Chapter 1859 Queuing!
He clearly remembered Shen Rou saying yesterday that the food street would not be officially open for business for a few more days, which meant it wasn't open yet. So why were so many tourists rushing to the food street?
"Mr. Chen, although the food street is not officially open yet, in order to ensure that the taste of all kinds of snacks meets the taste of the public."
"So during this period, the food street has been holding free tasting events and collecting feedback from tourists. Based on the large amount of feedback, adjustments are made."
Shen Rou explained that since it was a food street, the taste of the snacks was definitely very important.
If a street claims to be the largest food street in China, but the food at the end is really bad, then that's really inappropriate.
Chen Mo nodded slightly upon hearing Shen Rou's explanation.
"Then go and take a look."
He was still very curious about this food street. Since Tomorrow Group started having an employee cafeteria, he rarely ate out anymore.
I've basically never been to one of those food streets before.
"Okay Mr. Chen."
Shen Rou nodded.
The two walked together toward the food street.
Hurry up, the grilled squid at the food street is delicious, but it'll be sold out if you go too late.
The grilled cold noodles over there are also quite good.
I heard the stinky tofu there is really good; I want to go try it.
I'm going to eat some big meat skewers. I queued up for one yesterday, and I want to eat them again today.
I heard there's a really long line for the big meat skewers, you probably won't be able to get any.
【….】
As I walked, I could hear the constant chatter of tourists passing by.
Listening to the tourists' discussion, Chen Mo also became quite curious about the snacks on the food street.
The snacks that can make these tourists line up must be really delicious.
The two quickly passed through the grand archway of the food street and entered the interior of the food street.
"Mr. Chen, there are three streets and four rows of food carts here. Let's start our tour from there."
Shen Rou gave a brief introduction.
"Okay, let's go with this one."
Chen Mo glanced around briefly, then casually pointed to a snack street and began to speak.
With that, he took the lead and went inside.
At this time, there are tourists queuing up at the food carts on both sides of the food street. It is easy to judge whether the food is delicious or not. If there are many people queuing up, the taste should be good.
"Mr. Chen, which one would you like to eat? I'll arrange for someone to make a special portion for you."
Shen Rou glanced at the queues. Some of the popular snacks had more than 10 people in line. She wondered how long it would take to get there.
Why not just ask the person in charge of the food street to arrange for someone to make a special order?
"No need, let's just wait in line."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mo shook his head. In the years since he became the president of Tomorrow Group, he had never visited such a food street again.
His life is so well taken care of now that he doesn't have to worry about anything, but it always lacks a certain warmth and humanity.
It's nice to occasionally visit a food street like this and experience the atmosphere.
"Mr. Chen, which snack would you like to try? I'll help you get in line."
Upon hearing this, Shen Rou continued speaking.
"No need. I want to eat that snack. I can line up myself. If you want to eat it, you can also line up yourself."
Chen Mo shook his head and said, "Since we're out today, let's not think about the future profits of the food street, let's just have some fun."
Saying,
I walked to the back of a line and started queuing. This food cart made large meat skewers, which a passerby had mentioned earlier.
I just happened to see it, so I'll give it a try. There are about 15 people ahead of me right now, but they can make a lot of meat skewers at once, so it should be my turn soon.
The meat skewers were huge, as long as an arm, no wonder they were called giant meat skewers.
"Mr. Chen, then I'll line up for the snacks next door."
Upon hearing this, Shen Rou spoke up. Having been Mr. Chen's assistant for so long, she understood his thoughts.
She just wanted to experience the atmosphere of a food street firsthand, so she naturally wanted to be natural and not spoil Mr. Chen's interest.
Of course, we can't stray too far from President Chen. This food street is huge and crowded; it would be bad if we got separated.
Therefore, choosing the food cart on the side is the best option. The food cart on the side sells pastries, and there are only 6 people in line. The taste should be acceptable.
However, pastries are less competitive compared to grilled squid, large meat skewers, and grilled cold noodles.
"Ok."
Chen Mo nodded, then glanced at the snack cart Shen Rou had chosen, which sold pastries, and lost interest.
Pastries don't smell as good as meat skewers. The company cafeteria usually makes some pastries, but he only eats a little bit occasionally. He's not really interested in sweets.
After 10 minutes.
The second batch of large meat skewers was ready, and Chen Mo was able to get one. Since it was a tasting, each person could only get one skewer.
To avoid duplicate pickups, everyone needs to log in to an app on the food street, register with their real name, and scan a QR code using the app after picking up their food.
If you scan the code again later, it will show that the large meat skewer has already been claimed and you will not be able to claim it again.
Because there are more than one large meat skewer food carts like this in this food street. After all, the food street is so big, it would be difficult to make each food stall different.
Moreover, if a certain snack is very delicious and there are many people queuing up, it will greatly affect efficiency and make it too busy.
Therefore, the same food carts will be placed in other locations.
This way, if there are too many people queuing here, you can queue at other large meat skewer food carts.
"Let's go and take another look ahead."
Chen Mo, holding a large meat skewer, looked at Shen Rou, who was waiting to the side, and spoke.
There were fewer people on Shen Rou's side, so she got her pastries before him.
The two continued their journey into the food street.
Chen Mo strolled around while eating a large meat skewer in his hand.
"Is that grilled squid over there? Let's go take a look."
After finishing his large meat skewers, Chen Mo threw the skewers into the trash can and headed towards the grilled squid food cart.
"Mr. Chen, I'll go queue for the grilled cold noodles over there."
Shen Rou nodded.
With that, the two of them went to the back of the two lines and started queuing.
Shen Rou was secretly delighted. Could it be considered that she went shopping with President Chen?
Two and a half hours later.
The two left the food street from the other side.
"Are you full?"
Chen Mo looked at Shen Rou, who was standing beside him, and asked.
"Mr. Chen, we're not just full, we're stuffed."
Shen Rou said that she had just eaten a lot of snacks, and although she only ate a little of each snack, it added up to a lot.
"Let's go then, let's head straight to the amusement park. Li Zichen should have arrived by now."
Chen Mo glanced at the time and then spoke.
