Master Ji was a man of his word who did not brook any objections, and he let Xin Lin enter the inner part of the kitchen.
Xin Lin had been at Taoyao Pavilion for several days but it was her first time entering the inner part of the meal preparation area, and she couldn't help but feel a bit curious.
The inner area was much more spacious than the outer area, roughly the size of two main rooms of Taoyao Pavilion combined.
As it was close to opening time, all the ingredients and various furnaces and stoves had been prepared.
Freshly cleaned ingredients and newly acquired medicinal herbs, chopping, garnishing, the capacious inner area was surprisingly staffed by more than a dozen people, most of whom were assistant chefs, primarily one-star and two-star Spiritual Delicacy Masters, all of whom were ready for work.
The other assistant chefs in the inner area also showed looks of surprise as they turned to look at Xin Lin.
