The old customers who lined up at the So Delicious booth but didn't manage to buy anything.
They thought, since they couldn't enjoy the food from the So Delicious booth tonight, they might as well head home and let it be!
They didn't plan to go to other booths to buy food!
What a pity!
But their stomachs wouldn't allow it!
They kept singing the "gurgling" song of hunger.
No choice!
They had to settle for second best.
They wandered around the other hotel and restaurant food booths like a horse browsing flowers.
Looking for food that might catch their eye.
Hoping to fill their five organs temple a bit.
And the chefs at the other hotel and restaurant food booths were almost moved to tears with joy when Huang Tao and the others folded their stalls and left.
This meant that their food booths were about to welcome their own springtime.
This implied that customers might be late, but they would never be absent.
So!
To attract those scattered customers from the So Delicious booth, they once again lowered their lofty stance, transforming into waiters, and began energetically hawking.
"Come and have a look, don't miss out as you pass by... freshly steamed buns with two flavors, sweet and savory, for you to choose from. The sweet filling is made from boiled string beans, strained through cheesecloth, and mixed with finely ground brown sugar into a filling, sweet and glutinous, very delicious. The savory filling is made of minced meat, dried tofu, and celery, tender and chewy, absorbing the rich meat juice, with a hint of playful elasticity in each meat particle, one bite is sure to win your heart..."
"Come and see the Drunken Clams! Fresh and tasty inside, the clam's essence blends with the rich aroma of wine, giving your taste buds a strong stimulation. The smell alone can make you tipsy even before you take a bite."
"Clear Soup with Garlic Chives, fresh and mellow soup, the freshness invades the soup, tantalizing your taste buds, lingering between lips and teeth, leaving you wanting more. The texture of the garlic chives is also very special, with a crunchy bite, slightly crispy amidst the chewiness, not many seafood soups can match the fragrance and silky texture of this, worth tasting, miss it and regret for a year..."
"..."
In short!
Each call was more vigorous than the last.
Many diners were tempted.
They rushed over and started ordering.
"I'll have a serving of Drunken Clams, thank you!"
"Hmm! Just give me a Clear Soup with Garlic Chives!"
"I'll take two servings each of Grilled Abalone and Grilled Squid, make it quick~"
"Two savory buns for me, and one sweet bun first!"
"A serving each of Roast Whole Lamb and Roast Suckling Pig!"
"..."
Suddenly, the food booths of various hotels and restaurants became bustling.
Business gradually rejuvenated!
The diners, having received their orders, took a bite...
Hmm!
What to say!
Not bad, but not as delicious as described by those chefs.
Overall, the taste was just average!
Absolutely no match compared to the food made by Boss Huang.
Those who were spoiled by Huang Tao's cuisines, even when eating five-star hotel food, showed a calm expression of "Hmm, just okay, edible."
While eating food from other hotels and restaurants, their minds were filled with the flavors of Fish Ball Soup, Roast Duck, Brined Dishes from the So Delicious booth.
Helpless!
Simply unforgettable!
Thus, everything they ate felt tasteless.
"Growl~ Growl~"
After a few bites, everything tasted bland, and hearing the "song of hunger" from their belly, their faces turned black.
This stomach, damn it, was too disappointing!
The food from other booths wasn't that tasty, never mind, no more browsing!
They planned to go back home, cook something simple to tide over their hunger, and then save their appetite for Boss Huang's food the next morning!
Boohoo~
They must eat the food made by Boss Huang tomorrow!
They have to!
...
Meanwhile, Huang Tao returned to the So Delicious store on a small truck.
Once off the car.
Xu Hao and the others, who had been waiting at the store, came over and joined Ding Suqin, Ji, and others to carry all the equipment and utensils inside.
After tidying and working hard.
Everyone sat down together for dinner.
Originally, Huang Tao thought his parents would go to work tomorrow, and after dinner, he would ask Lin Jingsong to drive his parents back to their rural home.
But Huang Yide and his wife thought, since their son would be busy with the food festival tomorrow, he definitely wouldn't have time to pick up and drop off Xuanxuan for school!
To allow their son to focus on the food festival.
They decided to ask for a day off from their leader tomorrow, to stay and take care of Xuanxuan, picking her up and dropping her off for school.
They would go home tomorrow night.
Since his parents had decided, he didn't oppose them and respected their decision.
Xuanxuan was quite happy to hear that her grandparents would be staying to drop her off and pick her up from school.
Although she wished her dad could do it, she knew that he would be busy with the food festival tomorrow!
No time to spare for pick up and drop off.
Even if he could, it would be very rushed~
That would tire Dad out!
To let dad focus on the food festival, she agreed to have her grandparents do it and reassured her dad not to worry about her.
This little adult's demeanor made Huang Tao unable to resist offering Daddy's Kiss as a reward.
Prompting Xuanxuan to let out a "giggle" with a silvery laughter.
Around 7 p.m.
Everyone was full and satisfied.
The generously treated driver gratefully stood up to bid farewell, "Boss Huang, thank you for your hospitality. I'll head back first, but I'll be here the same time tomorrow morning."
"Alright, thank you for your hard work today, drive safely on your way back."
After sending off the driver.
Ding Suqin and the others began cleaning up the dishes.
Huang Tao went to the kitchen to prepare new brine packets, putting them in five brine pots. The flavor needs to be fully simmered in advance, making the brine rich and thick, so it can be quickly absorbed when marinating.
Having sorted those out, he teamed up with Xu Hao and Lin Zifeng to prepare the fish balls needed for tomorrow.
He planned to introduce a new fish ball snack at the festival tomorrow, as a benefit for those food enthusiasts who loved his culinary skills.
Hmm!
What kind of fish ball snack?
Let him think!
At the moment, the kitchen was bustling!
Everyone was rushing to prepare the fish ball ingredients for tomorrow...
...
Huang Yide and his wife were sitting at the dining table in the store, chatting while watching Xuanxuan play with Mimi.
"Old Huang, will today's 'on-site teaching' at the food festival be broadcast on the local news tonight?" Song Cailian was too focused on watching her son make West Lake Vinegar Fish in the afternoon that she forgot to take a video, missing the chance to record this important moment, feeling quite regretful inside.
Huang Yide thought for a bit. "I asked the staff in the afternoon. They said it would be on tonight, on Wenling News Comprehensive Channel."
"That's great!"
Song Cailian happily patted her thigh.
Her son was going to be on TV, how could she not be happy!
"What time does the news start?"
"Eight o'clock!"
"Alright, let's watch it later."
"Okay!"
