Chapter 29: Intermediate Cuisine
After the incident at the museum, Kiyotaka Narumi and Sonoko became friends completely. This morning, Yuan Zi and Xiaolan came to visit the office together. After a simple greeting, Yuan Zi said, "Mr. Narumi, are you free tomorrow?" ”
Narumi Qinglong said: "There is no arrangement for the time being. ”
Yuan Zi said with a look of anticipation: "Tomorrow night Saitama Prefecture will hold a Tianxia Night Festival, Xiaolan and I want to play, but we are both girls, a little worried about safety, can you go with us?" ”
Narumi Qinglong glanced at Xiaolan, and couldn't help but complain in his heart, with Xiaolan's force value, do you still need to worry about safety? However, when it comes to the first night festival in the world, Narumi Kiyotaka quickly thought of a case related to it, if nothing happens, there will definitely be an accident at that time.
Probably worried that Narumi Kiyotaka would refuse, Sonoko added: "My family has a hotel there, and all the food and lodging are free. ”
Narumi Kiyotaka thought for a while and said, "Okay, let's go together then!" ”
Conan suddenly felt bad, what kind of joke, let this guy hang out with them, what could be more unsafe than that? Conan hurriedly shouted, "I'm going too!" ”
It's just a number of children, and the garden thinks it's okay, Conan just threw it to Xiaolan to take care of, and when the time comes, only she and him are left alone, and the garden has already begun to look forward to it.
The next day, the four of them arrived in Saitama Prefecture by car and checked into the Grand Hotel of Sonoko's house. The festival doesn't start until 8 p.m., and in the evening, the garden invites everyone to dinner at the hotel restaurant.
Narumi Qinglong has rarely eaten out, but the star of this hotel is not low, Narumi Qinglong tasted, compared to the general restaurant, the taste is really good, but still feel that there are many flaws. Conan eats what Narumi Kiyotaka makes every day, and his mouth is getting more and more tricky, and he is not interested in the food in front of him.
Xiaolan couldn't help but wonder: "Doesn't Conan like to eat these?" ”
Conan said casually: "It's not as delicious as Brother Qinglong's cooking." ”
Xiaolan was surprised: "Mr. Narumi is also good at cooking?" ”
Narumi Kiyotaka said: "It's okay!" ”
Seeing that Narumi Kiyotaka and Conan had just tasted it, Yuan Zi secretly wondered, this table of food was specially prepared by the hotel, didn't the hotel do it seriously? It was probably the mood that affected the appetite, and the garden seemed to feel the same, and his face suddenly became even more unhappy.
The manager on the side noticed something was wrong and asked the waiter to go to the kitchen to see what was going on. The second lady of the Suzuki Group has always been low-key, but today she suddenly came and personally asked people to prepare dinner, so you can imagine how much she cares. If you dare to do something perfunctory, don't do it as a manager!
It didn't take long for the waiter to bring a plate of new dishes up, and Narumi Kiyotaka tasted it, as if sensing something, and smiled lightly: "It's better than before, but it's a pity that the force is too strong, and it has destroyed the texture of the ingredients themselves, so I suggest that he make it a little smaller next time." ”
The manager said respectfully: "I will help you convey it." ”
It didn't take long for another plate of new dishes to be served, and Narumi Kiyotaka tasted it again, "This time the heat was too small, and the deliciousness of the ingredients could not be fully stimulated. So that he doesn't have to rush, he can do it slowly. ”
One dish after another was served, and Narumi Kiyotaka made comments one by one, praising the advantages and not forgetting to point out the shortcomings, just like the teacher was correcting the students' homework. At this time, even the garden could see that what Narumi Qinglong said was okay, obviously just modest.
After the last dish was served, a young man dressed as a chef walked over and said with an unkind face: "Dare to ask which guest kept pointing just now?" ”
Thinking that the other party was here to find trouble, the garden was suddenly unhappy, "You made these dishes?" My friend just said a few words about you, what's wrong? ”
The manager hurriedly stepped forward to grab the cook, for fear that he would annoy the garden. The chef shook off the manager, it shouldn't be ordinary people who can say those words, the eldest lady of the garden is directly excluded, and the children are also excluded, only Narumi Qinglong and Xiaolan are left. Looking at the hands of the two of them, there are traces of palms, and Xiaolan is obviously longer.
Although Xiaolan is very young, her cooking skills do not matter her age. The cook affirmed, "If my guess is correct, I guess this lady must have said those words just now." ”
Yuanzi suddenly burst out laughing, and Xiaolan said embarrassedly: "I didn't say those words just now, it was Mr. Narumi who said them." ”
When the chef heard this, his face immediately turned red. Among the four, Minghai Qinglong is the oldest, and if he were an ordinary person, he would usually tend to say what he said, but Minghai Qinglong is in a special situation, and the actual time in charge is far less than that of Xiaolan.
Sensing that the other party was smart but was mistaken by being smart, Narumi Qinglong said: "I'm different from you, there's no need to take it to heart." ”
If it's a beauty, forget it, but the other party is a man, and the chef said unhappily: "Since you think that the dishes I make are not good, if you have the ability to come by yourself, let me see if it is as powerful as you said!" ”
When commenting on the other party's cooking just now, Narumi Kiyotaka has always had a feeling of eagerness to try it in his heart, just like an obsessive compulsive disorder for food, and he wants to forcibly correct it. Although I had a similar feeling before, it was not as strong as it was tonight, "Okay, please borrow it from your kitchen!" ”
It's the peak dining season and the kitchen is busy, but the hotel has more than one kitchen. Coming to a kitchen that had already been prepared, Narumi Kiyotaka picked out the ingredients according to the dishes just served. The chef saw it in his eyes, and his contempt was immediately put away. Good cooking starts with choosing ingredients. The ingredients selected by Narumi Kiyotaka may not be the freshest, but they are all the most suitable.
The moment Narumi Kiyotaka held the knife, the momentum of the whole person suddenly changed. The flowing movements, the rhythmic sound, like a real three generals, are unparalleled on the battlefield, and they come with BGM!
Narumi Kiyotaka seemed to enter a wonderful state, and he easily made all the dishes that the chef had just made again. The more the chef looked at it, the more frightened he became, this feeling of almost perfection, he had only experienced it in one person, you must know that the person was a three-Michelin-starred chef in France, and the person in front of him looked similar in age to him, and the level of cooking had reached that level?
After the last dish was done, Narumi Qinglong sighed in his heart, just now, he received a system prompt, how could he not have imagined that his first skill to break through the intermediate level would actually be cooking, this is really a detective system?
After all the dishes were brought to the table, Narumi Kiyotaka motioned for everyone to taste them.
"It's delicious, it's so delicious!" Xiaolan has always been very confident in her cooking skills, even when she tasted the chef's food before, she was confident that she would not lose much, but at this moment, she suddenly felt that the things she had made before were simply not worthy of being called dishes!
"Oh my God, it's so delicious! Is this really made by people? "The family conditions of the garden are superior, from childhood to adulthood, what kind of food has not been eaten, even so, I have never had such a shocking feeling!
Conan tasted it, even though he was used to eating the food made by Narumi Kiyotaka, now he felt that it was obviously different, and there was only one thought left in his heart, ", this product has definitely not been seriously made before!" ”
Narumi Kiyotaka looked at the chef and made a gesture of please. The chef picked up the chopsticks and tasted them, and a familiar feeling spread through the taste buds, the same as he had done before, but different, just like those reviews, Narumi Kiyotaka not only did what he said, but went further. Especially the last few dishes, even if they are placed in any Michelin three-star restaurant, are eligible to be served.
Looking at Narumi Kiyotaka again, the chef was in awe, "May I ask which restaurant is the head chef of the restaurant?" ”
Narumi Qingtaka said helplessly: "I am a detective, and I usually only cook at my own home. ”
With a click, the chef's worldview for many years collapsed at this moment!
