Soon the dishes were served one by one, filling the big table with plates of thin slices of meat and vegetables packed in delicate little baskets.
All the government officials couldn't help but marvel at this ingenuity and found it really interesting.
"No wonder everyone is happy to come over and actually eat. This is much more fun than usual meals!"
"No!"
In addition to these, there is also a large plate of fried rice, several pastries and fruits that can be eaten directly.
The waiter smiled and explained: "The bottom of the pot is all up now. You can just put whatever you like to eat into it. It's best to close the lid and cook for a while."
He said he was worried about the inexperience of some of the government officials, so he specially prepared several dipping sauces for them.
"Try it first. If you don't like it, the food table is next to the stairs on the second floor. You can mix it as you like, just go and try it."
Such instructions are thoughtful enough.
The government officials finally understood the process of eating hot pot here, and they didn't panic anymore. They quickly thanked the waiter. The waiter also said that they should, "If the charcoal fire is not enough, just ask us!"
After saying that, the waiter stepped back and left them their own space. Only then did they relax completely.
"Quick, quick, pour down all this meat. This meat looks so fresh!"
"Yes, I can't wait any longer. Let's just boil a pot first and then rinse it slowly later!"
"Some food, too!"
"Hey, this rice is so delicious! Come on, eat something to satisfy your stomach. The waiters here at Miss Song's place are so considerate. They are worried that we will wait for the meat on an empty stomach, and even specially brought such a plate of rice. It's so delicious! "
This large plate of fried rice is also rich in ingredients, including eggs, shrimps and other side dishes. You can’t help but be satisfied after one bite!
Everyone immediately started grabbing it.
It's really delicious when you eat it. The fried rice is so fragrant, and the snacks there are also exquisite and delicious. It's dry in winter, and the fruits are also very sweet, so it's very comfortable to eat.
"delicious!"
"Miss Song will definitely get better and better in the future. Even if she doesn't win the cooking competition, her shop will make enough money to last her a lifetime!"
"Ah, bah, bah, Miss Song is such a nice person, how can you say that to her?"
"that is."
"Oh, really, look at my mouth, I'm just talking nonsense! Gods and gods shouldn't blame me for my mouth. They have to bless Miss Song to win in the end!"
"Exactly!"
While they were eating, they had to say good things about Song Yue, and they were very grateful. They could have a big meal for free, and no one else could grab a seat, but they could be invited over. This kind of differential treatment also made them feel very happy. beautiful.
Qin Duruo was much quieter than them, eating alone and silently.
The other government officials didn't pay attention to him for a while, they were all grabbing food. After eating other things, they waited for the copper stove hot pot to boil. The fried rice was delicious, the pastries were delicious, and the fruit tasted very good. It was a pity that they had finished eating. I’m too embarrassed to ask for it again.
Still measured.
Fortunately, the copper stove hotpot cooks quite quickly? The charcoal fire inside was so powerful that it started to boil in no time. It was steaming gurglingly and the aroma of meat wafted out.
"Is this edible? These slices of meat are so thin, they must be cooked!"
"Okay, okay!"
"Hurry up and bring the bowls and chopsticks. Let each of you share some first. After you pick it up, put down a few plates of meat!"
"Hiss, um, this dish is delicious too! The tofu is also delicious! Put more vegetables in it!"
They are a bunch of people who are not very particular. Today is the first day of business. Not to mention they are a bunch of hungry people. Even some wealthy people are a little embarrassed to eat. They have not yet learned how to eat, but the meat is too much. tasty.
Almost all of them stew it in one pot as they please, and the more sophisticated ones rinse it piece by piece, while the less particular ones are just like the yamen servants, pouring it down one plate after another.
The waiter will share eating methods and techniques when he has time, and when he has no time, he can follow the customers freely.
So don’t dislike anyone.
This thin slice of meat is cooked quickly as it rolls in the boiling soup base.
Each of them filled half a bowl, and they were overwhelmed as soon as they took their mouths. It smells so good! !
One of the youngest yamen servants slapped his thigh directly, "Great!!"
This meat is so delicious!
"How can there be such delicious meat? It's not woody at all, it's actually soft!"
“So tender, so tender!”
"This spicy one is delicious! This one is delicious too!"
Qin Duruo also gradually let go of some messy thoughts and began to indulge in delicious food, enjoying it with his other subordinates. He was so happy.
They were too embarrassed to order again.
But the waiter was more diligent than they expected. One moment he would bring them another bottle of sake, one bottle of juice, etc., and the next moment he would bring them hot towels to wipe their hands and mouths. He would also refill the dishes when they saw that they were nearly finished.
Although everyone was embarrassed, they were still greedy, so they didn't say anything. When they came to their senses, they all ate with full stomachs.
They were all stunned.
I was a little embarrassed to sit on the chair, and I was afraid of delaying the closing of the door.
As a result, I heard that it was quite lively downstairs.
Snowflakes drifted in from time to time outside the window, but they were still some distance away from their table.
The contrast between the outside and inside of the house immediately made them feel comfortable again, and they just felt that they were enjoying themselves! Little did he know that this was also Song Yue's little thought.
When the weather outside is particularly bad, happiness inside the house doubles.
As expected, they were all fascinated.
Everyone couldn't help but smile happily and sit lazily eating, but when everyone thought about it later, they realized that they had eaten a lot!
So they felt guilty and embarrassed, fearing that the waiter would dislike them for eating too much, but the waiter still looked enthusiastic.
After learning that they were leaving, they were given a final wave of hot towels to wash their faces and hands, and even went downstairs to tell them to be careful on the road.
The yamen servants were very well-behaved. When they went downstairs, they saw that there were still a few tables of diners, but there were piles of plates on their tables. The rich man had money and his family was very well-dressed. He said with a loud smile: "This is It’s a great meal! How can our family eat so much? It proves how delicious your food is! It should be rewarded! It should be rewarded!”
The host and hostess of this wealthy family are both fat and big-eared. Fortunately, they have friendly smiles. Their family is also full. They said they deliberately left the plates to see how much they could eat. After calculating the accounts, their family ate. Nearly twenty taels.
The government officials sighed and felt even more guilty when they thought about what they were eating.
The waiter in the shop was diligent in removing the plates, and would often remove the empty plates when new dishes were brought in. But they just ate with their heads down, and they really ate a lot.
I'm really glad that Miss Song is so generous.
Qin Duruo also felt embarrassed when he went out last. He was used to being honest, so how could he be so embarrassed to just eat for free? He took out some broken silver and asked for money.
The waiter was startled, then quickly pushed him back, "Hey, brother Yamen can't do it! Our boss agreed to treat you, but I can't accept the money!"
