Bringing my kids to set up stalls, I made thousands of people cry with envy

Chapter 468: Finding the original intention

Chapter 468 Recovering the original intention
“Boss Su’s cooking skills are obvious to all. Why are you nitpicking here? What are you talking about?”

“Isn’t it the right attitude for a chef to respect food and taste it carefully?”

“Food is for enjoyment and to bring happiness to people, not to be used as a tool for comparison and competition.”

As soon as the words fell, the dining table, which had originally had a somewhat lively atmosphere, suddenly became quiet.

Hu Yuan and Hong Yucheng looked at Fang Fang in surprise.

Yang Lin trembled even more, and was completely stunned. He stared at Fang Fang blankly, his eyes full of shock and thought.

Perhaps this may sound a bit pretentious, as to others it is just a small episode during the meal.

But at this moment, Yang Lin, who had suffered a series of heavy blows in the cooking skills comparison and was even a little depressed, was truly hit by Fang Fang’s words in the softest part of his heart.

A chef’s mentality, or original intention.

Yang Lin himself can hardly remember it.

He could only vaguely recall that when he first decided to become a chef, he simply wanted to cook delicious dishes.

At that time, all he wanted was to make delicious dishes that would satisfy himself.

He clearly remembered the happy and satisfied smiles on his parents’ faces when they ate the food he cooked.

Also, at home, he personally cooked a table full of sumptuous dishes to entertain his childhood friends.

Friends gathered around the dining table, feasting on the food, with cheers and sincere thanks.

The feeling of being recognized and loved strengthened his determination to continue on the path of becoming a chef.

Even his wife, who is by his side now, got together with him because of delicious food.

He personally prepared a work lunch box for her, who was just an ordinary friend at the time, thus establishing their relationship and eventually leading to marriage.

I still remember that he stood at the door of Le Cordon Bleu College full of longing.

All he thought about was how to improve his cooking skills in this famous institution, learn more techniques and knowledge, and make more delicious and amazing dishes.

I don’t know when it started, but he became obsessed with personal glory and paid too much attention to the voices of the outside world.

Perhaps it was the comments from those gourmets, or perhaps it was the olive branches extended by several Michelin restaurants.

He increasingly focused his energy on seeking personal recognition and praise from the outside world.

I have forgotten the person who once simply loved cooking just to bring happiness and satisfaction to others.

Fang Fang felt the strangely quiet atmosphere at the table and wondered, “Why are you all silent?”

As soon as she said this, she suddenly realized that she seemed to have just ruthlessly criticized the chef of this restaurant!

Her heart skipped a beat.

He is the head chef and he manages so many waiters. If I anger him, won’t I get beaten?

Thinking of this, Fang Fang couldn’t help but shrink her neck, wondering what she should say quickly to ease the tense atmosphere.

At this moment, Yang Lin took a deep breath, slowly stood up and looked at Fang Fang.

“I’m going to do that, I don’t want to hit anyone!”

When Fang Fang saw this, she was startled and instinctively shrank back.

It felt like in the next second, Yang Lin would give an order, and then eight hundred waiters would rush into the kitchen with knives and surround her aggressively.

“how could be?!”

Yang Lin was immediately confused by Fang Fang’s sudden reaction. His emotions, which had finally calmed down, were almost incoherent again. He shook his head helplessly, quickly put on a sincere and serious expression, and said sincerely: “I just want to thank you, Ms. Fang Fang. What you said just now made me think about some things.”

“Eh~”

Fang Fang was suddenly confused.

She looked Yang Lin up and down, and after making sure that Yang Lin was not speaking in a sarcastic way, her mind started working rapidly.

After thinking for two seconds, he asked innocently, “Did I just say something very philosophical? I don’t have any impression of it at all.”

“What you just said is indeed quite good.”

Hu Yuan smiled and nodded, giving him an approving look.

“That sentence?”

Fang Fang tried hard to recall.

She racked her brains but still couldn’t remember.

The main reason is that she sometimes speaks in a hurry and without thinking, and she often forgets everything she said right after she opens her mouth.

At this moment, she only vaguely remembered that she seemed to have said a lot of offensive words just now, but she forgot how she said it specifically.

“You said that a chef should respect food and taste it carefully.”

Looking at Fang Fang’s confused expression, Yang Lin had no choice but to repeat it again.

When Fang Fang heard this, her eyes widened in surprise:
“Did I just say something so philosophical?”

Then, she showed a happy expression on her face again, and said with a hint of boasting: “Ah, it’s me as expected! I’ll write this down on my phone and tell the boss of the mutton noodle shop downstairs from my house again!!”

“The portions are obviously smaller than before, and the quality of the meat is worse! I don’t know if they are trying to cut corners and rip off regular customers like us.”

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the three people at the table except her suddenly became very interesting, and their emotions were all messed up.

Hong Yucheng looked at Fang Fang speechlessly. He really wanted to ask her if she was a goldfish, as she only had a few seconds of memory.

I could forget exactly what I just said the moment I turned around.

Fang Fang didn’t notice anyone’s strange looks at all. She still excitedly took out her cell phone and wrote down this sentence carefully.

After taking note, she rubbed her hands in anticipation and couldn’t wait to taste the next dish.

On the other side, Yang Lin also slowly sat down again. His eyes were less entangled and unwilling than before, and he had completely calmed down.

Just as Fang Fang said, a chef’s attitude towards food should be respect and taste it carefully.

He realized that Mr. Su’s craftsmanship deserved his utmost respect.

In the kitchen, Su Chen was still busy at the stove, preparing the next three dishes.

He picked up a fresh shrimp with skillful techniques, and with a light pinch of his fingers, he peeled off the shell.

Next, cut open the shrimp’s back and pick out the black shrimp line.

The processed shrimps are gently placed in a clean bowl, sprinkled evenly with a thin layer of cornstarch, gently stirred with chopsticks, and then the bowl is placed in the refrigerator.

While waiting for the shrimps to be refrigerated, Su Chen was not idle at all.

He quickly took the olives, celery, leeks and Chinese celery to the sink and washed them one by one.
