Episode 339 Realm
Perhaps she was really afraid that Zheng Ke would leave her behind, and the restaurant that Anier finally chose was the restaurant under the dormitory that Zheng Ke often went to.
After ordering the meal, Zheng Ke looked out the window boredly. After waiting for about ten minutes, I saw Orlens as sloppy as usual.
"Mr. Orens, long time no see. When Zheng Ke saw Orens, he hurriedly greeted him.
"What? I've been in Paris for so long that I don't even call. Orlens complained.
"I don't have your phone number - you don't say a word when you change your number. Zheng Ke retorted.
"Didn't I tell you?" Orlens was stunned, "Well, I'll spare you this time." You deliberately called me back today, it wasn't just to catch up, right? Oh, by the way, congratulations on making the cut. ”
"Congratulations on what...... It's just normal play. Zheng Ke pale his hand and said straight to the point, "Teacher, I want to ask you, what is the 'realm'?"
"Huh?" 'Realm'?" Orlens looked at Zheng Ke in surprise, and put down the menu he had just picked up, "You have entered the 'realm' now?"
"No, I don't. Actually, I don't know what a 'realm' is. Zheng Ke said with an embarrassed face.
"What is a 'realm'......" Orens, clasped his hands on his chest and leaned back in his chair, lost in thought.
The waiter on the side took the memorization menu and looked at Zheng Ke with an embarrassed expression, "Sir, look here......"
"Mr. Orens, would you better order first?" Zheng Ke reminded.
Orlens ordered a lemon cod and fell into thought again, Zheng Ke took the fork and looked at Orens, trying to see some clues from his expression.
"I'm sorry, I've been thinking about how to say it more vividly, but I don't seem to find it. Orlens was a little helpless, "To put it simply, the meaning of 'realm' should be interpreted literally. When a diner eats the dish, he feels that the dish itself is transmitting a certain feeling to him, which can make him feel immersed. ”
Zheng Ke rubbed his chin, and when he heard Orlens's explanation, he seemed to have a familiar feeling.
"Mr. Orens, your explanation is still too abstract. Anil reminded.
"I know, that's why I said, it's hard to explain......" Orlens looked helpless, fell into deep thought again, and after about half a minute, he suddenly raised his head, "If you want to explain it in one word, I think it's 'resonance', right?"
"Resonance?" Zheng Ke frowned.
"That's right, what emotions the chef brings into the cooking, or what he wants the diners to taste, and the diners can feel it clearly. It's not just delicious, it's about taking diners, together with the chef, into his world of gastronomy. To put it more bluntly, it's to let diners into your heart. ”
Orlens folded his arms over his chest and nodded, he was quite satisfied with the explanation.
"Inside ......"
Zheng Ke recalled the dishes he had eaten, and a person's shadow suddenly appeared in his mind - Si Yingshi.
After the Ten Masterpieces, he had the privilege of eating Si Yingshi's food, and the food made by Si Yingshi at that time gave him the feeling that this was - a food paradise built by the taste, a very calm harmony.
In other words, the food is not only delicious, but also has an emotion that touches the hearts of diners and makes them resonate with the dish. Zheng Ke muttered to himself.
"Yes, that's it. Generally speaking, the chef who has entered the 'realm' will elevate the level of the cuisine with the dishes he makes. Therefore, if you want to become the world's top chef, if you can have a 'realm', you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. ”
The waiter handed over the lemon cod ordered by Orens.
"That's it......" Zheng Ke's heart is at the top, is there such a big gap between him and top chefs of the same age?
"By the way, why are you asking me this question?" Orlens chewed on the cod and looked at Zheng Ke in bewilderment.
"My opponent in the next round may be Que Zhengqing, he seems to have entered the realm, and I ......" Zheng Ke blinked pitifully, "I haven't entered the realm yet......"
"Oh. Not everyone can do this too. Orlens nodded casually, "You have to come on." ”
Hey, teacher, don't be so light-hearted, I'm about to compete, and you're still talking here.
Zheng Ke was about to cry.
"However, although the chef with the 'realm' is very powerful, it is not impossible to defeat. Orlens lowered his head and cut off a small piece of cod.
"Why? Zheng Ke hurriedly asked.
"Because not every chef can enter the 'realm'. Not everyone in the top 10 of the Under-18 has this quality. Of course, in the case of the same cooking skills, the chef with the 'realm' does have a great advantage, and there is no way to beat the opponent without accidents. And the chefs who have just entered the 'realm' cannot be compared with those who have reached the 'realm' for some time. ”
"In other words, in a short period of time, it is almost impossible for me to enter the 'realm'. Zheng Ke sighed and said.
originally thought that he could wrestle with Que Zhengqing, but now it seems that he is still too young.
"Not really. Orlens shook his finger, "I just said 'if there is no accident,' and in fact, such accidents do. ”
"Huh, really?" the lost Zheng Ke's eyes lit up again, and he looked at Orlens urgently.
"That's right!" Orlens pricked his head, "Forcibly using your cooking skills to defeat an opponent of the same level, only one of you can do it." ”
"Who?" Zheng Ke immediately became interested.
Orlens said a name that Zheng Ke never dreamed of, "Fu Xiuyun." ”
"Fu Xiuyun, is that the first place in the U18?" Zheng Ke said in surprise.
"Yes, he had a duel with Bayer last year, and it was that match that made him famous enough in the West that many Western chefs now change their faces when they mention Fu Xiuyun. Of course, this was last year, and I'm not sure if he's reached the 'realm' this year. Orlens sighed and rummaged through the fork in his hand.
Fu Xiuyun: How could he know him? Moreover, even if he did, this guy might not necessarily help him. What about his next opponent, Que Zhengqing?
"Is there any other way?" Zheng Ke said unwillingly.
Orlens shook his head, "It's gone. Do you think that such a thing can easily happen? Tell you, you think too much. ”
