Chapter 258: Chapter 258: New Stall

Translator: 549690339 |

Zhou Tianhao didn’t wait long at Qin Lang’s stall.

After tasting the crab powder fried rice he had been longing for, he cleanly turned and left, heading for the next stall.

After all, Qin Lang is really busy at the moment. So, not disturbing him is also a kind of etiquette.

Although the order of the stalls in the second round was entirely different from the first, Zhou Tianhao had a clear memory of the delicious food he had tasted in the morning, so finding new delicacies he had not tasted was not difficult.

Starting at the best-located stall near the entrance platform, Zhou Tianhao went all the way inside, sometimes strolling around, sometimes tasting, and, when encountering stall owners who were not busy, would stop to exchange a few words with them.

Zhou Tianhao had heard about the culinary exchange on the deck during the noon rest and communication stage. Understanding this, he felt a bit regretful. If had chosen to set up a stall earlier, perhaps he could have had a more profound discussion about cooking with the other Spirit Chefs.

But the registration for setting up a stall for the Leaping Fish Banquet had passed, and his way of learning and observing other delicious food contributed significantly to Zhou Tianhao.

There is regret, but not much.

Walking along, Zhou Tianhao reached the very center of the deck of the Yueyu Cruise Ship.

The central area was supposed to be the busiest place, but due to the layout of the venue, it was farthest from the six entrances, and paradoxically became the least crowded and worst location.

Many food guests have filled their bellies on the way here, so the desire to purchase foods is not great by the time they arrive here.

Therefore, Zhou Tianhao could clearly see that there were far fewer food guests queuing in front of the stalls here compared to the outer stalls.

Under such circumstances, the long lines in front of a certain stall made Zhou Tianhao feel as if it stood out from the crowd.

There’s only one possibility for such a situation.

The rival’s culinary skills were far superior to other surrounding stalls.

Given this, Zhou Tianhao, who had not yet filled his stomach, was naturally interested.

If the opponent’s food can really do so, then why didn’t they get a good ranking in the morning and switch to a better stall?

This was weird, very weird.

He moved quickly, taking a few steps to the end of the line, waiting patiently.

The service speed of this stall was not slow. Although there were more than twenty people in front of him, everyone had bought their food and left after a dozen minutes.

Standing in front of the stall, Zhou Tianhao didn’t order right away, instead, he looked at the busy middle-aged man in front of the stall.

He furrowed his brows slightly.

The other party gave him a very familiar feeling.

“It’s you!”

Before Zhou Tianhao could recall where this familiarity came from, the middle-aged man looked up and saw Zhou Tianhao. An affable smile appeared on his face, “Young gentleman, we meet again.”

Upon hearing the other’s unique way of addressing him, Zhou Tianhao immediately recalled where he had seen the other before.

In the morning, he found the trace of the Star Hunter, went to track him but got dumped, and then accidentally bumped into the man in front of him and had a brief chat with him.

So it was him.

But he didn’t even set up a stall in the morning, did he?

“Hello,” Zhou Tianhao laughed, “I don’t think I saw your stall this morning?”

“Because I started setting up my stall in the afternoon, this is my first round.” The middle-aged man shrugged casually, “Young gentleman, you know, a good night’s sleep is important for middle-aged men like me.”

Well, did he sleep in on the first day of the Leaping Fish Banquet?

Zhou Tianhao’s gaze suddenly turned a bit strange when he looked at the middle-aged man.

No wonder his stall was in the worst location.

If he didn’t set up a stall, naturally he would be ranked last in terms of votes.

But these have nothing much to do with him.

He was just a food guest who came to enjoy the food.

“Give me an Autumn Blade Lemon.” Out of the three dishes listed on the stall, Zhou Tianhao chose the one that interested him the most.

“Alright.” The middle-aged man nodded slightly, with his hands rapidly going through the cooking procedure, even finding time to chat with Zhou Tianhao, “Young gentleman, it seems that you are also a Spirit Chef, didn’t you sign up for a stall?”

“I’m better at fighting than cooking.” Zhou Tianhao gave a bitter smile, “It was only after a recent battle with a powerful opponent that I realized cooking skills also have an impact on my strength.”

“Oh?” A look of confusion flashed in the middle-aged man’s eyes, “Well then, you should thank your opponent.”

“I will do that in my own way.” Zhou Tianhao clenched his fist slightly, “By capturing him!”

“Good luck.” The middle-aged man showed a harmless smile, handing over a takeaway box, “Your Autumn Blade Lemon is ready, please enjoy your meal.”

“By the way, my name is Luo Xian. It’s nice to meet you, young gentleman.” The middle-aged man gave a mysterious smile, “I believe, we will meet again soon.”

“My name is Zhou Tianhao.” Zhou Tianhao took the takeaway box with a smile.

Although the other’s way of addressing him was a bit peculiar, he could feel the kindness in his words.

After getting the takeaway box, he turned and left the stall. While continuing to walk forward, he couldn’t wait to open it.

The next moment, his footsteps faltered slightly.

Lying quietly in the tray was a whole autumn fish with the head and spikes removed, divided into two along the body, like a long, sharp blade.

The side with the skin had been barbecued and shrunk, with a unique golden hue on the grey-black skin from grilling, glistening with oil under the sunlight, looking exceedingly inviting.

The side with the fish meat was tender and white, as if biting lightly could separate it into small pieces along the grain, tasting its astonishing deliciousness and softness.

A rich and amazing aroma of Autumn Fish, laced with tendrils of lemon fragrance, brashly and fiercely infiltrated Zhou Tianhao’s nostrils as soon as he opened the tray, revitalizing him instantly.

This dish…

Zhou Tianhao didn’t hesitate, he picked up a slice of fish meat and put it in his mouth.

At first glance, he couldn’t find any trace of lemon in the dish.

But as soon as he took a bite, every inch of the Autumn Fish meat seemed to have a fresh sourness of lemon, making the deliciousness of the Autumn Fish itself stand out to the fullest.

The rich aroma lingered on the tip of his nose, the amazing deliciousness overflowed between his lips and teeth, and the tender meat of the Autumn Fish coupled with the perfectly crispy skin after grilling burst out a marvelous taste that made Zhou Tianhao amazed.

Having tasted a bit, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

This cooking skill level…

He needs to try the other two dishes from this stall!

Zhou Tianhao didn’t say a word and turned around to the end of the line in front of Luo Xian’s stall again.

When he stood in front of Luo Xian again, Luo Xian grinned.

“You see, I told you, we’d meet again soon.”
