Chapter 149, The second flavor of Wuwei Pavilion, Xianwei.
Early the next morning, Shi Ke, Mimasaku Subaru and Mouri Kogoro arrived as promised, gathered at the Five Flavor Pavilion, and headed to the morning fish market together.
Two hours later, Shi Ke and Mimasaku Subaru each carried a pole of fish and returned to Wumi Pavilion. As for Mouri Kogoro, Shi Ke rented a tricycle for him in order to take care of him, panting heavily.
I came back carrying three big buckets of fish and shrimp. When I got off the bus, I was pedaling on three wheels and my legs were shaking!
"Hey! Are you two trying to mess with me? Why did you rent me a tricycle? You trampled me to death!" Mouri Kogoro was sweating profusely from exhaustion!
"There's no way. You can't pick it up, so you have to pedal three wheels. The two of us have no less than you. I've given you a good tool, and you're not satisfied yet?" Shi Ke said, putting down the pole.
“There are trucks rented next to the fish market to help deliver goods.”
"Well... save money." Shi Ke turned his head, (?ω?).
"You obviously made so much money yesterday!! You told me to save money? You are obviously squeezing the human labor force!" Mouri Kogoro was furious,??(◣д◢)??.
"Okay, okay... don't be angry. Starting tomorrow, we will transport it by car."
"You will definitely change the recipe again tomorrow! Ordinary side dishes are also possible! Then you will definitely drag me into labor again!"
"You really know me. Let me tell you the truth. I plan to make meat, pork chops, etc. tomorrow. Do you think it will be artificial luck?"
"That's not true. Artificial transportation is not enough to eat. You can relax a little."
"Okay, I won't kid you anymore. I'm very busy today," Shi Ke said.
"Well. If your menu is really that way, we basically won't stop. We won't even have time to drink water." Mimasaku Subaru flexed his fingers.
"What's wrong? No confidence anymore? You two are the best at copying."
"Why don't you have confidence? I'm Subaru Mimasu! Just don't get tired and lie down, Mouri." Subaru Mizusaki grinned.
"Don't underestimate me!! No matter how long you do it, I will keep you company! Why am I a fool if you can't copy it?" Mouri Kogoro got angry and refused to steam the steamed buns to get some credit!
"Hmph! Then let's get started." Shi Ke threw the new scroll to Mouri Kogoro.
"Okay!" Mouri Kogoro took the scroll and ran out.
As soon as the store opened, a large crowd had already gathered, and more than a dozen reporters from the school newspaper crowded around to grab the headlines.
More than a dozen flash lights almost blinded Mouri Kogoro.
"Senior Mouri! Where is Senior Shike? We need to interview him! I know him." What the first junior high school student said made Kogoro Mouri stunned for a moment.
"Well...you guys take pictures of this first. I'll call him." Mouri Kogoro rubbed his eyes, hung the new scroll on the wall, turned around and entered the house.
The reporters crowded in front of the scroll. Those who had pens took notes, and those who had cameras took ten consecutive photos.
Then, everyone started to read the content.
"Wuweige, one flavor a day, today's theme is umami! Today we mainly deal in all kinds of seafood! We will officially open at ten o'clock in the morning! We will get off work on time at six o'clock in the evening! The menu will be officially announced at ten o'clock in the morning. The last item, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is only available
All ten portions were sold out yesterday, and it’s impossible to make them again after the moon festival is over, so don’t ask people to come to the dormitory to find me! If you miss the delicious food, you miss it! I’m very busy! Not to mention the money! You can sit down if you want to eat
Let’s fly to China! I’m not free!”
"Oh my God! I don't even do the business that comes to my door! Senior Shike is indeed as individual as ever!" Junior high school student Mitsuru Hayatsuda took a close-up with his camera and sighed.
After Mao Li closed the door, he breathed a big sigh of relief, "Oh my god! This is really going to make headlines in the school! Mr. Shi Ke, there are a lot of school newspaper reporters outside! Do you want to be interviewed? Otherwise
, they kept blocking the door and our store couldn’t open!”
"Well... I'll go out and deal with them."
"By the way, some of them said they knew you."
"Uh? Really? Is it that boy? I'll go out and have a look." Shi Ke thought for a while and had an idea.
As soon as the door opened, reporters immediately rushed forward, and Shi Ke was struck by the microphone.
"Stop!! Who put the microphone in my face again?! Be more professional!" Shi Ke shouted to scare everyone away.
"It was me. Someone pushed me." Hayatsuda Mitsuru raised his hand timidly.
"Hey...we meet again. What's the matter, why are you coming to my place to block the door this early in the morning?" Shi Ke thought he was an acquaintance and let it go.
"We want to interview you, Senior Shi Ke."
"I see. However, with so many of you asking for interviews, why can't I open the store today? Oh, by the way. You all seem to be reporters from the school newspaper, right? Why are so many people here?"
"I was afraid that you wouldn't accept the interview, so I had to use the crowd tactic. It was our president's idea. He must have first-hand news about your store." Mitsuru Hayatsu scratched the back of his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Hey... I'm really loving you. Okay, you stay, and everyone else can go. An exclusive interview with you around the clock should be enough, right?" Shi Ke scratched his head and patted Hayatsuda Mitsuru.
said the shoulder.
"Exclusive interview?"
"What's wrong? Are you still not satisfied? Then I have to trouble you to set up a camera and live broadcast the whole process. As long as it doesn't affect my opening of the store, I don't have any problem with you filming the live broadcast quietly."
"Yeah. It's settled!! I told the president that I will stay and watch the machine and the live broadcast!" Hayatsuda Mitsuru was afraid that Shi Ke would regret it.
"Okay. So, can the others withdraw?" Shi Ke looked at the other reporters.
"Haasuda, you are so lucky! You got the exclusive live broadcast. Come on, don't screw it up!" A high school student who looked a bit like an old-timer handed the camera he was carrying to Mitsuru Hayatsuda, and then called to other reporters.
He left to find news elsewhere, "Okay! Don't be stunned, I'll leave this to Hayatsuda! Let's go to other places!"
"Yes!!" The other reporters replied in unison. The old man was full of majesty.
"Senior..." Hayatsuda Mitsuru looked at the leaving figures of his companions, his eyes were quite moved.
"Don't be stunned. Find a suitable location to set up the camera. Just don't affect the guests' dining." Shi Ke said calmly.
"Hehehe...Senior Shi Ke, you really understand. But, I have already found the camera position. I have to carry it and take pictures wherever I go."
"Oh. That's okay. But please be careful where you stand and don't block the way of the guests and the chef." Shi Ke turned around and entered the kitchen.
"No problem! Senior Shi Ke! Shall I pat the kitchen first?" Hayatsuda Mitsuru followed.
"It doesn't matter. Don't talk too much, just take pictures quietly." Shi Ke waved his hand indifferently.
Asatsudamitsu stayed in the kitchen all morning and kept taking pictures, while Shike calmly handled some ingredients that had been prepared in advance.
When ten o'clock arrived, Shi Ke walked out of the kitchen, came to the door, and hung up today's menu himself.
The menu is divided into three levels, home cooking level, hotel level and banquet level.
One hundred home-cooked dishes, including sashimi, fish soup, grilled and fried, home-cooked stir-fry, all included, the prices are cheap and reasonable (Kaotai District), starting at 1,000 yen and capping at 5,000 yen.
Hotel-level, fifty dishes, minus the home-cooked stir-fry portion, and the level of materials and production methods has been improved several times. The unit price starts at 5,000 yen, and can often exceed 10,000 yen.
There are only three banquet packages for banquet levels. There are three levels: upper, middle and lower, the lower level is 500,000 per table, the middle level is 1 million per table, and the upper level is 5 million per table. The dishes are diverse, and most of them use special ingredients and
Dishes that cherish ingredients.
Important reminder: Our restaurant has a small staff, and the banquet level can only maintain three tables and five ordinary tables at the same time. If you need to dine, please wait in line or make a reservation in advance.
"Yo ho ho... I'm here again!" As soon as the menu was hung up, Kobayashi Gentian appeared next to Shi Ke.
"Sister Gendan, are you on guard?" Shi Ke tilted his head.
"Yes. The answer is correct, but there is no reward. There is also a set meal for five million per table! Is it all seafood?"
"Yes. There are fifteen dishes in total for the seafood banquet, all of which are seafood. However, I'm afraid it won't be enough for one person. The portion of my dishes is quite sufficient."
"Um... Oops... In this case, I can't buy the best. Huh? Home-cooked food level?"
"Um."
"Hmm...hehehe. The Buddha Jumping Over the Wall I bought yesterday was too rich, so let's lighten it up today. Is it open for business?" Kobayashi Ringtong looked at the menu for a while, and his eyes lit up, (?ω?).
"Yes. I will cook the dishes you want myself." Shi Ke nodded.
"Okay, okay. I'll order some sashimi first. The tuna rose flower sashimi platter, the squid sashimi trio, and the octopus leg flower knife platter. I'll order these three first."
Shi Ke nodded and called Xiaolin Gentian into the store, "No problem. You sit down first. I'll serve the food."
"Hurry up."
"I know." Shi Ke walked to the door of the kitchen, stretched out his hand and broke off the bricks on the wall. Click, the wooden wall folded up directly. The whole view of the kitchen immediately appeared in front of Xiaolin Gentian through the transparent tempered glass. The inlays in the kitchen
In the huge aquarium on the wall, lively sea fish swim energetically.
"Oh!! There is actually a mechanism! This aquarium is so handsome!" Kobayashi Ryodan's pair of starry eyes revealed her envious heart.
"Hehehe...please taste it." Shi Ke arrived with three dishes.
"Ah? Finished? I didn't even see you fishing. When you and I were ordering, Maori had already fished the fish. You just looked at the aquarium in a daze for one minute and thirty seconds. Thirty
One dish per second, the standard production time for sashimi." Shi Ke put down three dishes.
Tuna rose flower sashimi platter, tuna belly, brain, tail and fins are all removed with a sharp knife, cut into 5 mm thick and even slices, and plated into a rose flower shape from the inside to the outside according to the elasticity of the fish, with a drop of lemon on it
juice and yuzu juice to remove the fishy smell. The sauce uses Shike's special seasoning soy sauce made from various fish. You can help yourself with wasabi mustard and the like.
Eat three kinds of squid sashimi. Cut the squid head and head with a sharp knife, remove the squid mouth, tear off the fascia with bare hands, cut the squid fins with a flower knife and roll them into rolls, cut the squid meat into thin slices, arrange them into a fan shape along the center of the plate, and decompose the squid tentacles.
Come, put them one by one, blanch them in boiling water, quench them with ice water, and make them curl. The seasoning is also the special soy sauce made by Shike and wasabi mustard.
Octopus leg flower knife platter. Take a large octopus foot and beat it with a wooden stick until the muscles are relaxed. Cut off the sucker part, clean it and remove the fascia. Slice the octopus leg into a wheat flower knife. Put it in a pot and blanch it in water for 30 seconds and take it out.
, place on the plate. Thinly slice the octopus legs into wheat ears, and season with thin soy sauce. You can also add wasabi if you want.
Shi Ke also served rice to Kobayashi Gentian, along with baked dried fish.
"Oh ho ho! It's all seafood! This can be considered a simple seafood banquet! I'm going to start it!!" Xiaolin Ringtong clasped his hands together, prayed, picked up the bowl, and ate decisively.
Shi Ke smiled and went to the door of the store to greet the next customer. After a closer look, he saw that it was the ABC trio of spectators. These three formed a team, "This customer? Huh? It's you three again?"
What dishes would you like to order? Today is a seafood theme."
"We have brought enough money today. Let's have a medium-sized banquet. There are nine of us including family members. Is that okay?" Visitor B directly ordered.
"Yeah, no problem. I'm satisfied. Please go to the big table upstairs. Please, Mao Li, could you please go upstairs and serve me." Shi Ke made a sign of invitation toward the stairs leading upstairs.
"Okay. Dear guests, please." Mouri Kogoro came out of the kitchen, having changed into a waiter's suit, and welcomed the three onlookers upstairs.
The stone guest was stunned. A man named Mouri Kogoro could change clothes at the speed of light.
"Shike, don't be in a daze. You don't have time to run away when you're cooking a mid-level banquet-level dish." Meisaku Subaru knocked on the glass.
"Oh, here we come." Shi Ke walked into the kitchen and pulled out the seven-star knife.
