Chapter 580: The Beauty of Chinese Food (I)

"Fatty, are you sure Lao Liu will come?" Lin Xiao held his cheek in his right hand, and looked through the hanging curtain at the brightly lit stage in front of him.

"Uh...... I think I'll come, I've already called the boss. Five Eyes said uncertainly.

"Then did he say he would come, or would he not come?"

"How do I know?" "Five eyes spread his hands: "The old man only said that he knew, and did not give a clear answer." ”

"Forget it, I'll do it later. Lin Xiao scratched his head and said helplessly.

"You're up, aren't you too angry? Five-eyes pursed his lips and leaned his head forward.

"Sister! You actually said that I was too angry!" When Lin Xiao heard this, he suddenly became furious, grabbed Wuyan's ear, and made a rotational movement.

"Damn! it hurts! it hurts!" "Five-eyed struggled.

"I can't help it. Seeing the five eyes begging for mercy, Lin Xiao let go of his hand and sighed.

"The Chef Contest is jointly organized by several TV stations, so the contemporary Chef is also the image spokesperson of the contest and has the obligation to participate in some programs with the competition. Lao Liu refused to come, so I was the only one who came out to replace him. ”

"The boss usually doesn't like to show his face, but this time the eldest sister has an accident again, he must not be in the mood......"

"Forget it, this show has come to an end, today is the last one, if Lao Liu doesn't come, he won't come. ”

"Who said I wasn't coming. A voice came from behind them.

Wuyan and Lin Xiao looked back, Liu Mang was holding a box in his hand, looking at them with a smile.

"Boss!"

"Brother Liu!"

Liu Mang was wearing a straight black tunic today, and he deliberately shaved his beard, took off the black-framed glasses he usually wore when he worked in the store, and his hair was oily and shiny with hairspray, which was quite a bit of the style of the youth gang boss in "Shanghai Tang".

"Don't say anything in advance, I'll pick you up. Lin Xiao stepped forward and punched Liu Mang in the shoulder.

"Boss, you ...... today" The five eyes looked left and right around Liu Mang.

"What's wrong?"

"Very sassy!" Five-Eyes gave a thumbs up.

"Don't you want to meet international friends? Liu Mang said with a smile.

Now this show is called "Chef God Competition", which is a showdown of cooking skills between professional chefs and top chefs. It is jointly organized by several TV stations such as Jiangdong, Kyoto, and Shanghai.

The contestants come from all over the world, and are said to have extremely high international standards and the most professional reviews, representing the highest level of food competition.

And in the last episode, that is, at the end of the show, the winning champion team will have a friendly match with the chef god of "Chinese Chef God Competition" as the final finale of the show.

Liu Mang has watched two episodes of this show, and when Five Eyes called him, he couldn't prepare for it at first.

Because in Liu Mang's view, the gimmick of this show is far greater than the content of cooking. And the chefs who came to participate in the competition are not of high level, compared with the "Chinese Chef God Competition", the gold content does not know where it is low.

However, just when he was about to find an excuse to shirk it, the bounty of the kitchen god space was suddenly released.

[Bounty Mission: The Beauty of Chinese Cuisine Maintains the Honor of Chinese Cuisine in front of the public. When the task is completed, the reward is 1 million Emotion Points, 1000 Exchange Points, and 500 Soul Perception of the Holy Chef. 】

In front of the reward of the kitchen god space, Liu Mang was tempted, and immediately closed the store and rushed to the Shanghai market.

"Which team won this year?" asked Liu Mang, who put the box he was carrying on the ground and asked.

"The French team. Lin Xiao replied.

"I'll just go up and talk to them today, right?"

"That's right. Lin Xiao nodded and touched his chin: "But let me remind you, you'd better not take it lightly, this year's French leader has a lot of background." ”

"What's the reason?" asked Five-Eyes.

His name is Aaron Barsad, and he is 33 years old and a rising star in the French culinary scene. ”

"Rookie, are there still few rookies that the boss beats?" Five-Eyes sneered.

"Don't underestimate anyone, he's a student of Paul Bocuse and the winner of this year's French Chef Competition. ”

"Paul Bocuse, the world's culinary god?" Liu Mang asked for a moment's astonishment.

"You know?" Lin Xiao's expression was a little surprised: "I thought you didn't pay attention to these." ”

"I've heard Master Wyshu mention that Paul Bocused is the number one chef in the world and the godfather of French cooking. Liu Mang replied.

"I'm curious, how is the ranking of chefs in the world ranked, and what is the standard?" asked Five Eyes.

"To be in the top 10 of this list, they are all geniuses in the culinary world, in addition to having a talent in cooking, they also need to accumulate experience for a long time, and the restaurant under their name must meet the standard of three Michelin stars, and then the world-renowned foodies will vote together, and the vote rate must reach 90% to be on the list. ”

"Cut! It's still the foreign devils' own set of standards after a long time. Five-eyed snorted disdainfully: "With the boss's cooking level, the top three must be fine, this list has a lot of moisture." ”

"Brother Liu, he's on the list. Lin Xiao said.

"On the list?" Liu Mang was stunned: "Why don't I know?"

"It's because you didn't pay attention. Lin Xiao took out his mobile phone from his pocket: "After you came back from the United States, the list of world chefs has been updated, and you are currently ranked tenth." ”

"Really?" Liu Mang took Lin Xiao's mobile phone, and sure enough, he found his name under a long list of people's names.

"Why is it tenth? Ida Huaishu is ranked third. Five-Eyes leaned in.

"Tenth is already remarkable, okay?" Lin Xiao rolled his eyes at the five eyes: "You must know that the restaurant under Brother Liu's name was not selected for Michelin, nor did it go through the vote of gourmets, and it rushed up purely by prestige." If you look at the list, he's the only Chinese chef on the list. ”

"That's ......"

"Of course, if Brother Liu participates in the World Chef God Competition next year, it is not impossible to win the first place. Lin Xiao said again.

"No, why can't you see the names of Chinese in the top fifty?" Liu Mang asked as he swiped the phone screen, checking the rankings.

"Well...... this" Lin Xiao thought for a while: "The list was originally ordered by Westerners, and Chinese food is not dominant, which is a natural thing." Moreover, China has fully opened its doors and its international influence has increased in the past ten years, and the status of Chinese cuisine in the world has not been reasonably evaluated. Moreover, our Chinese chefs rarely participate in world competitions, and they have never even heard of it. Last time, if you didn't go to the United States, many foreigners' understanding of Chinese food is still at the level of street fast food. ”

"Makes sense. Liu Mang nodded thoughtfully: "It seems that if you want to promote Chinese cuisine in the world, you still have a long way to go." ”
