It's so addictive that you can't stop eating it.
Because of the introduction of this sour sauce, he noticed that sales of roast duck seemed to have increased in the past few days.
Perhaps it was because of the sour sauce that everyone ate more.
Both of them were seasoned eaters, so when they saw the bowl of broth that Lu Rong brought over, they immediately understood its purpose.
Li Shangui picked up a piece of roast duck with his chopsticks and dipped it in the sour sauce in the bowl.
Slowly put it into your mouth.
The flavor of the roast duck immediately blends with the sour sauce, creating a unique taste.
It seems to taste better and more flavorful the more you chew it.
"It's delicious. It seems even better with this sour sauce added."
Li Shangui felt as if he had discovered a new world.
The roasted duck leg had already exceeded my expectations, but the addition of a little bit of sour sauce elevated the flavor to another level.
That's really amazing.
Wu Zhengchuan was the most surprised.
Because Li Shangui is a gourmet and is quite familiar with food, while Wu Zhengchuan himself is a chef.
Therefore, their ways of thinking about problems are quite different.
From the moment Wu Zhengchuan tasted the roast duck, he wondered how it was made.
To think they could make it taste like that! Could I do it myself?
In fact, although he was reluctant to admit it, roast duck was not his forte.
If he were to do it, he felt that he had a 90% chance of not being able to recreate the exquisite flavor that Lu Rong had achieved.
Although I'm very unwilling, the facts are the facts.
Lu Rong is indeed much better than him in this area.
Thinking back to how he once wanted to take Lu Rong as his apprentice, it's kind of funny now. Judging from Lu Rong's appearance, his skill level seems to be getting higher and higher. If this continues, he'll probably surpass him without any problem.
Within minutes, the two of them had devoured the entire large bowl of roast duck.
Because they were quite old, they were full after eating a whole roast duck.
Although I really wanted to eat it, my stomach just wouldn't cooperate.
"Sigh, if I were 20 years younger, I would eat at least three of your roast ducks," Li Shangui said with a chuckle.
“Sure, as long as you can eat, I can provide it.” Lu Rong was generous and made a promise on the spot.
Having eaten and drunk their fill, the group immediately got down to business.
Wu Zhengchuan coughed, feeling a little embarrassed, but he couldn't help asking.
"Lu Rong, actually we have something else to discuss today," Wu Zhengchuan said slowly, taking a deep breath.
Lu Rong nodded: "Please speak freely, gentlemen."
Just as Wu Zhengchuan was about to speak, Li Shangui interrupted, "It's like this, the National Culinary Competition is about to begin, you must know that, right? It has now been confirmed that the National Culinary Competition will be held at Kyoto University."
"We all think you are a rising star in the catering industry. It would be a great pity if you didn't participate in this food competition."
"I see," Lu Rong immediately understood their meaning.
To put it simply, it was my cooking skills that caught their attention. After all, they are all important figures in the culinary world and are very passionate about food.
After discovering their talent in the culinary world, these two big shots couldn't sit still and were determined to enter the competition themselves.
Lu Rong could understand their feelings.
"Lu Rong, it may be impolite for us two old men to say this, but we sincerely want you to participate in the competition."
"Don't worry, as long as you agree to participate, we'll agree to whatever conditions you set. We'll do anything we can to help you," Wu Zhengchuan assured him.
It seems they genuinely want Lu Rong to participate in the competition.
It's important to understand that qualifying for the National Culinary Competition isn't something you can just get casually; you don't have that qualification without the approval of culinary industry heavyweights.
To participate in this culinary competition, countless chefs went to great lengths to curry favor with various big names, just to get a chance to register.
Some chefs have even resorted to selling their bodies to secure a spot in competitions, a practice that has been reported in the news many times before.
After all, once you make a name for yourself in a competition, the rest of your life will be much easier.
It's even possible to soar to great heights and change one's destiny.
If others knew that Lu Rong had been begged to enroll by two powerful figures, they would be furious.
Lu Rong did not immediately accept the invitations from the two bigwigs.
He hesitated for a moment and thought about it carefully.
Actually, he was quite interested in the National Culinary Competition, since basically all the best chefs in the country would be there.
As a chef, I naturally want to compete with formidable opponents and see just how much my skills differ from theirs.
In the past, he might have worried about handling business matters, but after this period of time, he can now relax and let go.
Whether it's a canteen, a milk tea shop, a bakery, or a night market stall, appropriate personnel have been assigned to manage them.
Even if I'm not there, there won't be any major problems.
In other words, he had already become a behind-the-scenes boss.
If he weren't worried about becoming unfamiliar with cooking over time, he could earn hundreds of thousands of yuan every day without even entering the kitchen.
Another positive aspect is that the national culinary competition was unexpectedly held at Kyoto University.
