Chapter 183 “We don’t use a soup spoon to scoop it, mind your manners! Sit down! Use chopsticks!”
“Hey, I was wondering why the chef’s skills were inconsistent, turns out it’s not the same person.”
“This garlic sauce pork and spicy boiled fish must be from the same person,” said the middle-aged man confidently.
“Little cutie from Mr. Shen’s family, are you saying your dad made this?”
“Yes, I recognize this taste, it must be my dad who made it~,” Lu Xiyao said with clear and firm eyes.
“Your dad is the chef at Wangjing No.1?”
Shen Muyan explained, “Her dad was invited to make liver paste soup, and after helping, we’re heading back to Jiangcheng.”
The guests at the table looked at Shen Muyan, hearing that the final dish, liver paste soup, was something they were eagerly anticipating. To their surprise, the person invited from Jiangcheng to make the dish was none other than Mr. Shen’s wife.
“His culinary skills are amazing!”
The garlic sauce pork and the spicy boiled fish were absolutely delicious. These people’s taste buds were getting unprecedented satisfaction. As the dishes were served, everyone was more enthusiastic toward Shen Muyan and her daughter, eagerly hoping there would be more of these tasty dishes.
At the table of ten, the two dishes were not enough to satisfy everyone’s craving. People who usually acted with elegance, even during meals, were now rushing to get their share.
From the moment the garlic sauce pork was served, their eyes were glued to the dish, mentally urging, “Hurry, pass it over!”
By the second round, there was barely any garlic sauce left in the dish. When the spicy boiled fish arrived, everyone quickly learned to grab it fast—slow eaters would have nothing left.
“Hey! Hey! Mr. Li, no using a soup spoon! Mind your manners! Sit down! Use chopsticks!”
When the dish reached Mr. Li, he shamelessly scooped a large portion of the fish with a big soup spoon, taking about a third of it for himself.
Was he operating a bulldozer in the past?
The big bowl of spicy boiled fish lasted until the second round before it was finished. Immediately, someone praised Shen Muyan.
“Mr. Shen, your spouse has redefined what delicious boiled fish is!”
“The fish is so tender, the spiciness tingles your tongue, it’s truly satisfying!”
“I’ve never had such delicious spicy boiled fish!”
The word “spouse” sounded quite sweet to Shen Muyan. She smiled faintly, wanting to say something like “Eat more,” but saw that the whole bowl of fish had already been wiped clean.
The few business elites who once had inappropriate thoughts about Shen Goddess were now completely extinguished. It was no wonder people say the way to a woman’s heart is through her stomach. With such unbeatable culinary skills, how could Shen Goddess not be charmed?
Not long after, the waiter brought out a plate of twice-cooked pork, its rich, mouth-watering aroma making everyone drool.
“This is definitely Chef Lu’s work!”
Someone confirmed it with the waiter and got a positive response. Wow, a true “rice companion” dish had arrived!
The whole table suddenly sounded like a clinking of chopsticks. A neighboring table looked over to see the guests devouring their food silently, completely absorbed.
“Why are you guys only eating one dish?”
“Hey, why don’t we have any twice-cooked pork?”
“How come we’re treated differently?”
Looking at the twice-cooked pork, they couldn’t resist.
“We don’t have it because Chef Lu’s wife and daughter are here, he specially made extra dishes for them,” the waiter explained. The most update n0vels are published on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡~𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚~𝙣𝙚𝙩
The guests at the table, now aware, felt embarrassed, but they couldn’t help but feel disappointed.
After the twice-cooked pork was served to Shen Muyan and her daughter, everyone else let them have more. Shen Muyan felt pleased, as her relationship with Boss Lu had really earned her some face.
Another round of food was served: crystal shrimp dumplings. These dumplings had translucent skins revealing the tender shrimp inside, looking irresistible. Again, it was Chef Lu’s handiwork. Other tables had no such dish, and everyone waited for it to arrive at Shen Muyan’s table.
When the dish arrived, no one touched their chopsticks until it reached them. They all waited for Shen Muyan and her daughter to start.
Shen Muyan served herself one dumpling, gave her daughter two, and said, “Let’s all eat together.”
It felt like how court officials wait for the emperor to start eating before they are allowed to. The vanity was real, and the rich lady accepted it gladly, feeling quite satisfied.
A guest from a nearby table, noticing, leaned over and asked, “Is it good, the crystal shrimp dumpling?”
“It’s incredible, even better than the authentic ones from our hometown in Lingnan!”
One elderly gentleman, who was from Lingnan, said the dumplings were better than those in his hometown.
“Can I have a taste?” He politely asked.
These were high-profile guests, so it was unusual for one to ask for food from another table. But the elderly man had spoken, and out of respect, they allowed him a taste. The guests at the neighboring table were all envious.
After tasting, the old man’s face lit up, and he shouted, “Damn, this is so good!”
This loud exclamation left everyone stunned. The elderly man, who had previously been polite, now completely let loose.
Wealthy people with no manners, too, frequently cursed, making Shen Muyan glance at him coldly, covering her daughter’s ears.
“What did you just hear?” She whispered.
“I didn’t hear anything~!”
The little one had a built-in filtering system for the adult world.
But from the old man’s enthusiastic reaction, it was clear that the crystal shrimp dumplings were truly delicious!
That mother and daughter duo were really lucky! Their dad sure spoiled them!
