The ingredients had already been prepared, so all that was needed now was to stir-fry them. One dish after another came out of the wok like an assembly line and were served to the tables outside.
One, two, three, ...
Ah Wei's saliva was secreted faster and more frequently amidst the fragrant food, and he was worried that his saliva might accidentally drip onto the dishes during filming.
After the dishes on the first day's menu were cooked, Xu An came out of the kitchen and began to plate them.
The plates we're using now are secondhand bowls and chopsticks that Xu An found at the flea market yesterday. They're just simple white bowls and plates, without any patterns or embellishments, and they look very plain and unpretentious.

Captivated by the delicious food, Awei patted his chest and assured Xu An before leaving that he would be able to finish retouching all the photos and give them to him that very night.
