Wangfu Noodle House’s two signature dishes, oil noodles and meat noodles, are actually dragon beard noodles and sauerkraut noodles.
The most important thing about dragon beard noodles is the skill of stretching the noodles, while sauerkraut noodles are famous for their flavor. Ye Chui chose to make knife-cut noodles to compete with dragon beard noodles in cooking skills because the skill of cutting noodles is equally amazing. As for the noodles that Ye Chui prepared to compete with sauerkraut noodles, they are also extremely outstanding in taste.
Of course, Ye Chui didn't know that Jim from Shengdefu was also preparing to make knife-cut noodles to compete with the nine-star chef from Wangfu Noodle House.
Ye Chui's seventh challenge in Chinatown was scheduled to take place at Wangfu Noodle House. This was also a convention. Since it was a challenge and a challenge, the cooking competition must of course take place in the opponent's restaurant.
On the day of the cooking competition, the weather was gloomy and it looked like it was going to rain. When Ye Chui and his group arrived at Wangfu Noodle House, photographers, directors, hosts and various staff from the BBC Good Food Channel had already arrived in advance and decorated the hall of Wangfu Noodle House to look like a program recording site. The civilian judges selected by the program team over the past few days had also arrived, a total of fifty people.
The selection process is supervised by Robert to ensure fairness and justice and that there will be no interference from Food King Enterprises.
And because this is the final and most important cooking competition, all the people in the Chinatown food industry are present. In addition to Ye Chui's group, Peng Song, Lin Li, Zhang Jiahui and other defeated opponents also arrived.
When he saw Ye Chui, Peng Song looked uncomfortable - Chinatown had decided on the new eight representative dishes. The Peng's Chicken, also known as General Tso's Chicken, in his restaurant was retained, but another high-energy chicken wing was eliminated. Because the method of making the high-energy chicken wings was exposed by Ye Chui, it was really no big deal, so how could it be qualified to be retained in the ranks of representative dishes
This made Peng Song feel uncomfortable, but at this moment Ye Chui was in a dominant position, so he still remained polite in front of Ye Chui.
Lin Li was a seasoned man, and it seemed as if he had long forgotten that he lost to Ye Chui and was tricked by Ye Chui into spending one million to buy two of Ye Chui's recipes. He greeted Ye Chui with a smile, as familiar as old friends.
Sometimes one has to sigh at such shamelessness.
Ye Chui's arrival naturally attracted the attention of many people. Soon, a famous food show host from the BBC Food Channel came to Ye Chui with a cameraman to interview him.
Ye Chui was very calm, Han Yuyan was a little nervous, and Tang Shanshan was excited - was she going to be on TV again
The host's brief interview with Ye Chui finally began. He answered his questions calmly and naturally. He had experienced many such scenes in his previous life, so naturally there would not be too many problems. Of course, Ye Chui answered the questions in Chinese, which were then translated into English by Han Yuyan.
Tang Shanshan stood behind Ye Chui and waved her hand, probably to greet her father and brother, and then made a scissors gesture with pride.
"Mr. Ye Chui, please wait a moment." The host who was interviewing the question finally couldn't stand it anymore and pointed at Tang Shanshan, "Excuse me, what on earth is this lady doing? Can you stand further away and not disturb our interview?"
Ye Chui looked at the overly excited Tang Shanshan with a sweaty look on his face, and said to the host, "It's okay, she's my friend, and she might be a little excited today, just pretend she doesn't exist."
The host was speechless, but since Ye Chui said so, he was too embarrassed to say anything more and continued with the interview.
This kind of interview was nothing more than asking the person involved about their mood, their views on the game, etc. Ye Chui answered very appropriately, without showing any shyness, and just happened to show the traditional Chinese elegant style.
"I believe this match is the last clash between China and Chinatown. Whether the food in Chinatown is more delicious or the food in China is more delicious, this match will tell." Ye Chui said at last. He smiled mischievously at the camera, "Of course, the last clash I mentioned may really be the last one."
If the chefs in Chinatown completely admit defeat in the future and acknowledge that they are descended from Chinese cuisine, then this will certainly be the final culinary showdown.
"I'm really looking forward to Chef Ye's performance. I hope you can cook delicious food that will amaze us." The host ended the brief interview with a smile, and the camera then turned to the judges present.
Among the seats arranged on site, there were some specially for Jiang Yuemei, Chen Tian, Chen Jiao and others. They found their seats and sat down. Ye Chui and Han Yuyan were about to go to the cooking area to take a look.
At this moment someone suddenly walked in front of him.
"Mr. Ye." The man who came was Andrew, who had met Ye Chu once before. He was a member of the Food King Enterprise and also He Chengqing's boss. Now He Chengqing was detained in a mental hospital in San Francisco due to drug overdose. Andrew could be said to be the culprit for her experience.
Ye Chui hated He Chengqing's persistence, but he also didn't like Andrew's cruel way of treating He Chengqing. Naturally, he didn't have a good face towards Andrew: "Mr. Andrew, what can I do for you?"
Andrew raised a finger and said in stiff Chinese: "This is your last chance, Mr. Ye. If you give up this competition, I can still keep my previous proposal and let you join the Food King Enterprise at the cost of the Man Han Banquet. Otherwise, no matter what the final result of this cooking competition is, you will become the enemy of the Food King Enterprise."
"Are you threatening me?" Ye Chui said with a smile. Ever since he first heard the name of Food King Enterprise, Ye Chui had no favorable impression of it, and this was even more so at the moment. He smiled a little coldly, "Food King Enterprise and I have been enemies for a long time, haven't we?"
He patted Han Yuyan's shoulder and walked past Andrew. Andrew turned around and said coldly, "Just when this cooking competition started, another highly anticipated cooking competition also started. The world's cooking god Gordon Ramsay competed against the talented chef trained by our Food King Enterprise. Gordon Ramsay will definitely lose this competition. The world's cooking god will fall to us. Mr. Ye Chui, do you want to think clearly about your position?"
Ye Cui had heard from Robert a week ago that Gordon Ramsay was going to compete with the genius chef, and the timing just happened to coincide with Ye Cui's competition.
Hearing Andrew's words, Ye Chui turned around and said, "Before the game is over, only God knows who will win or lose. Gordon may not lose." After a pause, Ye Chui suddenly showed a confident smile on his face: "If Gordon Ramsay is defeated by your genius chef, then I will challenge your chef."
After saying this, Ye Chui did not stay any longer and took Han Yuyan to the competition stage.
Andrew stared at Ye Chui's back in a daze, not knowing whether he was shocked by Ye Chui's arrogance or self-confidence. After a moment, he sneered: "You don't know what's good for you!"
It seems that his Chinese is really good and he can even use idioms.
…
The seventh competition in Chinatown is a bit special because it is about noodles.
Noodles are divided into two aspects: noodles and stewed dishes.
Making noodles is a craft, and in the eyes of many people it is even more of a skill. Therefore, in this food competition, the noodle-making part can be open to the public.
After all, seeing how the noodles are made is an important aspect of judging cooking skills, and in such occasions it is even more of a performance.
There are three stoves on the table, and the judges and cameramen can see directly when the noodles are being made.
At the same time, the kitchen next door is also divided into three parts. The noodle sauce is to be made in the kitchen, and how to make the noodle sauce is a secret of the recipe.
Not long after Ye Chui and his kitchen assistant Han Yuyan stood in front of the stove, Jim and Huang Yiyuan also appeared at the stove next to them. In this cooking competition, Huang Yiyuan was to be Jim's kitchen assistant, and when they saw Ye Chui, they both nodded to Ye Chui at the same time, but did not say much.
A week ago, Sheng Defu lost to Ye Chui. Huang Yiyuan was still very dissatisfied with Ye Chui, but after discovering Mrs. Gao's real plan, he was quite disheartened and no longer insisted on losing the game.
Jim even challenged Mrs. Gao from the standpoint of Chinatown. When they saw Ye Chui, they naturally had complicated feelings.
Ye Chui smiled and nodded, but said nothing.
Not long after, the third chef in the cooking competition walked onto the stage accompanied by Mrs. Gao.
Mrs. Gao's Wangfu Noodle House's head chef, the only top-level chef in Chinatown, is an old man who looks to be in his sixties. His name is Chen Jueyuan. He is skinny but looks very strong. As a world-class chef, he naturally shows a bit of pride. When he looks at the boy Ye Chui and the young man Jim, a hint of disdain appears in his eyes.
He stood directly on the stove on the other side of Ye Chui.
His nose seemed to be pointing upwards, as if this cooking competition was no suspense at all for him. Then, suddenly he lost his composure, and the cold and arrogant look on his face disappeared in an instant - because Jim took out his kitchen knife.
The black blade looked extremely sharp, flashing with cold light. Jim held the knife in front of his eyes and wiped it carefully with a white cloth. Huang Yiyuan, who was standing beside him, glanced at Ye Chui and Chen Jueyuan with a smug expression on his face.
“This is…” Chen Jueyuan was shocked.
Huang Yiyuan smiled and replied: "This knife is Huawei."
Chen Jueyuan had been coveting Old Cleaver Zhang's three top-quality cleavers for a long time, but he had never had the chance to get one. However, today he happened to see the second of the three cleavers appear, and he immediately felt an indescribable shock.
This expression made Huang Yiyuan very proud, but soon he was no longer proud.
Because Ye Chui took out his kitchen knife.
When they saw the kitchen knife with plum blossom pattern, Huang Yiyuan, Chen Jueyuan and Jim all stared blankly at the same time.
"This is..." Huang Yiyuan said in shock.
Han Yuyan had long been annoyed by the arrogance of Chen Jueyuan and Huang Yiyuan. Seeing this, Sister Han immediately said proudly: "This knife is the Zhanxiang knife."
Chen Jueyuan: “…”
Huang Yiyuan: “…”
Jim: “… ”(~^~)
