It was a ‘lucky day’ in itself.

On JTBC show ‘Street Food Vendor’ that aired on the 15th, the bicycle restaurant ‘Yori Jori’ was happy with the customers that flocked in the second day of business, but then they were faced with the biggest crisis ever as they quickly ran out of ingredients, had to stop taking orders, and it even rained.

Earlier, on the first day of business, former manager Bae In-hyeok barely managed to solve the problem of the squid and chive pancakes sticking to the plate and breaking during business, but soon after, he once again faced a crisis where the dough would not come together.Ryu Soo-young showed his side as the main chef by adjusting the consistency of the dough to help Bae In-hyeok make the perfect squid and chive pancake.

‘Cooking Cooking’, which had been somewhat peaceful, faced an emergency situation of running out of ingredients due to a shortage of the mushroom butter rice and cabbage that were supposed to go with the gochujang samgyeopsal.Hwang Gwang-hee, who volunteered to be a kitchen assistant because he was not good at speaking, went out to get the ingredients and used a translation app to do the shopping perfectly, and even hitchhiked back successfully.

The first day’s sales were 15 bowls of gochujang samgyeopsal and 16 bowls of squid and chive pancakes, for a total of 31 bowls.After finishing their first business in their lives, Ryu Su-young, Hwang Kwang-hee, Shin Hyun-ji, Bae In-hyeok, and Jeon So-mi gathered together and suggested improvements for smooth service, such as distributing numbered tickets, adding a drink table, and setting up take-out containers, raising expectations for a better second business.


The second business held in the square in front of Cadiz City Hall introduced seafood tteokjjim and honey chicken to captivate families in celebration of the Three Kings Day, which is Children’s Day in Spain.Ryu Soo-young added paprika powder instead of red pepper powder to the seafood tteokjjim to create a mild spiciness familiar to the people of Cadiz, and targeted the tastes of the locals with a kick using the natural sweetness of apples.He also caught the eyes and noses of passersby with honey chicken, which is made with Andalusian honey sauce on top of Korean-style chicken, which is loved worldwide.

As expected, people who had been hanging around ‘Yori Jori’ before opening surprised everyone by forming a long line within 2 minutes of opening.Nevertheless, thanks to the rave reviews from customers who tasted seafood tteokjjim and honey chicken and the improved management of the hall, business went more smoothly than the first day.They even set up additional tables because of the influx of customers, and it felt like a huge hit in just one day.

However, the whole place was full and they were so busy that they couldn’t prepare any food for the takeout customers, and they were in a situation where they had to stop taking orders because they were about to run out of ingredients for all the menus.To make matters worse, it started to rain, so Shin Hyun-ji apologized to the customers and gave them refund instructions, and Jeon So-mi, who had been full of energy the whole time, ended up shedding tears.How will they solve the crisis that came along with the momentum of a huge hit?
