A cooking competition is just cooking for chefs, and many people think that cooking does not take much time. But in fact, it is not the case. Chefs in ordinary restaurants have to cook countless dishes every day, and it becomes a habit, and it does not seem to be too tiring. But a cooking competition is different. A cooking competition requires gourmets to spend their time and energy to cook.
Cooking one dish is more time-consuming than an ordinary chef making a whole day's worth of dishes in a restaurant. Moreover, for a truly skilled chef, cooking requires not only skills but also inspiration, intuition and so on, which are undoubtedly extremely energy-consuming.
It is normal for chefs to spend a lot of time resting after participating in a cooking competition.
However, Ye Chui said that he would accept the next game in three hours and he did not need to rest.
Why doesn't he need to rest
There are two possibilities for Ye Cui's choice. The first possibility is that he is very arrogant and does not take Jim's challenge seriously at all. However, everyone present knows that this is not true. Ye Cui shoulders the expectations of the entire China. He is definitely not such an impulsive and ignorant person. His choice must have been made with full confidence.
Then there is only one other possibility.
In the previous match, Ye Chui did not try his best.
When Ye Chui was competing with the seven-star chef Miao Shengsong, he once fainted due to exhaustion. However, that cooking competition was a little special. Before the competition, Ye Chui rode a bicycle for two hours, and also devoted some of his energy to guiding An Xiaoxiao in making hot pot. When Ye Chui arrived at Manhan Building, he was already in a state of exhaustion. After that competition, Ye Chui was naturally exhausted and fainted.
But it’s different now. In a state of complete victory, even in a cooking competition with eight-star chef Nick Cheung, he still didn’t try his best and still had enough energy to face the next challenge in three hours.
This discovery made many people in the hall feel the difference.
Jim's expression was slightly angry. He felt that Ye Chui's decision was an insult to him.
"Are you sure?" he asked coldly.
Ye Chui smiled and nodded: "I'm sure."
"I will be waiting for you at Shengdefu in three hours."
After saying this, Jim simply turned around and walked towards the outside of Linjia Pot. He Chengqing was melancholy for a moment and hurriedly chased after him.
Following closely behind was Huang Yiyuan.
"Master, are you really going to compete with him in three hours?" Han Yuyan approached Ye Chui with some concern, "Aren't you tired?"
"It's okay, I'm fine." Ye Chui shook his head and said, seeing the concern in the eyes of Han Yuyan, Chen Tian, Tang Shanshan and others, Ye Chui smiled again, "It's really okay, the two dishes I just made don't require any technical skills, and the dishes I usually cook for my two sisters at home are more complicated than this, what can happen to me?"
He just said it casually, but then there was a snap and a sound came from behind him.
When he turned around, he saw that Lin Li accidentally threw the cup in his hand to the ground - he was originally planning to drink some water.
Not only him, but also Zhang Jiahui and Mrs. Gao standing next to him all looked unhappy...
In this cooking competition, Ye Chui just did it casually...
These two dishes, for which Lin Li spent a million to buy the recipe, do not require any technical skills...
Can you not be so discouraging
Ye Cui smiled awkwardly, he really just said it unintentionally.
Of course, this is true.
We had lunch at Shenjiao.
Shen Zhongda warmly invited Ye Chui and others as well as five gourmets and Robert to dine at his new restaurant. Shen Jiao is still called Shen Jiao, but Shen Zhongda mentioned that he will change the name back to Lao Bian Dumplings after a while.
In fact, Shen Zhongda is also a businessman, and in some ways he is no different from Lin Li. However, his filial piety and the qualities he displays at times make Ye Chu like him very much. Moreover, although Shen Zhongda has the characteristics of putting interests above everything else, he will not go back on his word. Since he has promised that Shen Jiao or Lao Bian Dumplings will become the inheritance of Chinese cuisine in the future, his promise will definitely not change.
In the huge private room, Ye Chui, Han Yuyan, Tang Shanshan, Chen Tian, Li Xiuyun, Jiang Yuemei, Shen Zhongda, Robert, and five gourmets were sitting together. The restaurant manager Wang Fu kept bringing up plates of crystal clear dumplings that looked like jade.
Dumplings are a representative delicacy of China and all five gourmets have eaten them. However, they have never eaten dumplings so delicious. Laobian dumplings are not only delicious, but also a work of art. Chris, Hannah and others, who originally did not care much about China, now seem to have re-recognized this time-honored food culture system.
Chris even threatened that he would definitely visit China when he had time and taste the Manchu Han banquet prepared by Ye Chui himself - he had already heard about the deliciousness of the Manchu Han banquet from Robert.
Ye Chui naturally agreed happily and promised to receive Chris well in his own Manhan Building when the time comes.
Around the dining table, the atmosphere was joyful.
Han Yuyan sat next to Michelle. I don't know if she knew that this old man had some kind of relationship with her grandfather, so Sister Han was now very happy to help Michelle renew her old relationship with Old Man Han.
Ye Cui was sitting with Robert.
At this time Ye Cui mentioned Gordon Ramsay.
"Where is he now? He promised me at Manhan Building that he would come and watch my cooking challenge." Ye Chui said in unfamiliar English - he could understand English smoothly and could also barely express his meaning, but his pronunciation was not accurate, so he needed Tang Shanshan as a translator in formal cooking challenges. But now that it was a private communication, there was no problem for him to speak himself.
When Robert heard Ye Chui's words, a trace of worry flashed across his face: "Gordon is now... preparing for a very important cooking competition. The competition will start in a week, and he can't spare the time."
"What?" Ye Chui was stunned. Gordon Ramsay was the world's god of cooking. This had long been confirmed. He was the only ten-star gourmet in the world. It was said that no one had dared to challenge him five years ago, but now someone was challenging him. Judging from Robert's expression, the situation did not seem optimistic.
"Who is that?" Ye Cui asked in surprise.
"That was a..." Robert's fat face was a little red, and he seemed to be trying hard to think of an adjective. After a moment, he finally thought of a way to describe it, so he looked at Ye Chui and said, "That was a person who looked very similar to you."
Ye Chui was stunned.
Robert continued, "He is only 28 years old this year. Can you believe it? He is already a nine-star chef. He is unique in the world."
"Twenty-eight years old, nine-star?" Ye Chui didn't think that was anything amazing - of course, this was his personal feeling. Standing in front of a giant, it would be nothing special for an ordinary person no matter how tall they were. But Ye Chui knew that in this era of gourmet food, this was definitely an amazing achievement. It was just that Ye Chui didn't understand: "If such a person exists, he must be very famous. Why have I never heard of him?"
In the era of gourmet food, chefs are like celebrities. Not to mention such a culinary genius, even people like Tian Xiaodu and Qin Yiyue who got the five-star chef certificate at the age of 30 are international celebrities. But Ye Chui has never heard of a 28-year-old nine-star chef.
"You haven't heard of him because someone deliberately concealed his affairs. He has experienced many culinary challenges since his debut, but he never made them public. The star title awarded by the Gourmet Association was also hidden, just for this one blockbuster." The sadness on Robert's face seemed to be even deeper. "Gordon is the world's culinary god, the most prestigious chef in the world. To step on him, my God, that would be as shocking as the arrival of a god, isn't it?"
Ye Chui figured out something: "This genius chef was trained by Food King Enterprise?"
Robert nodded, his expression a little heavy: "Gordon... might lose."
"Maybe it's not that pessimistic." Ye Cui comforted.
"No, that's what Gordon said himself." Robert shook his head. "Gordon has never lacked confidence so much. He has been the judge for that young man in three cooking competitions and knows his opponent's strength very well. The young man challenged Gordon the first time he saw him. It seems like he was born to challenge Gordon."
Ye Chui was silent. If the God of Cookery Enterprise cultivated such a super chef and put the most prestigious chef in the world under his feet, then the God of Cookery Enterprise would occupy an unshakable position in the food industry.
"The results of the competition haven't come out yet, don't worry so much." Ye Chui continued to say to Robert with a smile. In his heart, he had one more sentence that he hadn't said -
"If Gordon Ramsay is defeated by that super chef genius, then I will be responsible for stepping on that guy."
…
Inside the Sentosa Hotel.
This is one of the two remaining hotels among the seven major hotels in Chinatown that have not yet been challenged by Ye Chui.
In fact, the Shengdefu restaurant in Chinatown, San Francisco is just a branch, managed by Huang Yiyuan. And because Jim is the head chef here, this branch is actually more famous than the main restaurant.
The upcoming challenge was already known to everyone, which made some of the waiters in the store feel nervous.
Huang Yiyuan has been locking himself in his office since returning to Shengdefu.
And Jim continued to stay in the kitchen.
He Chengqing disappeared for a short while. Half an hour before the agreed time, she returned to Shengdefu. At this time, her eyes were full of viciousness and gloom... (~^~)
