"Wow, this dish number 68 is so delicious, especially the iced one, sour and sweet, it's so delicious!"
"No, the ones fresh out of the pot are the best. They're warm, and they warm my heart and my stomach!"
…
After the guests tasted various appetizers and compared them with each other, more and more people finally noticed No. 68.
Because the number of people at booth number 1 has grown from just a few at the beginning to a large group now, and even more and more, which is incredible.
Even later on, the food made by Yu Wuwei was not enough. The guests grabbed all the food but were still not satisfied. They expressed regret for not coming here earlier to eat a little bit.
They all originally thought that the young man Yu Wuwei was just here to make up the numbers and gain experience, but they didn't expect that the dishes he made in the first round were so delicious that they couldn't even eat them later on.
The dish No. 68 was sold out, so they had to continue tasting dishes from other booths. However, after trying the dish No. 68, they found it difficult to swallow the dishes from other booths!
In the end, I had no choice but to wait for the next game with a frown.
The guests were enjoying the food while the host continued to preside over the competition. Finally, it was the moment that all the chefs were most concerned about: the scores were announced.
The food from each booth was tasted and scored by 101 judges. After removing the highest and lowest scores, there were still 99 scores. The final average score was calculated as the result of this round of competition.
The host read out the scores from low to high, and the first 38 chefs were eliminated. Except for a few like Yu Wuwei, all the chefs present were very nervous.
"Number 67, highest score 10, lowest score 5, average score 7.35, 68th place, eliminated!"
"Number 54, highest score 10, lowest score 6, average score 7.37, 67th place, eliminated!"
…
As the host announced the scores one by one, more and more chefs felt frustrated.
Especially those three-star ones, almost all of them were named.
Although they were mentally prepared and knew that they could not beat those four-star and five-star winners, they were still sad to hear that they were eliminated.
In the first round, more than half of the chefs will be eliminated, leaving only thirty. Naturally, there are more than three-star chefs. Then many four-star chefs were also called out. The chefs who were called out were all frustrated and a little unwilling to accept it.
However, this is the common result of more than a hundred judges, and the order is random, so it is quite fair. They have nothing to say if they are not as skilled as others.
"Number 45, highest score 10, lowest score 7, average score 8.65, 31st place, eliminated!"
As the host called out the 31st number, the remaining chefs finally breathed a sigh of relief. They knew they had passed and had a chance to advance to the next round, where it was still unknown who would win.
Looking at the remaining people, all the five-stars stayed. To be the top star in a five-star hotel, his level is definitely not to be underestimated.
In addition to Yu Wuwei, there was actually another three-star chef selected, which made the eliminated four-star chefs feel embarrassed and a bit embarrassed.
Sure enough, as the host continued to read, he soon heard this three-star number:
"No. 60, highest score 10, lowest score 7, average score 8.67, 30th place, advances!"
I was 0.02 points lower than the 31st place, which was also due to luck.
However, even though he was only the last one, he attracted the attention of many guests. It was inevitable that a three-star player who was able to surpass many four-star players and advance to the next level would be popular.
At the end of the reading, a five-star rating finally appeared. It is worth mentioning that there were also two four-star ratings mixed in. Some of the backward five-star ratings were even higher, which naturally attracted the attention of the guests on the scene.
"Number 7, highest score 10, lowest score 6, average score 8.99, tenth place, advances!"
"Number 8, highest score 10, lowest score 7, average score 9.00, ninth place, advances!"
…
Chef Park looked a little unhappy. He was 0.01 points short of 9 points, and he was also 0.01 points behind the first place. He felt very unwilling.
Although 8.99 and 9 only differ by 0.01, one is more than eight points and the other is nine points, so they are different.
"Number 6, highest score 10, lowest score 7, average score 9.21 points, fourth place, advances!"
Speaking of which, Old Tan is quite capable, worthy of being the one who dares to challenge Liu Fengyang. However, Old Tan's face looks very unhappy. He hasn't heard of No. 1 yet, which means No. 1 is ahead of him.
Moreover, he was ranked fourth in this round, not even in the top three, which was very unacceptable to him.
"Number 2, highest score 10, lowest score 8, average score 9.29, third place, advances."
When it came to the top three, not only the chefs present but also the guests fell silent, wanting to know who would be the first in this round.
Although this is only the first round, being able to take a slight lead gives us a better chance of winning the championship.
Someone counted the two remaining ones and was surprised to find that in addition to the home five-star Century Star No. 1, there was also Chaoxianju No. 68 which didn’t even have a star!
This discovery is really surprising. Although Chaoxianju has become more famous because it was rated as a Michelin one-star restaurant, it is only one star. There are many restaurants in Linhang that can be rated as such, and some are even qualified for two stars.
It is quite amazing that Chaoxianju, a small restaurant that no one had ever heard of before, could stand out among so many top hotels in the city and occupy one of the top two.
And now it will be revealed who will be the first place. The first one to be called out will naturally be the second place, and the rest will be the third.
The host took a deep breath and announced loudly, "Next, second place. His highest score is still 10, his lowest is 8, and his average score is 9.31. He's... Number 1!"
As the host finally announced the winner, both the chefs and the audience were in an uproar. If second place went to number 1, wouldn't that mean first place went to number 68? Was it Chaoxianju, which I'd never even heard of before?
On No. 68's side, Yu Wuwei had already been confident and didn't think it was a big deal, but the others were excited.
Especially Liu Huizhen, who was previously despised and looked down upon by Fatty Park No. 7 and questioned by Old Tan No. 6, now she finally got her revenge!
You said we got in through the backdoor! You looked down on us! And you still insulted me by competing with us?
How about it now? Are you embarrassed?
Amidst the astonishment and excitement of the audience, the host read out loudly, "The final first place winner, with the highest score of 10, the lowest score of 10, and an average score of 10, is... Number 68!"
The guest chefs, who were originally in shock, were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped to the ground when they heard the host's final score announcement.
