Chapter 400 Selection of Famous and High-quality Snacks (Medium)
Half past ten in the morning
The selection of famous snacks of the Jianghai Food Festival officially began.
The judges of the organizing committee of the food festival were divided into four groups of ABCD, and began to conduct a preliminary selection of the food snacks declared by more than 200 booths in four ways.
Only those who have passed the primary selection and obtained the qualifications will be able to enter the final selection on the last day of the food festival.
On the last day of the festival, the judges of each group of ABCD gathered to make a final decision on the snacks that made it to the finals.
After the judges discuss and reach unanimous approval, the award-winning snacks of famous snacks will be announced on the same day.
Today's primary election is underway.
In the primary selection stage, each booth owner can apply for three delicacies, but only one can pass the primary selection and finally enter the finals.
The booths of the food festival have long been divided into four areas of ABCD by the organizing committee.
Bai Xiaobai's booth was classified as Area C.
The three judges in charge of Area C have begun to evaluate the delicacies declared by each booth one after another according to the predetermined plan.
These three judges.
One is middle-aged in the Mediterranean, an old man with black-rimmed glasses and slightly gray hair, and a young woman.
When the three of them tasted food at each booth, they were accompanied by photographers all the way.
These are all staff members of Jianghai Satellite TV Station.
The city government attaches great importance to this food festival, so the leaders of the TV station also personally ordered that the events selected by this food festival must be completely filmed.
Therefore, Jianghai Satellite TV dispatched four reporters and four photographers to follow the four groups of judges of ABCD to shoot separately.
The gourmet snacks declared by the booth merchants of the Jianghai Food Festival are carefully selected and made with all their might.
The deliciousness speaks for itself.
In the process of following the shooting, in the face of a variety of colorful and fragrant delicacies, the photographer's saliva has to flow.
But none of the three gastronomic judges in Zone C were particularly satisfied.
After tasting the food of several booths, the middle-aged Mediterranean said to the white-haired old man next to him, "Gu Lao, this food festival is not very good, the food is average." ”
The old man named Gu Lao didn't speak much, but judging from his expression when he tasted the food, he was not particularly satisfied with the food of this year's food festival.
The young beauty judges eat very highly, but she only eats one bite of each delicacy, and there is no second bite, and there are no exceptions so far.
The three judges of Zone C went to various booths to taste the food, which attracted a lot of attention from passers-by in this area.
Although it was a week and many people were at work, the flow of people at the food festival was slightly reduced, but at first glance the difference between this and the previous two days was not particularly large.
The crowd followed the three judges, and the discussion began.
"The judges of the food festival are all big names. A young man, seeing the three judges, immediately let out this emotion.
There was an uncle around him who didn't know the judges, and he couldn't help but casually ask, "Young man, do you know these judges?"
Although the young man is young and young, he has a lot of knowledge, but he is also willing to answer the uncle's questions.
"The middle-aged man in a gray down jacket is the host of Jianghai Satellite TV's 'Everyday Food' column and the chef, this person's name is Lin Yupeng, who is in his early forties, I heard that he learned to cook in his early years, and he also served as the sous chef of a big hotel. ”
Because of his love for travel and food in his life, Lin Yupeng resigned and became a food traveler. It is said that he has traveled to all the second-tier cities in China, and claims to have eaten more than eighty percent of the food types in China, but I don't know if he is bragging. ”
The young man breathed a sigh of relief and continued to introduce, "That woman's name is Hu Weijia, don't see her twenties, but she is not famous, she is nicknamed 'Jianghai's No. 1 Beauty Foodie', and there is another nickname called 'Jianghai Food'"
When the uncle heard this, he immediately asked, "Young man, what does this 'one bite of Jianghai food' mean?"
The young man talked eloquently, "Uncle, you listen to me." ”
"This Hu Weijia is the only daughter of Jianghuai, the richest man in our Jianghai. She has a wide range of knowledge, has a golden tongue worth a thousand gold, and specializes in wine tasting at the University of Saint-Prussia in France, not only wine, but also food, she knows what ingredients are used when she tastes it, and if it is not a top food, she has always eaten the first bite and will not eat the second bite, so people in the food industry gave her the nickname 'A Bite of Jianghai Cuisine'"
"This Hu Weijia is also very insightful about food, and her comments are also quite in-depth, but as long as we have a slightly large-scale food selection competition, we will definitely be able to see her. ”
"Young man, you've seen a lot. The old man praised.
The young man listened to the old man's praise, and became more active in showing his knowledge, "The remaining old man with glasses is the leading celebrity chef in our Jianghai Province, called Gu Leiting." ”
"This uncle is estimated to be sixty or seventy years old this year. I happened to read his news introduction on the Internet before, this person used to hold a senior culinary technician qualification certificate in Huaxia, worked as a chef in a five-star hotel in the imperial capital, and later retired, and returned to Jianghai to recuperate, rarely appearing. ”
"Only occasionally I will be a guest food show as a judge. Because of his bad temper, very sharp reviews, strict requirements for food, and he does have the ability and qualifications, people in the Jianghai food industry respectfully call him 'Gu Lao'"
After listening to the young man's introduction, not only the old man, but also the passers-by who listened carefully around him also had a preliminary understanding of the three judges.
This Jianghai Food Festival is worthy of being the largest, the lineup of food judges in Area C alone is so strong, plus 9 judges from the other three districts, this is to invite celebrities from the food industry in the entire Jianghai Province.
Passers-by were amazed.
The three judges were already down the booth, and they were fast.
The selection process for the three judges is very simple, and they basically don't talk too much.
Because of the arduous task, they stayed at each booth for a short time, and after basically tasting various delicacies, if they felt that it tasted good, they used a small book to register the booth number of the booth.
After tasting all the declared food and snacks in the district, the three juries of each district synthesized the opinions of the three people in the district and finally demarcated ten delicacies in the district to represent the district to enter the final selection.
Of course, the more the ten pieces of food in the district can finally win the famous snack award, in addition to the hard factor, it also indirectly proves the vision of the judges.
Therefore, the committee is very strict in tasting each delicacies.
Along the way, the three of them tasted all the delicious food. However, after tasting the delicacies declared by more than 30 booths, the three of them were basically full.
On Lin Yupeng's small notebook, there are a total of 8 delicacies that he is satisfied with.
Hu Weijia's small notebook records a total of 5 delicacies that she is satisfied with.
And Gu Lao's small notebook is completely blank.
This means that there is not a single delicacy in the more than thirty booths in front of him that he is truly satisfied with and worth recording.
The three judges stood up and came to Bai Xiaobai's booth.
