Outside the Delicious Restaurant.
"Wow, that aroma is incredible! Just slling it makes hungry."
"Damn! If it slls this good, it must taste amazing!"
"Hey everyone, look, there’s a new dish on the electronic board... Wow, it’s roast duck... Boss Huang has a new roast duck on the nu? What a surprise... But hold on, the price... 188 yuan..."
"Roast duck is delicious, but at that price, as a student, it brings tears to my eyes from not having money!"
"True, I can’t afford it!"
"If Boss Huang were cooking at a five-star hotel, it would be way more expensive. The price of this roast duck is similar to other restaurants, but the taste must be better. Don’t ask why, just sll that aroma yourself. Isn’t it worth the price?"
"Indeed, the aroma of the marinated at mixed with the savory roast flavors surprisingly isn’t overwhelming, it’s fragrant!"
The custors in line at the front, upon seeing the price of the roast duck on the electronic board, had mixed feelings!
Happy because the eagerly awaited new dish finally arrived!
Worried because their pockets are even emptier than their faces!
They gradually entered the restaurant.
The first to order were Wei and Ji, who had co together.
The reason it was just the two of them, without their close friend Yan Ming, is that Yan Ming was distracted by romance.
He went to watch a movie with Lin Yuhan!
Most likely, when they return, they’ll happily welco a sister-in-law.
But at the mont, the two of them were not concerned about that. They stood at the counter, curiously asking: "Is the roast duck delicious? It’s a bit pricey!"
"It’s delicious. Our restaurant’s roast duck is made from fresh ducks, resulting in a crispy texture while maintaining its original aroma. It’s fatty but not greasy, with tender at inside—crispy on the outside, tender on the inside!"
Ding Suqin took a lot of brainpower to organize these words, then smiled and said, "Also, each order of roast duck cos with thin pancakes, cucumber, sliced garlic, and sweet bean sauce as condints."
The two, who were already tempted by the aroma, were completely enchanted by the server’s description.
"Should we pool our money and share half a duck?"
"Sounds good to !"
The two discussed it and thought the plan was feasible.
So with smiles, they said to Ding Suqin: "Then we’ll have half a roast duck, along with two bowls of lean pork congee with century eggs and 10 pork-filled pan-fried buns. We’ll eat here."
"Alright, would you like the duck fra to be prepared?"
Hearing this, they exchanged a glance and nodded: "Yes, please!"
"It’ll be 164 yuan in total. You can pay with WeChat or Alipay," Ding Suqin said with a smile.
One of them paid the amount.
"WeChat received, 164 yuan!"
"Alright, please have a seat and we’ll serve your food shortly," Ding Suqin said with a smile before attending to the next custor.
The university students behind them didn’t order the roast duck.
They couldn’t help it, they couldn’t afford it!
Many of the elderly patrons also didn’t order the roast duck.
The 188 yuan price tag was a bit beyond their expectations.
anwhile, Wei and Ji sat down at the table closest to the kitchen, watching with great anticipation.
"Look how glossy the surface of that roast duck looks, with its dark, crisp skin—it already seems crispy..."
"For sure, Boss Huang wouldn’t randomly set the price. The taste of this roast duck must be pretty good! Just watching Boss Huang carve the duck is worth the price! Look at how focused he is, like a musician engrossed in playing a violin! Each slice is so uniform, not too thin or thick, with both skin and at. That knife skill, amazing..."
The two admired and chatted among themselves.
Until the food they ordered was brought over by Xu Hao.
"Hello, here’s your roast duck, along with your lean pork congee with century eggs and the pan-fried buns. Enjoy your al. The prepared duck fra will be served shortly."
As soon as the roast duck was placed on the table, it caught the attention of many guests.
Seeing that plate with roast duck at arranged like a beautiful blooming peony, custors in the restaurant couldn’t help but exclaim in amazent.
"Whoa! The presentation is stunning! Almost blinded my titanium dog eyes..."
"Wow... This is the 188 yuan roast duck... Up close, you can even see the clear texture of the skin!"
"I suddenly understand why a roast duck costs 188 yuan!"
"Boss Huang, bring half a roast duck..."
"Boss Huang, I’ll have half too..."
A few custors, after seeing the actual roast duck and thinking the price was worth it, imdiately ordered so roast duck.
anwhile, Wei and Ji, to avoid any disputes, had started sharing the food.
They divided the roast duck evenly, one piece for each...
Split in half.
And then they dug in!
Wei picked up a piece of succulent duck at, dipped it in sweet bean sauce, and took a bite.
Instantly, he tasted the rich flavor of the sauce and heard a crunchy sound when biting into it.
After a few chews,
the crispy duck skin and tender duck at, combined with the sauce in his mouth, created an exquisite taste, as if all the flavors were concentrated in the at.
It was so delicious that it almost brought tears to his eyes!
Wei involuntarily showed an expression of delight: "Delicious! Crispy on the outside, tender inside, definitely the best roast duck I’ve ever had!!"
Ji grabbed a thin pancake, spread so sweet bean sauce, added a slice of duck at, then so cucumber strips and scallion slices, rolled it up, and took a bite.
The crispy duck skin, fatty but not greasy, accompanied by the sweet and savory sweet bean sauce, juicy tender duck at, and the fresh taste of cucumber and scallions, filled his mouth with aroma instantly.
Every taste bud was overflowing with happiness.
"Ah... It’s unbelievably delicious... So good..."
Classmates dining in the restaurant next to them, watching Wei and Ji eat with such happiness and enthrallnt, were all tempted to tears by the alluring aroma!
One student couldn’t resist any longer and brought their al over to their table.
"Hey guys, can we discuss sothing with you?"
This remark made the two who were lost in the world of roast duck look up, puzzled at that classmate.
Wei asked curiously, "What’s up?"
"Um... could one of you share half your roast duck with ? I’ll pay!" The classmate said a bit embarrassed.
Ji: Σ(ﾟдﾟlll)
Wei: (;ﾟДﾟi|!)
When the two heard the classmate was after their roast duck, they quickly guarded the plates of roast duck in front of them.
Wei apologized with an expression, "Sorry! I’m not sharing this roast duck!"
"No way, I don’t even have enough for myself!" Ji firmly refused.
This made the classmate anxious!
"Oh co on, guys! Just for the fact we’re from the sa school, share a little bit with , just a little bit~"
A burly guy, actually acting coy for a few pieces of roast duck in front of other guys...
Is this the decline of morality or the distortion of human nature?
Wei and Ji both felt their goosebumps were about to fall off, instinctively shifting away.
What’s it like when a tough dude acts like a little girl in front of you?
Ji and Wei both expressed: Thanks for asking, it’s so damn nauseating!
But they had no choice but to yield.
The two reluctantly shared a piece of roast duck each with the classmate.
With the remaining roast duck, it wasn’t even enough for themselves.
It’s definitely impossible to share with anyone else.
The two quickly finished the roast duck on their plates while keeping an eye out for other classmates nearby.
Afraid that soone else might eye their food.
Coming to ask for so!
The classmate who got two pieces of roast duck savored them as though they were a treasure.
The duck skin was crispy and aromatic, and the fat under the skin was fragrant!
The duck skin was crisp without being greasy, the duck at was tender, not dry at all.
It’s really a feast for the senses!
"It’s so good, this is what real roast duck is! Compared to this, the roast duck outside is just pig food!"
A classmate beside him couldn’t help but ask, "Is it really that good?"
"The duck skin is crispy without being greasy, there’s no fat under the skin, it’s rich and plump, the duck at is tender and flavorful, leaving one with an endless aftertaste..."
Oh my!
It must be incredibly delicious!
Listening to his description, everyone around couldn’t help but swallow their saliva.
Many classmates, eager to satisfy their cravings, also started imitating Wei and the others, teaming up with familiar classmates to buy half a roast duck together.
In no ti.
The orders for roast duck were steadily increasing.
The number of people eating roast duck in the restaurant was gradually going up.
Praises were heard continuously.
"Delicious, so delicious~"
"This roast duck is even better than the one I had at a century-old famous store! This price of 98 yuan for half is totally worth it."
"Que Clan’s delicious, indeed!"
"How did they make this roast duck so crispy on the outside and tender on the inside? Amazing!"
Old Qin, who had just co in, heard this and gently waved a folding fan, smiling as he said, "To achieve that crispy outside and tender inside, you actually need to do these four key things: pour hot water thoroughly, apply color evenly, dry completely, and roast evenly."
"Pouring hot water thoroughly ans pouring boiling water over the duck until the skin tightens."
"Applying color evenly ans applying malt sugar on the tightened duck evenly all over."
"Drying completely ans placing the sugar-coated duck in a ventilated place to dry so that it becos crispy when roasted and does not shrink."
"Roasting evenly ans ensuring the fire is even during roasting, maintaining a constant temperature."
"This way, the roasted duck achieves the characteristics of being fragrant, crispy, soft, fresh, tender, and bright."
Old Qin, having educated everyone a bit, said to Ding Suqin, "Give half a roast duck! It’s been years since I’ve seen such a perfect roast duck!"
There were only a few tis he had such perfectly roasted duck.
Huang Tao quickly prepared the roast duck for Old Qin.
Soon.
The roast duck was ready!
Xu Hao brought the sliced roast duck to Old Qin’s table.
"Mr. Qin, enjoy your al."
Old Qin examined it closely, feeling quite impressed with Huang Tao!
This roast duck was cooked to perfection~
It completely adhered to the four principles of "hot thoroughly, color evenly, dry completely, roast evenly."
He picked up a piece of duck at, dipped it in so sweet bean sauce, and tasted it.
The taste was surprisingly good, the sweet sauce wasn’t greasy, the outer skin was crispy without being hard, and it retained the duck’s original juice and flavor, the at was firm, and also retained moisture, being very tender and delicious.
It was absolutely beyond imagination tasty!
"Not bad, not bad, it has achieved the characteristics of being fragrant, crispy, soft, fresh, tender, and bright, and even surpasses them..."
The elderly n and won saw that even Qin, the forr Five-star Head Chef, was impressed by Huang Tao’s roast duck.
Seeing him enjoy it so much, they couldn’t resist either.
"Boss Huang, give half a roast duck too!"
"I want one too..."
