Chapter 140, Qualification Issues

After seeing Shao Wen's armband clearly, Yu Heng didn't speak anymore, but frowned and stared at Shao Wen.Before leaving for Jinling, Yu Heng had done his homework on the characteristics of the dishes of the four time-honored restaurants in Jinling and the ability of the people who handle the spoons.After a series of preparations, both he himself and other colleagues of Chaofan Catering agreed that Li Peng of the Canal Hotel was the most threatening person.Except for Li Peng, there is no rival worthy of attention for the time-honored Jinling brand or the inheritor of Jinling cuisine.

So Lao Shao suddenly appeared, and he was also a national super chef, which completely disrupted Yu Heng and Xiao Ran's plans.

"Hey, hey, I don't care what the relationship is between you, and I don't care if this guy was invited by you temporarily. But I have to clarify one thing, our Super Catering challenge is Jinling time-honored brand and Jinling cuisine, this guy Is he from Jinling's time-honored brand? Can he cook Jinling cuisine? Both of these two conditions are indispensable." Now a national super chef suddenly appeared, and even Xiao Ran was worried that the whole plan would fail.So Xiao Ran began to use the rules to set up thresholds for Hu Wenjun, trying to prevent Hu Wenjun from pulling a Canal Hotel that was on the verge of survival.

"He really isn't from our Canal Hotel, could he be from Shuangguifang, Chunguifang or Tinning Hotel?"

"Are you stupid? If he belongs to those three companies, then he should have stood up long ago when this extraordinary restaurant challenged him." Someone around whispered about Shao Wen's identity.

"Although I am not from Chunguifang, Shuangguifang, Tianning Hotel or Canal Hotel, our Shao family is indeed a time-honored brand in Jinling." This is probably the first time Shao Wen has disclosed his identity.

"Are you kidding me? Everyone knows that there are four time-honored catering companies in Jinling. Since you are not a member of these four catering companies, how dare you claim to be the inheritor of time-honored Jinling cuisine?" One?" Yu Heng couldn't believe what Shao Wen said.

"Hehe, history is full of chance and misleading. It is said that Zhang Fei is a black-faced man, but the real history is a white-faced handsome man. It is also said that Shaolin Temple sent out thirteen stick monks to rescue King Qin and help Li Shimin defeat the king of Qin. Wang Shichong took Luoyang. But the real history is just that the monks helped the Tang army prepare the logistics. This is all passed down by us, but the real situation is not like this." Hu Wenjun walked to the center and said eloquently.

"Are you talking so much nonsense that you are going to talk about the Bible at the table? When we leave, you can actually talk slowly here. Anyway, after dinner time, there will be a lot of people listening to stories, and you will not be short of listeners by then." Yu Heng interrupted Hu Wenjun and said, as a cook, he has no interest in history.

"Chef Yu, don't worry, let's go back to the catering issue of our Jinling time-honored brand. In fact, besides Chunguifang, Shuangguifang, Tianning Restaurant, and Canal Hotel, we also have a fifth time-honored restaurant in Jinling. It’s the Lanling Restaurant that went far away!”

"There is a fifth time-honored restaurant in Jinling? Which one is Lanling Restaurant? I haven't heard of it before."

"Since there is a fifth time-honored brand, why have we never heard of it in Jinling?" Hu Wenjun's remarks made everyone present, whether it was the Canal Hotel or Chaofan Catering, dubious and astonished.

"Hehe, because of the historical relationship, the Zhao family moved out of Jinling because of disagreement with the other four families, and went to other places. Over time, even we Jinling people have forgotten about this family. But the historical truth will always surface. The Qian family in Shuangguifang is good at dim sum and pasta, the Sun family in Chunguifang is good at desserts, the Wu family in Tianning restaurant is good at soup, the Li family in Canal Hotel is good at hot dishes, and the Zhao family in Lanling restaurant is good at Jinling pork head. This kind of cold dishes, Zhao Qiansun, Li Wu, and the five families can make a banquet together." At this moment, Hu Wenjun turned into a history lecturer, and took the trouble to share the story told by Shao Wen to the audience everyone.

"Hmph, the cold dish of Jinling pork head meat has been lost for a long time, you mean that the cook you hired is not only the so-called fifth time-honored Jinling restaurant, but also able to cook this long-lost cold dish? All of you here are judges who have studied Jinling cuisine." Xiao Ran interrupted Hu Wenjun at this time.In his view, this is a good opportunity to expose Hu Wenjun's "trick".

"Young man, do you mean that the master you invited can cook Jinling pork head, a cold dish that has been lost for a long time?" Some older members of the judges asked in astonishment.After all, this dish of Jinling pork head meat only exists in the records. Although some restaurants and shops now have signs claiming that they cook authentic Jinling pork head meat, the actual taste is quite different from that recorded in various classics.

"Old Shao, quickly get some for the judges."

After Shao Wen listened, he took out the Jinling Hotel's signature cold dish pork head from his luggage.Several judges took out their chopsticks for tasting.There was no result, and several judges couldn't help frowning and clamped another piece of the entrance.

"Everyone, how are you? It should be better than most of the shops that claim to be authentic..."

"Jinling pork head meat is soft, waxy, tender, fat, fresh, and fragrant. This master's pork head meat is really good. Could it be that this master's pork head meat is really authentic Jinling pork head meat?" No After Xiao Ran finished speaking, one of the judges took the lead in expressing his opinion.

"Yes, all the standards are met. This is the most standard pork head meat I have ever eaten." Another judge also agreed, and the following judges all nodded in satisfaction.

"In the end, Jinling pork head meat is a famous dish that has been lost for a long time. Even if the taste of the one you found is close to the taste recorded in the book, I can say that it is only close or similar. Is it authentic Jinling pork head? The meat is still unknown." Seeing that the judges had a good evaluation of the pork head meat brought by Shao Wen, Xiao Ran immediately changed his mind to deny the pork head meat brought by Shao Wen.

"Hehe, if you want to calculate it this way, then our old Shao cooks the lost Jinling cold dishes all over the place, and you can say that it is just like it or judge whether it is authentic or not. Because the age is too long, the taste of some lost dishes It is impossible to verify it, and even the highly respected judges here cannot establish a standard. Why don’t you come up with a standard, Mr. Xiao, how can we prove that Lao Shao is also the successor of Jinling’s time-honored brand.”

There are a lot of unsubstantiated or unscrupulous things with a full screen mouth, and there will be no results in such arguing, so the ball is directly directed to Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran walked slowly to the center, took the brocade box from the big man behind him and opened it, and four fan-shaped jade pendants with unique characters were neatly arranged side by side on the brocade inside the box.Xiao Ran showed and introduced: "We all know that Chunguifang, Shuangguifang, Tianning Hotel, and Canal Hotel in Jinling are called Jinling's time-honored brands because they have all been honored. En was awarded the unique jade pendant by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, so if you want to prove that you are a time-honored brand in Jinling or the successor of Jinling cuisine, you must have the unique jade pendant as proof, otherwise..."

"Are you talking about this kind of jade pendant?" Without waiting for Xiao Ran to finish speaking, Hu Wenjun took out the unique jade pendant of the Shao family and showed it to the public.
