Dare to cook

Chapter 2 Sign up for the competition
The next day.

early morning.

Yao Yu woke up, had breakfast, and went to the Shanghai Chefs Association, preparing to sign up for the famous chef selection competition.

Today is the fifth and last day of registration for the Famous Contest.

The rewards for this competition are very generous.

Coupled with the overwhelming publicity from various media, the number of contestants attracted is far ten times higher than before.

The hall of Shencheng Kitchen Association was crowded with hundreds of chefs who came to sign up.

Yao Yu was wearing a mask and holding a completed registration form, standing in the queue unobtrusively.

The registration line was very long, and it was not his turn in a while.

Yao Yu was not in a hurry, and just quietly used the [cooking scouting] skill to observe the nearby contestants.

The number of contestants in this competition is very large, and the level is also very different.

Yao Yu observed around and found that the strength of most people was between lv4-lv6, and occasionally he could see a few strange things of lv2.

That kind of person doesn't even count as an apprentice chef, it can only be said that they are purely for cuteness.

According to the system, the culinary level is divided into 13 levels.

They are:
Lv1（0-100）-lv2（100-1000）-lv3（1000-3000）-lv4（3000-8000）-lv5（8000-15000）-lv6（15000-24000）-lv7（24000-35000）

As for the level division above lv7, Yao Yu was unable to check it because his own level was not enough.

But he already knew through the system description that a chef at level 5 is considered one of the best chefs in a thousand among the general population.

And young people like Yao Yu with culinary skills as high as lv7 (32399) are even rarer, and it is very difficult to meet them.

Of course, those old chefs who are over 18 years old and have been cooking for more than [-] years are not included.

As time goes on, the queues for registration are shortening.

When it was Yao Yu's turn to register.

The little girl sitting at the registration window glanced at him and said, "Please take off the mask, we are going to take a picture."

Hearing this, Yao Yu took off his mask, revealing a handsome face.

The little girl inside glanced at him.

then.

She couldn't help but screamed: "Yao Yu! You are Yao Yu!"

The name of a man, the shadow of a tree.

Yao Yu learned to cook at the age of ten and began to compete in the Jade Food List.In the next three years, it has been ranked first in the jade food list continuously, and no one can shake it.

The brilliant achievements made Kuangtu Yu famous.

In addition, this guy is very handsome, and he was often interviewed by various media when he was young and frivolous, so his exposure was extremely high.

In Shencheng's culinary circle, there is almost no one who does not know Yao Yu.

When the little girl called out, the other chefs who had signed up also turned their eyes.

"I'll go, it's really Yao Yu!"

"Yao Manzi? Why is he here? Does he also want to sign up for the competition?"

"Hasn't he already lost his sense of taste? Three years ago, when the top [-] of the Jade Food List got together, Shen Linxuan deliberately gave Yao Yu a piece of salted meat, and he couldn't even taste the salty taste!"

"Maybe he has been cured?"

"Fuck! If this is the case, then there will be a good show!"

"You said, if Yu's madman really recovered his sense of taste, would he still be able to rush to the top of the jade food list?"

"This...it's hard to say. The current jade food list leader Lu Chenyu has also been number one for three consecutive years."

"Besides, Yao Manzi had already retired when Lu Chenyu made his debut. The two have never fought against each other, so we don't know who is stronger."

"Haha! Yao Yu is back, his nemesis is going to be in trouble again. No, I have to quickly post on the forum..."

For a while, everyone was talking about it.

Someone with a sharp eye and quick hands took two photos of Yao Yu and posted them on the chef forum.

Listening to these people's discussion, Yao Yu felt a little emotional, but he didn't care.

"Can you help me register quickly?" Yao Yu smiled at the little girl who was still staring at him in the window.

"Oh, ok, wait a minute."

The little girl blushed slightly, and hurriedly took pictures of Yao Yu for registration.

Finally, she secretly took a picture of Zhang Yao Shuaibi’s profile with her mobile phone.

After Yao Yu registered, he left the kitchen association hall under the gaze of everyone.

As soon as I walked out of the Chef Association, the system beep sounded.

[The first ring of the mission "The Return of the Famous Chef": 1. Please sign up for the Famous Selection Competition within 24 hours (completed)]

[Trigger B-level side mission: Warm up before the game]

【Mission Description:】

[Users have not done high-intensity cooking work for a long time, please get back to your peak state before the start of the famous competition]

【Task requirements:】

[Please apply for a post-cook job within eight hours.Please cook 1000 dishes before the game starts]

【mission rewards:】

[Can be randomly selected to get a lv6 Sichuan cuisine dish]

Yao Yu was slightly taken aback when he saw the new mission.

Warming up before the game is a must.Even if there is no system task, he has to do it.

After all, he hasn't worked in the kitchen for three years.

Before participating in the competition, it is necessary to regain the previous peak feel through cooking.

It's just that this task is a bit demanding.

To find a job as a chef in eight hours, you have to cook a thousand dishes before the event.

Counting from tomorrow, there are still five days before the official start of the competition.

This is equivalent to saying that Yao Yu must help the store sell [-] dishes every day for the next five days.

Cooking [-] dishes a day would be exhausting for an ordinary chef.

But Yao Yu didn't feel too much pressure.Because he had previously set a record of cooking 316 dishes in a single day.

There are [-] dishes a day, as long as there is a helper who is responsible for cutting and serving, it is not difficult to complete.

The key is to find a store with good business.

Otherwise, the business is not good, and the boss will not let him cook so many dishes.

However, among so many restaurants and restaurants in Shanghai, which one has a good business but is short of a manager?

Yao Yu rubbed his chin, but didn't have a clue for a moment.

And at this moment, two chefs who had signed up came out of the hall of the Kitchen Association.

The two talked while walking:

"Brother, do we really want to change jobs with Master?"

"Otherwise? The salary offered by Qiushui Pavilion is three times that of Renhe Pavilion. Why not make money if you have money."

"But wouldn't that be unkind? Right after Boss Tang passed away, we switched jobs. The entire chef left, and Renhe Restaurant couldn't continue."

"Unkind? We all come out to work, and earning money is the most important thing. Who makes Renhe Pavilion not willing to pay the same price as Qiushuilou?"

The two walked away while talking.

Yao Yu, who happened to hear these words, showed a hint of memory.

Renhe Pavilion...

Isn't that the restaurant opened by local chef Tang Deren?

It is said that Tang Deren taught him two secret recipes for making spiced smoked fish a few years ago.

Old Tang is not yet sixty, right?

How did he die?

Yao Yu was a little surprised, and he immediately decided to go to Renhe Pavilion to have a look.

Renhe Pavilion is located on Zhangyang Road, very close to the subway station.

When Yao Yu took a taxi to the Renhe Pavilion, it was almost ten o'clock in the morning.

At this time, it’s time for the kitchen to be busy preparing dishes.

But it was still early for dinner, and no one was seen in the restaurant for a while.

When Yao Yu walked into Renhe Hall, he saw the waiters in the front hall gathering together in twos and threes and talking in low voices, looking very absent-minded.

Yao Yu looked around, and after waiting for two to three minutes, a slender waiter greeted him with a smile on his face: "Hi, would you like to have a meal or make a reservation?"

"Is your boss here?" Yao Yu asked directly.

The young waitress was slightly taken aback, and asked hesitantly, "Sir, what can I do?"

Yao Yu didn't go around in circles, and said, "I heard that you are short of chefs here, and I'm here to apply."

"Ah?" The waiter Zhang Xiaohan opened his mouth suddenly, with a silly face.
