He didn't take it to heart and said with a smile: "I see, that's how it is. I was a bit rude."
"I won't interrupt your sparring session any longer. Chef Liu, it's your turn to show off your skills. Show Brother Xia your skills and let him see the level of our Yuanzun Hotel."
Chef Liu nodded, looked at Xia Tian and asked, "Brother Xia, according to the PK results, you've actually won with two wins out of three. I wonder if you're still interested in another sparring match with me?"
Xia Tian agreed without hesitation: "Of course, I came here this time just for Chef Liu's reputation. If I can't see your skills, then my trip would be in vain."
"You didn't even know his name before you came. You lie without blinking an eye!" Qiu Mengyun couldn't help but complain in her heart while listening to the polite words between Xia Tian and Liu Zhenxing.
"In that case, please come in!" Liu Zhenxing made a gesture of invitation, then put on an apron and began to prepare the ingredients.
Xia Tian didn't hesitate and skillfully picked up the chicken next to him and started to process it.
Seeing the two of them busying themselves, Mr. Zhang looked at the dishes placed aside and asked, "Is this the dish you made during the PK just now?"
Master Li nodded and said, "Yes! This one is the camphor tea duck that I made, and that one over there is the eight-treasure gourd duck that Master Xia made. And that one is the squirrel mandarin fish that Master Xia made, and the one next to it is made by Master Wang."
"No wonder I beat you two. Judging from the appearance of these two menus, they are top-notch!" Mr. Zhang praised and picked up a pair of chopsticks from the side to start tasting the dishes.
He first tasted the dishes prepared by Chef Wang and Chef Li, then nodded and said, "Well, there's nothing wrong with it. It's even better than yours."
Then he took a bite of Xia Tian's dish and tasted it. After tasting it, he smiled and shook his head: "You two really deserve to lose. The dish he made is at least a level higher than yours!"
Master Li also smiled bitterly and said, "Yeah! This is also why Chef Liu and I disagree with Master Xia's draw. The gap is too obvious. If this can be considered a draw, our Yuan Zun will definitely be ridiculed if the news gets out."
Mr. Zhang nodded and said, "You did the right thing!"
Qiu Mengyun was already feeling a bit hungry before she came in. Now she could only look at the delicious food in front of her but couldn't eat it. Especially after listening to Mr. Zhang and the others' comments, her desire for the food in front of her became even stronger.
Perhaps the desire in my heart was too strong, and my stomach also made an unhappy protest at this time.
Her stomach was rumbling quietly, but no one was talking at the moment.
Seeing everyone's eyes turned to her, Qiu Mengyun smiled awkwardly: "Ahem, sorry, I lost my composure when I saw the delicious food."
Mr. Zhang had noticed the intimate interaction between Xia Tian and Qiu Mengyun earlier. With his experience and discerning eyes, it wasn't hard for him to guess their relationship. He smiled and said, "It's okay, we were being rude. Since this is a competition, how could only our people try the dishes? We should have invited you earlier."
"Come on, beautiful lady, could you please comment on these dishes?"
Mr. Zhang is indeed a veteran. With just a few words, he not only resolved Qiu Mengyun's embarrassment, but also allowed her to eat the dishes naturally.
"Uh! Is this, is this not good?" Qiu Mengyun said a little embarrassedly when she saw so many people around looking at her.
"It's okay. You came here this time to exchange cooking skills! Now your boyfriend and our Chef Liu are concentrating on cooking, and we try and comment on the dishes they cook together, which can also be regarded as exchanging cooking skills!" Mr. Zhang naturally understood that Qiu Mengyun said that just because the girl was thin-skinned, and immediately gave her an excuse that she could not refuse.
"Haha! Since we're discussing cooking skills, I won't be polite!"
After saying this, Qiu Mengyun didn't care whether anyone was watching her or not, she picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
She first ate the camphor tea duck made by Master Li, wanting to see what this duck dish praised by Xia Tian was like.
"Mmm! It's delicious. It's even better than the Imperial Capital Roast Duck I had before."
Even though her mouth was already dripping with grease, Qiu Mengyun hadn't forgotten that she was participating in a culinary exchange. As she looked towards the next dish, she gave a thumbs-up in praise.
"Try Master Xia's Eight Treasure Gourd Duck, it's absolutely state banquet quality."
"Mmm! This is delicious too."
Seeing Qiu Mengyun eating happily, the others all turned their heads tacitly and shifted their attention to Xia Tian and Liu Zhenxing so as not to delay her eating.
They can turn their heads away and not watch, but the audience in the live broadcast room cannot.
Qiu Mengyun is eating so much here that her mouth is full of grease, but it’s hard for the fans in the live broadcast room.
: Wuuwuwu! Why are you so cruel to me? I've been working overtime and haven't even had time to eat instant noodles, and now you show me this.
: Qiu Mengyun is going too far. Just eat it, why do you have to smack your lips?
: Ahhh! I really want to try the Eight Treasure Gourd Duck made in the summer, how delicious it is!
: It must be delicious, otherwise it would be impossible for Master Li and Chef Liu to admit defeat voluntarily. Even Mr. Zhang said that their defeat was not unfair.
: To be honest, this Xia Tian guy really surprised me. When I saw him cooking on the show, I thought he was just a home cook. Now it seems that this guy is completely professional at the level of a star hotel chef!
: Haha! How could he not be professional? He is about to overturn a five-star hotel single-handedly.
I'm just curious, who did Xia Tian learn his cooking skills from? The squirrel mandarin fish and the eight-treasure gourd duck are all state banquet dishes!
