Due to her parents' unexpected passing, Gu Xinyan resolutely quit her job in the big city to take care of her blind grandmother and her little brother. She returned to her hometown and inherite...
Chapter 347 Delicious Hot Pot
So, the group followed Lord Yu to the second floor.
Although he tried to remain calm, his pace quickened involuntarily.
His eyes kept glancing at the hot pot that Qing Li and the others were bringing out of the kitchen on the first floor. He was filled with anticipation and really wanted to try this thing called hot pot.
Upon reaching the second floor, I was captivated by everything before me.
Although they had heard that there were booths from other dimensions on the second floor, they only listened to them and were completely focused on the amazing food on the first floor.
Now that I've seen the second-floor booth in person, I can't take my eyes off it. This makes me even more determined to invite Boss Gu and his group to their city.
With the addition of Boss Gu and his team, wouldn't there be a constant influx of fresh talent?
At this moment, Lord Yu, who was leading the way, had a stern face, but after stealing glances at the expressions of the people behind him, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
No matter how much you invite them, Boss Gu and the others will not leave her City of Rebirth. However, just thinking about the ugly expressions on their faces later makes me feel quite good.
They were led to a large round table that had been prepared in advance. Because there were many people coming, they were worried that there wouldn't be enough seats, so a large round table was prepared.
At this time, there were actually some ghost cultivators eating on the second floor. They didn't leave because they wanted to see how this thing called hot pot was eaten.
Secondly, they wanted to meet these important figures, since they rarely get to see them.
In this way, not only could Boss Gu see all these important figures in his shop, but he could also enjoy the aroma of hot pot and eat several more bowls of instant noodles.
Qingli and her group acted quickly. After the Ghost King and the city lords and family heads were all seated, they placed two pots of hot pot broth on each table.
For a table of a dozen or so people, one pot is definitely not enough; two pots are just right.
Along with the broth, plates of food were brought to the table, steaming hot and emitting a delicious aroma that made everyone present swallow hard.
However, none of them knew how to eat this so-called hot pot, so they hesitated to pick up their chopsticks, their eyes all fixed on Gu Xinyan and the others.
Even the City Lord Yu was the same; this was her first time eating hot pot, and if she had known how to eat it, she would have already started eating.
"How is this hot pot eaten?"
The Ghost King couldn't help but ask first; the aroma was truly whetting his appetite.
He hadn't felt this way in a long time and longed to have a hearty and satisfying meal.
Upon hearing this, Gu Xinyan smiled and explained, "Actually, eating hot pot is quite simple."
These ingredients are all raw. Whatever you want to eat, just put it in the pot, cook it, and then take it out to eat.
Furthermore, for these two soup bases, the red broth is for spicy hot pot, which has a rich flavor but is also quite spicy. If you don't like spicy food, you can cook vegetables in the mushroom broth.
The mushroom soup is relatively light, but still very delicious. You can choose according to your own taste. Also, we have special seasonings available.
If you feel the flavor isn't strong enough, you can dip it in this sauce for double the taste!
Okay everyone, give it a try! Just cook whatever you want to eat!
As she spoke, Gu Xinyan took the lead, picked up her chopsticks, took two slices of beef, put them into the red soup pot, and after scalding them for several dozen seconds, she took them out.
One slice of beef was placed in Xiaobai's bowl, while the other was placed in the dipping sauce in front of him.
After coating the beef slices with the sauce, he then stuffed the whole slice into his mouth.
After taking a bite, they nodded in satisfaction. It had been a while since they had hot pot, and this meal was truly satisfying.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Yunting and the others picked up their favorite foods, fed a little to Xiaobai, and then began to eat.
Seeing this, the others also picked up their chopsticks and started cooking the vegetables, just like Gu Xinyan and the others had done.
Since it was everyone's first time eating it, they were all a little unaccustomed to it. However, after tasting it, a hint of surprise flashed in everyone's eyes.
The spicy soup was incredibly satisfying, and paired with this ice-cold soda, it was absolutely delightful.
As everyone ate, they stopped being so reserved and completely let loose, no longer caring about the Ghost King on the table, and joined in the battle of food.
Meanwhile, the Ghost King was so engrossed in his meal that he kept picking up food with his chopsticks and scalding it into the red broth.
Compared to mushroom soup, he prefers this spicy one. Although it's hot, it's very enjoyable and he's somewhat addicted to it, unable to stop eating it.
The other city lords and clan leaders also enjoyed their meal immensely. Some preferred the spicy broth hot pot, while others loved the mushroom broth hot pot. They ate with gusto, occasionally uttering sounds of praise.
"This hot pot is absolutely delicious! After eating this, I won't be able to stomach any food in the city anymore!"
"That's right, I really didn't expect that I would be able to taste such delicious food in the Ghost Realm. It's so delicious."
"This hot pot is so fragrant and spicy! Even though my mouth feels numb after eating it, it's so addictive!"
"Delicious, so delicious! Even when I was alive, I had never tasted such delicious food. I never thought that I would get to eat it after I'm dead!"
"You can't argue with that! I absolutely love the hot pot that Boss Gu and his team make!"
Everyone chattered excitedly, eating with great satisfaction, while Lord Yu, standing to the side, ate with a smug look on his face.
Luckily, she acted early, otherwise she definitely wouldn't be able to enjoy the food so peacefully right now. She would be worried that Boss Gu would be snatched away by these people.
However, since this is called hot pot, she saw how Boss Gu and his team made it. She never expected that such a small bag of hot pot base would have such a powerful effect.
She could clearly see the envious looks on the faces of the ghost cultivators around her, and she couldn't help but have some other thoughts. If she could open a hot pot restaurant in the city district, the business would definitely be booming.
If we run out of ingredients in the future, we can try using ingredients from the Ghost Realm; who knows, they might taste pretty good too!
In this way, more ghost cultivators will come to her city, and her city of rebirth will surely become famous.
Qingli and her group were also seated at a separate table, enjoying their hot pot meal. They had been craving it since they were helping out in the kitchen.
They had originally planned to buy something to eat at the store later, but they didn't expect that Boss Gu would actually arrange a separate table for them. They were so lucky.
