Chapter 171 I'm Really Not a Fisherman
"Boss, give me a 2-jin (2-pound) fish in fragrant herb sauce, with duck blood, baby cabbage, and potato chips as side dishes..."
"I want two grilled fish, one grilled directly over charcoal, and one with tomato..."
“…”
Su Chen's food cart hadn't been packed up yet, but the fishermen at the front of the line couldn't wait to place their orders.
"Today we have a new flavor - grilled lychee fish, limited to 30 servings!"
While Su Chen was busy, he also shouted a few words.
Yesterday, the old man from the villa next door gave him several boxes of freshly picked glutinous rice lychees.
The housekeeper and the aunts each took away a bag, and the rest were still too much to eat, so they simply used them to make grilled fish.
"What? What the hell is grilled lychee fish? Who's such a good person put lychees on grilled fish?"
"Fruit and fish together, how strange is that? How can it be delicious?"
"Tsk! Look at how naive you all are. Once you taste it, you'll understand. It's damn sweet!"
The fishermen were complaining at once.
Some young people who had eaten lychee-flavored coffee elsewhere were delighted and praised the unique taste.
The other diners were worried.
Their intuition told them that it definitely didn't taste good, but they were also really curious about what it tasted like.
As the saying goes, you will regret it for a day if you eat it, and you will regret it for a lifetime if you don’t eat it.
In the end, curiosity overcame reason.
What's more, there are only 30 copies, and you would be missing out if you don't try it.
"Boss, please replace the herb sauce fish with grilled fish with lychee!"
"I want one too!"
Su Chen nodded and responded.
Hehe, how can douzhi and West Lake vinegar fish become so popular? It’s all thanks to people’s unwillingness to believe in it!
However, this grilled lychee fish is not really a dark dish.
It's just that the taste is a bit novel.
After a few days, the number of customer orders increased and more people were helping out.
An employee immediately weighed the fish according to the diners' needs.
The other three restaurant chefs are responsible for killing fish and preparing side dishes.
The chef stood in front of the chopping board, transformed into a cold-blooded gutting machine, cutting open the fish's belly with one sharp knife and taking out the internal organs.
He rinsed the fish under the faucet, sliced it, and handed it to Su Chen, as if it were a standardized production line.
Then, move on to the next fish.
Su Chen took the processed fish and evenly coated it with marinade.
The next step is to wait for the flavor to absorb.
Taking advantage of this gap, Su Chen quickly took Nuonuo, who kept clamoring to go fishing, to her fixed fishing spot.
He explained a few things and gave some instructions to the staff.
Seeing the little girl skillfully pick up the fishing rod and start fishing, he hurried to the restaurant.
Qiangzi and the other two were at the back of the team.
They had been riding all night and were tired and hungry.
When you get to the front of the line, you will inevitably feel extremely happy.
"Boss!!! We're here, are you surprised?"
A high-pitched and passionate voice suddenly sounded, and Su Chen was instantly frightened when he heard it.
"Um, hello!"
I have come to this fishery, and I can still meet old customers?
These people are everywhere.
Qiangzi and the others looked at Su Chen in disbelief, feeling secretly happy.
Hahahaha, they won’t tell the boss, they just met by chance.
Let the boss guess for himself!
"What kind of fish would you like?"
Qiangzi's taste buds have almost become accustomed to the boss's food.
Knowing that the boss is the one who makes the food, there is nothing that won’t taste good, and my mouth starts to water.
"Let's get one each of lychee, garlic, spicy, and tomato flavors. About two or three pounds will do..."
Seeing that the three people ordered four servings at once, the middle-aged fisherman sitting nearby eating fish looked at them with a look of confusion.
These big black eggs are really edible!
The skin tone is so uniform.
Although there is still a gap compared to me, but to have such skin at such a young age, I believe he must be a leader in fishing.
Anyway, I haven’t been able to catch any fish recently, so I’m adhering to the principle of exchanging experiences.
The fisherman immediately called Qiangzi and the others to sit at his table.
One minute later.
"What? So you guys are here to get a tan from cycling, not fishing? Then... how did you find yourself here?"
Qiangzi and the other two knew immediately that this person was a new fan and didn't know anything about the boss.
Although the boss has always been popular online, people who don’t pay attention to food or roadside stalls won’t see him or are not interested in him, so it’s normal not to know him.
"You can search online and find the missing person notice in South City."
The fisherman was very interested and immediately took out his mobile phone to search. Unexpectedly, there were quite a lot of similar videos pushed to him.
What kind of bounty announcement is this? Braised pig's trotters, pickled pepper pork intestines, stinky tofu, and so on.
"Really? Wow, I was wondering why the grilled fish the boss makes is so delicious. Turns out he's a celebrity!"
The fisherman was flipping through the video, watching it with great interest, as if it were gossip.
"So, you guys just kept chasing after the boss?"
"Yeah, there's nothing we can do! The boss is so casual about setting up the stall. The hours and location are not fixed. He changes every week, and he's not setting up the stall for several days a week. Sometimes he has one day off, sometimes he has two days off. If you want to eat there, you either have to rely on luck to come across him, or you have to look for people everywhere."
Upon hearing this, the fisherman immediately widened his eyes.
"What?"
The next second, he switched the phone interface and checked the calendar.
Today is Thursday. Excluding single-day weekends and double-day weekends, there are only three days left this week.
According to this calculation, wouldn't he soon not be able to eat such delicious grilled fish?
"No, I have to ask the boss."
The fisherman subconsciously didn't want to believe it.
Since he couldn't catch any fish, eating fish was his greatest joy recently. With this food, he was full of passion to check in at the fishing ground every day.
Now tell him that this stall is only open for a limited time. Who can resist this?
"Boss, are you still setting up a stall these days?"
"Until Sunday."
Su Chen responded and kept moving his hands, putting the base ingredients into the baking tray and adding six crystal clear lychee pulps.
The fisherman breathed a sigh of relief and asked again.
"What about next week?"
"I don't know about next week. I haven't made any plans yet."
Seeing that Su Chen still answered in this way, he showed an expression of "As expected" to Qiangzi and the other two.
Human beings share different joys and sorrows.
But at this moment, Qiangzi and the others could fully understand the fisherman's feelings.
"Wow, boss, you can't do that!"
The noise made by the fisherman immediately attracted the diners waiting in line.
Everyone stretched their necks immediately.
"What's going on?"
"The boss only sets up the stall for one week and won't be here next week!"
The fisherman cried at the top of his lungs, which made Su Chen very confused.
The other diners were also surprised when they heard this.
What?
Only selling for one week?
So where can they go to eat such delicious grilled fish after they catch the fish?
