It was a new day, and Mingyue still purchased ingredients and then drove the food truck to the bustling avenue to set up a stall.
Her dining car was still assigned the same location as yesterday.
After parking the car, Mingyue skillfully arranged the various ingredients and tools and posted a new menu next to the window of the dining car.
Just when Mingyue was busy, she suddenly noticed that there were several new food carts behind her own.
Soon, several people got off the car. Mingyue took a closer look and said, "Wow, isn't this an old acquaintance?"
Those people also walked towards Mingyue's dining car. After seeing the people in the car clearly, they were also surprised.
"Hey, Mingyue!"
"We meet again! It seems we are really destined to be together."
"Xiaoman and Mianbao are here too. Long time no see."
Several students in white chef uniforms were waving at her enthusiastically, their faces brimming with youthful vitality.
Mingyue got out of the car and asked, "Wushuang, Tiankui, Xiao Jin, Qu Ming, why are you here?"
"I didn't expect to see you here!" Tian Kui walked over quickly, his eyes full of excitement. "We're planning to try setting up a food truck stall and want to gain some experience in advance."
"The college is going to hold a Spring Flower Festival soon. Students will open shops and the campus will be open to receive many customers." Wushuang explained, "There will also be a ranking of shops at that time, so we all want to come here to work on the food trucks in advance to practice and gain some experience."
Xiao Jin continued, "So we simply formed groups of two, and each group set up a dining car to adapt in advance."
"That sounds great." Mingyue nodded.
"Now that you're setting up a stall here, can we try your cooking?" Tian Kui looked at Mingyue with sparkling eyes. "Can you make us something delicious?"
Wushuang nodded in agreement, "I also want to try Mingyue's cooking skills."
Then she pretended to be angry and said, "Xiao Jin and I told you to come and try the dishes we improved, but you didn't come!"
"Okay Wushuang, stop talking. Mingyue looks like a busy person." Xiao Jin patted Wushuang's shoulder and started to play the good guy.
Watching Wushuang and Xiao Jin acting in unison, Mingyue smiled helplessly, "Since you're here, you're a guest. If you want to eat something, just order some food. Take a look at the menu. What do you want to eat?"
The students cheered and gathered at the window of Mingyue's dining car to start thinking about what to order.
Tian Kui: "I want a rice ball! I want a family portrait, with all the toppings."
Wushuang: "Please give me beef kimchi rice balls."
Xiao Jin: "I want a vegetarian rice ball without rice and a salted egg yolk rice ball."
Qu Ming: "You guys don't want to order burritos? Then give me the muscle-building burrito."
"OK."
Mingyue quickly got into the mood, scooped out glutinous rice from the pot, and started making rice balls and rolls. Soon, the food ordered by the four people was ready.
The rice balls are kneaded into round and plump shapes, with so much filling that they are about to overflow.
The outermost layer of the rice-free ball is filled with various fillings.
The wraps are neatly rolled, with the thin wrapper filled with fillings such as spicy beef, crisp lettuce and tangy sauce.
"Here you go, alright."
After the four of them received it, they couldn't wait to open the outer packaging and take a bite.
"Rice balls are meant to be eaten by the whole family! They are so delicious! There are vegetables and meat in every bite!" Tian Kui couldn't help but exclaimed.
The rice balls have distinct textures, and every bite is unforgettable!
"Beef and kimchi go well together." Wushuang also agreed.
The seaweed on the outside is crispy, the black pepper beef and kimchi are a perfect combination, and the crispness of the lettuce adds a touch of freshness.
Xiao Jin also nodded. "The rice in the rice ball is steamed well. It's soft, sticky and crystal clear. It must be steamed."
He took another bite of the vegetarian rice-free ball and raised his eyebrows. "The idea of adding hummus is so smart. The hummus wraps the vegetables, and the whole thing becomes harmonious all of a sudden."
Qu Ming had already taken a few bites of the omelet. "Putting two omelets in the pancake prevents the crust from breaking and adds to the eggy flavor. The slightly melted cheese inside makes the ingredients blend better."
The difficulty of running a food truck does not lie in how delicious the snacks are, but also in whether it can maintain that level of quality throughout business hours. So when the four people saw Mingyue prepare food for four people so quickly and with flawless quality, they were all secretly amazed at her skilled skills.
"I'll give you four glasses of lemonade. We'll be busy when the business starts and you might not have time to drink water." Mingyue handed over the lemonade.
"Thanks. Will there be a lot of people here at noon?" Wushuang asked. She wanted to understand the situation so that she could make preparations.
Mingyue answered based on her experience yesterday, "There are a lot of office workers looking for food."
"Are there no tourists? I see a lot of tourists around here." Tian Kui asked curiously.
Mingyue explained, "Tourists usually go to the front half of the dining car lane. They like to go to the ones with higher overall scores. Newcomers like us can forget about it. Have you decided on your menu?"
Tian Kui chuckled and started to stir-fry, "It's ready. Wushuang and I are going to make fried rice."
Qu Ming pushed his glasses up and said, "Xiao Jin and I are going to make hamburgers."
Mingyue was a little surprised by Qu Ming and the others' choice, "Why did you suddenly decide to make hamburgers?"
Wushuang explained, "They're going to compete with some Westerners at the Spring Flower Festival."
She remembered, "Oh, come and play on the Spring Flower Festival. You know that the reason why Spring Flower City is called Spring Flower City is because of the Spring Flower Festival."
Mingyue was actually quite curious about what they were going to do that day, so she simply nodded and agreed, "Okay, you guys better try your best and don't lose, especially not to foreigners."
"Of course!" The four of them nodded in unison.
"Hello, are you open now?" A voice interrupted. It was a girl. Mingyue remembered that she had come to buy rice balls yesterday.
Wushuang and the others quickly made way, "We'll go back and prepare as well. It won't affect your business."
Mingyue nodded to Wushuang and the others, then turned to look at the customers. "We're open now. What can I do for you?"
Gan Yu looked at the menu and said, "Please give me a vegetarian rice ball and a cheese and meat rice ball."
She was going to discuss the follow-up matters of the cooperation with Ms. Veronica's company this afternoon, so she really needed the good luck that the Lucky Rice Ball brought her.
Gan Yu didn't think she was superstitious. After all, the rice ball was delicious and could bring her some positive psychological hints, so why not do it?
After she took the rice ball, she happily walked into the seaside park, deciding to enjoy the food here from now on. Gan Yu felt full of energy. She remembered her mother's advice on the phone, "Eat well and take care of yourself."
Well, what mom said is true. As long as you eat well, good things will happen.
