The strongest gourmet food system

Chapter 595 Chapter 127

After seeing Hua Zemu, Zheng Ke immediately confirmed the other people in the same group.Fortunately, there are no other famous players.Katagiri Hiroshi, Takasugi Hisuji and Akakubo Momo were assigned to Group A.

Generally speaking, the strengths of the two sides are relatively average, at least so far, this is how it feels to Zheng Ke.

"The members of the two groups, please follow the staff, enter their respective competition venues, and register the ingredients they need at the entrance of the venue. The competition will officially start in half an hour." Masatomi Nitta said this After saying a few words, he bowed slightly, and then chose to retreat to the wall. Two staff members led two groups and walked towards the back of the villa.

When listening to Hua Zemu's introduction yesterday, Zheng Ke had a hunch that this villa would be very big.But because Mujiuzhienguo was drunk last night, he didn't have a full view of the villa, but he had a chance today.

Zheng Ke followed the staff, walked through the corridor, came to the hall connecting various entertainment rooms, then walked out through the sliding door on one side, bypassed a swimming pool, and came to a relatively tall house.

Like everyone else, Zheng Ke wrote down the ingredients he needed on the workbook of the staff at the workbench at the door, and then followed the others into the room.

"You want to use crabs?" Hanazawa suddenly lowered his voice.

"How do you know?" Zheng Ke glanced warily at Hua Zemu behind him.

"Hee hee, I accidentally saw it just now." Hua Zemu blinked at Zheng Ke, and Zheng Ke rolled his eyes depressedly.

The competition venue should have been renovated. It was not used as a competition venue at first, but looked a bit like a library. However, after the renovation, it became more gorgeous. Apart from the lack of auditorium, there are almost no other shortcomings.Moreover, the area of ​​the venue is also very large, even if there are six operating desks, it does not feel crowded.

A dozen reporters and players from other countries boarded the corridor, looking down at the stadium below.Every move of each player is clearly displayed in their field of vision.

The six contestants each found a console, put their kitchen knives on it, and waited quietly for the game to start.During this period of time, the staff also brought up the ingredients needed by the six contestants one by one.

"I don't know who the judges of this competition are?" A reporter standing in the corridor asked curiously.

"Since it's a national competition, the judges shouldn't be ordinary people, right?"

"They may be the most famous gourmets in Japan. Their tongues are said to be particularly sensitive."

"It's unlikely... Although those gourmets have excellent taste, but a competition of this level requires expert judges to be convincing."

The reporters whispered about the candidates for the referee, and everyone analyzed it in a decent way, until someone shouted 'the judges are here', these people stopped the discussion and looked towards the door.

Walking in the front was a 60-year-old Japanese man, wearing a kimono, with gray temples, a dignified expression, not angry but majestic, wearing a dark kimono, appearing in everyone's sight.

"It's Satoshi Kawamura, the head chef of the three-star restaurant 'Yagakuen'."

"Why did the organizer invite this old man over?"

"Wait, look at the person behind Mr. Kawamura, it seems to be the chef of the three-star restaurant 'Gremy', Johannes Decker."

A 40-year-old Frenchman with blonde hair and blue eyes, wearing a wine-red suit, followed Kawamura Satoshi closely.

"The last one... seems to be the most famous gourmet in Tokyo, Ayumi Akimoto, who is said to be able to distinguish 10 different kinds of sashimi within [-] minutes by simply relying on taste."

The last person who came in was a 30-year-old woman with short ear-length hair, sharp eyes, and a serious look on her face. She seemed to be a very stern person.

These three people were sitting in the judges' seats, but to the slight surprise of others, the person sitting in the judges' table was actually Ayumi Akimoto.

You know, whether it is qualifications, culinary skills, or even understanding of cooking, Akimoto is weaker than the other two.It seems that the other two chefs should not be resident judges.

Akimoto glanced at the time, and there were three minutes until ten o'clock, so he picked up the microphone.

"The topic of this competition, you should all know, is appetizers. Everyone has a different understanding of appetizers, and I only have one requirement, the food must be delicious. The duration of this competition is three hours. If you finish it ahead of time, we will serve it up, and we will rate it immediately after tasting. Is there anyone who hasn’t got the ingredients yet?”

All six players shook their heads.

"Okay, the game starts now!" Qiu Benbu glanced at his watch, it was exactly ten o'clock.

The six contestants immediately opened the knife box, took out the kitchen knives they needed, and then took out the ingredients on the trolley to start cooking.

Zheng Ke took out the pork belly from the ingredients trolley, picked up a knife, and chopped towards the pork belly on the cutting board.

The kitchen knife landed on the chopping board and made a violent impact, moving most people's attention to Zheng Ke.

"Appetizers are used to increase appetite. Using pork belly, will it be too greasy?"

"Perhaps he thinks delicious food is more suitable for this topic?"

"However, if a master fights, any flaws will be infinitely magnified. I think doing so will be very risky."

"No, I really trust him." A reporter from Kanagawa Prefecture said confidently.

"Why?" The others looked puzzled.

"Because he is a player who qualified from Kanagawa, I have seen his cooking with my own eyes. I can assure you that his cooking can not only be described as delicious," the reporter said.

"Is he so powerful?" Another reporter from Osaka felt incredible.

Hearing these reporters' discussions, Yuji Iwai, who had been silent all this time, finally couldn't help but speak: "I'm different from you, I have eaten his dishes, and every dish is very exquisite. Therefore, he uses pork belly, which is also very delicious. There must be a reason for him, you just have to watch."

"You are..." The reporter in Osaka looked at Yuji Iwai who was talking, with a puzzled expression on his face.

"I'm Yuji Iwai, a reporter from Gourmet magazine. I'm really curious, you don't interview the ten masters of Yuanyue, do you think that other people's cooking skills are much better than the ten masters of Yuanyue?" Yuji Iwai looked at the other reporters suspiciously.

"We did an exclusive interview with Ms. Kikuchi!"

"Yeah, such an important game, how could we not pay attention to the favorites to win the championship."

The little fat man smiled honestly, "But do you know? Among the top 12 this time, there are a total of five people who have been or are currently serving as the Ten Elites of Yuanyue, which is the largest number ever."

Other reporters, even players from abroad, were also energized.

There are only six places to advance to the next round, but there are five Yuanyue Ten Elites—they don't want all of them to enter the second round, do they?

　Thanks to Akito Kuroda, Pachyderm, XuZiH, and One Mars for their monthly tickets.
