Just as Lin Zhou was about to wrap the steamed flatbread, a picky customer interrupted him.
"etc!"
"Boss, can I have three 'Family Feast' dishes? All three kinds of meat in them!"
"OK."
Lin Zhou nodded and scooped a piece of pork belly from the pot onto the cutting board.
A large piece of bright red, well-stewed pork belly was scooped out. The slightly translucent skin and fat swayed back and forth with Lin Zhou's rough movements, trembling slightly, like a shy little girl suddenly being pulled out and trembling under everyone's gaze.
The diners' blatant gazes fell on the braised meat, and they swallowed hard.
As the braised meat was scooped out, its irresistible aroma became even stronger, drawing people's attention wherever they looked.
Watching Lin Zhou ruthlessly pick up the cleaver and chop a piece of braised pork into minced meat in a few quick strokes, the fatty and lean pork belly instantly blended together.
The braising liquid fully coats the meat during the chopping process, making it look moist. Even before tasting it, you can tell it will be juicy and flavorful, not dry.
After chopping the braised meat, Lin Zhou used a cleaver to scrape a portion onto the flatbread, and then scooped out a piece of beef tripe from the stainless steel pot.
The entire movement was clean, efficient, and swift.
A large piece of tripe, honeycomb-shaped, steaming hot, was tossed onto the cutting board, where it bounced a couple of times.
Lin Zhou quickly cut it into strips and placed it on the flatbread.
Next up is braised beef.
The sliced braised beef is so thin that you can clearly see the tendons scattered irregularly on the cut surface. It's translucent and looks incredibly appetizing.
At this point, the pancake was piled with three layers of meat.
A layer of minced pork belly, a layer of thinly sliced beef tripe, and slices of beef—the aromas mingled together, making it a truly delightful sight.
Then Lin Zhou took out a braised egg, cut it into four pieces, and placed it on the flatbread.
Next comes the step of adding vegetables.
Because the guests are picky eaters, we could only put a few kinds of vegetables left out of the many varieties available.
"I've added shredded potatoes, bean sprouts, crisp lotus root, cucumber, and cilantro for you."
The diners nodded eagerly, and then, seeing Lin Zhou roll it up, they didn't bother to pack it up; they just took it and started eating.
A big bite, all meat, vegetables are just accompaniments, but they also contribute to the richness of the flavor.
The aroma of the braised meat is the most intense, followed by the spiciness of the chili oil and the fragrance of the sauce.
One bite is enough to taste a variety of flavors, including sour, sweet, salty, fragrant, and spicy.
The sauce has a hint of sweetness, and the spiciness comes from the chili oil, making it both spicy and fragrant.
Braised meat has a pure braising flavor, both fragrant and fresh.
With three different flavors of meat, it's so delicious it makes you want to roll your eyes.
The pork belly is so tender and flavorful that it practically melts in your mouth without needing much chewing.
Then the tripe is spicy, chewy, and bouncy, with a soft and springy texture. It's chewy but not hard to chew, and the taste is amazing!
Compared to the oily texture of pork belly, beef has a slightly chewy and dry aroma. It's tender but not mushy, fragrant but not greasy, and has the chewiness of beef tendon, making it truly exquisite.
The addition of crisp vegetables makes it even more irresistible.
The crisp lotus root is the most prominent ingredient, served in a cold, spicy and sour salad. Each bite is incredibly crunchy, making its texture stand out among the other ingredients.
Shredded potatoes and bean sprouts are clearly different foods, but when paired together with flatbread and braised meat, they surprisingly harmonize perfectly, much like scrambled eggs with tomatoes—a truly delicious combination.
The diner finished the food in one bite, squinted his eyes in enjoyment, and then opened his mouth wide to take a big bite with a ferocious expression, as if he wouldn't stop until he swallowed all the rolled-up ingredients in one go.
"Boss Lin, this is so delicious! Waaah, please add more spice, it's not spicy enough."
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhou applied several more layers of chili oil to him.
Those who hadn't bought any yet watched him eat alone, and their eyes welled up with tears.
This looks so delicious!
Standing in the queue, Xiao Wang saw the message from Wen Nan and replied with a question mark.
The message came back instantly.
"Brother, can you bring me two pieces of beef tripe to try?"
"Forget it, there's a limit of three per person. It's just enough for me. You didn't come, now you regret it!"
Xiao Wang immediately refused.
He could eat just the right amount of food if there were three of them. If he gave two to Wen Nan, it was obvious what he would eat.
Wen Nan regretted it the moment she saw the message.
I should have told everyone in the group about Boss Lin's location a couple of days later. That way, fewer people would have bought it, and there definitely wouldn't have been a purchase limit.
But if he doesn't tell everyone the location, he won't have enough money to buy everything.
In short, it's a dilemma.
If he had to decide now, he might do something more sensible.
But at that moment, all he could think about was buying everything and eating his fill!
They simply couldn't calm down and think about how to maximize their profits.
He never expected his wish to come true so easily.
The shock of fulfilling his wish, and the excitement of meeting Boss Lin, left him completely unable to calm down.
However, thinking about the seventy or eighty braised meat rolls he still had in his refrigerator, he was in a good mood.
It's wonderful to enjoy a hot braised meat roll while hiding in the tea room.
......
There are more varieties of braised pork rolls today, and Lin Zhou has also prepared a larger quantity of flatbread.
He rolled them one by one, quite quickly, and soon a group of people gathered around his stall, munching on braised meat rolls.
This is very appealing to office workers who have just finished get off work and are looking for food in the commercial street.
"There are so many people at that stall over there! What are they selling? It smells so good!"
A neat and tidy woman with short hair pulled her colleague along, and they spotted Lin Zhou's stall from afar.
There's an office building across the street from this commercial street. After get off work, office workers who don't want to order takeout usually come to this street to buy food.
Because of the temple, there are many places to eat nearby.
Lin Zhou's stall was the most popular one at first glance.
"Aren't we going to eat at that rice noodle place anymore?"
The female colleague looked at the short-haired woman who seemed eager to try and asked in confusion.
She had just heard the short-haired woman say that there was a really delicious beef rice noodle shop nearby, with a rich, spicy, and flavorful broth that was especially fragrant.
So they've changed targets already?
"I also eat rice noodles, but I think it would taste better with a braised pork roll."
As the two approached, the short-haired woman saw the braised pork roll sign hanging on the tricycle and was very tempted.
The aroma of the braised meat can be smelled from this far away, and there are people queuing up in front of it. Almost everyone has a braised meat roll in hand to eat, so it must taste great.
The female colleague didn't care much about what she ate, and casually followed the short-haired woman to the back of the crowd to queue.
"Wow, so many people! In this blazing sun, do we really have to queue up to buy braised pork rolls?"
Within two minutes, the female colleague was starting to feel like retreating from the sun.
"Sister, smell this fragrance, don't you want to try it?"
The female colleague fell silent.
The closer she got, the stronger the aroma became, and she couldn't bring herself to refuse it.
