I am Qinxing No.1

Chapter 141
Little h lazily lay aside with his pups, not understanding why these humans would get nervous over a plate of dishes.

In its view, this dish, which was prettier than Miss Cheng Yuqi's, was not as good as a meaty bone.

Stunning comes from first acquaintance, and shock comes from familiarity.

Among the stars present, Mr. Huang and Mr. Yu, the two old gourmets, were the most shocked.

After the raised disc cover is lifted, what is displayed in front of everyone is a poem or a painting.

The ham has long lost its proper appearance. Under Zhou Dong's skillful hands, this ham has become an arch bridge with a small arc.

What kind of sculpture is this?It is so detailed that people can see the statue of Leo at the end of the bridge, the indirect and consistent railings, and the people walking on the bridge include children who are still in their childhood, trembling old women, and people with umbrellas and bags on their backs. Xianggong, there is a lady who quietly opened the curtain in the sedan chair to peek at the pretty Xianggong.

It is said that success lies in the details, and the details of this dish are simply outrageous.

Cheng Yuqi even saw the "bluestone slabs" laid on the bridge. The grooves between the irregular stone slabs were of different depths. Some of them were estimated to have been stepped on too many times, and there were signs of depressions on the surface.
There are 24 bridge holes under the bridge, and the white moonlight passes through them. Is this the moonlight in the sky?of course not.After looking at it carefully, everyone realized that it was just 24 tofu carved into a circle. It was just that the bridge was so real that it caused visual deception.

The bridge alone is not enough, there is a slightly rippling water surface under the bridge, and now I think back and understand why Zhou Dong gently shook the dishes twice before putting the dishes on the table, just to make the water surface turbulent?

On the 'water surface', there are still pieces of lotus leaves that are slightly yellow in the blue, and a white lotus has suddenly protruded, and its petals have been opened. Cheng Yuqi looked curiously, and suddenly covered her small mouth in shock. There are really lotus stamens in the petals, but it's a pity that there are no lotus seeds yet.

On the "shore", there are still faint green hills rolling up and down, but they are made of green and fresh spinach; this dish has people with things, water and "light". White lotus!
Is this still a dish?
The cameraman of the program group is also well-informed, and the hand holding the camera still couldn't help shaking slightly. Fortunately, the camera has an anti-shake function, which does not hinder the high-definition shooting of close-up shots!
"This is the real 24 bridge moon night, right?"

Teacher Huang and Teacher Yu with bright eyes looked at each other, and they both said at the same time: "And it's a real Huaxia arrangement!"

Chinese cuisine can basically be divided into three categories.

The first category: home-cooked dishes, which is basically what Mr. Huang cooks in the show. In some small restaurants, these dishes are mostly provided, and even some big restaurants must prepare this kind of dishes, such as potato shreds, tomato Scrambled eggs, seaweed egg soup or something.

The second category: authentic cuisine, the best of the eight major cuisines and small cuisines from all over the world, and a feast for the table.Compared with home-cooked dishes, they pay more attention to the combination of hot and cold, the substitution of meat and vegetables, and the dishes are generally more exquisite. They not only pay attention to the taste, but also start to pay attention to the external appearance.Shen Gongdao's "Tape Shangchao" actually has both color and fragrance, which is essentially different from ordinary home-cooked dishes.

Some private restaurants may even improve on the basis of the cuisine, and enhance the two characters of appearance and color. Such dishes are satisfying to eat, and the appreciation process before eating is also very pleasing to the eye.

But even if it is the authentic essence of the eight major cuisines, it cannot be called a real presentation!

The third category is Chinese dishes: the emphasis is on dishes that are out of order, in color, and in taste.If it is a long table arrangement, it is even more necessary to have scenery at every step, mountains and forests, allusions in the scenery, and characters in the allusions!
Perhaps half of the food in such a grand banquet is not for eating, but for viewing.

Zhou Dong’s 24 Bridge Moonlight Night is different from those made by some small restaurants that blindly vassalize Jinxue. They can dig a few holes in the ham and throw tofu balls in it. Anyone who has been a chef for several years can do it, but that is called 24 Bridges. Is it a moonlit night?Don't be kidding, okay?

Zhou Dong's dish really corresponds to the artistic conception in the original poem of "the green mountains are hidden and the water is far away, and the grass in the south of the Yangtze River is not withered in autumn".

On that bridge there was a young man with an honest face, and walking beside him was a pretty little beggar, wasn't it Guo Daxia and Qiao Huang Rong?

"Is this Huaxia's arrangement?"

Gu Yacheng was really shocked. The Shangzhou Group started out as a catering company. Of course, he is not unfamiliar with Chinese food, but because he received Western education and lived abroad in his youth, he has never paid much attention to Chinese food.

In fact, he doesn't care much about Kyushu Dingshi in his heart. According to his idea, Shangzhou Group should be a boutique western restaurant, such as making Michelin-starred boutique restaurants bloom everywhere; I also have high hopes for Chinese cuisine, Kyushu Dingshi may now be called a continental restaurant.

Now seeing this picturesque 24th bridge on a moonlit night with his own eyes, Gu Yacheng also has to admit that the so-called three-star Michelin platters he has seen before are all shit.

However, Gu Yacheng was very unwilling when he thought that what he had eaten before was all 'shit'. He thought for a while and said: "This 24 bridge moon night is beautiful, but the ingredients used in this dish can be eaten ?"

Teacher Huang and Teacher Yu looked at Zhou Dong worriedly when they heard his question.

I have to admit that Huaxia's arrangement has indeed entered a strange circle in recent years.

In order to present a good-looking plate, it has gradually broken away from the category of food.You can't imagine that there are inedible strange stones, green plants and even glazed ornaments on the dining table, and you can't even imagine that in order to create the effect of waterfalls and springs, the dining table also has its own water circulation system.
Although this kind of practice has existed in ancient times, even if Song Huizong put a small birthday outline on the dining table, he would still have very strict requirements on the dishes, unlike the current arrangement, which requires sky-high prices, and what is displayed is a fairyland. Eating immediately returned to the 'world'.

Metaphysics has become the deepest pain in China's plate setting, and it is also criticized by many gourmets; fortunately, Papa Ma's banquet was a group of foreigners and laymen. Nothing good to say about him.

"All the ingredients used in this dish are edible and delicious."

Zhou Dong made a gesture of invitation: "Please taste."

"Okay!"

Cheng Yuqi paused her chopsticks excitedly, then frowned and froze. Teacher Yu and the others also smiled wryly.

With such a picturesque and beautiful picture scroll, how can people bear to put down their chopsticks, and where should they put down their chopsticks?
"The dishes should be in harmony with nature, which is the top grade. So, let's start from here, let's take the moonlight first."

Zhou Dong signaled Cheng Yuqi to change the spoon, and asked her to connect the spoon to the bottom of a 'bridge hole', then lifted the chopsticks by himself, and tapped lightly on the 'bridge' above the bridge hole.
