Gourmet: From a Stall in Northern Europe Chapter 229 164: The Fiercer the Scramble for Breakfast, the
Magna excitedly ran out of the restaurant, driving his pickup truck quickly away.
"The uncle who just ran past looked so lecherous with that smile!"
"There's a strong fishy sll on him, he must be making a delivery, right?"
Near the beach by the side door of the restaurant, five vibrant and beautiful girls were dressed in eye-catching beach-style outfits, accompanied by several caran and crew mbers, appearing as if they had just finished filming.
"Kids, I just got word from the hotel that over a dozen tourists have suddenly changed their plans, canceling their breakfast and lunch reservations, so..."
"Hooray!!"
"Oppa saranghae~~"
The girls cheered in unison, while the caran and crew mbers struggled to suppress smiles at the corners of their mouths.
Everyone's out here working, and it was hard enough getting a trip abroad; who wouldn't want a good al?
"But, it's not that simple to get this al."
Before they could finish cheering, the PD beside the manager imdiately threw in a classic "but".
The smiles on the girls' faces froze.
"We're not... playing another ga, are we?"
"I don't want to go hungry!!"
"PD-nim, please please~~"
"Don't worry, everyone will get to eat. Our show isn't that brutal, hahaha, but the specific ga segnt, we'll have to discuss with the restaurant's head chefs to decide exactly which one to use."
The show's PD, a woman in her early thirties who seed easy-going, patiently explained to the girls before leading the way into the restaurant.
"Ding-a-ling~"
Hearing the crisp and pleasant sound of wind chis, the four won setting up the dinnerware simultaneously turned to look, and the nearest, Elsa, quickly stepped forward.
"Good morning everyone, the restaurant isn't open for business yet~"
"Here's the thing, we're a crew from Kimchi Country, and these girls are..."
Hearing that they were from a TV station, Elsa didn't dare make any decisions herself, and quickly turned around to shout: "Miss Dais, could you please have the two chefs co out. There are girl groups and a TV station crew from Kimchi Country wanting to film a show here!"
"Ah?? Okay!!"
Only Lin Chen ca out.
It wasn't that Jonathan didn't want to co; he was simply too busy. He was already starting to regret making lunch so complicated, which had him pressed for ti, requiring early preparations from morning onward.
Anyway, Lin Chen was more skilled and reliable than him, so he couldn't be bothered with anything more.
"Hello chef, we're from the MBTC TV station crew in Kimchi Country..."
"No need for introductions, I roughly understand the situation. Here to shoot a variety show and attend the Kite Festival opening ceremony, right? Is there sothing you need?"
"That's good then. We've just got the breakfast and lunch spots, but because we're filming, it's inconvenient to be in a crowded environnt. Could we ask if there's a private room or a quiet area?"
The woman breathed a sigh of relief. Now that they knew the situation, things were much simpler. And it seed like this chef was of Asian descent, probably the one they didn't encounter last night, whose skills were said to be better.
This was unexpected for her and the entire crew.
Glancing sideways at the girls, she noticed their eyes were wide, fixated on the head chef, nearly drooling.
An Asian chef, surely the food will suit their taste!
"There are private rooms, but they're upstairs and quite small, so you might not all fit with so many people."
Lin Chen pointed at the ceiling, saying, "More importantly, breakfast and lunch are buffet style; all dishes are served here, and I cook on-site."
"Since we're serving over a hundred diners at the sa ti, we only have just a few waitstaff, and they're busy busying themselves, sotis even helping us out in the kitchen, so they definitely won't have ti to serve you food."
"Based on yesterday's business, every ti I finish cooking a pot of food, it gets snatched up in two or three minutes, so there's no ti to restock, let alone cater to your special requests. Not to ntion, there'll surely be even more diners today."
Hearing this, the show's PD, crew, and writers exchanged troubled glances, huddled together for a quick discussion for about half a minute, then turned back with forced smiles.
"Chef, how about this: your al tis are from 7-9 and 11-1, correct? We'll have the girls participate in other ga segnts outside during breakfast, and then let them co in and grab the food themselves."
"As for lunch, if convenient, could we film separately after the guests disperse at one o'clock? We can work with the lunch nu then; will it interfere with your tasks?"
"Filming after the guests leave?"
This suggestion hadn't occurred to him. Lin Chen rubbed his chin, running through today's schedule in his mind, feeling like there wasn't much to do in the afternoon anyway. Watching how their variety show was fild didn't seem bad.
Besides, it could give the restaurant so publicity and popularity, a win-win situation.
"Alright, let's settle it like this, but I can't guarantee the sa ingredients will be left after lunch ends at noon. I'll see what I can do then, okay?"
"That's fine, that's great, thank you so much!"
The female PD was overjoyed, exhaling deeply. Just as she was about to turn away, she thought of sothing else.
"Oh right, chef, could you kindly provide us with a list of dishes you'll be preparing for lunch, so we can incorporate it into our ga segnts?"
"No problem."
The group didn't go far, just found a shaded spot on the beach area nearby to sit while the crew set up the venue.
The beach area wasn't open to the public at the mont, so if they were going to use it, it wasn't a big deal as long as things were returned to normal afterward.
"So it's them, huh?"
