Chapter 56: The Cooking Contest Begins
The city-level cooking competition is about to start after three months, which affects not only the hearts of all the Royal Spirit Chefs in Dongxia City, but even ordinary people who are not Royal Spirit Chefs are also concerned about this event.
Because of the special nature of the spirit eater, the people of this world have great attention to everything related to the spirit kitchen.
Celebrities, Internet celebrities and other professions with high popularity, Yuling Chef has a natural advantage.
Watching a variety of events related to the Imperial Spirit Kitchen is also an important entertainment for ordinary people in the Spirit Eating World, and various industries related to it are very developed.
Tens of thousands of tickets to watch the event were sold out in just an hour after they were released, and those who failed to grab the tickets sighed one by one, so they could only choose to watch the live broadcast of the event.
The theme of the first round of scoring competitions that has been announced is also highly discussed.
Many royal chefs have come forward to prove that the theme of vegetarian cuisine has little room to play and is more difficult.
This makes people who follow the event more and more want to know how these 26 players will complete the challenge of the grading competition.
In the heated discussion and attention of the whole city, two days flew by.
On the day of the Dongxia City Cooking Competition, Qin Lang got up early in the morning, changed into a brand-new chef's uniform, and walked out of the house with Danbao.
"Xiao Qin is leaving!"
"Xiao Qin, you have to come on! I'll be watching you fight on TV! ”
“…”
The neighbors he met on the road took the initiative to greet him with sincere blessings on their faces.
"I will." Having gradually adapted to these acquaintances in his memory, Qin Lang showed a friendly smile, "Don't worry, everyone, I will definitely do my best to get a good ranking!" ”
After saying goodbye to them, Qin Lang and Danbao went straight to the competition venue, the Dongxia Arena, which was specially built for the event by the Dongxia Imperial Spirit Chef Association.
Not only cooking events, but also Dongxia City training events, which are also held every three months, will also be held here.
The two are staggered and do not affect each other.
The Dongxia Arena is an open-air building with a cylindrical shape as a whole.
It is yellow all over, and the five big characters of "Dongxia Arena" are hung on the high place.
Walking outside the arena, Qin Lang's eyes were a little more nervous and expectant.
In his previous life, he was the youngest special chef in Yanhuang, and he was even fortunate to participate in the preparation of the state banquet.
But now, he's just a lonely new Imperial Chef.
His opponent is no longer the inheritor of the eight major cuisines, the experienced celebrity chef of the state banquet, and the head chef of the three-star tire, but the master of the royal chef who has mastered the cuisine that is different from the previous life, but also shines brightly.
This is a new beginning!
Qin Lang took a deep breath.
"Danbao, let's go in."
"Goo-toot!"
…
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Dongxia Arena!"
In the center of the arena, the host's passionate voice echoed over the entire Dongxia Arena through amplification equipment, attracting cheers from tens of thousands of spectators in a packed audience.
"The Dongxia City Cooking Competition, which is held every three months, is about to begin."
"In every competition, there will be enough strong Royal Chefs in this arena to prove themselves with their cooking skills and love for cooking."
"I believe that this edition will be no exception."
"Now let's give our warmest applause to the eleven first-class food recommenders in Dongxia City!"
With the host's big hand wave, amid thunderous applause, the eleven people sitting on one side of the seat got up and waved to the surrounding audience.
Zhou Qing, Song Hui and Fu Xing, who gave Qin Lang the badge of food recommenders, were among them, and the remaining eight food recommenders also had their own characteristics.
"Eleven referees will serve as judges for the subsequent knockout and ranking rounds, and the judges for the scoring rounds are..."
"Thirty senior judges of the Dongxia City Royal Spirit Chef Association!"
"Let's welcome them with the same applause!"
As the host's hand moved to the seat on the other side, the thirty judges sitting there also got up and greeted the audience with applause.
"And today, the 30 judges will be judged by our 26 contestants!"
"Let's cheer them on with the warmest applause and cheers!"
The eyes of all the spectators were focused on the twenty-six people standing in a row in the very center of the venue.
The names of the different players were wrapped in cheers and applause, and they continued to echo in the Dongxia Arena.
Standing among the contestants, Qin Lang's face couldn't help but tense a little.
Although he had participated in a cooking competition in his previous life, he had never seen such a big battle.
Looking at the competitive standard kitchen with an area of 100 square meters that had been completed in advance, each of which was the same as that used by the food bucket, Qin Lang felt that his heart was beating extremely fast.
It was a feeling of excitement.
Vaguely, Qin Lang heard this cheer, wrapped in his name.
Mixed with the earth-shattering cheers, the voice seemed to be exceptionally clear.
He looked in a certain direction, and in the nearest stand, he saw several familiar figures.
It was Qi Xiaoyu and the three of them who got the VIP tickets.
Nodding at the three people who were waving their hands at him, Qin Lang's gaze turned to the middle-aged man with a hard face and a sturdy body who was speaking at the moment.
Li Yuantu, vice president of the Dongxia Yuling Chef Association, is also the only second-level food recommender in Dongxia City.
Vice President Lee is not a man who likes to speak at length, and his speech was short.
After Vice President Li Yuantu's speech, in the warm applause of tens of thousands of spectators, all the judges swore to judge each contestant's dishes with a fair and just attitude, and the municipal cooking competition officially kicked off.
"After the pre-competition draw, the final determination of the project is a restricted food theme, and this time the food theme is vegetarian!" The host spoke loudly, "Twenty-six contestants have submitted the ingredients needed for the competition in advance, and they have been checked by the association to meet the requirements of the theme!" ”
"These ingredients have been sent to the standard kitchen with the name tag of the corresponding player!"
"The grading competition will be officially held in five minutes, and the cooking time is limited to three hours."
"Please enter the corresponding competitive standard kitchen, and you will have a chance to check the ingredients before the game."
"When the bell rings for the start of the game, the walls of the competitive standard kitchen will automatically turn opaque."
"Looking forward to your performance!"
Amid the cheers, Qin Lang and Danbao walked into the competitive standard kitchen with his name tag hanging on it.
The transparent kitchen façade allows the outside world to see him clearly.
Standing in front of the table, his eyes swept over each of the ingredients, accessories and seasonings he had prepared one by one, and after confirming that it was correct, Qin Lang slowly closed his eyes.
The key points of the technique of vegetarian braised pork were reviewed over and over again in his mind.
Five minutes later.
As the bell rang for the start of the game, the kitchen façade turned opaque.
Qin Lang opened his eyes.
