Chapter Fifty-Four: A Chef from Japan

The world is dark, and the moonlight is hazy. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

At the airport in Poplar City, where the lights are bright and people come and go, a middle-aged man in a suit and a round hat walks out of the exit of the plane with a white box in his hand.

He looked at everything unfamiliar around him, and the corners of his mouth twitched, and he smiled.

Then, he beckoned.

A yellow cab quickly stopped in front of him, and he pulled the car door and slipped into it.

"Go to the Dinker Hotel. He made a weird accent.

"Dining room? Okay. ”

The driver listened to the other party's strange accent, and went to the five-star hotel restaurant honestly without a detour.

It was clear that this strange-speaking man was a foreigner.

The driver looked at the man's clothes and appearance, and speculated that he should be from Japan.

Ten minutes.

With the driver's familiarity with this area, he soon drove the vehicle to a five-star hotel.

The hotel is brightly lit and surrounded by high-end cars, which can be described as a busy and prosperous business.

"Bang!"

The middle-aged man got out of the car and looked at the signboard of the hotel:

"Diner's house? ”

A strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he walked towards the hotel with a white box in his hand.

"Welcome, what do you want?"

As soon as the middle-aged man stepped into the hotel lobby, a neatly dressed female waitress immediately walked up and said with a professional smile, very polite.

"I'm a three-star chef from Japan, my name is Hayashi Ze Taihe, and I heard from a friend that you have a very good chef here, and I want to challenge it. ”

"Chef from Japan, wait a minute, I'll tell the manager." ”

When the waitress saw that the strange-speaking man was from Japan, she quickly walked away and informed the manager at the upper level of the hotel on an internal phone.

After a while, a hurried man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a gray suit "pedaled" downstairs from the second floor.

As soon as he came to the middle-aged man, he smiled:

"My name is Zhou Dazhi, I am the hotel manager, what is this foreign friend going to do in our store?"

"Of course, it's a cooking competition, let me see if you and other Huaxia are worthy of the title of one of the three major culinary countries. ”

"What? ”

Manager Zhou's face was hesitant, not knowing whether to agree or not.

The reason why this restaurant is full of customers is that there is a five-star chef with excellent skills.

The braised pork made by the chef is called a braised pork with all the color and flavor, basically the dignitaries and dignitaries around the surrounding area will come to the box here almost every few days, and then call for such a moderately fat and thin, and extremely delicious braised pork.

If you take a bite of that braised pork, it will be as comfortable as heaven.

"What's the matter, isn't the chef at your restaurant here today?" asked Lin Ze Dahe.

"Yes, yes, but I just don't know, he doesn't agree. ”

"Hahaha, if you don't dare to face a three-star chef like me, I'm afraid your Huaxia cooking skills are just good, and they don't work at all. ”

"You!"

The manager listened to the other party's ridicule, and was angry in his heart, so he gritted his teeth and said:

"Okay, you wait here, I'll ask the chef in the back. ”

With that, the manager quickly moved to the back kitchen, while the waiter asked the strange Japanese man to rest.

At the same time, in the huge kitchen of the dining room, it was steaming and the sound of bells and bells banging on iron pots came and went.

Young chefs with chef's top hats are cooking there, and they all seem busy.

However, there is a middle-aged man who is about forty-seven or eighteen years old, who seems to be more leisurely, and is holding a knife at the moment, gently cutting off a piece of pork belly.

"Pedal, pedal, pedal. ”

Manager Zhou's anxious running sound appeared, he passed through the other chefs, came to the back, and said in a serious voice:

"Master Li, there is a cooking master from Japan who wants to ask you to compete in cooking skills to see who makes the best dishes, do you accept it?"

"What, a chef from Japan, how could he challenge me in some way? I've never been abroad?"

The chef, known as Master Li, was stunned at first, and then his face was full of doubts.

"I don't know, you can come and talk to the Japanese chef in person. ”

"It's fine. ”

So, under the leadership of the manager, the two quickly rushed to the hotel lobby.

At this time, the hotel lobby is bustling with activity, and many customers turn their chairs to watch when they hear that a Japanese person is coming to take on the challenge.

"Haha, this Japanese chef is quite bold, he dares to challenge Master Li, he is the best chef in the restaurant. ”

"Who knows, it may be that this guy wants to die, let's eat slowly and see the excitement. ”

"This Japanese chef looks pretty good, why is there something wrong with his brain. ”

All the people present have basically tasted the braised pork made by Master Li, which is called a fat and not greasy, the meat juice is delicious, and when you bite into it, the pork belly seems to be melted, it is very delicious, and it is not stuffed at all.

The Japanese could understand Mandarin, but there was a strange smile on the corner of his mouth, and he didn't pay much attention.

The reason why he came here was that he heard from a friend who had been to China that there was a chef with good skills in the restaurant in Baiyang City, so he rushed over to try it out.

Soon, the manager brought Master Li over.

"My name is Li Hu, I don't know what this friend calls me, and how do you know me?" Master Li said politely.

"Haha, my name is Hayashizawa Taiga and I'm from Hokkaido, Japan. A few days ago, a regular customer in my store said that your braised pork is good, so I came to see if it was really what my friend said. ”

The chef from Japan said politely, but his eyes were full of disdain.

Because this is not the first time he has come to China to challenge, but the ninth, and the previous eight times he has all ended in victory.

And Master Li listened to Lin Ze Dahe's explanation, and suddenly realized.

This restaurant is full of people, and there will inevitably be some foreign friends who come to try it, and it is not impossible to spread it to other countries.

"What's the matter? You, a five-star chef in China, dare to compete with me?"

"What do you want to compare? Vegetarian or meat?"

"There is no limit to the dishes, just bring out your best. As for the commentators, I know a foodie who is already on his way and will be there soon, so we should start first. ”

Lin Ze Dahe said with a smile, preparing everything properly.

He's been here many times, so naturally he knows some foodies, so as soon as he got off the plane, he called a foodie.

"That's not good, who knows if the people you invited will be biased towards you. ”

Master Li said cautiously.

At this moment, so many people in the hotel are watching, if he loses, the reputation of the entire hotel will basically be bad, and there will inevitably be a Chinese abuse in the future, and he will naturally have to treat it seriously.

"Haha, don't worry, that person is a foodie from a food classic magazine, and there is absolutely no way he will do anything that is biased in my favor. ”

Lin Ze Dahe explained with a smile.

At this moment, a forty-year-old man in a gray shirt hurried from outside, carrying a small box in his hand.

"Look, he's coming. ”

As soon as Lin Ze Dahe saw the gray-shirted man who came in, he instantly said happily.

The gray-shirted man nodded to Lin Ze Dahe, and introduced to everyone:

"My name is Zhao Yan, I am a gourmand of the classic food magazine, I have tasted tens of thousands of different dishes, and the magazine can sell about 1,000 copies a day, absolutely authoritative. ”

As his words spoke, some of the foodies in the store immediately echoed loudly:

"It turns out that you are Zhao Yan, I read every issue of your magazine, I am really hungry. ”

"Yes, if it weren't for the decline of the magazine now, you would definitely be able to sell tens of thousands of copies a day. ”

"Last time, I just looked at the restaurant introduced by your food magazine, and I found this place. ”

The echo of those guests made Master Li suddenly feel at ease, and then straightened his chest and said confidently:

"Since you have to compete, let's start now, in this hall. ”

"Okay, I'll defeat you in front of everyone!" Lin Ze Dahe also said loudly, excited and looking forward to it.

So, under the manipulation of the waiter, two stoves were obtained.

The cooking competition has officially begun!
