1911 Dragon Gate entrance
The three most promising chefs present, head chef Jin from Guangdong Province, head chef Kang from Sichuan Province, and head chef Chu from Zhejiang Province, were really looking forward to it.
“I’m looking forward to the chef the most. I must get him!” Head chef Chu was very confident.
Head chef Jin was also very confident, but he stretched his neck so far that his little disciple was worried that he might twist his neck.
“You’ve finally come. Thank God I didn’t give up …” Kang Hu almost sang out loud.
Different from the previous awards, when Cheng zhaomei mentioned the last award, the atmosphere instantly became anxious.
Who was Yuan Zhou?
He was officially recognized as the chef king of China.
He was the Chinese chef King recognized by the three generations of the cooking circle.
He was one of the top chefs in Asia, and no one in the entire Asian chef Alliance could match him.
The editor-in-chief of food and wine couldn’t help but sigh,””To be honest, I never thought that a personal award would be so important.”
The chief editor of “culinary hero” nodded and said,””Personally, Yuan Zhou is looking forward to chefs the most. There is no judging standard. To put it more simply, it is an award according to personal preference. To be more precise, it is a very personal award. However, the value of the award can be felt from the atmosphere of the scene.”
Not to mention the chef award, even the film Award would not have such a Private Selection method.
The key was that everyone believed that it would be very difficult to produce a second chef like Yuan Zhou within 100 years.
For this award, basically all the famous young chefs had come. Only those who were not famous had come to join in the fun. If they caught Yuan Zhou’s eye, it wouldn’t be a problem of taking a plane or a rocket.
All the chief editors of the food weekly were ready to witness which chef would Enter the Dragon’s Gate, which would definitely be the highlight of the ceremony.
“The chef who won the title of ‘Yuan Zhou’s most anticipated chef’ this time is …” Cheng zhaomei didn’t know if she did it on purpose, but she dragged her tone when she read the title.
“Jin hai, head chef Jin, let us congratulate head chef Jin.” Guild leader Cheng shouted out Jin Hai’s name in a fit of anger.
There was a brief silence for a few seconds, then a round of applause that seemed to be able to flip the roof over came.
When Jin hai heard his own name, he was stunned at first. Then, the disbelief on his face slowly turned into ecstasy. He immediately stood up, but because he stood up too quickly, his chair almost flipped over. If it wasn’t for the people beside him helping him, he would have embarrassed himself.
But in such a mood, no one laughed at him. To be able to win this award, not to mention falling over a chair, he could even fall over himself.
Kang Hu, head chef Chu, and the other chefs, who had been hoping to get Yuan Zhou’s favor, now had their backs slightly bent. The disappointment on their faces couldn’t be concealed. Of course, they still applauded for head chef Jin.
Even the reporters present had set off a new climax as they were busy taking photos and recording videos.
By the time Jin hai finally remembered to go on stage to receive the award, three minutes had already passed since Chairman Cheng’s announcement.
“I’m sorry, I was too excited. I didn’t expect to get this award. I’m really sorry.” Jin hai hurriedly ran up the stage and bowed to Chairman Cheng in apology.
Facing the audience below, he also bowed and apologized. He had no choice but to admit that he was the one who had delayed everyone’s time.
The crowd below the stage laughed kindly, and the more lively ones even shouted that it was okay. The scene was very harmonious for a time.
“It’s fine. Head chef Jin, do you have anything to say to everyone?” President Cheng was very talented in hosting and immediately replied.
“First of all, I would like to thank head chef Yuan for taking the time out of his busy schedule to try my dishes. He gave me this opportunity. Otherwise, I would definitely not have had the chance to win this award.” While saying that, Jin hai made a deep bow in the direction of Yuan Zhou’s seat to show his gratitude.
“I’ll continue to work hard on my culinary skills and hope to make more and more delicious dishes for my customers. Thank you, everyone.” Jin hai had already calmed down a little, and his intelligence was back online.
After calculating the time, Yuan Zhou knew it was time for him to show up, so he stood up and walked towards Jin hai and Cheng zhaomei. Cheng Han came over with a tray in time.
“Congratulations, I hope you will continue to work hard.” Yuan Zhou took up the trophy and handed it to Jin hai.
Thank you for your encouragement, head chef Yuan. I will continue to work hard.” Jin Hailin’s lips moved a few times but he swallowed the rest of his words. He held the trophy with both hands and was extremely excited.
“Good luck!” Yuan Zhou patted Jin Hai’s shoulder.
Looking at the scene on stage, food discovery Dog had already sent a message back to the weekly magazine, asking them to make an appointment to interview Jin hai.
Of course, the chief editor of food discovery was not the only smart one. The other chief editors also did the same thing. Many of them even searched for Jin hai on the internet.
Then he searched but found nothing. It was not very famous. The most famous among the younger generation of Cantonese cuisine were the Twin Stars of Feng city, Qiu Ji and Cui Hang, who had also participated in the Asian cultural exchange.
Now, it was the head chef of Cantonese cuisine, Jin hai, who had instantly become famous.
Why was it said that it was equivalent to the Dragon entrance gate? it was because everyone was looking forward to the chef that Yuan Zhou was looking forward to.
It was mainly food magazines, diners, and even song Ming of the Cantonese cuisine Association. As the president of the Cantonese cuisine Association, although the Vice President of the chef’s Association was not present, he was always paying attention to it. When he knew that his chef from Guangdong Province had won the award, he immediately found Jin Hai’s information.
“Alright, the award ceremony has come to a successful end. Thank you to all the guests, reporters, and all the new and old customers for your support. I believe that our master chef Restaurant and Yuan Zhou’s food review website will get better and better. Please look forward to the arrival of the new award ceremony. Finally, let’s invite Yuan Yafeng to give a closing speech.” Cheng zhaomei began to make her concluding remarks.
Although this award ceremony was the first one to be held on the spot, Cheng Han had already reported to Yuan Zhou that if the first award ceremony was very successful, it would be changed to live award ceremonies in the future. Now it seemed that it would be held once a year in the future.
Yuan Zhou went on the stage again and received another round of thunderous applause. The hands of head chef Jin, who had just won the award, even turned red from clapping.
“I personally think that there are three stages to a chef. The first stage is when you have your own specialty, so you hope that the diners can taste your best cooking skills as a chef.” Yuan Zhou looked around at the scene and said the three states of cooking that would be regarded as the standard in the cooking circle in the future.
“In the second stage, you know what the diners want to eat and make what they want to eat. In this stage, the seasons are the main things. You don’t have to stick to one or two signature dishes.”
Along with Yuan Zhou’s words, the chefs at the scene also began to examine what realm they belonged to. Many chefs found that even the famous chefs were still stuck in the second stage.
He continued,”the third stage is to know what the diners want to eat and turn what the diners want to eat into their own specialty. This stage is already completed. I hope that our chefs can make delicious dishes that satisfy the diners and suit their taste.”
“Thank you, everyone. Goodbye!”
