Original God, starting from the sister against the brother

Chao Ke first pressed the spoon to the bottom of the oil pan, and then lifted it up suddenly.

The judges' eyes also followed Ke's spoon and witnessed the moment the lion emerged from the water.

"ah?!!"

"This...what an art!"

"God, please forgive my limited knowledge. I never imagined that there would be a dish that could reach such an artistic level!"

"Ahem, actually... I've never seen anything like this..."

The nine judges on the field, whether they were mortals or gods, were all refreshed by this [Awakening Lion Pastry].

[Awakening Lion Pastry] The bright color, the delicate carving, and even the hairs that stand up straight are simply beyond the reach of human beings.

Funina looked at Chao Ke's hand with complicated eyes.

"What a pair of dexterous hands these are..."

Chao Ke handed the first portion of [Lion Awakening Pastry] to Funina and asked Fu Fu to taste it first.

As for the other judges, just line up slowly.

But they were not annoyed. Instead, they were glad that they could see the birth of [Xingshi Su] a few more times.

Especially the editor-in-chief of "Chef" newspaper, his eyes were shining with brilliance, and he wanted to put his face in front of the oil pan to witness the birth of "Xingshi Su" from all angles.

After a while, a very charming [Xingshi Su] was placed on the plates of all the judges.

However, until Chao Ke had finished making all the [Awakening Lion Pastry], no one took the initiative to taste the food.

It’s just because the judges were reluctant to destroy this work of art just because of their momentary desire.

Chao Ke in the kitchen secretly felt it was a pity.

Except for the [Lion-awakening Pastry] given to Sha Fu Fu, which reached the standard of [Ultimate Lion-awakening Pastry], the other eight [Lion-awakening Pastries] were a little lacking and failed to reach the standard of [Ultimate Grade].

Chao Ke washed his hands and looked at the judges who were reluctant to eat.

"Gentlemen, the best time to enjoy the [Awakening Lion Cake] is limited, please enjoy it as soon as possible."

“Also, for artworks, the best destination for them may be a museum.”

“But for a food, no matter how superb its artistic quality is, its best destination is only one…”

"That is, being eaten."

"Everyone, eat it while it's hot. I don't advocate waste here."

The judges looked at each other in bewilderment. Even though they were persuaded by Chao Ke, no one wanted to be the first person to destroy a work of art.

Finally, it was Funina who spoke first and took a bite of the [Lion Waking Pastry].

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

The crispness of this [Awakening Lion Pastry] is so perfect that it is scary.

As Funina's teeth continued to dig deeper, she finally tasted the filling of the [Awakening Lion Pastry].

“This taste...”

“So refreshing!”

Fu Fu opened her eyes wide and sighed.

"Even the greasy feeling I had while eating was mostly alleviated."

As a senior pastry lover, although Funina doesn't know how to make pastries, she has a lot of knowledge about pastries from various countries.

The filling in [Awakening Lion Pastry] is not the lotus paste that often appears in Liyue’s traditional pastries, but mung bean paste...?

Not only that, the mung bean paste is even mixed with some crushed mint leaves, which makes it refreshing and less greasy when eaten.

Funina looked at Chao Ke. This idea was quite clever.

But, how did Chao Ke manage to complete so many things in such a short preparation time?

As the other judges tasted the "Awakening Lion Pastry", they naturally discovered Chao Ke's intentions.

In my heart, my evaluation of Chao Ke improved slightly.

Wait until the last judge left Chao Ke’s [Jia Ziwei Restaurant (Huihe District Branch)].

The event host also rang the bell, indicating that the judges' tasting session of the finals had officially ended and the organizers were counting the final results.

Chao Ke walked out of his simple restaurant and went to the seat of [Debo Hotel] to sit and chat with the chef.

Under Chao Ke's surprised gaze, the chef reached under his body, rummaged around for a while, and finally pulled out a long...semi-finished product.

"Sure, bro. I didn't expect you still have stock."

The chef said with a hearty smile.

"I made too many when I was making them. I made two in total, but the judges only ate one."

"That's great. Let's split the remaining piece of land between us two brothers."

He smiled at Ke and said, "That's great. This time, I'll trouble you to cook for me."

"In the future, if you need my help, please let me know."

The chef smiled and said that it was easy to talk to smart people.

In just a few words, he expressed his goodwill, and Chao Ke also accepted the friendship.

After a while, the chef finished making the steak roll.

The two of them ate while waiting for the final evaluation results to be announced.

As for Ruger, he stood alone in his restaurant, wiping the counter silently.

He seemed to be indifferent to the result, but in fact he looked up every few seconds to see if the result was out.

Perhaps because of the presence of Funina, there was one less shady arrangement in the selection process.

Therefore, the selection results were released more quickly than the previous two times.

With the announcement of the final results, the first food selection event hosted by the Fontaine Catering Industry Alliance was officially declared over.

The results of the list were also captured crazily by major media outlets.

【Final List】

[No. 1, Jiaziwei Restaurant (Huihe District Branch), Lion Pastry]

[Second place, Ruger Restaurant, Tempura]

【Third place, Debo Hotel, deep-fried beef roll】

----------

Seeing that the list results were in line with his expectations, Chao Ke breathed a sigh of relief.

At least it beat Inazuma's dish [Tempura] and didn't embarrass Liyue's dish [Lion Awakening Pastry].

As for Ruger, he stared intently at the final list.

"I finally lost..."

Luger clenched his fists, then loosened them weakly.

In fact, I lost more than just this one battle.

From the first match onwards, I lost every match to him...

Luger walked towards Chao Ke with heavy steps.

And Chao Ke looked at the newcomer with some surprise.

"Hey, I haven't even come to settle the score with you yet, but you came here on your own."

Luger didn't say anything, just stared at Chao Ke.

After a long while, Ruger said something.

"You are a very good cook, and your methods are extremely sophisticated."

"I can barely accept losing to an opponent like you."

"But wait! In the near future, I will challenge you to a duel of destiny again!"

Chao Ke looked at Ruger in surprise. This guy is obviously an adult, but why does he still talk like a child?

But what Ruger said was true. It would probably take a few days for the two to meet again.

However, the duel initiated at that time was probably not a cooking competition like today.

However, the final results of the evaluation have been made public.

But the evaluation process has not yet been completed.

What followed was a series of trivial things, including receiving trophies, taking photos, accepting interviews from reporters and the media, and advertising his own store.

In short, when Chao Ke finished dealing with all this and returned to Fontaine on the patrol boat, it was already night.

Chao Ke walked into the Buffati Mansion without recognizing any relatives, and went straight to his sister's office.

Pushing open the office door, Chao Ke placed the championship gold cup in front of his sister.

"sister!"

"I won the championship. Change into pajamas, take a shower and wait for me at night!"
