Chapter 564: Chapter 552: Flying Underwear and Wang Fan’s Wudu Food Guide

On both sides of the road were various restaurants, and among them, a small shop caught Wang Fan’s attention.

The shop itself wasn’t large, and a big red sign had the words "Benz Noodle House" written on it. The sign at the entrance only listed two items: small noodles and wontons, with the large portion being 3 liang and the small portion 2 liang.

Even in this terrible weather, there were people lining up at the door. Wang Fan thought that using this place as the finale for the noodle category was a good choice.

Along the way, a few shops had left a good impression on Wang Fan. Some had average tastes, but Wang Fan decided not to include them in his recommendation list. To cut someone off financially is like killing one’s parents. Skills can be practiced, and at least they use good ingredients, so there’s no need for harsh criticism.

Among the better small noodles and wonton shops were A Kun Traditional Handmade Snacks, Dong Zhong Xiang, Xiao Xiao Mian, and Zu Bai Wonton. If this Benz Noodle House was good, it could also be added to the list.

Before long, it was Wang Fan and Zhuo Qianqian’s turn. Zhuo Qianqian sweetly said to the lady boss, "Sister, we just need one liang of small noodles, we can’t eat more, but we’ll pay the full price."

The boss and the lady boss didn’t look too old, only in their twenties or thirties. Listening to Zhuo Qianqian, the lady boss quickly shook her head, "How’s that possible? One liang for one liang’s price."

With that, she took out a paper bowl and began adding the seasonings.

Chili paste, sesame paste, peanuts, soy sauce, red oil, mustard, salt, chicken essence, chopped green onions, Sichuan pepper powder, etc., the method was not much different from the previous ones, and the seasonings were very generous.

The boiled noodles were scooped out and placed into the bowl. Zhuo Qianqian picked up the chopsticks and started mixing. After mixing evenly, she handed the bowl to Wang Fan, letting him eat first.

Such a scene made those already shivering people in line tremble with cold and frustration.

In this freezing weather, I came out just for a bite, and I haven’t even eaten the noodles yet, now I’m fed with a mouthful of PDA?

Do you know what you’re doing is offensive?!

However, once Wang Fan took off his mask, exclamations came from the crowd.

"Hey?! Boss Wang?!"

"No way, it’s really Boss Wang?"

"Looks like it, and that seems to be the lady boss too."

"A few days ago, someone posted on Weibo saying Boss Wang accepted his invitation and would come to Wudu, but Boss Wang never mentioned it. I thought it was a joke. It’s true?"

The whispers grew louder, soon someone with social anxiety stepped out of line and asked Wang Fan, "Excuse me, are you Boss Wang?"

Wang Fan had just taken a bite of the noodles; they were quite good, firm and chewy, and the great feature was each strand was coated with rich soup, making it flavorful and enjoyable to eat.

The soup was rich and robust, and the assorted seasonings did their job well, making it spicy, numbing, fresh and appetizing.

The chili oil and Sichuan pepper powder in the soup fused together, giving off a unique aroma, and the green onions, minced garlic, and cilantro added layers to the texture.

However, if he made it, he would slightly adjust the proportion of these seasonings, and replace the chicken essence with broth, so the taste could reach a whole new level.

Wang Fan tasted carefully, aside from the numbing Sichuan and red peppers that made his mouth tingle like electricity, this noodle place was probably the best he had on this journey and could be added to the noodle list. However, he’d have to remind any fans who come to eat here to ask the boss to use less Sichuan or red pepper.

After hearing the question, Wang Fan inhaled to ease the numbing sensation in his mouth before saying, "Hello, I am Wang Fan."

His fans were foodies, completely different from star-chasing internet celebrity fans. Even if some were, they were for his cuisine, not for him. So he was always confident and open about admitting his identity.

Chi Rui’s eyes lit up hearing this, it’s really Boss Wang!

Does that mean I have the fortune to eat the strongest wild boss’s cooking this week?

"So it’s really you, Boss Wang. Are you setting up a stall in Wudu?"

When Wang Fan admitted, those in line got excited too, and hearing Chi Rui’s words, they raised their ears high.

Wang Fan nodded, "If nothing goes wrong, I’ll stay, but I haven’t settled on the location and menu yet. Once I do, I’ll post in the group and on Weibo. You’re all welcome to come and try if you’re free."

"Wow oops, it’s true? Haha, I’ve got to post on my social, we’ll have a feast this week."

"Whatever Boss Wang cooks is surely delicious. We’ll definitely show support then haha."

"Finally, this grand fortune is bestowed upon us Wudu residents. Boss Wang, please notify us promptly."

The noodle house boss and lady boss looked at Wang Fan puzzledly, not knowing why their regular customers suddenly reacted this way.

Is this young man some kind of celebrity?

Wang Fan, seeing these people, felt silly; couldn’t he just directly ask these locals where their go-to food spots were? Then he could try them one by one, saving a lot of time and stomach space.

He asked Chi Rui, "Hello, may I ask which place you usually go to for grilled fish?"

Chi Rui quickly replied, "I usually go to nearby Wushan Paper Grilled Fish. It’s been open for many years, and the taste is really good."

Someone in the line added, "Zeng Laoyao Fish Restaurant and Dafo Fish Restaurant are also good. I go there with friends when craving."

"Lin Yu Red Dragonfly Beauty Frog Fish Head is also delicious, Boss Wang should give it a try."

"Zhi You San He Fish isn’t bad either."

"Zhao Mangzi Grilled Fish and Ji You Anan Fish are also quite good."

As they mentioned each one, Zhuo Qianqian quickly typed the names into her phone, taking note of several places in no time.

Wang Fan deeply felt the enthusiasm of the Wudu people. After thanking each one, he said goodbye with Zhuo Qianqian.

Watching the two board the RV, Chi Rui and others hadn’t yet calmed down from the excitement.

That’s the nation’s top wild culinary boss they’re chasing!

Even after so long, the title stands strong under Boss Wang’s name, solid and unturned. Could his prowess really be doubted?

Chi Rui moved up to the stall, and the boss curiously asked, "Who was that? A celebrity?"

Chi Rui shook his head, "Not a celebrity, but almost, probably the hottest foodie on the internet now."

With that, seemingly remembering something, he patted his thigh as if regretting something, saying to the boss, "Oh man, boss, you just missed a golden opportunity. If you had only asked him about your noodle taste earlier, your small shop could have doubled its revenue. If you even asked whether there were areas in the noodles to improve, then we’d all have had a treat."

"Ah? Is that true?"

Chi Rui earnestly said, "Truer than gold!" 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

The boss looked at the now moving RV, wondering if it was still possible to catch up?

But thinking his business was already quite good, he dismissed the thought.

People ought to know contentment is happiness.

With a goal in mind, Wang Fan drove straight towards the destination, as Wushan Grilled Fish had branches outside, and thus planned to try the Wushan Paper Grilled Fish for lunch at its place of origin.

There were five Wushan Paper Grilled Fish places found in Wudu, and adhering to the principle of tracing back to the source, they headed to the main branch.

For those who handle spicy food poorly, ordering a spicy pot in Wudu is sheerly causing trouble for your own taste buds, intestines, and stomach. Even if it’s delicious, the taste buds will only remember the spicy sensation, so Wang Fan decisively ordered garlic-flavored mild spice, and didn’t choose pickled peppers.

The fish was tongue sole, also known as Qingjiang fish, 88 yuan for a piece, the server noted it was about two catties. Wang Fan also ordered some side dishes, with the total bill coming to less than 200 yuan.

After ordering, Wang Fan lowered his expectations a bit. This way of ordering fish likely wasn’t freshly slaughtered on-site but pre-prepped and iced. Although such a busy shop surely didn’t have stockpiles, compared to freshly slaughtered live fish, the taste would still somewhat fall short.
