Shokugeki: Start with an izakaya, making everyone cry

Boil the duck eggs that have been incubated for 18 days and peel them.

Drizzle with fresh lemon juice and sprinkle with fried onions, shredded ginger, raw salt, coriander and other condiments to enhance the taste and flavor.

After tasting the snake soup.

Cai Bo Chaoyang made it in just 10 minutes:

Head bent!

The so-called bent-head eggs are actually eggs whose incubation has been stopped when the embryo is hatching.

In some cases, you can still see the downy chicks, with all their internal organs intact, and the blood vessels on the eggshell and skin are clearly visible.

Who said: “You can’t find fault with eggs”?

In this dish of kutuo egg, you can eat the bones.

When you pick up the egg and take a look at it, you can see its immature head, bloody claws, underdeveloped internal organs, distinct facial features, and even feathers.

seriously.

In terms of the degree of horror and darkness.

The snake-headed eggs made by Chaoyang are in no way inferior to the snake soup made by Longdan using poisonous snakes!

Although it looks a bit hard to eat, it has a unique flavor when added with spices, yellow yam peel, radish slices, pickled ginger shreds, mint, and a little lemon juice!

……

Taste.

Very unique.

The egg part tastes a bit soft and sticky.

When you bite it, you can feel a dense texture similar to pudding.

If you look closely, you can indeed clearly see the outline of the chicks that have hatched, and these parts are even more tender and juicy, blending with the taste of the egg liquid to form a wonderful taste experience!

When you open your mouth and take a bite, the first thing that hits you is a light aroma of egg.

Next, there is a subtle taste between raw and cooked, which makes the taste of the egg more intense.

The lemon juice adds a sour and refreshing taste.

taste!

Very balanced and harmonious!

"How can this be?"

Kobayashi Gentian tasted it himself, and his bright eyes were filled with disbelief.

Whether a dish is strong in taste depends on whether people can accept it.

The food that you think is strong-tasting may be commonplace in the eyes of others, and the food that they think is strong-tasting may be considered surprising to you!

After all.

The eating habits and patterns in each place are different.

In the past, people's food intake came more from the surrounding environment.

Kobayashi Gendan, who is good at using rare ingredients, is certainly not scared by a mere bent-head egg. What is beyond her expectation is that only an egg that has not been fully hatched, combined with some spices and ingredients, can completely surpass her snake soup dish!

"Late night cook?"

"Is this your strength?"

Finally, the defeated Kobayashi Ryudan stared deeply at Caibo Chaoyang and sighed!

……

Like a warm harbor.

Izakayas always attract tired pedestrians, people gathering with friends, and diners who love delicious food.

The seats in the dining area are carefully arranged, with comfortable cushions, exquisite tableware and furnishings, each of which reveals respect and care for diners. Diners sit around the table, tasting all kinds of delicacies and enjoying the pleasure brought by food and wine.

In front of the cooking table.

Zhang Fan is always busy and working in an orderly manner.

Every dish he cooks is delicious.

Whether it is exquisite sushi, delicious sashimi, or steaming barbecue and stews, it is mouth-watering.

"Shopkeeper."

"Have you heard about the recent incident of the late-night cook?"

Hojo Miyoko, who had drunk a little wine, stared at Zhang Fan with dazed eyes.

"Ok!"

"I know something."

Zhang Fan wiped the kitchen knife carefully and replied.

"I received a message from my father this morning saying that the restaurant in Yokohama Chinatown has been forced to close down due to the influence of late-night chefs!"

At this point, Midori couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Although the restaurant was a place with a strong patriarchal ideology, it cast a shadow on her childhood.

But no matter what, that place left her with many good memories!

now.

Such a crisis occurred in the restaurant.

She was far away in Totsuki Academy, but she was powerless to save it.

In fact, she knew very well that she did not have a broad mind, even if she succeeded one day in the future.

Even if she could gain a foothold in Totsuki and create a name for herself in the Japanese cuisine world, she would not be able to closely correlate the value of her career with the mainstream self-identified life values ​​like men do!

“Don’t blame yourself too much.”

"You don't have to take all the responsibility on yourself for some things."

"The number of restaurants, hotels, and so on that have closed down due to the late-night cooking incident is too numerous to count."

"And what I want to say is that none of these are enough to define the future of all chefs."

"in my eyes."

“For any chef, there are still endless possibilities.”

“So, you should work harder to create your own success.”

"I believe that one day, you will bring Yokohama Chinese Restaurant back to life and make it flourish!"

Zhang Fan, at this time, began to comfort himself.

"Ok!"

"I...I know."

Hojo Miyoko blinked and replied with emotion.

……

A glass of wine, clear and rich.

Leonora Nakiri, who had just arrived at the pub, looked calm!

Her sparkling eyes were always focused on the wine glass in her hand.

With slender fingers, she held the silver spoon with skillful gestures and stirred the ice in the cup quickly without making any sound.

Finally, she slowly threw a bright red cherry into the wine glass!

The yellowish light inadvertently sprinkled on the deep red cherry wine, like a gorgeous sunset reflected in the amber-like transparent liquid.

The color of cherry wine is deep and rich, as tempting as ripe cherry fruit, exuding a faint fruity and wine aroma, interweaving into an intoxicating fragrance.

The transparency of wine.

Cherry red.

All of these are a wonderful baptism for vision!

Then, she picked up the wine glass and shook it gently. The wine swayed in the glass like a dancing elf.

The tan nails matched the luxurious color in the liqueur glass, and then under Zhang Fan's gaze, she took a sip!

The aroma of fruit and wine interweaves and lingers in the mouth, bringing a unique taste experience. The wine is soft and smooth, with a slightly sweet and sour taste, as if you are in a cherry forest, enjoying the sweetness and freshness brought by the fruit.

This cup of cherry wine not only has a rich taste, but also contains profound cultural connotations. It represents romance and passion, and symbolizes beauty and happiness. While tasting cherry wine, it seems as if you are tasting the beauty and sweetness of life.

……

"Hmm~"

“This wine is so fragrant!”

“With the crispy and sweet cherries, it tastes sweet and refreshing!”

Finally, Leonora Nakiri came back to her senses.

She opened her eyes and stole a glance at Zhang Fan beside her. Seeing his calm and composed expression, she couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

"Zhang Fan, many restaurants have closed down recently, but your izakaya business is really doing better!"

Leonora couldn't help but exhale a breath of alcohol, blinked her eyes and smiled.

Zhang Fan here happened to have nothing to do, so he found a seat next to Leonora and sat down, intending to chat with her.

Then, he moved his nose slightly and smelled a faint fragrance in the air.

This fragrance is different from the jasmine scent on Nakiri Managi's body. Instead, it is a bit similar to the scent of roses!

Ah!

all said.

You can tell a person by his scent!

The body odor of different women is really different!

"How come you are suddenly free tonight and come to my izakaya?"

Zhang Fan asked.

"I'm lonely!"

"It's so lonely, no one talks to me, no one plays with me!"

"You know Alice has been busy preparing for the promotion exam recently. I'm the only one in the dormitory room in the entire Totsuki Academy. It's really boring!"

"That's why I came to your place tonight. I wanted to eat something and talk to you like this."

miss you

……

Followed by.

She looked at the wine in the glass, which was almost finished, so she quickly reached out to pick up the bottle next to her, ready to pour more wine into her glass!

"Let me do it."

That's when.

Zhang Fan, however, grabbed Leonora Nakiri's hand and snatched the bottle from her!

"what?"

"This... How can this be so embarrassing!"

Feeling the temperature and touch in her hands, Leonora Nakiri actually felt like she was electrocuted, and her heart was in a mess!

Finally, she looked at Zhang Fan.

To be honest, she likes Zhang Fan's personality, gentle and considerate!

Sometimes, his every move was always so elegant, which made Leonora Nakiri, who had rarely seen handsome young men in her life, feel her heart beat fast!

……

"Na!"

"Zhang Fan."

“They say that experts are lonely.”

"For someone like you who is almost unmatched in cooking skills, do you sometimes feel that you are empty in some aspects?"

"Especially since you are still condescending to stay in such a small restaurant and not going anywhere!"

eye.

Blinked.

Leonora Nakiri couldn't help but ask curiously.

There are really many things about Zhang Fan that are worth her questioning!

"Ok?"

"Why are you asking this question?"

Zhang Fan was stunned for a moment!

"Just curious!"

"How can you be curious about everything? Don't you know that when a woman starts to be curious about another man, it is the beginning of sin?"

Zhang Fan chuckled and said.

"what the hell!"

"I...I...I am a woman who has seen the world. How could I be fooled by a little brat like you?" Leonora Nakiri blushed when she heard what Zhang Fan said.

Subsequently.

She continued to drink a sip of wine and said unhappily.

"It's hard to tell!"

"That's how Nakiri Managi went through, so I'm afraid you will be like her!" Zhang Fan touched his nose and chuckled.

"what?"

"Smug!"

Nakiri Reiro Nora simply rolled her eyes at Zhang Fan!

but.

sometimes.

In her heart, she did have a little feeling! Oh, I don't know why I can't stay in Totsuki Academy and have to drink in Yunhai Restaurant early in the morning!

Is it possible?

Am I really interested in Zhang Fan?

At this moment, Leonora Nakiri, who was full of thoughts, started to have wild thoughts!

……

"in your opinion."

"Even Nakiri Masaki, who possesses the divine tongue, has to submit to me! So how many people in this world can catch up with me?"

"thus."

"In your eyes, I might be a lonely person, right?"

"But I don't feel lonely running this restaurant all by myself! On the contrary, I feel very comfortable being surrounded by people all the time!"

"It's only now that I realize that there's actually a different feeling to going out on your own!"

"At least, I feel very free! I can do whatever I want to do and not do what I don't want to do. I can live every day as I please!"

At this time.

Stop smiling.

Zhang Fan then turned and spoke seriously to Leonora Nakiri.

"Hey!"

"Right!"

"If you ask me, you are a heartless person who just wants to live your own life! Moreover, you obviously have such great cooking skills, but you just want to run this restaurant well!"

Nakiri Leonora.

Listening to Zhang Fan's words, I felt a little touched.

Think about yourself.

In the past, he served as the director of Nakiri's International Research Department!

Every day, I hide in the laboratory, working with a group of men who can do nothing but research, to study new technologies and new dishes!

Lonely?

To be honest, that kind of life made her feel too lonely!

If she didn't have her daughter Alice by her side, she would probably want to die!

Therefore, this is why when the commander-in-chief asked her to come back and intervene in the affairs of the autumn trials and outdoor internship courses, she immediately ran back to Totsuki Academy!

Just because.

She really wanted to escape from that place!

For restaurants!

What do customers care about? There are only three things:

Good environment!

good service!

Delicious food!

……

This environment may not need to be extremely noble and luxurious, but it must be clean and tidy. It would be best if it could match the theme of the restaurant and make people feel bright!

service.

Needless to say.

When diners come to a restaurant, their purpose is definitely to eat, not to please other people!

and.

to be frank.

No matter how good the environment and service of a restaurant are, if the food they serve is not very tasty, then there is no doubt that the restaurant will soon go bankrupt!

After all, the main problem of going to a restaurant is to satisfy your mouth.

Even though the environment may not be good, and even a bit of the smell of fireworks! However, the cheap and delicious food always makes diners unable to stop!

……

Any individual.

She always has times when she feels bored and lonely.

Although there are many ways to kill time nowadays, such as singing karaoke, going to bars, traveling, shopping, and watching movies...

however.

any method.

Nothing is as good as a cold glass of wine.

As it slowly goes down your stomach, it can quickly soothe that fragile heart!
