Chapter 118 Impossible Mission
Seeing this dish, Huang, Yi, and Dong nodded slightly. Huailiang was a little disappointed. Zhou Dong didn't say a word about this dish, and Shen Gongdao didn't mention Zhou Dong either. It can be seen that this dish has something to do with him.
It has nothing to do with the biggest rival in your heart.
"Xiao Shen, you are a smart person..."
After all, Huang Mingju is the chairman of the Chudu Culinary Association and has a close relationship with Lu Luxin. He often flirts with Jiuzhou Dingshi. If he has the opportunity, he will still support the Jiuzhou Dingshi platform: "Haha, this is a serious Confucius cuisine.
It has historical origins, so it is not a problem to be included in the palace cuisine.
The best thing is that it is neither Jinan cuisine nor Jiaodong cuisine, so it can save you a lot of embarrassment? Lao Lu, you are an expert in Shandong cuisine, let me comment on it?"
"There is indeed some thought."
Lu Zhiwei picked up a piece of pork belly with lotus seeds embedded in it, put it into his mouth and chewed it gently, nodded slightly and said: "The pork belly and lotus seeds are embedded closely, which shows that you used a 'fire escape' technique when the temperature was high. Wait until it is taken out of the pot and plated."
, which naturally expands with heat and contracts with cold, giving you this tight feeling at the entrance.
This firmness also improves the texture of the meat and lotus seeds, making this dish more delicious.
Also, when you steam the meat in the pot, you should put bamboo leaves in it, right? Although the flavor is not obvious under the suppression of lotus seeds and rock sugar, the fragrance of the bamboo leaves is almost indistinguishable from the meat flavor, and most people may not be able to taste it.
, but it still cannot be hidden from real gourmets.”
Of course, whether to put bamboo leaves or not cannot be hidden from a diligent senior like Lu Zhiwei; but how many bamboo leaves to put and what kind of bamboo leaves they are, that is, each has its own secrets, and even Lu Zhiwei cannot fully know it, so
It is still true that Lu Zhiwei taught Zhou Dong his "secret skills".
Several old men, including Huailiang, all tasted this dish. They exchanged glances and nodded secretly.
Judging from Shen Gongdao's level, this dish should be his peak work, or he may have prepared it carefully for a long time.
Lu Zhiwei put down his chopsticks and took a deep look at Shen Gongdao: "You are from the Jinan Clan, and you are considered a member of Wang Haibin. I am from the Jiaodong Clan, and Jilaidu is not in harmony with your Jinan Clan.
But judging from this dish alone, you have successfully upgraded a 'flattery dish' to a 'gentleman dish', with such ingenuity that you already have the demeanor of a master."
Shen Gongdao bowed slightly: "I don't dare to take it, Mr. Lu."
"Don't worry, I haven't finished speaking yet..."
Lu Zhiwei shook his head and said: "Your ingenuity is your advantage, but it is also your biggest disadvantage!
The first is the choice of dishes. Your specialty is Jinan cuisine, but because of me, you deliberately chose a Confucius dish? Haha, fortunately you did not choose Jiaodong cuisine for my liking, otherwise unless you do something magical
As for your cooking skills, I will give you a failing grade here!
You deliberately didn't choose Jinan cuisine. Although Lao Huang praised you for being smart, I'm very unhappy here. Are you worried that I, Lu Zhiwei, will have a sectarian view and use the public at the expense of private interests? In your eyes, I, Lu Zhiwei, am
Such character!”
Shen Gongdao's expression changed drastically: "Mr. Lu, I really don't mean this."
Huang Mingju couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but interjected: "Lao Lu, are you going a little too far?
The evaluation of star-rated hotels pays attention to the principle of "order one, get one free". It is the person's right to decide which dish he or she wants to submit for review.
How come you are questioning your character when you come here? I wonder if you have delusions of being persecuted?"
"Anyway, it is indeed his right to choose what dish to eat, and I will not deliberately lower the score of this dish for this reason.
But I still have to ask clearly, how much energy and time did you spend to actually find out that my grandson’s wife is pregnant with her third child?”
Lu Zhiwei chuckled and said: "That's right, I'm an old-school person. Although I know that I shouldn't favor boys over girls, I still inevitably think about passing on the family. I guess you guys are similar to me, right?"
Let’s take a look at what is the name of this dish? Bring it to court! Chef Shen, your dish is very good. It is a perfect match between the two gentlemen of Qing and Qing. It coincides with the Tao of Heaven. Unfortunately, you are still focused on flattering me. Right? Or, are you mocking me because the Lu family has no offspring? "
This little Shen is so clever that he is mistaken for his cleverness!
Huang Mingju frowned secretly.
Who is Lao Lu? The most important thing in life is face. Do you think that this dish can bring good luck in having more children and grandchildren, and he will be happy?
Confused!
In Lao Lu's view, at least half of this was a mockery of him that the Lu family had no heirs. It would be strange if he could be happy!
What should I do? Once Lao Lu’s temper gets worse, no one can persuade him.
Zhou Dong secretly saw Shen Gongdao sweating on his forehead, and knew that he was the only one who could say a few words for him at this time: "Mr. Lu, just let me say a few words.
Now the key to Jiuzhou Dingshi's rating lies in Lu Kitchen. As the chef of Lu Kitchen, Mr. Shen has a heavy responsibility. Of course, he will be nervous and worried.
Of course he chose this dish with the intention of pleasing you, Mr. Lu, but it would be enough to flatter you, and Teacher Shen would never risk offending you by deliberately mocking you.
This is an exam. If a candidate wants to do well in the exam, he or she may guess the mind of the teacher who asked the question. But when have you ever seen a candidate deliberately offend the invigilator?
Even though I am young, I still understand this logic."
Lu Zhiwei liked Zhou Dong as much as he liked him. After hearing this, he calmed down his anger and nodded slightly: "Well, I originally wanted to give you a failing grade, but for Xiao Zhou's sake, I'll give you a six." very.
As for the final average score, whether it will be a good review, a neutral review, or a negative review, it all depends on your luck and how well you cook the next designated dish."
The judges' scoring rule is to score two dishes in two rounds, and then calculate the average score.
A rating below seventy points is considered a negative rating, and the hotel will be downgraded directly. Even if the other seven major cuisines are all positive, they will still be downgraded.
A rating of 70 to 90 is considered a neutral rating, and a score of 90 or above is considered a safe rating.
If Jiuzhou Dingshi accumulates three neutral reviews, its star will be downgraded. Ordinary star-rated hotels do not have so many cuisines, so they have to add one more dish, and the three dishes will be scored separately. If there is one negative review, the star will be downgraded, and if there are two neutral reviews, the star will be downgraded. Also falls stars.
Jiuzhou Dingshi has eight major cuisines, which is actually very disadvantageous. As long as the eight cuisines accumulate three neutral ratings, their stars will be reduced. But who makes you the only five-star in Chudu? It’s just strict requirements!
Now Jiuzhou Dingshi has accumulated two neutral reviews, so the score it can get for this ‘bringing to court’ is very critical.
If the score is too low, it is very likely that you will be assigned to do the most demanding skill, the 'fried double crispy', and the chance of getting a fair or even negative review will be greatly increased.
Shen Gongdao was so nervous that his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
In the end, the average score for ‘Bringing a Belt to Court’ was eighty!
When Shen Gongdao saw this score, his face turned pale.
This means that he must make the second designated dish to the extreme, so that every judge will give a perfect score of 100 points without any objection, so as to bring the final average score to 90 points! Otherwise, Jiuzhou Dingshi
Will be demoted because of him!
Lu Zhiwei glanced at him and said: "The designated dish is 'Double Crispy', I believe you have guessed it, right?"
Shen Gongdao suddenly felt that his legs felt weak and he almost fell to the ground.
That is the most difficult fried double crispy dish in Shandong cuisine, and you want all five authoritative experts to give full marks?
Chapter completed!
