On the day of the grand opening, Liang Zhi and Cheng Chili invited a large group of young nobles to reserve tables, with Pei Zhan and Liang Chen among them. Since it was Du Mingqian who organized the event, it was unclear how Liang Chen and the others managed to persuade Brother Qian to make an appearance.
With their presence, many noble and official households took notice. Not only were all the private rooms on two floors booked for lunch, but the evening slots were also fully reserved.
Thus, almost the entire capital city became aware of the grand new restaurant, attracting even the most prestigious noble youths from the court.
Several imperial censors from the Imperial Censorate, known for their refined tastes, heard that Wanbin Building had hired a descendant of the last dynasty's imperial chef family to cook, piquing their curiosity to try it. However, when they sent someone to reserve a table, they found it was already full.
