Chapter 308 - 139: Ding! You Have a New Delicious Custom Order
S Level Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes!
Earlier today, when Su Chen first made this in his practice room, it was already A Level. Driven by curiosity, he kept improving it until the dish successfully achieved S Level!
It was a magical dish that didn’t need to be customized to a customer’s personal taste!
This proved that there wasn’t a single person in the world who disliked scrambled eggs with tomatoes!
The purpose of peeling them was to more easily release the tomatoes’ color and flavor.
Many people assume that plum tomatoes and common tomatoes are the same variety.
In reality... plum tomatoes are smaller, more uniform, and have a deeper red color. To achieve a similar effect with common tomatoes, peeling is a necessary step.
Moreover, common tomatoes have seeds that give them a sour taste. That’s why, after being lightly heated, the seeds and juice must be squeezed out. Peeling alone wouldn’t achieve this.
As for the scrambled eggs...
That time, Su Chen had resorted to an unrefined but highly effective method.
He started stir-frying the eggs the moment they were set, gradually cooking them further until they were just slightly firm.
And so, the dish finally reached the incredible S Level!
That was why the Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes Zhan Yang was now carrying away was the product of Su Chen’s constant experimentation and refinement.
Shen Ning watched longingly as Zhan Yang carried away an order of Stir-Fried Yellow Beef and a side of Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes.
The worst part was, after getting his rice, Zhan Yang dumped the entire serving of scrambled eggs with tomatoes right on top!!!
Then, he vigorously mixed it all together with a spoon.
The long grains of rice were coated in red sauce, with the soft, pulpy tomatoes and slightly golden-brown chunks of egg mixed throughout.
’It looks so delicious... If only I could have a bite...’
Shen Ning thought to herself, ’It would be worth it, even if I have to add a little to my workout, right?’
As a fitness enthusiast, it was second nature for her to subconsciously start calculating the calories of any food she saw.
’If it’s Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes...’
’Tomatoes have practically no calories, and the calories in eggs are negligible.’
’From what I saw of Boss Su’s process, he only coats the wok with cold oil before frying the eggs. Hmm... the oil... that’s practically nothing, too.’
’So...’
Shen Ning’s eyes lit up.
’Without a doubt! This is an extremely low-calorie dish. Time for me to go critique this boss’s skills!’
With that thought, Shen Ning didn’t hesitate for a second. She walked straight to the end of the line, getting in line right behind Zhan Yang.
As she walked over, she did a quick count—there were over forty people in line.
Given Su Chen’s speed, if several people ordered the same dish, he could even cook four servings at once!
So, Shen Ning wasn’t worried.
「Meanwhile...」
Zhang Jiayi and her three wealthy friends, fresh from showering and changing at a nearby spa, were happily strolling onto the Pedestrian Street.
"I haven’t had spicy food in ages. I ate two servings yesterday, and my butt was a little sore last night..."
Zhang Jiayi grabbed her wealthy friend’s hand, turning her head with a mischievous grin. "Hehe, was it because of the spice, or was it... hmm?"
"Oh, stop it! Honestly, you get more shameless by the day."
Zhang Jiayi laughed along. "I just hope it’s not too crowded today."
The words had barely left her mouth when the four of them spotted a massive crowd not far away.
And at the head of the line was the red, cartoon-themed food truck.
"Geez! This boss’s business is getting better and better!"
Zhang Jiayi was baffled too. "There weren’t this many people yesterday, and it’s still so early."
"Gasp! Hey, look! Isn’t that Coach Shen?"
They all looked over. At the very back of the line, a woman in form-fitting athletic wear was looking down at her phone.
It would have been hard to tell if it were anyone else, but who besides Shen Ning would wear a top emblazoned with her company’s logo and name?
Zhang Jiayi rubbed her head, chagrined. "Did Coach Shen fall off the wagon again today?"
The friend with the sore butt was a little bewildered. "Don’t tell me he’s serving another fat-loss meal today?"
"It’s possible!" another one of the women said. "But that’s not the point. The point is, should we go say hi to Coach Shen?"
Indeed, that was a problem.
For the four of them, getting a refund on their Su Xian membership fee wasn’t a big deal. It wasn’t much money to them anyway.
What was truly important was their reputation!
If word got out in the Jingzhou socialite circles that they’d run into their fitness coach at a street food stall two days in a row, wouldn’t the new, disciplined image they had worked so hard to build instantly crumble?
They would undoubtedly face countless questions and ridicule, and might even become a running joke for the city’s wannabe socialites to laugh about over afternoon tea!
Zhang Jiayi would absolutely not allow that to happen to her. "I don’t think we need to say hi today, right? I just noticed that the boss is getting food out really fast today. The worst-case scenario is we just have to wait a little longer."
"Mhm! Jiayi’s right. We can just wait a bit longer. It’s no big deal."
The others all agreed with this plan.
Based on how quickly the line was moving, Coach Shen would have her food in twenty-something minutes at most.
It wouldn’t be too late to eat after she left!
With that settled, Zhang Jiayi and her three friends piled into the G-Wagen parked in a roadside spot. After shutting the doors, they began meticulously editing the workout photos they had taken that day, all while watching the long queue.
