Time ticked by, and an hour and a half had passed since the match began. Dominated by the fragrance of Head Chef Wang’s special braised young chicken, the atmosphere of the entire venue became anxious. Even the judges couldn’t sit still.
The host continued to explain, and the topic basically revolved around Head Chef Wang’s braised young chicken. Occasionally, he would mention He Jing. After all, the charm of the braised young chicken was too captivating.
Head Chef Wang’s braised young chicken simmered gently in the pot. He took the opportunity to showcase his carving skills. He took a carrot and carved a unique old hen. He placed it on the plate and it looked vivid and lifelike. The host deliberately had the cameraman zoom in.
He Jing had already fried the chicken pieces for the fourth time. Although it wasn’t the same plate of chicken pieces, the cooking method didn’t seem different.
If it weren’t for the fact that they had repeatedly confirmed that she was the chef that the Zhou family had hired at a high price, the production team would have thought that she was here to have fun.
Just as everyone started to complain, doubting He Jing’s ability and complaining about why He Jing was so slow, He Jing’s chicken cutlet was finally fried.
She squeezed the sauce that she had specially made and pressed the completion bell. The host rushed up from the side of the stage almost impatiently and announced loudly, “It’s done! It’s done!”
There were also pure food enthusiasts in the audience who had specifically spent money to buy tickets to watch the game. When they heard this, their spirits were lifted and they complained,
“Finally done. This chef called He Jing is really slow.”
“She’s so young and her skills don’t seem great.”
“That’s right. I wonder how she managed to get in. Can’t we get a more skilled chef to do it?”
“Oh, how can a famous chef be hired for such a small-scale competition? This He Jing must have been bought with money to be gilded. After all, when she goes out to look for a job in the future, she will have the reputation of being the champion of a certain competition. It sounds good.”
“Sigh, the reputation of the culinary world has been ruined just like that.”
Almost no one thought that He Jing could win, whether it was in terms of age or cooking skills.
The owner of Prosperous Restaurant, Liu Fu, was sitting in the last row with
Mr. Zhou. Liu Fu smiled and said, “Mr. Zhou, it seems that I’ve won this match.
The girl you hired is beautiful, but her skills aren’t very good.”
Mr. Zhou also smiled. “Is that so?”
He glanced at He Jing, who remained calm in the middle of the arena. He faked flattery and said, “It seems that I’ll have to call you Boss Liu, Mr. Liu, from now on.”
Although Liu Fu said “just flattering”, he was extremely pleased in his heart.
So what if he used to work for Mr. Zhou? It didn’t matter. He had turned the tables now.
From now on, when it came to restaurants in A City, no one would think of Zhou’s Restaurant. It was now Prosperous Restaurant that dominated.
At this moment, the judges had already started the evaluation segment. The host couldn’t help but pick up a piece of the dish with his chopsticks when it was about to be served to the judges.
As he ate, he tried to smooth things over for himself, amusing the audience, but halfway through the joke, he suddenly stopped.
The host’s huge intoxicated face appeared on the LED screen. His expression of wanting to cry from the deliciousness didn’t seem fake at all. He chewed bit by bit as if he couldn’t bear to swallow it so quickly.
The audience below was getting restless. They knew that Head Chef Wang’s braised young chicken was so fragrant that it would definitely be delicious!
It wasn’t until the host finished a mouthful of braised young chicken that he wiped his tears. “Dear audience, after this match, you must go to Prosperous Restaurant to try this braised young chicken. This is the best braised young chicken I’ve ever eaten in my life, without a doubt..”
