"Hello, what would you like to order?"
After Lin Zhou finished speaking, Shangguan Xi counted the number of people in the crowd and ordered thirty egg burgers.
Upon hearing this number, Lin Zhou was stunned. Six people eating thirty?
Although surprised, Lin Zhou didn't say anything.
There was a customer who ate more than twenty servings of grilled cold noodles by himself.
If there weren't enough egg burgers available, he would pack up the existing ones and hand them to them so they could eat first while he prepared the next ones.
Shangguan Xi and his group were international students who came to the country for a holiday. They figured that since they were already in the country and it was so close to China, they might as well grab a bite to eat before heading back.
Then I took a boat here early in the morning.
The group took the egg burgers and started eating.
When it comes to studying abroad, food is definitely a major problem for them.
Although there are Chinese restaurants that can satisfy your cravings, the taste is still somewhat different from what you get in China.
Also, some Chinese dishes are available.
But snacks like egg burgers are something I really don't get to eat.
Street vendors are rare abroad.
Some of the snacks they've eaten since childhood are things that money can't buy.
They were all quite excited as they held their egg burgers.
They then eagerly devoured the egg burger, their expressions as if they hadn't eaten in eight hundred years.
The foreign student among them stared in astonishment.
Their reaction to the egg burger was as if they hadn't eaten in eight hundred years, which was quite eye-catching.
Shangguan Xi took a bite of the egg burger and immediately showed a surprised expression.
Holy crap!
Among the six, three were Chinese students. After taking a bite, they stared at each other with wide eyes, clearly surprised by the taste.
This taste is something that all Chinese people understand.
The remaining three foreign students, however, were bewildered by the situation, holding their egg burgers and not even having a chance to eat them.
"Xi, is there something wrong with the food?"
"It's delicious! You guys should try it, it's so good!"
After realizing what was happening, Shangguan Xi began to chew heartily, urging his three foreign classmates to try some.
They've never eaten anything this delicious before, not even as children.
Have roadside stalls in China evolved to this extent?
I can't imagine how much he missed during those years of studying abroad.
Then, at his urging, the foreign student who had taken a bite of the egg burger also exclaimed in surprise, his expression exaggerated and outrageous.
The egg burgers they were holding had actually been sitting for a while; the crust wasn't as crispy as when they were fresh out of the burger.
However, because of the sauce, the pancake lost its crispness for a while, but it became more flavorful.
The fragrant and spicy sauce paired with the crispy outside and tender inside egg burger is a perfect combination of egg and fresh meat.
This classic combination, when combined with a touch of pickled mustard greens, offers an innovative texture and a breakthrough in flavor, making it incredibly delicious.
The three foreign students nodded excitedly, their mouths full of egg burgers, barely having time to speak.
The soft and crispy flatbread, the tender and smoky eggs, and the fresh and tender meat—and most importantly, when you bite into it, the juices flow down the opening.
You can imagine how delicious the gravy was; I couldn't bear to waste it. I took another bite before I even finished the first bite to catch the gravy.
Then, with your mouth full, you chew and savor the delicious flavors bursting in your mouth. At that moment, the feeling of having your appetite satisfied is truly captivating.
The group ate while making sounds of praise, mainly because they spoke different languages.
Lin Zhou's lips twitched when he saw this.
While egg burgers are delicious, isn't this a bit too much?
Then he heard several Chinese-looking diners in the crowd speak up.
"I've been abroad for so long, when have I ever eaten anything this delicious!"
"This trip to E'guo was definitely worthwhile."
They had come to visit Eguo because they heard there were many beautiful women there. When they arrived, they learned that it was just a street away from Baihe in China, only a seven-minute boat ride away, and visa-free, which was very convenient.
After an all-night party, we come early for breakfast, emphasizing speed.
And you know what? The lively atmosphere in China made him immediately feel the joy of returning home.
They just can't stop eating.
The hot egg burger instantly soothed his stomach after drinking all night, and even the fatigue in his eyes and brows from staying up all night eased a lot.
"Dude, your cooking is amazing! Your egg burger is so delicious. Where are you from?"
After praising the egg burgers and finishing their own, the group stared longingly at the sizzling egg burgers frying in the pan.
I was filled with curiosity about how such a delicious egg burger was made.
"What is this? Lettuce leaves? I didn't see any in the egg burger. And is this pickled mustard greens or dried radish? Corn kernels, so many ingredients!"
Watching Lin Zhou make egg burgers, these people kept eating.
Seeing the scallions on the top, I always have to ask if they're big green onions or small green onions.
Lin Zhou initially had time to reply to them.
Then when these people even asked him about the sauce, he just couldn't be bothered to answer.
So he replied with four words: "Trade secret".
...
There were quite a few foreigners coming and going at the morning market.
No matter where you are, when there is a queue or a crowd at a food stall, it will always attract some people's attention.
Especially when the stall also exudes an enticing fragrance.
That's the best signboard to attract customers.
Lin Zhou noticed that more and more people were gathering in front of the stall, including many foreigners.
Then, Lin Zhou couldn't understand what they were saying, which made him very upset.
He had no idea he would have so many foreign customers before setting up his stall.
If he had known this would happen, he would have definitely brought a translator with him.
At this moment, Shangguan Xi, who was still waiting for the egg burger at the stall, noticed Lin Zhou's situation and took the initiative to enthusiastically introduce the egg burger that Lin Zhou was selling in a foreign language.
The prices were clearly displayed on a small blackboard handwritten at the stall.
At this moment, Shangguan Xi was extremely fond of the egg burger. This egg burger had given his stomach, which had suffered so much abroad, a new lease on life.
At this moment, this egg burger is his god!
He described the egg burger with such passion and enthusiasm, his hands trembling with excitement, that he was truly recommending it.
Lin Zhou sold more than a dozen egg burgers in one go.
Having confirmed the demands of these foreigners, Shangguan Xi relayed them to Lin Zhou.
"Boss, four pork ones, three beef ones, and ten cheese and ham ones."
Hearing this ratio, Lin Zhou finally understood what those guys meant when they said foreigners would definitely like it when they first set up their stall that morning.
It is indeed very popular.
The cheese itself has a salty and savory flavor, which, combined with the corn kernels and the salty and umami flavor of the ham, is truly captivating.
