Chapter 832 - 732: Snack-Like Dishes

Xia Anni’s agent frowned slightly upon hearing this.

Liu Yiming and Yao Shi each looked worriedly at Xia Anni and Fu Yu, worried in their own way.

The agent couldn’t help but ask, "Chef Fu, given Anni’s situation, can you customize prescription meals?"

Fu Yu actually felt that it was worth taking a risk to try cooking a prescription meal because he had recipes that were popular among clients with anorexia, as well as therapeutic menus specifically for endocrine adjustment.

But in terms of Fu Yu’s confidence in tonight’s prescription meal?

Not much, really!

After all, this was his first time attempting to blend two different recipes.

Reflecting on it now, the task content released by the system seemed truly step-by-step.

He had just completed the operation of improving plating based on the reference recipes, only to immediately have an upgraded opportunity.

Integrating the essence of two recipes while discarding the useless parts.

Considering this, Fu Yu did not eagerly want to put it into action immediately but instead looked at the agent and said, "How about this: I need to learn about Miss Xia’s personal dietary preferences and then attempt to customize a prescription meal for her situation."

The agent nodded hastily, "Sure! Do you need us to give you some privacy?"

Fu Yu nodded, mainly needing to communicate with Xia Anni to see if there were any aspects of her situation that he was not yet aware of.

Having outsiders present would definitely make communication inconvenient.

The agent agreed, and Liu Yiming arranged for Fu Yu and Xia Anni to go to the restaurant alone for the prescription meal customization.

The others stayed in the living room, waiting patiently.

Yao Shi was always quite adept at socializing, yet he seemed somewhat distracted at the moment.

Although knowing that Xia Anni’s situation might not be good, having seen her in person, he couldn’t help but feel heavy-hearted.

The situation was somewhat problematic!

Xia Anni’s condition seemed to be seriously bad; she looked weak despite appearing decent on the TV screen, unexpectedly frail in person.

The unhealthy look could not be concealed even with cosmetics.

The others present were amateurs, neither understanding culinary arts nor prescription meals.

Although Yao Shi hadn’t had much contact with prescription meal cooking, he knew how difficult it was to prepare a table of palatable food for anorexia patients.

The agent was visibly worried yet showed considerate understanding on the surface. He even discussed with Yao Shi about what kinds of prescription meal customizations had been handled by music restaurants in the past.

Currently, the concern was that regardless of the prescription meal’s effect, the key was to make the presentation appealing.

Additionally, the taste should be somewhat mild.

However, prescription meals are certainly cooked with Chinese medicinal materials. Can the medicinal flavor be suppressed by the taste of the food?

How should prescription meals be prepared?

What types of dishes should be made?

These are all questions; also matters the agent is particularly concerned about.

Xia Anni’s situation is very special.

While chatting with Yao Shi, the agent mentioned her dietary situation recently.

As they were talking, Fu Yu and Xia Anni arrived at the restaurant.

Sitting opposite each other, Fu Yu asked Xia Anni in detail about her dietary preferences.

After listening to Xia Anni share truthfully, Fu Yu felt a sense of dread.

Not very workable!

Xia Anni’s anorexia seemed quite serious.

As Fu Yu guided her to express her dietary preferences, he saw in the floating video from Xia Anni’s thoughts only a chaos.

Regardless of what food Xia Anni mentioned, in her mind, there appeared only dense fog, hazy and unclear.

Clearly, Xia Anni genuinely had no appetite, being very aversive towards food—unwilling to even think about it.

Nevertheless, Xia Anni was very cooperative, describing her dietary preferences one by one.

For instance, liking spicy foods, but not daring to eat any to maintain her skin condition.

Does not eat greasy food, does not eat junk food, prefers mild flavors, usually consisting of boiled greens, chicken breast, shrimp, and various fruits.

And the more she detailed her preferences, the worse her complexion became, visibly suppressing the urge to retch.

Fu Yu understood and stopped asking further.

Xia Anni’s situation is quite special, making prescription meal preparation very challenging.

Because her eating disorder itself is already extremely severe, even before she got sick, she long adhered to low-energy diets, which can lead to neurological anorexia, with some compulsive symptoms and depressive emotions.

This is detailed content found in the recipes favored by anorexia clients.

This condition, if it worsens and the patient refuses to cooperate with treatment, or if the mental state simply does not improve, can have fatal consequences.

Fu Yu took advantage of the thinking gap to quickly browse the popular recipes among anorexia clients.

To his surprise, many of the dishes indeed appeared quite creative.

This seemed less like a cookbook.

Mainly like a compendium of creative plating art.

Dishes elegantly presented like artworks, yet the key point being that many dishes did not have the typical sensory appeal.

Instead, they offered no feeling of fullness, looking purely like things to nibble.

With small portions, simple looks; many dishes even resembled no more than a dish.

Fu Yu silently noted down a few plating styles that seemed interesting.

Then he began browsing endocrine therapeutic adjustment recipes.
