The diners who just walked in and hadn't figured out the situation yet exclaimed when they saw chefs in the queue: "Hey, I say, you guys from Taste Memory, why are you all lining up at someone else's booth? Don't you want to do business? Uh... I'd like an order of teppanyaki squid, could you please come over and make it for me?"

Of course, business must be done.

But right now...

Seeing it was almost their turn, the chefs and waitstaff from Taste Memory were naturally unwilling to give up.

So!

They played "hot potato," each wanting the others to return and attend to the customer.

But after one round, the "potato" was still not "passed" to anyone.

No one was willing to take on this task.

Even with the threat of a bonus deduction, they were undeterred in their decision to continue queuing to buy.

The group could only apologize and say, "Young man, please wait a bit, we'll come over once we've bought something..."

Being snubbed after trying to contribute to their sales, the young man went: "..."

Why?

What kind of magic does this Delicious Restaurant's braised food have?

It makes these chefs ignore customers just to stubbornly line up and buy?

It's not just this young man thinking this.

Other diners who had just come in also shared similar thoughts.

However...

Smelling the braised aroma in the air and seeing the customers not far away gnawing on braised chicken feet and wings with blissful smiles, at that moment, they got it.

It must be because it's exceptionally delicious...

The drooling, envious diners quickly ran to the back of the line, eager to buy some to taste.

The head chef from Su Mansion, waiting behind the head chef from Taste Memory, was expecting them to leave so he could move forward in the queue.

Unexpectedly, these guys were relentless!

They were unmoved!

The head chef from Su Mansion, whose optimistic idea went unfulfilled, couldn't help but joke, "Hey, Old Qian, there's a customer ordering your teppanyaki squid; why aren't you hurrying back to make it? Don't you know that the customer is king?"

"You have the nerve to talk about me! Aren't you, the head chef of Su Mansion, also here lining up? Let me buy from this stall first, then I'll go back and cook for the customer." The head chef from Taste Memory, Old Qi, turned to look at the head chef of Su Mansion, his eyes showing a "I've already seen through your mind" look, and retorted.

These chefs were all familiar with each other.

They were neglecting their own stalls purely because they wanted to try the food at Huang Tao's booth.

As chefs, what gourmet food haven't they seen?

Frankly, they've become almost uninterested in various foods.

These chefs rarely go to other hotels to taste delicacies.

But today, the braised food from Delicious Restaurant smelled incredibly nice.

They had never smelled anything so fragrant, so their curiosity was piqued, and they couldn't resist wanting to taste it.

Huang Tao and others never expected that the chefs and waitstaff from nearby booths would come over to line up and support his business!

And Taste Memory next door had even visited his booth for the second time.

All who come are guests!

Huang Tao and his team greeted them with smiles, deftly packing their orders.

The chefs and waitstaff from each place were now experiencing the fragrant aroma of the braised food and fresh fish soup and the crisp smell of roast duck up close...

All the smells combined surprisingly well, and they were incredibly fragrant~

Unable to help themselves, they swallowed audibly.

After receiving their ordered dishes, they immediately returned to their own stalls.

Upon returning...

They couldn't wait to taste the braised food first.

Just one bite...

The chefs found that this braised food was not just ordinary braised food~

It was rich and mellow, with a lingering aftertaste and an enticing aroma!

Truly worthy of being called an enchanting bite of braised food!

It's no exaggeration to say.

This braised food's taste surpassed all the gourmet offerings of the festival!

After tasting everything.

All the chefs were silent!

Damn it, they thought, how can they not accept that this small restaurant participated in the food festival and did such good business when the owner's cooking skills are right there in front of them, what are you even not accepting~

This small restaurant owner's culinary skills are so superior, leaving them these ordinary chefs in the dust! Even the head chefs are outdone by a mile!

These chefs from hotels and restaurants, after tasting the food from Delicious Restaurant, all came to terms with this reality.

The food from Delicious Restaurant was so delicious; no wonder they were doing such great business!

Oh!

They couldn't compete...

They couldn't compete...

But fortunately, the food they sold at their booths wasn't the same type as Delicious Restaurant's.

They could still survive in the cracks!

If not, this food festival might have really had nothing to do with them!

But now Xinglong Restaurant was a bit worried~

Initially, the braised food at their booth was selling okay.

But then!

Plenty were smelling, few were buying.

Business was sparse!

The chefs were preparing braised food, but it seemed like only a few customers came by every few minutes.

Even the waitstaff grew bored due to idleness.

Initially puzzled, when they saw diners walking by their booth munching from takeout boxes, it dawned on them, could another booth be selling braised food at the festival?

Only then did they belatedly realize why those who smelled their booth's aroma were saying something was wrong with the scent all along.

They then slowly realized that the aromatic braised food scent in the air was not from their own booth.

They were considering sending someone around to other booths to check things out when...

The head chef from Carp Hotel, a friendly acquaintance, walked in with a grin: "Old Chu, I brought you something to try."

"I'm not in the mood to eat, nor to talk to you," Old Chu, the head chef from Xinglong Restaurant, said seriously.

"You'll definitely be interested in what I brought!"

Saying this, the head chef from Carp Hotel took out a takeout box from behind and opened the lid.

Instantly...

An overwhelming braised aroma directly hit Old Chu's throat.

The braised food was naturally exquisite, with a genuine and unadulterated flavor, rich and long-lasting, distinct from the "extreme taste" made with current additives.

Old Chu, after making braised food for over ten years, knew from the smell that the craftsmanship in this dish wasn't something ordinary people could achieve.

His eyes brightened: "This braised food?"

"I knew you'd be interested. I bought it from a booth called Delicious Restaurant. Give it a try!" The head chef from Carp Hotel gestured with his eyes for him to taste it.

Old Chu tried a piece of duck neck.

The braised flavor was rich, the meat was tender and tasty, the flavor permeated to the bones, which were also tender...

After finishing, Old Chu felt complicated.

This braised food from Delicious Restaurant completely outshone the braised food from Xinglong Restaurant!

Of course, he didn't harbor any ill intentions at this point.

After all, he recognized the vast gap between himself and the competitor, which was just too great...

Since he couldn't compete with the braised food, he decided to change to another type of cuisine.

To avoid the egg striking the stone, hurting himself!
