Searching for Treasures in the Clouds

Yu Ru had heard of this restaurant and had even watched a video about it on her mobile phone. It was said that the biggest feature of this restaurant was its freshness.

It seemed to be true. There was an open kitchen not far from the table where they were sitting. After they ordered the dishes, an Asian chef and another Western chef in the kitchen started cooking in front of them. It was so close that the food could be served to them the next second after it was finished.

The highest standard of dining package here is to cook the dishes in front of the guests. Most of the dishes will be prepared in the customers' dining rooms, and a small number of large dishes will be prepared in the kitchen of the headquarters.

"Yu Ru, this is my first time in this restaurant, so I don't know if the food is good or not. But my friend told me that this restaurant is quite interesting, so you can come and have a look. If you don't find the food to your liking today, I will ask you to go somewhere else next time." Zuo Buqiu lowered his voice and said to Yu Ru.

Yu Ru smiled and signed to her, "It's okay. I'm happy even if it's not delicious. This is my first time to eat in this kind of place. It's a new experience for me."

"No, that won't work. You helped me, but I didn't even get to eat a meal that satisfied you. This is too unfair."

Yu Ru nodded.

Yu Ru didn’t feel what was interesting about this restaurant, at least not before the main course was served. She felt it when the main course was served. She didn’t know if it was interesting, but she felt like laughing. She seldom laughed unless it was really funny.

There was more than one person serving the dishes. There were three people, two white men and one white woman. Everyone was dressed in formal attire and was very formal. They did not serve three dishes at a time, but three people served one dish.

The first person brought a large plate with only a small piece of fish cut into squares on it. The two people behind him came to add ingredients. The second person came over and added something like sauce, and the third person added something like powder. After they finished adding, the first person came back to continue adding. The three people walked around the table twice before they finished adding.

When they were adding ingredients, a Chinese man in formal attire introduced the dishes in Chinese. He kept saying some strange and long names, which made people dizzy. Yu Ru only heard something like "Imported from Australia" and "Imported from New Zealand", nothing else.

Seeing them serving dishes in a circle with serious faces, Yu Ru really found it a little funny. This scene seemed to hit Zuo Buqiu's funny spot, she suppressed the corners of her mouth that were curled up, nodded in response to the man who introduced the dishes, and turned to look at Yu Ru.

Yu Ru smiled slightly, blinked, covered her mouth with one hand and lowered her eyes.

"It seems... indeed a bit interesting and funny. What do you think?" Zuo Buqiu approached and said.

Yu Ru smiled and nodded, "This is a very strange way of serving food, I have never heard of it before."

The first dish was like this, but I didn't expect that the second dish would be served to multiple people, and it was an advanced version, for four people. Yu Ru couldn't hold back when she thought about the ten dishes she and Zuo Buqiu ordered. If those people ordered ten dishes, and each one was an advanced version and went in circles...

She didn't dare to imagine what that scene would be like.

Fortunately, everything was not as she thought. After the second dish, they served the dishes normally.

While waiting for the food, Yunjixing sent a message: Aru, are you back? I want to invite you to my birthday party.

Yu Rufa replied: No, I don’t know your friend, and I’m having dinner with friends outside and can’t get back in time.

On the other side, Yun Jixing felt a little disappointed after reading the message sent by Yu Ru. He glanced at Jiang Zaizhou and Xi Yizai in the kitchen, and sent another message to Yu Ru: A Ru, I have introduced you to my friends in advance, and they all want to meet you.

Yu Ru: Sorry, I don't have the right identity to appear in front of them now, let's talk about this later. Also, I wish you a happy birthday and have fun with your friends.

Yunjixing: Ah Ru, when will you be back? Do you want me to pick you up? Where are you eating now? Is the location convenient?

Yu Ru: No problem, thank you. I can go back by myself. Just celebrate your birthday today.

After finishing his chat with Yu Ru, Yun Jixing became a little depressed. Jun Wuxia, who was sitting in front of him, saw him like this and asked, "Brother Xing, will that girl come over?"

Yun Jixing shook his head, "She is busy and can't come."

"Oh...I see. Did she say when she would be back?"

"I should be back tonight, but I don't know the exact time."

"Then maybe you will meet tomorrow, it will be very quick." Jun Wuxia comforted.

Yu Ru and Zuo Buqiu had already had their dinner. Except for the first and second dishes, which took a long time to be served, the dishes that were not served were quickly served to them one after another. Each dish was served on a large plate and a small dish. You could almost finish a dish in one bite. The dishes seemed simple, but they were not simple at all. You couldn't wait to eat them at a glance, and you would fall in love with them after taking a bite.

Yu Ru never thought of using the word "disgusting" to describe the food she ate. The first thing she ate was a piece of fish with caviar on it. It was fishy and half-cooked. She planned to go home and take some anthelmintic.

She hated the feeling of being neither cooked nor raw. She never ate food that was not fully cooked because she felt that it would cause worms in her stomach. She had eaten enough worms when she was a child, and now that she was older, she didn't need to torture herself like this. No matter how high-end the restaurant was, or what kind of steak she ate, she didn't care whether it was high-end or not, or tasteful or not, she would always have it fully cooked.

The second bite was a potato pancake stuffed with caviar and sprinkled with a light mustard sauce, which also tasted strange.

The third bite was bread sprinkled with whipped cream. I thought that the combination of butter and bread, two of the most common things, would be normal, but I didn't expect that the chef's ability to make food taste bad was beyond my expectation. The bread was hard to begin with, and I didn't know what else was sprinkled on it besides butter. It tasted like a rotten stone.

Today was Yu Ru's first time eating caviar, and she felt it would also be the last time. She always felt that the caviar poured on food for garnish was a string of black insect eggs. This was why she would not try caviar even though she had the money to eat it. One of the reasons was that the appearance of this thing alone left her with a bad impression.

Of the ten dishes they ordered, only a small steak was acceptable, but the rest were hard to describe. Even so, they still had to smile and praise the chef for his cooking skills. After all, their eyes that were expecting praise were so enthusiastic.

The dishes in this restaurant are very small, even if you eat ten dishes, it is not enough to fill your stomach. After Yu Ru and Zuo Buqiu finished eating there, they hurriedly paid the bill and left.

……………………I am the dividing line………………

The origin of knives and forks is not in the West. Here, we have been using knives and forks for five thousand years.

Introducing a culture——Qijia Culture

The Qijia Culture was named after the Qijiaping site in Guanghe County, Gansu Province, where it was first discovered in 1924. It dates back about 4100 to 3600 years. During the Qijia Culture period, agriculture, animal husbandry, pottery making and copper smelting were common, and the level of productivity increased significantly, exacerbating the gap between the rich and the poor and the emergence of classes. The clan system had collapsed, and the era of civilization was about to come. A large number of clay red pottery, sand-tempered red pottery, jade and bone tools were unearthed at the Qijia Culture site on the Weihe Terrace in Wushan. (Introduction to the museum display board)

In this cultural site, our archaeologists discovered a complete set of three bone knives, forks and spoons.

Our ancestors eliminated knives and forks because they thought they were troublesome to use and instead used chopsticks. In fact, knives and forks are still considered barbaric things.

We may not be the origin of world culture, but we are definitely the country that has the greatest influence on the world.

Don't mention that everything in the world was still in its primitive state more than 4,000 to 5,000 years ago. It doesn't matter where it originated from or where it is here. It's all made for eating. But Aries people claim that the knife and fork originated from them, and they also incite the public to say that those who use knives and forks are noble, and others are lowly, which is disgusting.

There are also the corn cob and the devil next door. Corn cob said they invented metal chopsticks, and the devil said they invented thin-tipped chopsticks. Come on, stop flattering yourself. What invention is not an invention? Changing the material or changing the shape slightly is called an invention? At least inventing chopsticks that can take objects from the air is called an invention, right?

For thousands of years, we, the descendants of the dragon, have used not only metal chopsticks and thin-tipped chopsticks, but also gold, silver, copper, iron, wood, and ancient stone chopsticks, square, flat, large, small, long, and wide. When we were civilized, there were still a bunch of bacteria next door.

I@&%&%……

Really, not everyone is humble. It is not that difficult to admit that you are mediocre and others are excellent. Learning to praise is a virtue. I want to say that it is not so far-fetched for the Japanese who are raised on rat shit to invent good things. Humility is also great. Unfortunately, you are destined to be a pile of mud.

They are just rotten shit, but they have to come and disgust us all the time, steal our things, and think about invading us all the time. I really can't think of more vicious words to describe them.
