Chapter 2008: Even though I lost in knife skills, but ...

Translator: 549690339

The stuffing of the traditional grass-wrapped bun was made with pork, with bamboo shoots, cake cubes, soy sauce, and sesame oil. It was known as the three fresh fillings.

“Ka Cha!”

When he took a bite, the first thing he sucked into his mouth was the boiling hot soup, which was a little scalding. Then, he tasted the rich texture of the pork, and with the fresh and tender bamboo shoots and the cake with a hint of sweetness, the taste was not bad.

“If the steaming time was shorter by a minute, it would suit my taste better.” Yuan Zhou thought in the heart.

Without stopping, Yuan Zhou ate all four steamed buns into his stomach in accordance with the dish.

They had steamed buns for lunch and stir-fried vegetables for dinner. This time, Yuan Zhou didn’t check any restaurants in advance. After all, he was here to participate in the competition. Therefore, he let the horse rein itself, and went to eat wherever he went. It could be considered casual.

Yuan Zhou also ate quite a lot while shopping. He often ate some “snacks” alone at night.

For example, Calabash chicken, red braised pork, sweet and sour pork ribs, Dongpo pig knuckle, and so on.

The reason why Yuan Zhou didn’t gain weight at all was that he did morning exercises every day and also went to the gym regularly. Miss Feng was the most obvious one.

The next day, the silver spoon appraisal conference began.

The silver spoon was of great significance to the Lu cuisine Association, especially to the chefs of Lu cuisine. Therefore, the Association attached great importance to the silver spoon conference.

The originally empty main entrance of the Association was now hung with a huge banner. It had a red background and white words, which looked very traditional.

[Opening of the 10th silver spoon appraisal conference]

......

The font was very big. At least, Yuan Zhou had seen it at a glance when he got up to exercise in the morning. It was very eye-catching.

The conference would start at 10:00 in the morning, which was also a lucky time. Yuan Zhou didn’t sleep in. Instead, he got up at his usual pace and did some exercise in the gym provided by the hotel before starting the day’s journey.

After breakfast, Yuan Zhou went through the dishes that he planned to cook for the next few days in his mind again and found no problem. Then, he looked at the time and decided to go there earlier.

The four participants were staying in the same hotel, but Yuan Zhou had never met them before.

After entering the Lu cuisine Association, they were led directly to the competition hall by the welcoming staff.

There were already quite a few people in the hall. Of course, the most eye-catching things were the four cooking stoves on the high platform and the variety of ingredients.

“Little Yuan, over here. Come here.” Zhou Shijie’s eyes were really sharp. He saw Yuan Zhou the moment he stepped into the restaurant.

When Yuan Zhou saw Zhou Shijie waving his hand, he walked towards him.

Today, Yuan Zhou was also wearing the Han Chinese traditional clothing. Of course, the narrow sleeves were suitable for activities. The silver-gray material had a little dark pattern on it. With a careful look, one would know that it was a lotus pattern. With Yuan Zhou’s tall and straight figure, he looked quite handsome. The last half of the sentence was just a self-reflection.

“Hello, uncle Zhou.” When Yuan Zhou walked closer, he found quite a few people were surrounding Zhou Shijie.

They were all around Zhou Shijie’s age. Some of them were even older. Their status was basically the same.

“Hello, head chef Wang and head chef Yue,” Yuan Zhou recognized that two of them were the two Lu cuisine chefs who had interacted with each other before.

“Hahaha, head chef Yuan, long time no see. I didn’t expect to see you here.” Head chef Wang was in line with people’s impression of a fat and white chef.

“Head chef Yuan, long time no see.” Head chef Yue nodded his head at Yuan Zhou.

“This is head chef Zhuang and head chef Mai. They are your recommenders, little Yuan.” Zhou Shijie pointed at the remaining two people and said.

“Hello, head chef Zhuang and head chef Mai. Thank you for your help this time.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.

Although they could find the person without the help of the two of them, they definitely needed to thank the person for taking the initiative to help. This was a matter of courtesy.

“No need to thank me, no need to thank me. It’s just a problem with the process. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have had the chance to recommend you.” The head chef said with a smile.

He quite admired Yuan Zhou’s culinary skills. He had been cooking Lu cuisines for his entire life and in the end, he was defeated by a youngster. He couldn’t help but be convinced.

“Old man Zhuang is right. It’s nothing. Head chef Yuan, you’re too kind.” Said head chef Mai with a smile. The wrinkles on his face had all dispersed, making him look like a chrysanthemum.

If head chef Mai’s apprentice were here to see his smiling master, he would probably burst into tears. Head chef Mai was usually very strict and always had a stern face. There was basically no time when he was satisfied.

After greeting each other, the group of chefs started chatting. Of course, when the chefs gathered together, they mostly talked about cooking or ingredients.

The several chefs all put Yuan Zhou on the same level as them. Therefore, after Yuan Zhou joined them, they started to talk about the previous topic.

With Yuan Zhou’s current cooking knowledge, he was absolutely able to deal with such a small scene with ease. Very soon, everyone started to chat in full swing.

It was also a coincidence that there were only five judges this time. Besides Zhou Shijie, there were also head chefs Wang, Yue, Zhuang and mai who had just greeted Yuan Zhou.

Although everyone knew Yuan Zhou’s culinary skills very well and unanimously agreed that the silver spoon definitely belonged to Yuan Zhou, a system was a system. They still had to go through the formalities.

“The head chefs are busy. I’m going to prepare.” Yuan Zhou stopped talking when he found it was getting late.

“It’s indeed late. Little Yuan, you should go. ” Zhou Shijie subconsciously looked at his watch. It was already 50. It was indeed not early.

“Then, head chef Yuan, we will discuss this question after the meal.” Head chef Zhuang said casually.

“Yes, yes.” Head chef Wang also nodded in agreement.

“Okay. I’ve also gained a lot from communicating with the head chefs.” Yuan Zhou said.

After greeting the few head chefs, he walked towards the stage on the other side.

It was different from when Yuan Zhou came in just now. There were already many people on the table. No one was like Yuan Zhou who washed, cut, stir-fried, and placed the dishes all by himself.

The other head chefs all brought their assistant chefs, some with one, some with two. Other than the stove at the very end, which was empty, the other places were occupied.

Yuan Zhou didn’t really mind which kitchen range had land.

“You are head chef Yuan Zhou?” A tall and very burly man looked at Yuan Zhou and said.

The man was about 40 years old, which was the prime of his life. He was wearing a chef’s suit with black stripes and a chef’s hat, which made him even taller. At that moment, he was looking at Yuan Zhou with a serious expression.

“Yes. Hello, head chef Gao.” Yuan Zhou had seen the photos of the other three head chefs before. Therefore, he recognized them at first glance.

“I admit defeat to head chef Yuan’s cutting skills, but as for the pan-tossing skill ... I, Gao, will not admit defeat so easily.” Gao Fei said with a serious expression.

In fact, these words were already much weaker.

However, Gao Fei really thought so too. He felt that a person’s energy was limited, so how could he be good at everything?

“Hello, head chef Yuan. My master really can’t find the time this time, so he asked me to apologize to you. He said that we’ll meet again next time.” A man who was also in his forties walked up.

Breaking the solemn atmosphere that Gao Fei had created just now, Yuan Zhou immediately recognized that this was imperial chef Mo’s disciple, Bai subo.
