In Gaotai District, in a small restaurant with an elegant environment, Si Yingshi, one of the "Ten Elites", was cooking attentively in the kitchen separated by glass. After completing three dishes, he faced the person who came to serve the plate. The service staff took the trouble, and some mothers-in-law even said: "Please be careful not to ruin the shape... I really ask you to be more careful... Please serve it to the table slowly, slowly..."
The two service staff smiled wryly and repeatedly assured Si Yingshi that they must be careful, and then Si Yingshi let them take the food away.
Even within the few steps from the kitchen to the dining table, Si Yingshi was still staring at the movements of the service staff. His gaze made the two service staff gleam on their backs. It was obviously just a very simple process of serving dishes. It seems that it is not a delicate dish but a mercury bomb. Once it loses its balance, it will explode with a bang.
After finally delivering the three dishes to the table, the two service staff were relieved, as if they had just escaped death, but when they thought about how many times they would have to experience such a "life and death crisis" tonight, they gave birth to another baby. The urge to die.
How come working for this "Top Ten" member is more tiring and painful than working for other members of the "Top Ten" with bad tempers...
"Miss Akayama, please use it. This is the theme dish of today's restaurant, 'Symphony of Autumn Ingredients'. There are nine dishes in total. The first one is Sakura Shrimp. Please taste it slowly."
Kobayashi Ringtong said to Chitong, who was sitting opposite him.
"Then I won't be polite!"
Chitong nodded slightly to Ryuto Kobayashi to express her gratitude. After all, this meal was her treat.
The cherry blossom shrimps were delicate and beautiful, seeming to sparkle under the light. Akito took a fork of them with his dinner fork and put them directly into his mouth.
"Well, this dish..."
Chitong's eyes widened slightly, as if he had been greatly shocked.
"How is it? It's delicious, isn't it?"
Xiaolin Ringtong looked at Chitong with a smile, this is Si Yingshi's cuisine, you must say "delicious".
She followed Akhitomi everywhere for almost a day today, and she accompanied Akhitomi to almost all the simulated shops opened by the students at the "Moon Festival". Teruki's "Kuga Hotel", or the mock restaurant owned by third-year students and members of the "Top Ten" in Gaodai District, the most common evaluation given by Chitomi is "average", and the highest is "ok", and this sentence "It's okay" is still for the cooking of "God's Tongue" Nakiri Erina.
Although Nakiri Erina is ranked tenth among the "Top Ten", the ranking of the "Top Ten" does not absolutely represent the level of strength. The contribution to the school and the "Shokuji"'s wins and winning rate are the " The most important consideration in ranking "Top Ten".
For example, Kobayashi Ryokan once heard that in the history of Totsuki, there was a senior who liked to use dark dishes with unknown meanings in "Sokuji", so he often lost inexplicably to those with huge differences in strength. Competition, but even so, he still firmly sat in the second position of the "Top Ten". His strength can be imagined. At that time, it was recognized that he had stronger abilities than the first one, just because "Shiji" lost too many , so he could only settle for second place.
Similarly, the reason why Erina Nakiri is ranked last among the "Top Ten" is not because she is the weakest, but because she has rarely fought against the "Shokuji" in person. Most of the "Shokuji" are done by her subordinates. At the same time, , a lot of her energy was involved in the affairs of the Totsuki Group, and she had to try out new dishes for the chefs of major high-end restaurants in Tokyo. She was very busy, and her contribution to Totsuki Academy was not enough, so she was named one of the "Top Ten" There has been no movement in the rankings. If we really want to rank based on seniority based on cooking skills, Kobayashi Ryokan estimates that Nakiri Erina's strength can at least rank among the top four of the "Top Ten". After all, the advantage of "God's Tongue" is too great.
However, soon, the power of this "God's Tongue" can be used by myself and others. Thinking about it this way, I am really a little excited!
Putting away her thoughts, Xiaolin Ringtong focused her attention on Chi Tong again. To be honest, she didn't quite understand Chi Tong.
The first thing I don’t understand is Chitong’s stomach. What is the structure of this person’s stomach? He ate at one hundred and nineteen stores in one day. Oh, no, counting the current restaurant level, it’s one hundred and two. There are ten of them, and they don't offer any discounts. Basically, you have to eat a portion of the main dish in each simulated store, so the food stacked together is definitely taller and heavier than her.
Is this still a human being? Ringtong Kobayashi considers herself a foodie, but it took her five days to eat all 120 stores. It is precisely because of this that she knows how difficult it is.
The second one is, does Chitong’s tongue have no sense of taste? Why can't you just say "delicious"? Totsuki Academy's proud "Moon Festival" couldn't find a dish that she could say was "delicious", which made Kobayashi Ritsou a little bit irritated.
It was because of Chitong's self-esteem that was aroused by Chitong's behavior that Kobayashi Ryodan invited Chitong to eat at the simulated restaurant of Si Yingshi, one of the "Top Ten Heroes".
You know, Si Yingshi's restaurant only accepts three tables of guests at a time because all the dishes are prepared by Si Yingshi. The reservations have long been full. If it weren't for her reputation, Ringtones Kobayashi, ordinary people would want to jump in the queue. impossible things.
Regardless of whether what you said before is true or not, when it comes to Si’s cooking, you should always say “delicious”!
Kobayashi Rgentan looked at Chi Tong with a playful and confident smile.
Seeing Chitong's shocked expression, Eve felt curious and rarely picked up the fork.
Today, she had been running around with Akhitomi all day, but she only ate a little bit at Nakiri Erina's place, so she was indeed a little hungry.
"good."
"good."
Eve and Chitong expressed their evaluations at the same time.
"What?"
Kobayashi Ringtong's smile froze, "Do you also answer this for Lian Si's cooking?" This kind of cuisine that can penetrate the soul cannot impress you? Your tongue is made of stone!
“It’s better than other food you can eat on the street, but that’s about it.”
Chitong smashed his mouth and said.
"Then your reaction just now..."
Kobayashi Gentian asked.
"Hmm..." Chitong thought for a moment and said, "The first bite was indeed quite good, but after careful review, I felt it was a lot worse. But if you ask me what the difference is, I can't tell you."
Maybe it’s because the cherry blossom shrimps are too small and you can finish them in one bite, which is not satisfying!
Chitong thought to himself.
"The delicious taste of the ingredients has been fully developed. Even Nakiri-san's cooking can't compare to this. It's really amazing."
After Eve carefully tasted the cherry blossom shrimp, she put down her fork and said.
"Then what?"
Kobayashi Gentian heard that there was a follow-up to Eve's words, and asked quickly.
"Then there was no more."
Eve replied.
"..."
Kobayashi Rgentian felt like he had been fooled.
Seeing the "Are you kidding me" look on Ringtong Kobayashi's face, and thinking that it was really hard for Ringtong Kobayashi to spend the whole day with her and Chitong and treat them to food, she patiently explained: "The problem It's because of 'no then'. In this dish, I felt all the deliciousness of the ingredients, but other than that, I couldn't feel anything more. That's why I only say I know the food.' It’s okay’ reasons.”
Kobayashi Ratsudon put away his cynical expression and said to Eve: "Eve, you don't understand this. The concept of Tsukasa's cooking is to completely erase the self from the cooking, leaving only the deliciousness of the ingredients, and infinitely delving into the ingredients. The delicious taste of the ingredients is brought out to the extreme through cooking. Devoting yourself and your pride to cooking, this is Tsukasa, people call it, the 'white knight of the table'!"
After saying that, Kobayashi Rgentan regained his cynical expression and laughed: "How about it? Do you think it's so cool? The first time I heard it, I laughed so much that my stomach hurt, but ah, this kind of Shi is really very impressive!"
In his words, there was infinite pride and pride for Si Yingshi.
"That's right..." Eve nodded, and then asked, "Then it's the same if I eat raw ingredients, so what else do I need to cook?"
Xiaolin Gentian choked. When ordinary people heard this, shouldn't they be moved by Si Yingshi's "craftsman spirit"? How could she say such strange things?
"Little sister, the deliciousness of the ingredients itself is hidden. Only we cooks can develop it. How can it be the same as eating raw ingredients for you!"
Kobayashi Gentian said funnyly.
Then give full play to the deliciousness of the ingredients, the combination of various ingredients, the use of condiments... Cuisine is such a huge subject, and how difficult it is to maximize the deliciousness of the ingredients. How can it be said that it is "the same as eating raw food" !
"Yeah, yeah, I know."
Eve nodded. Of course she knew that cooking was not that simple, but...
Oops, I was influenced by Brother Kai, so I couldn't help but quarrel when I saw such a good opportunity to quarrel.
Eve began to examine herself.
However, if a cook can only maximize the deliciousness of ingredients, isn’t there a natural upper limit? That Si Yingshi's food does feel good to eat, but it's just "good". It doesn't have the rich texture and endless aftertaste of Yan Kai's food.
Similarly, she finally understood why she felt uninterested when eating other people's food after eating Yan Kai's food, because other people's food lacked the infinite variety of Yan Kai's food.
Eve felt that she should be grateful to Si Yingshi. If it weren't for him, she wouldn't have realized why Yan Kai's cuisine was so different.
However, as a contrast to Yankai cuisine and the secret of the delicious taste of Yankai cuisine, this Si Yingshi should be the top-notch existence among "general cooks", right?
Well, it’s a pity that it’s still far behind Brother Kai!
At this time, Si Yingshi, who had been cooking in the kitchen, came out and asked a table of guests. He asked many questions, which were also very trivial. He asked whether the air conditioner in the restaurant was cold, whether the lights were too dim, and whether the height of the table was appropriate. Not suitable... just like when he spoke to the waiter serving the dishes before, he was trivial to the point of a mother-in-law, and even looked weak. He did not have the strong aura that Eve imagined the "Top Ten" should have. field.
Erina Nakiri, who is also one of the "Ten Elites", has a very strong aura and is absolutely stunning in this role.
"Listen, although Si asked a lot of questions, he didn't ask him how the food tasted at all. This is his absolute confidence in his own food. As long as he develops the ultimate deliciousness of the ingredients, there will be nothing wrong with such a food! "
Kobayashi Gentian said to Eve.
"..."
After listening to Xiaolin Gentian's words, Eve was silent for a while, and then suddenly said: "You are not a fish, how do you know the joy of fish?"
"ha?"
Kobayashi Rgentan was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Eve was talking about.
As a standard Totsuki student, someone who was promoted from the junior high school to the high school, her general education level was actually only elementary school, and she had slipped through the nine-year compulsory education. Eve suddenly said something very difficult to pronounce, Of course she couldn't understand what it meant.
Seeing the confusion on Kobayashi Gendan's face, Eve explained: "This is a sentence from the Central Plains Taoist classic "Zhuangzi Autumn Waters". It probably means, you are not a fish, how do you know the happiness of fish? This passage It involves a debate that is still controversial. Of course, I am not trying to debate anything here, and my Chinese is not that good. I just use this sentence simply."
After explaining, Eve continued: "The cook is not the diners, how does he know whether the diners are satisfied or not? Even before serving the dishes, it seems that he didn't ask us about our taste, right? He just served the dishes directly, and then trusted us He will definitely be satisfied. You say he is confident, but I think it is more like arrogance."
After listening to Eve's words, Kobayashi Ringtong looked at the primary school student (Eve frowned) and his eyes became serious.
The air was silent for a while, and Kobayashi Ringtong suddenly laughed: "Of course we know, because we are cooks, and we even know the diners' appetites better than they do. They will definitely be satisfied with the dishes we cook!"
Eve tilted her head and used her brain to understand what Kobayashi Gentian said. She thought for a while and said: "I remembered what Brother Kai said to me. People who have never wanted to educate the market will always be ignored. The market’s education is terrible, do you want to be educated by the market?”
If you say it's delicious, it's delicious. I'm *you!
"Will not!"
Kobayashi Rgentian leaned forward and looked across the table at Eve.
"Because we will master the standards of gourmet food, and the market will be defined by us. You said, how can we be educated by the market?"
There was a deep light flashing in Kobayashi Ringtong's golden eyes.
At the same time, in the simulated restaurant of Ning Ning, the sixth seat of the "Ten Elites" in Gaotai District, Natsukawa Masuo and the "Top Ten" Nine Seats Rui Shanedazu were also sitting opposite each other. With a reserved smile on his face, Natsukawa Masuo said to Rui Shan Zhijin also said softly: "Eisan-san, our Natsukawa Group is very sincere and the conditions are very generous. Are you willing to cooperate with us?"
Eizan Ezu also shook the tall glass in his hand, ignoring Natsukawa Masuo's astonishing beauty, and completely focused on the red liquid in the glass.
Natsukawa Mahryo glanced at the glass bottle in Eishan Ezuya's hand. Well, it was tomato juice.
Eizan Edazu also drank the tomato juice in the tall glass, then looked at Natsukawa Masuo and said: "Your company's conditions are very good, but unfortunately, I refuse!"
"Why!"
Natsukawa Masuo showed eagerness.
This time her acting skills are finally on the line, which truly shows her desire for cooperation and her confusion and anxiety about Eizan Ezuya's refusal to cooperate. She is willing to give her performance a 90-point rating - excellent, But there is still room for improvement.
"Let me ask you, if you have a stock in your hand, and you know that it will rise sharply tomorrow, will you stupidly sell it immediately?"
Eizan Ezu also showed an enigmatic smile.
"Of course not, Ruisan-san, what do you mean..."
It’s not just about his acting skills, Natsukawa Masuo is really dignified this time.
"Totsuki, the sky is about to change, and I, Eizan Edazu, will stand at a higher position."
Eizan Ezu also stood up holding the empty glass goblet.
"Miss Natsukawa's offer is very good, but I'm sorry, that's the price of the old Eizan Etsuya. If you want to buy me now..." Eizan Edazu also showed a winning smile, "...you have to pay more. !”
Natsukawa Mareyo stared blankly at the swollen Etsuya Eiyama, and she gradually understood that the current situation seemed to have changed beyond her imagination.
Yuanyue... is going to change?
