Aside from the two kitchen counters set at the plaza, dining tables were also placed at the other side that could accommodate at least 50 customers at the same time. One hundred customers— one by one—took their places at their designated seats, waiting for the appetizers to start serving. Since Huang Shenghao was the one assigned for the appetizers, salads, and soups; he prepared the plates for the diners with Tian Lingyu's help. Recreating one of the family recipes of the Ji family, Huang Shenghao was able to produce Spinach Carrot and Glass Noodle Salad. In the original family recipe, it called out for baby spinach; but Huang Shenghao decided to switch it to Chinese spinach instead. Because of its mild taste, baby spinach was the best choice when making a raw vegetable salad. However, since he would be incorporating on glass noodles, Huang Shenghao used Chinese spinach that was more mature than the baby spinach.
