gourmet restaurant

Chapter 280 Discussion
We ate at a restaurant outside at noon.

At this point, it is impossible for the two of them to go back and make food for themselves.

Jiang Yang also plans to invite Meng Wanqiu to watch a movie, if the delay is too long, I'm afraid it will be delayed.

The two ate maocai!
It wasn't Jiang Yang who brought it up, but Meng Wanqiu.

Maocai, the specialty food of Rongcheng!

It is also often called a person's hot pot.

Maocai is very different from hot pot, but they are very similar.

The spicy and delicious bottom of the pot is also used. The hot pot is hot while eating, and the maocai is cooked all at once.

The bottom of the pot looks similar, but in fact there is a big difference.

Leaving aside the cooking method and the different spices used, just talking about the taste of salt, maocai is heavier than hot pot.

The bottom of the hot pot has a salty taste, but if you don't use the oil dish, the taste will always be a little bit worse.

Hot pot is not just about cooking a few ingredients, it is destined to cook a lot of ingredients.Therefore, the salty taste cannot be very strong at the beginning, otherwise, the salty taste may become unbearable as the end progresses.

Maocai doesn't have this concern, it can be eaten right away, without oil dishes or the like.

The store that Jiang Yang and Meng Wanqiu came to is a chain maocai restaurant in Rongcheng.

There are several brands in Rongcheng like this kind of store.

From Jiang Yang's point of view, this kind of well-known chain store tastes the same, but it just takes advantage of the fame.

Meng Wanqiu didn't eat much, and she didn't know if it was too spicy, but the taste was still not to her liking.

Jiang Yang paid the money and left with Meng Wanqiu.

"Have you bought almost all of them?" Meng Wanqiu asked.

How much Jiang Yang wanted to say that he still had a lot of things to buy, but in fact, due to Liao Xiaoyue's sudden enthusiasm, Jiang Yang's spices were almost bought.

"Well, it's almost there." Jiang Yang replied honestly.

"If there's nothing else to do, I'll take you back to the store and leave first." Meng Wanqiu said.

Jiang Yang opened his mouth, thousands of words finally turned into one word: "En."

Meng Wanqiu smiled, quickly picked up the car, and drove Jiang Yang back to the shop.

I bought a lot of things, but they were not heavy. After all, the spices were basically dried. Even though it looked like a big bag, it was not heavy.

After putting the things back in the shop, Meng Wanqiu had started the car again.

"Then I'll go first and contact you if you need anything."

Jiang Yang seemed to have made up his mind after thinking all the way.

"Squad leader!"

"Is something wrong?"

"Then what, I bought an extra movie ticket, why don't we go see it together?" Jiang Yang said.

There are so many to buy there, and Jiang Yang hasn't even bought it yet.

"Oh? Then I have to see what kind of movie it is. If it's not good, I don't want to go." Meng Wanqiu laughed.

"You must like to watch it, why don't you guess it?" Jiang Yang said.

Meng Wanqiu didn't expect that Jiang Yang didn't buy it, but he didn't doubt it. After guessing two movies in a row, Jiang Yang shook his head.

When Meng Wanqiu mentioned the name of the third movie, Jiang Yang clapped his hands and said, "Exactly this one!"

Meng Wanqiu smiled: "What a coincidence? Could it be that you deceived me?"

"No way! I'm going to see that movie today!" Jiang Yang patted his chest loudly.

Meng Wanqiu didn't refuse this time, Jiang Yang excused himself to go to the restroom and quickly bought the ticket.

Fortunately, what Meng Wanqiu was talking about was a new movie. If it was an old movie, then Jiang Yang would be out of embarrassment.

……

While Meng Wanqiu and Jiang Yang were watching the movie, they were far away in the capital.

In the headquarters office of the National Association of Chefs, 35 old men sat in a conference room.

These are the presidents of the Association of Chefs and the presidents of the provincial chapters.

Corresponding to the provincial administrative regions of Huaguo, the Chefs Association also has 34 branches.

It's just that the level of food development varies from place to place, so the branches of these chef associations also have differences in size.

The Sichuan Provincial Chefs Association can be regarded as the first echelon of the branches.

At this moment, Lin Yong was also sitting upright, and next to him were the presidents of Hunan Chefs Association and Guangdong Province Chefs Association.

And the president of the Chefs Association is talking on the podium.

"The following is the time for discussion, and everyone is eager to express their opinions." After the president finished speaking, he motioned for everyone to discuss.

Lin Yong got up immediately: "I was thinking, is it really good to make it public?"

"Since our Chefs Association hosted this culinary competition, if there are any competitions or exams, they have never been made public.

As chefs, we understand ourselves.The cooking competition sounds good, but the actual process is very boring, and the viewability is too low. I am afraid that no one will watch it. " Lin Yong said.

What Lin Yong said is quite right. The culinary competition is not very interesting to watch, which is why the Chefs Association has been slow to make up its mind.

With Lin Yong at the beginning, other people also started to discuss.

"But other industries are entering the public's field of vision. Is it possible that we still close the door and play our own as before?"

"You can't say that, it's mainly a question of how the competition looks good."

"How else can chefs compare? Do you want to compete in the ring one-on-one?"

"Why don't you make gestures? Why don't you compare your sword skills alone!"

"Competing knife skills alone, I'm afraid I'll laugh my ass off! It's not the second-level chef exam, and the chefs who can come to participate in the competition, the knife skills are not bad! And... What do you ask Chef Bai to do? Chef Bai's knife skills It’s already worse than the chef in the red case, so according to what you say, the chef in the white case might as well not come.”

"I didn't say not to let the white case chef come, so don't talk nonsense."

"Isn't that what you mean?"

"you……"

"Okay! Stop arguing!"

The leading old man scolded.

"I'm already old, why are you still arguing like a child? I asked you to discuss, not to quarrel."

After finishing speaking, he paused and said again: "Although we are here to discuss whether cooking competitions should appear in the public eye, everyone must understand that blindly avoiding the problem will not solve the problem. Just looking at our Chefs Association and With some sponsorship, the vitality of this game will become weaker and weaker, and there will always be a day when it can't last.

It is necessary to enter the public eye, even if not now, it will definitely be in the future.The competition that enters the public eye can increase more benefits for our chefs, and let the public know what kind of chef is a good chef.

The development of food culture has never been the chef's self-entertainment. Letting everyone know more about chefs and food is also to contribute to the development of food culture.

Blindly escaping is useless.

Facts have proved that food programs have a wide audience. From "Bite of Tongue" and last year's "Rongcheng", these two food programs are very popular.And our cooking competition, logically speaking, should also be popular. "

After some words, some of the people were thoughtful, and some were dismissive.

Huang Wenbing, president of the Guangdong Chefs Association, suddenly said: "I think we can add a commentary, like a football game. It doesn't matter if you don't understand, we will explain it to everyone. In this way, there is a flexible commentary, even if the cooking time is longer. , and won’t make the atmosphere too embarrassing.”

Huang Wenbing's suggestion was supported by Lin Yong: "President Huang is right. Having a commentator can indeed help everyone understand the game to a certain extent."

"This is a good way. You can come down and study and discuss it carefully. Do you have other ways?" the president said.

Everyone looked at each other, but no one came up with any useful solutions.

"Since everyone has no idea, let's vote now. Please check whether you agree or disapprove, and we will count it later." The president said, and motioned to the staff at the side to distribute the voting paper.
