Chapter 554 Is the taste a bit unauthentic?
On the fifth day of the first lunar month, the sun was shining brightly, the sky was blue, the sun was warm, and the breeze was blowing. It felt like spring had arrived.
Huang Tao didn't stay at home, nor did he go to relatives' homes to pay New Year's greetings, but drove to the city alone.
He came here this time to attend the college reunion.
The location is at the Holiday International Hotel.
Many of Huang Tao's college classmates are locals from Wenling City. Even if they work outside, most of them go back to their hometowns for the Chinese New Year, so basically there is a classmate reunion every year.
Over the years after graduating from university, Huang Tao has also received invitations from his classmates every year, but he didn't participate every time, only occasionally a few times.
Just like last year, he didn't participate.
The reason was that some accidents happened in his family, which left him in a decadent state, and his will was very depressed. How could he even think about going to a class reunion?
Fortunately, time is the medicine that can heal all sorrows!
With the passage of time, the grief in his heart was slowly healed little by little, so he got out of the pain of losing his wife and faced life again.
The career has also ushered in a turning point, soaring!
So, this year, when Gu Zhihao and other classmates kindly invited him to participate, he agreed.
It's not that I want to show off or anything else. On the one hand, I want to meet my classmates who haven't seen for many years working outside. On the other hand, I don't want people to misunderstand that I am the boss. classmate.
"Welcome."
The welcoming ladies in red cheongsams stretched out their fair hands and made a gesture of invitation.
Huang Tao nodded and went to the elevator.
"Brother Tao, are you here?"
As soon as he stepped into the elevator, Huang Tao received a call from Gu Zhihao. He took off his mask and said, "Everyone is here, I'm just waiting for you!"
Huang Tao responded with a smile: "I'm already in the elevator, and I'll be there in a while."
The hotel's restaurant is on the third floor, and the elevator is there in a blink of an eye.
"Ding~"
The elevator door opened slowly, Huang Tao put away his phone and walked out.
It has to be said that the facilities and services of the three-star hotel are still very thoughtful and meticulous. The moment Huang Tao stepped out of the elevator, the young woman who was guarding the elevator entrance and dressed as a waiter asked with a smile: "Hello, sir. , What is the box number?"
Huang Tao said, "888."
"888 is here, please follow me."
The hotel attendant led Huang Tao to the private room. After walking a few steps, she couldn't help turning her head to look at Huang Tao, and asked, "May I ask if you are Mr. Huang Tao?"
Huang Tao nodded with a smile: "Yes."
"what!"
The waiter covered his mouth in surprise, his eyes were wide open, and his face was full of surprise: "Hello, I am a loyal fan of your store, and I like your food very much."
Huang Tao smiled: "Thank you."
Now he can be regarded as a well-known celebrity in Wenling City. He has been featured in gourmet magazines twice, and he has been on the trending searches every now and then. His dishes are also deeply loved by the general public of Wenling City. Many people come here admiringly. Eat, thus being planted grass, became a loyal fan of the store.
And the waiter in front of him is a loyal fan of his shop, so it's normal!
Under the guidance of the waiter, Huang Tao came to the front of box 888, and after the waiter opened the door for him, he walked in.
one look.
The two big tables in the big box are basically full.
There are about thirty people!
At the moment, the big guys are chatting, laughing and chatting lively!
When Huang Tao was in college, there were more than 50 students in his class. After many years of graduation, it is really rare for more than half of them to attend a class reunion.
"Huang Tao!"
A classmate near the door saw him first, and immediately called out in surprise, at the same time, he got up and shook hands with him to say hello.
"The chef is here!" "Huang Tao!" "Brother Tao!"
There was a sudden commotion in the private room, and the other students also stood up one after another, waving hello to Huang Tao.
Looking at the familiar faces, there were traces of time, and hearing the familiar names, Huang Tao couldn't help but feel ripples in his heart. Speaking of the time when he was studying, His relationship with his classmates is very good and harmonious.
Even when he was in the most difficult time, many classmates even came to visit him at home.
"Lin Qing!" "Li Hongrui!" "Liu Zihang!" "Ding Hai!"...
Huang Tao smiled and warmly greeted these old classmates one by one.
Although some students hadn't seen each other for many years, he was still able to accurately name each other, especially those who had visited him before, which made him feel very cordial and happy.
It feels like going back to my school days!
After exchanging pleasantries, Huang Tao sat down beside Gu Zhihao.
However, the ass was not hot yet, Lin Qing who was opposite said with a smile: "Huang Tao, you were the last one to arrive. According to the old rules, you will be punished with three drinks!"
As soon as this remark came out, the old students present unanimously agreed.
They all yelled, "Yes, three glasses of wine as fine."
Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Huang Tao cupped his fists helplessly and begged for mercy: "I came here by car, I can't drink, and I have to go back to my hometown at night! Please forgive me."
He has a very poor capacity for drinking, he downed three glasses!
If he punishes himself by drinking three glasses of wine, he can leave the class reunion early.
Besides, I will have to drive back later, so drunk driving is absolutely unacceptable.
Huang Tao poured a drink into his wine glass, raised his glass and said, "I'll toast you with a drink instead of wine."
"Eat and drink well, everyone. I invite everyone to sing in KTV tonight. How about making amends?"
Eating and singing are standard equipment for the class reunion, and the cost is naturally AA for the participating students.
After all, all the students here have graduated and worked for many years, and no one is short of this little money.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have come at all.
If someone else proposes to treat guests, it may be suspected of showing off their wealth, but Huang Tao, the former squad leader, will undoubtedly not cause such misunderstandings.
Besides, the treat was to make amends, and everyone naturally accepted it.
Clap your hands!
Gu Zhihao said with a smile: "Okay! I can't ask for a child!"
"You will pay for the KTV box tonight."
Huang Tao smiled and made an "OK" gesture to him.
Lin Qing could also say with a smile: "But to be honest, I would rather be able to eat the food cooked by Huang Tao than to sing in KTV! I heard that the food you cook is very delicious, but unfortunately I have been away from home and have no chance to be able to Eat it!"
As he spoke, he sighed regretfully.
The other students who didn't have the chance to taste it all had the same expression: "Yes, I heard that there are a lot of people, and it is very difficult to buy it in line!"
They have been greedy for this for a long time, but they have no time to eat because they are too busy with work.
Originally they planned to hold the classmate reunion in Huang Tao's store, but later they learned that Huang Tao's store was closed during the fifth day of the lunar new year, so they had to give up.
Now that I meet the Righteous Master, I naturally have to express my helpless feelings.
"That's natural. Every day, people line up from the store door to the street."
Gu Zhihao said solemnly, "If I didn't have a close relationship with Brother Tao, I wouldn't be able to eat his cooking at all."
The other students said enviously: "It's better for you, boy! You have to eat first if you are close to the water, and we will not be so lucky."
Adored!
Sour!
Huang Tao smiled at the corner of his mouth: "My store will open on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. If you are free, come over and I will reserve a spot for you."
When the students heard the words, they couldn't help showing their surprised little expressions of "I can eat this without queuing up".
only……
How many are happy and how many are sad!
The joy is those students who work locally.
What is worrying is that the students who are going back to work in other places on the eighth day of the eighth day all show expressions that are so painful that they can't breathe.
Saying.
Do you want to take leave and delay returning to work?
Just at this time, other dishes were brought to the table by the waiter one after another.
"Eat vegetables, eat vegetables..."
"This is Canadian lobster, the hotel's signature dish, everyone, try it..."
Everyone greeted each other, and then moved their chopsticks one after another.
Gu Zhihao, who had been spoiled by Huang Tao, frowned slightly after eating a few mouthfuls of other dishes. He missed Huang Tao's food more and more in his heart. When he finished a mouthful of lobster meat, his frown deepened. up.
He lowered his head and asked Huang Tao in a low voice: "Brother Tao, do you think the taste of this Canadian lobster is a bit unauthentic?"
Since owning the system, Huang Tao's five senses have long been different from ordinary people, and he naturally tasted that the lobster meat is not Canadian lobster.
He said with a smile: "Zhihao, be more confident and remove the word "somewhat"!"
