Chapter 134 The First Meal on the Island
Zigaishan is quite luxurious inside. There are even seven or eight elevators in the lobby, and different elevators can go to different floors.
"You don't need to swipe your card to take Elevator No. 1; you can go directly to the cafeteria in the basement."
With a "ding" sound, the door opened and the Zigaishan Canteen came into view.
In fact, this place is not very big. There are only dozens of tables in it. The decoration is quite clean, bright and sleek, and the environment looks good.
It was almost dinner time, there were not many people in the cafeteria, and not even half of the food was finished.
Bai Mengmeng counted quickly and felt relieved. The cafeteria was not big, so there should be few people eating there, so she wouldn't be too tired.
Jiang Song took out a plate from the sterilizer.
"We're self-service here, everything is free. Just grab a plate and serve yourself whatever you want."
Bai Mengmeng thanked him and looked around at the plate. There weren't many dishes, but the combination was quite reasonable. There were side dishes and main dishes, and the colors were colorful.
There are also salad area, fruit area, beverage area and staple food area next to it. This kind of unit canteen is already very good.
"This cafeteria is great!" Huaguduo's eyes lit up and he ordered a lot of food.
Bai Mengmeng was also quite curious and didn't know whether the food here was delicious, so she basically ordered a little of every dish, and also took two roasted chicken legs, Kung Pao Chicken and Green Pepper Beef Fillet.
The main course was a big bowl of fried noodles, and at the end there was a glass of Coke.
Jiang Song's expression was a little strange: "Although it doesn't cost money, it's not good to waste it."
“We certainly won’t waste it.”
Bai Mengmeng scratched her head awkwardly. Since she had never eaten here before, she didn't eat too much.
In fact, her stomach had been rumbling with hunger for a long time. She could probably eat a whole cow at this moment, and even if there was twice as much food, she could finish it all.
Several people sat on the chairs. Bai Mengmeng took a bite of the chicken leg first. The chicken leg should be Orleans style, with a browned skin, and it was fat, tender and juicy.
After taking a bite, Bai Mengmeng laughed out loud in surprise: "This is the chicken drumstick made by KFC!"
After eating several of them in a row, Bai Mengmeng was satisfied and tried other ones. Whether it was the green pepper beef fillet or the Kung Pao chicken, the ingredients were quite fresh and tasted good. However, for some reason, the size and length of these ingredients were almost exactly the same, which looked a bit weird.
However, judging from the appearance, aroma and taste, it is already qualified. When she was in college, she interned at the old campus, and the food prepared in the cafeteria there was simply dark cuisine.
Things like fried mango with chili peppers and mooncake salad can really cause great psychological trauma to people.
Director Fang was so looking forward to her cooking in the cafeteria. Before she came, she wondered if dark dishes were often cooked here, causing the cultivators of Zigai Mountain to suffer all the time.
But now it seems that the food is all good in appearance, aroma and taste, and she feels that her coming here doesn't seem to have much effect.
When Bai Mengmeng had almost finished her meal, she turned around and saw that Jiang Song had only added a few chopsticks of fried noodles with a chicken drumstick on top. It seemed tasteless, like chewing wax.
"Teacher Jiang, aren't these meals delicious? Why do you seem to be in pain while eating them?"
Jiang Song's face was full of helplessness: "The food here was indeed good at first, but I kept eating it and I really couldn't finish it. It was just barely filling my stomach."
"Um?"
Jiang Song pointed at the menu, asking Bai Mengmeng to look at it. He recited it without hesitation: "Look at these dishes, roasted chicken legs with Kung Pao chicken, stir-fried beef fillet with green peppers and vegetables, scrambled eggs with cucumber, braised pork ribs, stir-fried lettuce, minced meat with vermicelli, minced meat stewed eggs, stewed radish, braised chicken nuggets, celery and pork shreds, boiled pork slices..."
Jiang Song read out the entire menu without missing a single one.
The more Bai Mengmeng listened, the more shocked she became. For a moment, she couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"How come you can cook every dish? You didn't even look at it, but you just memorized it by heart?"
"If you eat the same dishes every week, with no variation in breakfast, lunch, and dinner, it won't take long for you to memorize them."
"Really? Then this menu will never change!" Huaguduo's expression became a little panicked.
Jiang Song nodded in despair: "It's always the same. We only have one cooking chef here, and that's Master Xuan. All the meals he makes are made in the task cooking machine. This has not changed for many years."
Bai Mengmeng couldn't help but feel shocked.
I was shocked because the menu of this cafeteria has never changed over the years. I was also shocked because Master Xuan was probably a master in refining equipment and could even develop a cooking machine.
It seems a bit unfair for such a person to cook for everyone in the kitchen.
After everyone put down their chopsticks, Jiang Song wiped his mouth.
"Have you finished eating? Come with me, let's go see Master Xuan and discuss how your work will be arranged next."
…
Three people followed behind and came to the kitchen.
The kitchen here is completely different from that of ordinary restaurants. There is nothing on the stove and the fire is not even on.
There were a few unfamiliar machines by the wall, making a rumbling sound.
The kitchen was quite large, but there was only an old man in his sixties inside, who was busy all the time and didn't even notice the people coming to the door. He was just carrying a big bucket with difficulty.
"Let me help."
Bai Mengmeng noticed that the master's legs seemed to be shaking a little, so she quickly followed him.
With one hand, he easily lifted up the big bucket. The bucket was now full and looked to be filled with oranges.
The old man was not polite and asked Bai Mengmeng to put the bucket in front of a machine.
"Just put it in."
This is an automatic cutting machine. It is really advanced. When you throw the orange in, it can automatically clean itself. Then it is cut into eight complete pieces and falls onto the plate below.
This machine is awesome too!
It only took one minute to process such a big bucket of oranges.
Bai Mengmeng found that the fruit section was almost empty, so she planned to take the cut oranges over to replenish the stock.
"Wait a minute." After seeing this scene, the master quickly stopped Bai Mengmeng's actions: "These two pieces are not placed properly."
He straightened the two crooked oranges, and when all the oranges were neatly arranged, he nodded contentedly and asked Bai Mengmeng to go over and restock them.
"Okay."
Bai Mengmeng: ???
Damn, this is obsessive-compulsive disorder!
