"Oh my goodness, is it really this outrageous?"

Di Renjie had just turned back and saw a line of at least twenty people in front of the food truck that was empty just moments ago.

"I was only gone for a little while, how did so many people suddenly appear?"

Di Renjie was somewhat shocked.

It's not even 5 o'clock yet, a time when people typically aren't that hungry, so seeing a line suddenly form like this was quite unbelievable to him.

The person who recommended Di Renjie to come here was actually Zhou Ruoqing, a genuine food enthusiast.

On short video platforms, all her follows are various food exploration bloggers.

Yesterday, after she finished eating elbow rice, she recommended it to Di Renjie.

Mainly because she believed that among the bloggers she followed, Di Renjie was the most professional, and ought to be able to explain why the elbow rice is so tasty.

Otherwise, if others asked her why it was so delicious, and she could only say "I don't know, it's just delicious," it would greatly harm her image and position as a foodie.

She knew that Di Renjie was in Harbin from watching the livestreams, but didn't expect that he would really come and explore the store.

At the moment, she was leisurely eating fruit in the bathhouse while watching Di Renjie's livestream.

Upon hearing what Di Renjie said, she immediately replied, "Old Di, just say you're from the South, otherwise, by the time you get to the front, only bones will be left."

Di Renjie saw the message and laughed, saying, "That won't do, although I am indeed from the South, we still have to queue up."

After saying this, he wandered to the end of the line to queue.

As he queued, he began to explain, "For these snack stalls, the speed at which they serve food is actually very important. Even if the food isn't great, quick service still means good business. Slow service can be a killer. Wang's Braised Pork's serving speed is quite fast, I'm moving up the line swiftly."

The serving speed at Wang Fan's side was indeed fast, mainly because most people coming this afternoon were locals who couldn't buy any in the morning.

Northeasterners are so straightforward, they won't tolerate incomplete meat, they don't even need Wang Fan to cut it, they just order a whole one right away, some even take two or three.

This made things easier for Wang Fan; he just needs to scoop out the meat and place it onto the rice, drizzle some braised sauce, and it's done.

"Hello, how much would you like?"

"One elbow, please, and add a braised egg."

Di Renjie carefully examined Wang Fan and the inside of the food truck, and couldn't help but nod in approval in his heart.

As a former head chef of a five-star hotel, he had strict requirements for both kitchen hygiene and the personal hygiene of chefs.

Whether it was the owner or the kitchen environment in front of him, both were impeccable in cleanliness.

When Wang Fan scooped the elbow meat out of the pot, a flash of admiration even appeared in Di Renjie's eyes.

The color of this elbow was beautiful!

Western cuisine emphasizes the presentation of dishes greatly, and Chinese cuisine stresses the combination of "color, aroma, and taste", with color being the first in line.

The appearance of a dish can directly influence others' expectations.

This elbow in front of him had a rich red, shiny color that made it irresistibly tempting to take a bite.

Especially the constantly bouncing "duangduangduang" skin, which heightened this impulse even more.

After buying the meat and paying, Di Renjie found a less crowded spot to stand. He handed the livestream phone to his assistant to hold, while he held a meal to begin his classic opening line: "Harbin Wang's Braised Pork, braised pork elbow on rice, a total of 61 yuan."

This opening was a fan favorite because once he started, it meant the main show was beginning.

"Hurry up, hurry up, my instant noodles are ready, waiting to eat along with Old Di."

"Indeed, as the saying goes, great minds think alike, I also have instant noodles."

"Hahaha, it has to be me, I just scooped a freshly cooked elbow."

Di Renjie began to jovially narrate his recent buying experience: "First things first, this boss is very clean, the serving environment is very clean too. Everyone knows how high my demands are in this area, honestly, I can't find a fault here with this boss."

"Whoa? Even Old Di can't find a fault? Then he definitely deserves the title of clean and hygienic."

"To the person above, ever since someone drank that cup of Ganges River water, clean and hygienic has not exactly been a compliment."

"Is that so?"

"Yes indeed, I suspect there are enough elements in that cup of Ganges River water to complete the periodic table."

"Even the most obscure flowers can't beat that flair."

"What the heck?"

"Ah, my eyes, what am I seeing?"

"Wow, it feels like a big piece of elbow is dancing in front of me?"

"Have I been single for too long? Even an elbow looks enchanting and glamorous?"

Di Renjie's hand holding the bowl was shaking non-stop, making the elbow in the bowl bounce "duangduangduang" persistently.

He looked at the phone with a mischievous smile and said, "How about it? Isn't it stunning? To be honest, after exploring so many places, this is the first time an elbow amazed me, the caramelization process alone is worthy of being called gourmet level, and the control over the heat – one point too hard affects the mouthfeel, one point too soft makes it too mushy, this elasticity calls for another accolade of mastery."

Then, he took out his chopsticks and pressed down on the elbow, easily pulling the skin and meat apart to show in front of the camera.

This process of picking the elbow meat made many viewers break down.

"Sss...are you really picking the elbow? You're actually pulling at my mouth, my tears are about to fall from my mouth!"

"In the past, when I went to eat elbow, the pictures always looked great, but the real thing was often disappointing, typical disclaimer, but what Old Di is eating today looks exactly like the pictures!"

"Master, please stop! It's New Year, and I was already tired of meat, but now you're trying to make me fat to inherit my credit line?"

"Compared to what Old Di is eating, my elbow instantly lost its appeal..."

Di Renjie picked up a big piece of elbow skin and brought it close to the camera: "Come on, the usual, fans first."

"Quick, move it away!"

"You better find a way to shove it through the phone into my mouth!"

"When I make money, I'll be sure to buy a phone that can be eaten first."

"Don't come any closer!"

Di Renjie chuckled and contentedly stuffed the elbow skin into his mouth.

Stunning, and stunning again.

As he chewed carefully, he slowly commented, "Soft, glutinous, savory and fragrant. To describe the level of softness and stickiness, I can only use four words – perfection. Originally, just seeing that elasticity impressed me, but I underestimated it."

"The elbow skin is fatty but not greasy, the aroma from the spices is generous but not overwhelming. Most remarkably, throughout the meal, there isn't a hint of the usual gamy taste from pigskin, the elbow skin is impeccably clean."

"The meat fibers are fine, tender, and juicy. The braising liquid has seeped into every fiber. Really, the more you chew, the more flavorful it gets. I personally think this elbow surpasses all the elbows I've had at large hotels. My rating is..."

Di Renjie opened his closed eyes and solemnly declared, "Five stars."
