Daddy's Gourmet Shop-Chapter 382 - 372: Like They’ve Been Starving for Eight Generations

Chapter 382: Chapter 372: Like They’ve Been Starving for Eight Generations

It’s past eleven o’clock.

Huang Tao opened the restaurant for business.

The customers lined up at the door immediately rushed in.

They looked as if they hadn’t eaten in eight lifetimes.

"I finally have time to come and enjoy Boss Huang’s food. I’ve been craving it to death. Today, I want to eat until I walk in and stagger out!"

"Damn it, my unscrupulous boss always wants me to work overtime. Even on the weekends, he wants me to go back to work. I look forward to weekends when I can come to Boss Huang’s and have a meal. How could I go back to work overtime? I outright refused. I’m going to eat everything in the restaurant to comfort my little wounded soul."

"Sigh... As a programmer, I already worry about my hair loss. It’s pitifully little, and if I keep working overtime day and night, I’ll go bald. By the way, does baldness count as a work injury?"

"Ah... I can finally eat Boss Huang’s food. It’s the highlight after a week of hard work! I need half a roast duck, half a roast chicken, a portion of crispy spring rolls, Dongpo Pork, braised prawns, nourishing fish soup, and a serving of braised pork rice. No one can stop me today. I won’t stop until I’m full to the brim!"

"I used to think the happiest thing was waking up on a weekend still glued to my bed. But now, I think the happiest thing is having a delicious meal at Boss Huang’s over the weekend!"

Huang Tao, who was waiting for customers to place their orders so he could start cooking, heard their conversation and smiled, saying, "You all! You should exercise restraint, don’t eat until you’re too full. It’s not good for your stomach, not easy to digest!"

These customers, who lived far away and couldn’t usually come during work hours to queue for food, were almost moved to tears by Huang Tao’s words.

"Boss Huang, the unscrupulous boss only cares about whether he can extract the last drop of labor value from us. Colleagues only care if we can do more work. Only you, Boss Huang, genuinely care about our health..."

"Exactly, exactly, as a programmer, I already worry about my hair loss. It’s pitifully little, and if I keep working overtime day and night, I’ll go bald. By the way, does baldness count as a work injury?"

"Boss Huang, you’re a great boss in Huaxia! How about I quit my job and come work for you? I can do all kinds of dirty and tiring work. If you don’t mind, I can even warm your bed!"

"I can also do that job, as long as you provide food, I can do anything, no bottom line!"

Huang Tao: "..."

Of course, Huang Tao didn’t take these jokes seriously. He just smiled politely, "I think better not, I’m afraid the little hair you have will fall into my dishes and get customer complaints."

"Pfft..."

Huang Yide and his wife, Xuanxuan, and the staff couldn’t hold back and burst out laughing.

Xuanxuan instinctively put her little hand over her mouth in a ladylike manner.

The neighbors queuing behind them also almost burst out laughing.

The few customers were also amused by Huang Tao’s words, chuckled, and then went to the self-service order machine to place their orders.

The neighbors behind them approached the counter to place orders with Ding Suqin.

Mr. Cheng asked with a smile, "Qin, let me have a serving of braised pork rice, a bowl of Fish Ball Soup, Dongpo Pork, and half a roast chicken. This roast chicken is also sliced on that Chun Wood chopping board, right?"

This question stumped Ding Suqin!

After realizing, she politely responded, "Yes, Mr. Cheng."

The other neighbors, hearing this, also ordered roast duck or roast chicken.

They wanted to join the fun and taste again the roast duck or chicken sliced on a chopping board worth six hundred thousand, wondering if it tasted any different.

They hadn’t noticed this before, but now that they knew, they wanted to try it again.

All at once, the sound of ordering filled the air.

The restaurant suddenly became lively.

Huang Tao and the staff also resumed their busy work.

Huang Yide looked through the floor-to-ceiling window into the restaurant and couldn’t help but mutter, "Why do I feel like the line of people coming at noon is even longer than yesterday?"

Maybe it was just his illusion.

He had a hunch that today’s queue outside was indeed longer.

"You’re not wrong; there are indeed a lot more people today."

Song Cailian glanced at the queue outside the store.

She thought it might be due to the effect of last night’s trending topic...

The business in the restaurant was getting better and better, and the couple naturally felt genuinely happy for their son’s success, but they were also concerned about his health.

Song Cailian thought she’d make some longan egg soup for her son later to nourish his body.

With this in mind, she started peeling longans.

Next to her, Xuanxuan, upon hearing her grandmother mention peeling longans for her father’s health, hurriedly picked up a longan to help peel it.

She, too, wanted to peel longans to help her dad stay healthy~

This gesture of concern for her father would surely touch Huang Tao if he saw it. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Very soon.

It was the turn of Jiang Qihang’s fans and those celebrities to enter the restaurant to place orders.

As soon as they entered, Jiang Qihang’s fans went straight to the counter to place their orders.

Meanwhile, Zhao Meilu and the other celebrities simultaneously took off their masks, sunglasses, and hats.

Now, someone should recognize them, right?

But the result was...

The dining customers inside were fully engrossed in enjoying their food, not even lifting their heads to glance at them.

The two servers inside were busy carrying plates, shuttling between tables, serving dishes!

They had no time to pay attention to them.

As for the shop’s Boss Huang, he was busy cooking dishes in the kitchen!

The little flames and thick smoke blocked his view, so naturally, he couldn’t see them.

To get Huang Tao to notice them and recognize them.

They specifically walked over to the kitchen area.

They looked at Huang Tao through the glass divider.

Feeling their gazes, Huang Tao looked up at them and politely nodded at them.

This action made Zhao Meilu and the others mistakenly think that Huang Tao recognized them.

The result was...

Huang Tao raised his hand and pointed, "You don’t place orders here in the kitchen. You can do so at the counter or using the self-service order machine."

Uh...

This was just awkward...

Zhao Meilu’s pretty face couldn’t help but flush with embarrassment, and she let out a long sigh, questioning herself.

The other celebrities next to her felt the same way!

It turned out that Huang Tao hadn’t recognized them; he just thought they were new customers unfamiliar with the shop’s setup!

The little bit of superiority they felt as celebrities was completely shattered in this small restaurant.

Fortunately, they hadn’t hired security to protect them before coming, or the situation would have been really embarrassing!

Feeling helpless, they went to the self-service order machine to place their orders.

To maintain their figures, they didn’t dare to order too much.

They only ordered braised pork rice or Yellow Croaker Noodles.

Before tasting, they were drawn to the restaurant by its popularity.

But after tasting...

They were instantly won over by Huang Tao’s culinary skills!

Oh my gosh~

This is so delicious!

Oh my gosh~

This is what real deliciousness is all about...

The streamer’s words were indeed not exaggerated at all.

If you haven’t eaten at this restaurant, your life is truly incomplete!
