Daddy's Gourmet Shop-Chapter 279 - 270: Renown Spreads Far and Wide!

Around eleven fifteen or so.

Suddenly, a post about Delicious Restaurant popped up on the Changjiang University campus forum.

And it instantly became a hot post.

"On Today’s New Discovery at Delicious Restaurant... Braised Pig Trotter Rice: Tender and Delicate, an Unrivaled Delicacy!"

This bunch of students are true fans of Delicious Restaurant.

One could say that Delicious Restaurant has become their top choice in their hearts.

Whenever there’s any stir or change in the restaurant,

a related hot post will appear on the campus forum here.

And countless students, just seeing the words "Delicious Restaurant" in the post, would click in without hesitation and then carefully read through the content.

lz: This noon, I didn’t have class, so I lined up at Delicious Restaurant and unexpectedly found they launched a new Braised Pig Trotter Rice with white rice. The Braised Pig Trotter Rice is limited, first come, first served.

1l: No more words, just show the picture, can’t be responsible for your drooling: image.jpg

The screen was filled with a close-up of a bowl of Braised Pig Trotter Rice, pieces of evenly sized caramel-colored braised pig trotters, shimmering and laid over the rice, irresistible,

a halved braised egg placed on one side, looking very flavorful.

The emerald green vegetables beside it were tinged with minced meat, exuding deliciousness even through the oil sheen.

2l: Even though I’ve eaten braised pig trotters and eggs countless times, looking at this Braised Pig Trotter Rice, oh man, I’m still craving, drooling!

3: Here I am, still in class, really wanting to eat it (feeling pitiful).

4l: Ahhh, I got the Braised Pig Trotter Rice, it tastes absolutely divine! How can the braised pig trotters be so rich yet non-greasy, the braised egg so flavorful, the vegetable so vibrant and delicious! Ugh! Whenever faced with Delicious Restaurant, my dieting efforts are ruined...

5l: Ahhh, both the person above and the original poster are playing dirty, running so fast to get it! Initially, seeing the name Braised Pig Trotter Rice, I thought it’s just braised pig trotter with rice! No big deal, but now seeing this unedited photo, okay, I’m drooling, what should I do? Here I am, still in class, and can’t just go there now!

6l: I hate it!!! This afternoon, I’ll definitely crawl if I have to, to get this Braised Pig Trotter Rice!!! Hope there’s still some left in the evening!

7l: Poor child in my twenties, got held up, still in class! Can’t take it! Can’t take it! Can only look at the pictures to satisfy my cravings, don’t ask why, just know that even if I sprint after class, there’s probably none left...

68l: !!! Boss Huang silently launched a new product again, just looking at the name Braised Pig Trotter Rice makes me drool!

69l: image.jpg, I’ve also eaten the freshly made Braised Pig Trotter Rice, it’s so fragrant!!!

70l: image.jpg, I’ve also eaten it, friendly reminder only sixty servings of Honey Sauce Chicken Rice available at noon. First come, first served, when I got there, only a dozen were left.

71l: Please save some for me ahhhhhh!!!

103l: Wuwuwu, I’m such a fool, after lining up hard, I still missed getting the Steamed Fish Head with Diced Hot Red Peppers Rice by just one serving (crying).

104l: I couldn’t get it either... couldn’t get it... West Lake’s water, my tears, who knows!!!

...

Time rewinds.

Lin Zhibo and Zhou Hong represented the office to pack food from Delicious Restaurant this noon.

Don’t ask why it was them at noon today.

It’s because in the WeChat chat window, the dice roll showed they had the lowest numbers.

Upon entering, they heard the news that Delicious Restaurant launched white rice and Braised Pig Trotter Rice.

They were a bit excited!

After all, the suggestion they made wasn’t brushed off verbally by Huang Tao, but he really took it to heart and acted on it.

There’s new addition of white rice!

Lin Zhibo said with relief, "Boss Huang is really efficient! Just mentioned it in the morning, and he arranged it by noon, with an extra Braised Pig Trotter Rice, and it looks really good!"

"That’s because Boss Huang takes customers’ words seriously, such a boss is really rare!"

Zhou Hong laughed, then remembered something and continued, "Wait a moment, I’ll send a message to the group and ask~"

He picked up his phone and sent a message to their small group.

Zhou Hong: Quick! At Delicious Restaurant, there’s new Braised Pig Trotter Rice available at noon. Reply with 1 if you want it!

Colleague 1: 1111.

Colleague 2: 11111.

Hong Rui: If it’s Boss Huang’s Braised Pig Trotter Rice, I’m assured, even without much thought, it would be delicious, replying 1.

Colleague 3: Wow! Old Zhou, there’s rice available today! Thanks brother, get me Braised Pig Trotter Rice too! Replying 1!

Colleague 4: Replying 1!

Zhou Hong: Wait up! We’ll be right back!

"Zhibo, five colleagues chose the Braised Pig Trotter Rice, adding ours makes it 7 servings in total."

Zhou Hong shared the confirmed number with Lin Zhibo.

The two acted quickly, fast ordering, scanning to pay, then waited to collect the meals.

Hearing their number called, they took the packed meals from Ding Suqin’s hands and without delay, hurriedly headed back.

"Come and get your lunch!"

Lin Zhibo shouted as soon as he entered the office.

He and Zhou Hong placed all the bags they were holding on the desk of the colleague closest to the door and began distributing them.

"Brothers, thanks for your hard work~"

Seeing that the food had arrived, Hong Rui and the others didn’t delay. They each took their portion and returned to their desks to eat.

"Mmm, delicious! The braised pig trotters and eggs still have the original recipe, the original flavor! The vegetables are blanched just right, very refreshing, and the white rice is fragrant, soft, and distinct in grains. As you chew, it feels soft and sticky, with a hint of sweet aftertaste when swallowed," said Hong Rui after taking a bite.

The colleague at the desk in front was eating voraciously, not even turning his head but chimed in, "This rice indeed smells great, much better than the rice sold at restaurants outside."

"Yes, eating Boss Huang’s rice, as the fragrant soft sweet rice enters your mouth, the taste of home dances on your tongue."

A colleague, while eating rice, reminisced about his childhood in the countryside: "It reminds me of playing in the fields as a child, the aroma of rice wafting from the smoking kitchens, the texture soft and chewy, unlike some restaurant rice that tastes like chewing wax."

As a child, he eagerly anticipated the new rice in October, freshly hulled, still warm, with a dense rice aroma filling the air when brought close.

Cooking a pot of it was incredibly fragrant and tasty.

After growing up and leaving home, he seldom ate properly.

Yet this bowl of braised pig trotter rice not only provided simple satisfaction but also gave him, as a hardworking individual, a warm feeling of support.

His once full stomach, filled with packed braised pig trotter rice, settled contentedly.

The words of his parents echoed in his ears: No matter how busy you are, eat well!

...

At the back kitchen of Delicious Restaurant.

Huang Tao, busy with his work, suddenly paused due to an unexpected system voice in his mind.

[Ding!]

[A new task has been released, please check it carefully.]

Huang Tao multitasked and opened the system task panel to take a look.

Main Task: Fame Spreads Far and Wide!

[Fame Spreads Far and Wide]: As a future Kitchen God, even those who haven’t tasted your cooking should hear tales of you! Ensure that at least one percent of the population in five cities know about Delicious Restaurant.

Note: The host needs to ensure this awareness includes the restaurant’s name, at least five dishes, and the chef’s last name.

Huang Tao: "..."

After glancing at the task details, he naively thought the system was sending him rewards!

But upon seeing the note.

He realized the task was quite challenging!

With the publicity from the ’Food and Beauty’ magazine.

Letting one percent of the population in five cities know about Delicious Restaurant was relatively easy.

However, the specific demands....

Were quite stringent indeed!

After all, many people can’t easily remember so many details at once.

It’s quite good if they can remember one distinguishing feature!

But then he thought, if someone only knows there’s a restaurant with delicious Dongpo Pork but doesn’t know the restaurant’s name or the chef’s name.

Such fame seems to be indeed not very useful!

The system’s requirements essentially aimed to pinpoint the target audience.

Basically, those who can clearly know these details, even if they’re hundreds or thousands of kilometers away, have a significant chance of dining at the restaurant when they visit Wenling City in the future.

Just like the day before yesterday, when a hungry delivery guy from another city specifically took a high-speed train to buy it for a big client.

In fact, this is quite beneficial for the future development of So Delicious!

Thinking so truthfully, he opened the task progress and took a glance at its status.

[Fame Spreads Far and Wide]:

Jiang City: 9854/10000

Lin City: 8988/10000

Lu City: 8755/10000

Jia City: 8564/10000

Shao City: 8465/10000

...

Huang Tao stared at the "Fame Spreads Far and Wide" progress in each city, rendered speechless.

He could only say that the revolution has yet to succeed, and he still needs to work hard.
