Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"By the way, what about the little secretary? Didn't you apply for exemption from her repeated assessment?" Liu Maoxing asked.

"I mentioned it to her, but Fei Shazi insisted on completing all the assessments, lest anyone gossip."

"Huh? Isn't the restaurant over there?"

"Just follow me..."

"It looks so remote here, don't you want to take the opportunity to do something bad? I'm actually a very conservative person..." Liu Maoxing teased.

However, the direction from here is indeed a bit remote, and it is not the location of the self-service hall...

Erina gave him a blank look, and after a "queen hum", she ignored him.

Under the guidance of Erina, entering the seemingly remote VIP cafeteria, Liu Maoxing immediately understood that those students from the fitness club and rugby club outside must have booked discounted group tickets or something! The treatment is really bad!

Originally, Liu Maoxing thought that the "steak set meal" made by the first-year students of Yuanyue College was not bad for dinner, but compared with the real top-notch cafeteria here, it is simply at the level of grassroots bark.

Liu Maoxing had already guessed at this time that this place should be a dedicated VIP cafeteria. The area is much smaller than that of the buffet hall, with less than 50 tables. It can be said that the dining area is much smaller than the food storage area, and there is nothing wrong with it. guest.

Not only is there a plate of cold food buffet, but also dishes made on site, which can be ordered separately, and all kinds of high-end alcohol in the wine cabinet can also be taken.

"Wow! It looks good!" Liu Maoxing sighed after looking around.

Erina had no choice but to pretend not to know such shameful behavior!

After all, there were already "guests" in the VIP dining area at this time, and they were all familiar with them, so they were specially invited back. As the graduates who were mentors, at this time, except for Dojima Yinhe and Seki Shouping who was supervising the students, everyone else seemed to be very familiar with them. here it is...

Seeing two students coming in, many graduates looked over. Most of them recognized Erina, but they were relatively unfamiliar with Liu Maoxing.

There are also a small number of graduates who vaguely remember that during the daytime assessment, it seems that this person came to borrow ingredients with Erina.

"There are so many dishes, it seems that it is not easy to eat all of them in six days, no, five days!" Liu Maoxing looked like he wanted to eat them all.

While feeling helpless, Erina couldn't help but said: "Do you think that, as the VIP cafeteria of Yuanyue Hotel, the dishes here will be the same every day?"

"A-Is it different every day?" Liu Maoxing asked with a bright eye.

Erina didn't say anything more, after taking some pre-dinner desserts, she went straight to the innermost seat.

On the innermost dining table, the demon king of food and the head coach of Totsuki Academy, Nakiri Senzaemon, was there!

White hair and white beard, the same rose-red pupils as Erina, wrinkled face, and the scar on the right eye, it seems a bit calm and pretentious.

The grandfather and grandson did not know what they said, and then Erina called the waiter alone, ordered some dishes that needed to be prepared on the spot, and delivered them.

While Erina was waiting for the dishes to be served, suddenly...

bang...

Hearing the sound of plates being placed on the table next to her, Erina looked over with a frown, and was wondering why there were such unprofessional waiters in the VIP buffet hall of Yuanyue Resort Hotel, when she noticed the "meal" on the table out of the corner of her eye. "Plate" is filled with a variety of pre-divided dishes for self-service, which are not ordered by oneself at all, and this oversized "dinner plate" takes up half of the table!

When she turned around completely, she stood still on the spot: "You, you, what are you doing?"

It was actually Liu Maoxing who came over and placed the huge "dinner plate" next to Erina's seat!

You must know that Erina is not alone at the table now, and Nakiri Senzaemon, who is known as the "Gourmet Demon King", is also here at this time...

Even the graduates avoided the surrounding seats at this time, but Liu Maoxing sat down carelessly!

"Eh? Of course it's dinner...I don't know the seniors and sisters around me very well, so I'd better come and sit with you! After all, I'm a shy person...Commander, it's very important that you didn't say anything matters? Don’t bother me?” Liu Maoxing said.

Senzaemon also looked at Liu Maoxing in surprise, and then said: "It's okay, just do whatever you want."

"Then I'm not going to be polite! Sure enough, I have to have dinner with my classmates for the dormitory study or something! Hahaha..." Liu Maoxing said and picked up the knife and fork.

Erina couldn't help complaining: "Where are you shy, how can you show it?"

Many of the other graduates looked at this side with surprised eyes, and many of them were guessing who this kid was, but he sat with the "Gourmet Demon King" carelessly as soon as he came up, and he didn't seem to be from the Nakiri family. people?

And Liu Maoxing didn't seem to feel the gazes of the graduates and Erina around him at all, and started to try one by one!

There are almost a hundred kinds of self-service dishes in total. Liu Maoxing put half of them on a long plate like a guqin, each of which is the smallest portion, one piece or one bite...

Erina took a closer look, it wasn't a dinner plate at all!

It was a transport tray used by the back kitchen to carry and transport dishes, but Liu Maoxing asked for one.

When Liu Maoxing tasted each one, he seemed to be enjoying it, and then he tasted one after another!

A hundred kinds of dishes are obviously not many in a buffet, but they are absolutely high-quality goods. As a buffet restaurant serving VIP customers, there is not a single dish that can cope with it and make up the number.

In Liu Maoxing's taste, the worst is "advanced one-star", but more "advanced four-star, five-star" dishes!

There are more than a hundred kinds of "high-end" cuisines that I have never tried... Liu Maoxing felt that he was so happy to come to "stay and study". Although the assessment during the day was very tense, the "remuneration" at night really made Liu Maoxing addicted!

But Erina became more and more embarrassed... If it were any girl, sitting next to a buffet, she would have to eat all the dishes, and every time she ate one, she would have to "beautiful" to show her enjoyment Men with facial expressions will feel embarrassed now!

Especially when Liu Maoxing ate all the fifty kinds of dishes above, and actually removed one of the transport trays, and there was another one below, which contained the other half of the dishes, Erina almost collapsed up...

"Huh?" Erina suddenly let out a light snort, and looked at her grandfather Senzaemon in surprise.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but at the moment just now, Erina seemed to see Senzaemon with appreciative eyes... Appreciating a "greedy" foodie?

From Erina's point of view, Liu Maoxing's method is simply extremely low, because he tasted so many dishes in one go, the taste must affect each other, it's just a cow chewing peony!

On the other hand, these dishes for use are not considered top-notch. In Erina's view, they are garbage that should be thrown out directly!

However, Senzaemon obviously saw another side of Liu Maoxing. Although these dishes are definitely not good in front of the "God's Tongue", after tasting each dish, Liu Maoxing's expression does not seem to be fake, it is obviously true enjoying...

The fact is indeed the case, Liu Maoxing is of course enjoying it, and he is already about to be ecstatic!

It's not that Liu Maoxing has never eaten "special" cuisine, but the more than a hundred kinds of cuisine now have a variety of categories, which can provide him with rich accumulation!

On the one hand, it is the entry of the menu, and on the other hand, it is also the gradual improvement of one's "cooking skills"...

Most of these dishes are at the level of "advanced four-star and five-star".

Because just like the limit of simple meal cooking is "intermediate five-star", the simple meal that ordinary people can easily learn can only reach "intermediate five-star". When the comprehensive cooking skills are not high, you can upgrade a fixed dish, or a few two or three dishes, or even a few steps, to the level of "advanced five-star"!

This is also the goal pursued by practical cooks. Their talents or education limit their own cooking skills. They can only improve the limited fixed dishes to the level of "advanced" cooking, and sometimes even require Several people joined forces to produce "advanced" cuisine in an assembly line style.

This kind of cook can usually only be an assistant chef in a high-end restaurant, that is, to start with. The positions of "chef chef" and "chef" are not even considered.

Usually, if a "super chef" is willing to put in the effort, he can teach a few practical cooks.

But the core of the kitchen of a high-end restaurant must be the chefs who have reached the super level. They can not only freely change the dishes they are good at, but also develop new recipes, and can cook only "practice makes perfect". The "special cuisine" that can't be reached!

Yuanyue's goal is to cultivate these super cooks who can become the core, not those assistant cooks, so they will use a very high elimination rate to deny those cooks who do not have such potential...

Therefore, "advanced" cooking is actually not uncommon. With the guidance of super cooks, some cooks who take a practical route can mass-produce them.

And at this moment, the dishes that Erina had previously ordered on the spot had already been brought over by the waiter.

"Wait, do you also change the dishes you make on site every day?" Liu Maoxing asked.

"No, sir. The seventy-six kinds of dishes made on site are provided every day, but some adjustments are made from time to time." The waiter replied respectfully.

"Seventy-six dishes? Divide by five... Well, give me fifteen dishes today, all in the smallest portion! A small portion and some leftovers from cooking for others are also fine, thank you! "Liu Maoxing said.

Although this is a VIP cafeteria, the dishes ordered are all from the hands of some "chefs" who joined Yuanyue Resort after graduating from Yuanyue College. There are restrictions on ordering meals at ordinary times, but you can actually come here to eat People don't need to specifically remind this kind of thing, but Liu Maoxing obviously doesn't have this kind of consciousness.

But even though it was against the rules, the waiter tried not to show any weird expressions. After all, this guy was sitting with the commander-in-chief, how could he dare to offend him?

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment..."
