Transmigration: To Be His Man-Chapter 160 Tai Ji Tang
The grouping was done by drawing lots, while Qin Mian was divided into the fourth group.
The first group consisted of Wu Dewang, Zheng Xiangui, Zhao Xiang and Zhang Shun.
In less than two minutes, four waiters came out with four plates of dishes, and placed them in front of Elder Liu, Elder Gu, and Elder Wen.
The four dishes were coconut bamboo, garlic and purple eggplant, golden jadeite and spinach omelette. As expected of the chefs of famous restaurants, the chefs that cooked these four dishes all had their own merits. With celery stalks and greens for the coconut tree, tomatoes for the beach, green cucumbers and round white balls in the middle of a porcelain plate, the garlica is bright in color and delicious in its fragrance, the gold jadeite looks like a cold dish, the pickled bamboo shoots are appetizing, and the green cilantro is among them; the spinach omelette is small and delicate, like an ornament.
After Elder Wen commented on their appearance, Elder Liu and Elder Gu both nodded in agreement.
They stood on top of Lei Tia's legs, saw it from afar, and commented honestly: "Not bad."
Yuan Yuan replied, "Daddy will be even stronger."
Filled with confidence in his father, Zhang Xuan nodded his head heavily, "Yes."
After tasting four dishes separately, Elder Liu evaluated, "The coconut bamboo fragrance and the golden silk jadeite taste the most harmonious. When it enters your mouth, it seems like you can imagine the two cooks cooking in one go. I'm sure these two have at least ten years of experience as chefs. However, the fire was a bit heavy, so he was unable to perfectly display the fresh taste of the purple eggplant. The spinach omelet looked quite successful, but I don't know if the chef was nervous, but some of the spinach in the omelet was still raw. Therefore, I believe that the coconut bamboo fragrance and the Golden Silk Jadeite have passed the test. "
After Old Gu and Elder Wen had tasted four dishes each, they joined in.
Wu Dewang and Zheng Xiangui revealed a look of excitement and looked at Qin Mian.
Qin Mian cupped his hands in congratulation to the two of them.
The complacency on the faces of Wu Dewang and Zheng Xiangui instantly disappeared.
The waiter then served the leftover dishes to the other chefs and spectators, allowing them to freely savor them.
The busybody asked Wu Dewang and Zheng Xiangui, and found out that the two of them had indeed been chef for more than ten years. They had even more respect for Elder Liu.
The second group of competitors quickly entered the kitchen.
The other waiter put away the bowl and chopsticks that Gu Lao San had used before and redistributed the three clean bowl and chopsticks. f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m
After the smooth comparison of the second group to the third group was over, it was time for the fourth group, which was Qin Mian's group.
No matter if it was Elder Wen and the others, or the participants and spectators, they were all paying more attention to Qin Mian. When Qin Mian entered the kitchen, they unconsciously watched his back and wondered what kind of vegetable he would cook.
Not long after, the four waiters came out with four plates of vegetables: a pumpkin orange cake, stir-fried triticeau, mashed potatoes, and a raincape cucumber.
The pumpkin orange pancakes were shaped like peeled oranges from pumpkin; the shredded triplex was made from carrot silk, kelp silk, and potato filament, respectively, in a round shape and in three separate colors; the mashed potatoes were made into round balls; and the cucumber slices in the raincoat were stacked in layers. These four dishes were all very particular about their appearance and were placed in a very beautiful ma
er.
Elder Wen and the other two did not appraise their appearance and directly tasted them.
When they tasted the stir-fried shredded meat, the three of them changed their expressions. They had a strange feeling that this dish must have been made by Qin Mian. It was clearly the most ordinary ingredient, yet it had a kind of indescribable "freshness" taste. Could it be that this was the peculiarity of the Shuangzhuan Restaurant ingredient? It was very obvious that the effects of the food that they normally ate at the Shuangzhuan Restaurant had been reduced.
Elder Gu quickly came to a conclusion, "Stir-fried Sansi and pumpkin orange cake pass."
Elder Liu and Elder Wen did not object.
Qin Mian and the pumpkin orange cake chef stood up, bowed towards the three people of Elder Liu and sat down.
Elder Gu then said, "If the chefs of the Mud Dew Ball and the cucumber in the raincoat have any objections, they can also try stir-fried triplex and pumpkin pie."
The chef of the Mud Ball and the cook of the cucumber with the raincoat were very confident in his cooking skills, so he naturally walked over unwillingly.
The waiter handed them two clean bowls and chopsticks.
The other contestants looked at the two cooks nervously.
After the two of them had a taste of stir-fried shredded pork. After a short pause, they went back to their own dishes and said with some unwillingness, "Stir-Fried shredded rice is indeed not bad."
Zheng Xiangui and Wu Dewang had also tasted the stir-fried shredded meat and felt a little more sense of crisis in their hearts. However, the two of them had conserved their strength and were still full of confidence when it came to defeating Qin Mian.
It was almost noon, and the match was suspended.
After lunch, the competition continued after resting for an hour. After all, if everyone's stomach was full, even if they were to eat the Jadewater Jadeite Wine, they wouldn't find it so delicious.
When the sky was about to turn dark, the top five contestants in the vegetarian competition were finally decided, Qin Mian, Wu Dewang, Zheng Xiangui, Zhang Shun and Jin Changan. The next day, they would have another match to decide their ranking.
The audience enjoyed a feast of sight and taste, and when they left the Shuangzhuan Restaurant, they were still passionately discussing the various dishes they had witnessed today. They all made a decision that they would definitely come again tomorrow to spectate the competition.
On the second day, even more people crowded in front of the Shuangzhuan Restaurant s, wanting to enter the Shuangzhuan Restaurant s competition. There was no lack of people pretending to join in on the fun, but in reality, they wanted to get a snack bar from a first-rate heaven's cake shop. If everyone gave out a snack bar, he would suffer a huge loss.
All of the participants gloated as they wanted to see the liveliness of Shuangzhuan Restaurant. Who knew that it wouldn't take long to bring in four baskets of nectars from Leisurely Dwelling House ?? ?? This person's Shuangzhuan Restaurant had already predicted the situation today.
Shuangzhuan Restaurant sent each person who failed to enter the stage a peach, until the end. No one could find anything wrong with Shuangzhuan Restaurant.
In the morning, the competition began.
Adding on the small kitchen, each of the five chefs had their own spot.
In less than three minutes, five dishes were brought out by the waiter.
The audience craned their necks to see which cook had made the dish.
The reason he didn't let the chef carry his own dishes was to avoid the preconceptions of the judges and the audience. If the waiter served the dishes, the judges and the audience would be unable to match the dishes cooked by the chef with the ones cooked by him.
The five dishes were: a pot of crushed tofu, a jade full of jade, a tai chi soup, a vegetable jelly and a vegetable biscuit.
The casserole was yellow with tofu sauce, and its appearance was neat and tidy. There were bright red peppers and green onions on the top, and the rich color and fragrance of it were very appetizing; the green jade was actually lotus root balls and cowpeas, fa
ed out on fan-shaped plates; the taiji soup was very special, the whole bowl was actually two colors, milky-white on the left and green on the right, distinct and delicate and fragrant; the vegetable jelly was transparent on the surface, with thin carrots and tiny leaves, like natural jade.
Everyone suddenly understood. This was probably the true power of the chefs.
Inside the main hall, there was almost no sound at all, everyone was anxiously waiting for Elder Liu and the other two's comments.
This was his exclusive secret recipe, he thought that he was better than a pot of bean curd, jade filled hall and vegetable cake, but he wasn't confident that he could win against Qin Mian's Tai Chi Soup. Things like soup were hard to shape. Even the layman knew that it wasn't easy to separate two different colors of soup. The seasonings of the Qin Mian Family were originally stronger than others, and now, in terms of appearance and techniques, it was a little stronger as well.
Zheng Xiangui felt that his vegetarian biscuit was better than the jadeite dumplings, herbaceous vegetables, and crushed tofu. However, it was still slightly inferior to the tai chi soup.
Nie Heng guessed that the most unique looking Tai Chi Tang was made by Qin Mian, and smiled at him, "It seems like even we diamond members are held back by your Shuangzhuan Restaurant."
Lei Tia said indifferently: "With the introduction of the new dish, Shuangzhuan Restaurant will not forget to inform the diamond members." The meaning behind his words was that the Tai Chi Tang had yet to be released.
Nie Heng was speechless. Staring at the Tai Chi Tang, he couldn't help but want to taste it in place of the three judges.
Elder Liu, Elder Gu and Elder Wen first examined the five dishes and then nodded their heads in unison. Then, they picked up the bowls and chopsticks and began to taste each of the dishes separately.
Everyone stared at the three people's expressions, they noticed that Elder Liu and the other two had the longest gazes on the four rooms of Tai Chi Tang, and understood that Tai Chi Tang was going to be first place.
After Elder Wen tasted the tai chi soup, he couldn't help but scoop another spoonful. Tai Chi Tang was the only dish that had been judged to have tasted two mouthfuls.
Sure enough, Old Gu and the other two old men discussed quietly for a moment before a
ouncing the results, "Tai Chi Tang, number one. What dishes freeze? Number two? Pot drop? Tofu? Number four? Cuiyu full hall? Number five?"
Elder Wen immediately brought the Tai Chi Tang in front of him and raised his spoon. Elder Liu quickly took it and handed it to the waiter.
"I can't drink anymore. I have to continue judging the meat dishes later."
If he were to be full, it would definitely affect his evaluation of the other dishes later on.
With a regretful expression on his face, Elder Wen looked at Qin Mian and said, "Boss Qin, after the competition, this old man will be staying at the Shuangzhuan Restaurant for a few more days."
Qin Mian cupped his hands and said: "I am honored."
Old Gu said, "Everyone, let's rest for the time it takes an incense stick to burn before we compete in meat cooking."
The waiter served five dishes to the other cooks and the audience.
Yuan Yuan and his entire group waved at Qin Mian, who walked over, bent down, and kissed each of them.
Lei Tia pulled him to sit beside her.
The family of four gathered together and whispered to each other. Yuan Yuan rolled around in the arms of his father and father, letting out clear laughter from time to time.
The warm scene caused many people to look on with envy. The people around the Flowing Water Town had long ago given up on using the phrase "Qin Mian and Lei Tia are both men", and there was no one who did not feel envious of their family and businesses.
Wu Dewang and Zheng Xiangui sat in a corner, the fake smiles on their faces were disgusting, but their eyes were filled with haze.
"Brother Zheng, if Qin Mian were to enter the top five in the meat dishes competition, it would be absolutely impossible for us to obtain thirteen incense sticks and eighteen fresh flowers." Wu Dewang explained the two's current predicament.
"Yeah." Zheng Xiangui was a little unspirited, "Although I do not want to admit it, Qin Mian does have the strength. Unless he does not participate in the competition, neither you nor I will be able to stop him from wi
ing. "
Wu Dewang secretly made an obscure gesture with his hand under the table, and lowered his voice, "How about ??"
Zheng Xiangui immediately shook his head, and nodded at Lei Tia, "Did you see Qin Mian's man? The eyes were like blades of ice. In the past, he had held back many of his colleagues who harbored ideas on Leisurely Dwelling House. I dare say, as long as you and I attacked Qin Mian a moment ago, in the next moment, he would make us wish we were dead. I don't want to risk my life. "
Wu Dewang scolded him as cowardly as a mouse.
Zheng Xiangui took a sip of tea to refresh his spirit, "I can no longer count on those two prescriptions. Whether second, third, fourth or fifth, I can at least get back our boss's six hundred silver taels."
Wu Dewang was still a little unwilling, his voice was sinister and fierce, "I don't believe that he can really enter the top five! "Let's wait and see!"
Lei Tia raised his eyes, his indifferent gaze faintly sweeping across Wu Dewang and Zheng Xiangui. When he returned to Qin Mian, he was already calm and gentle as he handed over a cup of tea to Qin Mian.
"Wife, drink some water."
