Ma Lu, following the order of the menu, placed the first dish of tomato stewed scorpion meat in front of Hou Yihan.
The latter's throat involuntarily made a gurgling sound.
Hou Yihan had originally imagined this dish to have a soup base as red as blood, with charred scorpion carcasses floating in the middle.
Honestly, if it weren't for her full trust in Old Wang, even a foodie like Hou Yihan wouldn't dare to casually try such a bizarre food.
However, when Ma Lu served the dish, it caught Hou Yihan by surprise.
The rich tomato sauce was indeed there, made from the first batch of tomatoes and onions stewed together, with large chunks of tomato floating in it, these tomatoes likely having been added close to the end of cooking.
Soaked in the vibrant soup, sprinkled with chopped cilantro, it looked appetizing.
But… where were the scorpions?
