the preparation period, which was originally set as a month, can be moved up to 15 days.

Although I got enough time for a month by paying one holy prayer, the sooner I resume business, the better.

Haru shook his hand a little while listening to Choi Han-seok.

"Come on, come on. I'm trying to save my life anyway. That's what business is all about, isn't it?”

Hey, dude. You have a different meaning! Well, it's not wrong to say that we're doing business for a living. Anyway, it's weird that you're saying that!"What's that, Chef?"

The day when I was looking at Choi Han-seok, who failed to manage his facial expression, eventually burst into laughter.

Choi Han-seok, who was looking at a smiling day, turned the topic around.

By the way. We're almost done with the remodeling of the truck remodeling. The store is just around the corner.

"I'm nervous to death, too. I hope business goes well...….”

In fact, remodeling trucks was not much of a problem.

It's over after putting up a custom-made sign and cleaning up a little.

There were some leftovers from making menus, but Haru, who had traveled to various restaurants since childhood, was like a piece of cake.

One day, I had a lot of experience in the restaurant industry.

Then there was only one left.

So where are you planning on doing business? Do you have anything in mind?

"Actually, I've been thinking about it for the last few days. When I think of sandwiches, there's one place that comes to mind."

- Any place you can think of? - Where?

"Noryangjin."

-Whoa!

Choi Han-seok, who heard the answer of the day, shrugged his eyes as if he was slightly surprised.

I asked Haru with a unique meaningful smile.

You're confident, aren't you?

A short comment.

But one day I was well aware of the meaning of that word.

No wonder, doing food truck business in Noryangjin was no different from walking on its own in the middle of the battlefield.

"I don't know about myself... to be honest. Instead, I know this. Money isn't the only purpose of my food truck business, is it?”

One day I could never settle for a food truck.

If you're going to do that, you didn't even come out with a oral story.

Food trucks are just passing by for a while to gain experience and strengthen their skills.

It's not a restaurant with its own name on the main page.

"I think Noryangjin, like a battlefield, is perfect for business experience. In other words, if you succeed in the business in Noryangjin, you have the ability to succeed anywhere in Korea.”

-You're absolutely right one by one, yeah. I'm so jealous of young chefs like you. I mean, the young one. Usually, you're off track, but if you have someone next to you. It's a big hit from time to time.

"Like Chef Choi Han-seok?"

- Yeah, like Haru.

The two met eyes and smiled.

In particular, Choi Han-seok looked at the day with a very satisfying answer.

Noryangjin

It is famous as a battlefield for students studying for the exam, but at the same time it is also a battlefield for food trucks.

There are hundreds of academies in Noryangjin, and every dawn it is filled with students.

To win a bloody contest, to get even one more right than the person sitting next to me.

Students in Noryangjin even save time to eat and grit their teeth to study.

Therefore, over time, food truck businesses developed.

A store that sells cheap, reliable, and instant food.

For students in Noryangjin, who lacked time and money, the food truck was simply perfect.

"My sandwich is filling and it's not that expensive, is it? In many ways, it's perfect for your taste."

That's true. It's a lot of food, and it tastes good. Someone made it and someone acknowledged it. Don't you think so?Choi Han-seok, who opens his chest as if he is praising himself.

The voice of Haru, who was playing along with his rhythm, was a little loud.

"Well, shall we go to Noryangjin tomorrow? I'm just looking into the business. There's a big difference between thinking like this and going there and feeling it."

A thousand hearings are not worth one seeing. He said, "If you lose, you'll win every game."

No matter how famous Noryangjin is as a food truck, it was very different from going there in person every day.

In preparing for the business, the survey of commercial districts was the most basic of the basics.

As expected, right? We have time, so let's take it easy and go around. I don't think your food will fail anyways.

"But there is a justification. The price of 5,000 won can be burdensome for Noryangjin students."

That's true. Unexpected variables are popping up. It's the charm and character of food truck business. Well, I think you can cover everything for one day.

Noryangjin, one of the areas in the Seoul metropolitan area known as food trucks along with the Han River, is famous for its unique characteristics.

It would not have been an illusion that excitement was greater than worry.

* * *

The very next morning, around 8:30.

Inside the subway filled with office workers on their way to work.

I didn't mean to come out this early, but I couldn't help it because I almost couldn't sleep all night.

I couldn't sleep because I was excited like a kindergarten student on the eve of the picnic.

He yawned as if he was a little tired, and looked at Choi Han-seok, who was floating in the air for a day stuck in a tight subway like bean sprouts.

"It's... very crowded."

Noryangjin is in the middle of the metropolitan area. Besides, it's the infamous line number one, right? It's the hell of course.

When he whispered that others might care, he replied as if nothing had happened.

It must have been just my feeling that Choi Han-seok's tone seemed to be making fun of him.

We arrived at Noryangjin Station after some time on Line 1.

As soon as I went out of the exit of the station, I saw a banner reading "Cup Bob Food Truck Street."

The smell of various foods that come in at the same time.

I naturally walked out into the street in the midst of crowds.

"Certainly, the business community does kill me. You just get out of the station and follow a straight line, and you'll see a food truck street."

Besides, everyone in front of the academy is crowded with students. It's almost a scam, right? If it's this big. If you take out Hongdae or Han River, you'll be able to count the size of the biggest commercial districts in Korea.

Most of the students with backpacks were on the street like Noryang.

There were several paired students, ranging from watching Internet lectures to walking down the street to just leaving the PC room.

But most of the destinations were similar.

To solve the problem of breakfast and lunch, we are heading to the place where food trucks are concentrated.

"This is Noryangjin's Cup Rice Street…….”

The street lined with medium-sized food trucks caught my eye.

Starting with cup rice, which is the representative type, food trucks selling many foods, such as rice noodles, sausage pancakes, cube steaks and tteokbokki, were densely packed.

As Choi Han-seok said, there is no room for other food trucks.

It's certainly a hell of a bargain. One cup rice starts at 3,000 won, and waffles start at 2,000 won. Rice noodles cost 3,500 won."There's a lot of price competition. I thought a lot about what to do with the price of the sandwich...….”

It was a price that I couldn't think of as Korea.

The amount of food that is not bad, and the price that cannot be compared to anywhere else.

That would be the biggest merit and advantage of the Noryangjin commercial district.

"Student, come here and eat. Everywhere else is similar anyway."

"Oh, what?"

"Yes, the student there. You didn't eat, did you?”

As I glanced around, a lady talked to Haru.

The familiar apron and a gentle smile were secretly friendly.

I was going to try street food anyway, so I went inside because I thought it was okay.
