Many people shared Su Qianqian's thoughts, and they were all eating heartily here.
Midway through, some people asked for additional steamed buns or rice.
Some even ordered a whole table full of dishes.
The waiters advised them to order less, but they said they'd take leftovers home.
A live-streaming host nearby originally wanted to introduce the flavors.
But he had brought two friends with him.
Those two friends couldn't stop eating.
It annoyed the host.
They were afraid of missing out on even a single bite.
Subsequently, as if forgetting about the camera, they started eating without saying a word.
This made the viewers in the live stream incredibly hungry.
"Isn't the host supposed to be reviewing? When did this turn into an eating show?"
"This is also a trend, after all, the host is eating so deliciously."
"I'm really envious of you local kids who can visit the Starry Sky Restaurant. We want to eat there too, but it's impossible to travel so far."
"Is it really that delicious?"
"Of course it's delicious. I've been following this host for a long time, and he's reviewed many things, but he's never eaten so messily before. It seems he's completely immersed in the delicious food."
"To be honest, everyone, I've just ordered takeout again. I can't resist anymore after watching this live stream."
The people in front kept eating, while those behind kept adding orders.
Plus, more people kept coming in.
The kitchen had prepared mountains of semi-finished products in advance, which were being consumed at a rapid pace.
They had previously made two large pots of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
Now they were all gone.
The waiter told them there were only 5 portions of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall left. They quickly crossed it off the menu.
Many people were craving the aroma of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
It was so impressive that with this dish, the other dishes seemed to pale in comparison.
This dish alone takes 6 hours to simmer.
There's no time to make it fresh now.
They thought they had enough to sell until evening.
Unexpectedly, before noon was over, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall was gone.
Sure enough, when the waiter announced this news, a wave of regretful voices could be heard.
Originally, people might not have wanted to order too much.
But the scarcer something becomes, the more people want to eat it.
So they started frantically ordering braised pork, and even those leaving wanted to take two portions home.
This braised pork could be reheated in the microwave and eaten with rice at home. They even wanted to take home several portions of the refreshing pickles.
Unexpectedly, on the restaurant's opening day,
The second item to run out was the refreshing pickles.
However, this was relatively simple to make.
Liu Chef and Chef Chen were making it on the side, preparing a large basin each time, which quickly ran out.
Mainly because their dishes were centered around meat and fish.
The fresh and crisp pickles could cut through the greasiness and allow people to eat more.
Just like that, the most unassuming side dish was actually made by the most skilled chef in the entire kitchen.
By the time Su Qianqian finished eating, she could barely walk straight.
The lard crackling buns had sold out early.
Her father kept complaining, "If only we had packed 10 more to take home."
They make these lard crackling buns at home too.
But they can never make the filling taste this good.
The bun skin was soft and fluffy, while the filling was tight and compact.
It carried the fragrance of lard cracklings, and the cabbage was crisp and refreshing.
It was truly impossible to eat enough.
Plus, it had the unique sweetness of vegetables.
It was too delicious.
Su Qianqian had come with only two people, thinking they had ordered too much and wouldn't be able to finish.
Who would have thought that the Old Man, let alone the braised pork, even mixed the soup with rice and finished it all.
As for the beef tendon, he ate it without making a sound.
After finishing, when Su Qianqian caught her breath, she asked, "How was it? Was this place okay?"
The Old Man gave a thumbs up and said, "Next time, I'll bring your third uncle to eat here. Your third uncle is a real foodie. If he knew about a restaurant like this, he'd drive 40 minutes, even an hour and 40 minutes to come here."
Su Qianqian saw people still coming in.
Even though it was past the usual mealtime.
But people kept coming, some even driving over 30 kilometers like her.
They were afraid of coming late and missing out.
Su Qianqian, like others, packed a portion of braised pork to take away.
She also asked for some of the refreshing pickles.
No wonder the Starry Sky Restaurant was so impressive.
Even the unassuming pickles were so refreshing and delicious.
Tomorrow, it would be perfect with porridge.
By the time they left, other customers had already taken their seats.
Seeing so many people, her father looked a bit worried, "I want to come back to eat tomorrow!"
Her father was now retired, with a decent pension.
Eating out was no problem for him, mainly because those lard crackling buns were so good, including the blood pudding, which was steamed to perfection.
It wasn't old at all, that's real skill.
It was smooth and delicious when eaten.
Even better than the delicacies in his memory.
On the way back, he told Su Qianqian, "Don't advertise this place, or we might not be able to get a reservation next time!" Her father was quite thoughtful.
But Su Qianqian looked at the constant stream of people coming in and said, "Even if I don't say anything, it doesn't seem to matter!"
The fans of Starry Sky Restaurant were always the most active.
Her father was left speechless.
On the way back, he kept praising her for finding such a good place.
Su Qianqian was also pleased with herself.
When she got back to the office, others gathered around asking, "Did you eat at the Starry Sky Restaurant? Was it good?"
Su Qianqian looked puzzled, what was going on? She originally didn't want to say anything, but how did everyone seem to know?
An older colleague from the office said, "You don't know yet? There was a live streamer behind you, I clicked in and saw you there. I wanted to go too, but it seems like they ran out of braised pork and Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. So I didn't go!"
When Su Qianqian heard that even the braised pork was gone, her first reaction wasn't that she had been live-streamed.
Instead, she felt lucky.
Fortunately, she had packed an extra portion before leaving.
Others asked if it was good, and she couldn't bring herself to lie, so she just nodded.
"Let's go together tomorrow!" her colleague sister said.
She felt a bit embarrassed and said, "I can't, I've made plans with my dad tomorrow, the Old Man loves to eat too."
The office sister could only regretfully make plans with others. Having so many people go didn't discourage her at all, instead, it made her more determined.
Su Qianqian went today and was going again tomorrow, this frequency of restaurant visits showed that the place was truly delicious.
The office sister was particularly good at spreading the word, and soon the entire office knew that the Starry Sky Restaurant was delicious. They might not be interested in other topics, but when it came to food, they were all ears.
They all said they must go and eat tomorrow, to see what all the fuss was about.
