Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
134 Hongxing Food Street.
It was a 150-square-meter store that had become a private restaurant.
There was a marble plaque at the door, on which were written four words—
Eight-year-old canteen!
This restaurant was exactly 200 meters away from the entrance of Hongxing Food Street. It was the prime location of the entire street.
Xu Le specially contacted Peng Yan to rent this shop.
At this moment.
Xu Le stood at the entrance of the shop, feeling a little nervous.
The renovation of the shop was completed by the system, so Xu Le did not know what the interior design was like.
This was his first time entering it, so everything was still unknown to him.
Xu Le pushed open the door and his eyes widened.
He involuntarily let out a cry of surprise.
“Wow! So beautiful!”
His younger sister behind had the same reaction as Xu Le.
The shop environment here was simply too exquisite.
The entire restaurant was black and white. It was decorated with mahogany furniture with various Chinese elements in the decorations.
The design of the restaurant was fresh and elegant, rich with cultural connotations. There was a picture scroll on the left wall, and it lacked some aura of life.
On the picture scroll was the recipe for [Eight-year-old canteen]:
A big, greasy bowl of broad noodles—Oil doused noodles
The collision between fresh chicken and crispy peanuts—Kung Pao chicken
Sweet and sour taste warming the stomach, and even more for the heart—Tomato egg soup
Perfect integration and collision of top-notch ingredients—Golden Egg Fried Rice
A Sichuan dish that brings huge refreshment in the mouth-Mapo Tofu
The divine appetiser for authentic taste—Old Vinegar Radish
The extraordinary cooking method of ordinary dishes—Roasted Spicy Potato Shreds
Art-like exquisite dish—Pagoda Meat
The delicacy from the imperial kitchen of the Qing Palace—Boiled Cabbage
Possessing the unique flavor of osmanthus sweet wine—Special Chiffon Cake
The nourishing soup that was brewed for more than three hours—Pot of chicken soup
——————
The scroll depicted all the dishes in Xu Le’s restaurant.
Most of them were common home-cooked dishes.
However, there were also side dishes like Old Vinegar Radish, as well as delicacies like Boiled Cabbage.
The price was also based entirely on the cost of different dishes.
For example, the simplest [Tomato Egg Soup] cost only eight yuan per bowl.
However, the most expensive dish, the [Golden Egg Fried Rice], was sold at 388 yuan per plate and there was a limit of 20 plates served per day.
After all, in this plate of Egg Fried Rice, all kinds of high-end ingredients had been used, including the special cooking method of the chef.
Xu Le was very satisfied with the decoration of the restaurant.
The [exquisite renovation] rewarded by the system was even more high-class than what he had expected.
Whether it was the tables, chairs, kitchenware, or cutlery, they were already very considerately prepared for Xu Le.
As long as Xu Le bought enough ingredients, he could open for business anytime.
“Then let’s open for business tomorrow!”
Xu Le’s eyes were sparkling as he looked at the entire dining area. His entire face was filled with excitement. freeweb novel.com
He was so pleased!
This place was exactly the same as the restaurant he imagined!
Xu Le was full of confidence in his future business.
…
The next day.
It was the day of the official opening of [Eight-year-old canteen].
It was extremely lively at the entrance of the shop. All sorts of media platforms and local television stations had come to interview.
The most influential one was the interview by CCTV.
The person in charge of interviewing Xu Le was the most famous CCTV host in recent years, Wang Bingbing. With her sweet and infectious smile, she became popular on the Internet and had tens of millions of fans in less than a year.
Other than the reporters, there were also many chefs and Xu Le’s friends who came to congratulate him.
For example, Zhang Tong, Ms. Li, Peng Yan… Even Chef Lin Shuwei came to Xu Le’s restaurant to celebrate with him.
This made Xu Le very happy.
After all, Chef Lin’s understanding of culinary skills and the dishes he invented made Xu Le admire him greatly.
To Xu Le, Lin Shuwei could be considered a chef who was like his idol.
Soon, it was time for the interview. fr(e)ewebnovel.com
Wang Bingbing crouched beside Xu Le with a sweet smile on her face.
She handed the microphone to Xu Le and said softly, “Xu Le, let’s introduce ourselves first.”
“Hello everyone, my name is Xu Le. I’m eight years old this year.”
“I’m the owner of the ‘Eight-year-old canteen’ behind me and the only chef in the restaurant.”
Wang Bingbing nodded. “Xu Le, why do you have such superb culinary skills at the age of eight? Can you tell us how you learned how to cook?”
When Xu Le heard this question, his brain started processing rapidly.
He definitely could not say that he had learned cooking from the system.
So… he could only make it up.
“My parents are both chefs,” Xu Le said after thinking for a while.
This was not a lie. Xu Le’s parents were indeed chefs, and they had already gone to France to further improve on their culinary skills.
“I’ve been learning to cook from my parents since I was young. I like to cook too. Since I was four or five, I’ve been experimenting with various dishes in the kitchen.”
“I often search through all kinds of recipes online and make many attempts on my own.”
“I may be young now, but I’m already an experienced chef with three to four years of experience!”
Xu Le said proudly.
When the surrounding people heard this, they all showed expressions of admiration.
The Little Master Chef was indeed extraordinary. He had been cooking since he was four or five years old. Was this true talent?
The interview continued.
Then, Xu Le also advertised for his restaurant Eight-year-old canteen on CCTV, even though he was already very popular on the Internet.
Next, CCTV would be having a live broadcast for three days in the [Eight-year-old cafeteria].
So that Xu Le could show off his superb culinary skills to the audience!
