The fast-traveling girl has no feelings for her

Chapter 449 Happy Restaurant Dessert (39)

Looking at the tempting soup in front of him, Ming Lao no longer hesitated, reached out to pick up the soup spoon at hand, took a mouthful of hot soup from the bottom of the soup pot, and slowly poured it into his mouth.

When this roasted onion soup with milky sauce, which was made with beef bone and vegetable soup that had been simmered for several hours, and cleverly added a variety of spices, flowed between his lips and teeth, Ming Lao only felt a warm current slipping directly from the tip of his tongue. in the belly.

At this moment, he felt that the pores all over his body seemed to be opened by this mouthful of hot soup, and his whole body became much more comfortable and warm.

Soon, he drank the second sip of soup, and the third sip...even the piece of cheese toast on top of the soup was not missed by him, and he swallowed it cleanly.

After finishing the whole cup of soup, the veteran reviewer gave a heartfelt admiration.

"A chef who can combine the taste of high-end ingredients with the taste of ordinary ingredients in such a simple way and achieve such a high level is really amazing!"

After hearing this, the other reviewers nodded repeatedly, expressing their unanimous agreement.

The Ming Laohui gave such an evaluation, which was completely within their expectations.

Only Boss Lan, who was sitting in the left corner, wanted to criticize these two dishes.

But when he himself saw the dinner plate that he swept away again, and the soup that was completely drunk, he silently swallowed those words that wanted to say that the dishes were not good.

He didn't want to do the thing that slapped his face with his own words.

Now if he jumps out and says that the main dish and soup served by Koda are not good, not to mention whether these reviewers will scold him, even the two CDs on his own table are unreasonable of.

After all, if you say that the dishes made by other chefs are not good, why do you still eat and drink so cleanly?
Therefore, Boss Lan chose to remain silent this time.

Now the menu that Tian Xiaofu gave to everyone was on the menu, the appetizer, the main course and the soup were all served, now there is only the last dessert left.

This time, no matter what kind of dessert Koda can come up with, he will definitely criticize it as worthless!
Boss Lan has made a decision in his heart.

Tian Xiaofu, who has been standing aside and carefully observing the reactions of the judges, has a rough judgment on the quality of the three dishes presented by Koda.

Once upon a time, the man who traveled all over the world with her, only looking for and tasting delicious food, turned out to be a person who could cook amazing food.

It seems that during the years she and Koda were separated, the other party has indeed grown a lot.

It is also time for her to stop dwelling on the pain and sorrow of the past.

Tian Xiaofu knew that from the moment she stood up from the wheelchair in order to save Lulai, she had unconsciously walked out of the shadows of the past.

After eating the main course and soup slowly, the judges couldn't help but start to look forward to what kind of dessert Koda will serve next.

Tian Xiaofu, who took the initiative to go forward to clear the plates, was surprised to find that the judge sitting in the middle, that is, Mr. Ming, seemed to have a few traces of concern.

Tian Xiaofu didn't know why the other party had such an expression on his face, but her intuition told him that the appearance of this expression might not be a good thing for Xing Tian's assessment.

However, at this time, she couldn't ask the other party directly, so she had to remove the plate and turn to the back kitchen.

In the back kitchen, Koda was still concentrating on making the last dessert—the nine-story Linglong Pagoda.

Making this dessert takes a lot of patience.

Because the main dessert ingredients used for each layer and the various sandwich layers applied are different, once the chef is a little negligent, the final product will not look good.

Tian Xiaofu who came into the back kitchen didn't bother Xing Tian, ​​she put down the plate in her hand lightly, and then backed out.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and there were already ten exquisite dessert plates on the operating table at Koda's hand.

There is a dessert he carefully made on each plate.

When this dessert is completely formed, it looks like a delicate and compact nine-story pagoda.

This nine-story pagoda, from the outside, is filled with a lot of fresh and colorful fruits, chocolate chips, jams and other ingredients, plus layers of light powder, light white cream or ice cream sandwiches, and golden soft Sweet muffins look extra tempting.

Although you can roughly see what kind of ingredients are used in each layer of the dim sum tower just by looking at it with the naked eye, but only Koda, the chef who makes desserts, knows it. Only those who have built the pagoda can know the real mystery inside.

By the time the ten parts of the nine-story Linglong Pagoda were completely completed, Koda's hand, which was used to hold the cutter for trimming desserts, was already sore and numb.

Looking at the trays of desserts exuding a tempting sweet aroma in front of him, Koda touched his stomach unconsciously.

Since the first appetizer, he has been busy until now, and he is actually a little hungry.

Cooking is really not a job that anyone can do, at least in terms of physical strength, there is a hurdle here.

As for the final result he can get after surviving today's work, it depends on the ratings given by the reviewers outside after tasting this dessert.

Now that the five-star chef assessment has entered the final stage, Koda chose to walk out of the kitchen carrying two large trays with his hands.

As soon as he came out of the back kitchen, Tian Xiaofu immediately stepped forward to take a tray in his hand when he saw this.

The two walked up to the judges in the first row and the second row respectively, and after a short while put the last dessert in front of the ten judges one by one.

From the first sight of this dessert with unique shape, exquisite color and rich sweet aroma, the judges present scored this dessert in their hearts.

Generally speaking, they have seen quite a few snacks like this kind of layered cake.

This kind of dessert can be made by ordinary star chefs, and the selection of ingredients and taste levels are naturally different.

At this time, it depends on whether the chef has his own unique secrets or hidden secrets in the snacks to win.

And this time, what kind of secret will a young chef who wants to apply to become a five-star chef hide in his last dessert called "Nine-story Linglong Tower"?

With such doubts and expectations, almost every judge picked up their knives and forks at the same time, and began to cut this delicious and attractive dessert.

Only Boss Lan, who was sitting in a remote place, picked up a knife and fork for eating desserts in his hand, but the tip of his knife never dropped.

Do the math, how many years have passed since he stopped eating desserts?

He can't remember clearly, probably... It started from the year his mother died, right?
At this moment, Boss Lan, who had desserts reflected in his eyes, couldn't help but recall the scene of getting along with his mother when he was a child.

At that time, there was a large floor-to-ceiling window in the kitchen of his house.

Every afternoon, the sun always shines into the kitchen through the window.

At this time, a thin and small woman will get into the kitchen, where she is busy beating eggs, mixing flour, making syrup, and whipping cream.

The woman whose thin figure was turned orange by the sun was his mother.

In his childhood memory, his mother loved sweets the most.

Father is not at home all year round, he always loves to cling to his mother and ask this and that.Every afternoon, my mother would always make some delicious desserts, and sit face to face with him on both sides of the dining table to enjoy together.

In my memory, that woman would always use a knife to cut a piece of cake with sweet fruit first, put it on his plate, and say something along the way, "Gerry, it's time for us to eat cake together again." It's time!"

After that, the mother always watched him eat first, and then she began to eat slowly after he finished eating.

At that time, he didn't know anything, he only thought the cake was delicious, but he would get bored if he ate too much.

Only my mother always chewed those sweet and greasy pastries slowly, as if she would never get tired of them.

When he grows up a little bit, he will also ask his mother suspiciously when he is always eating desserts every afternoon, "Mom, why do you always love sweets so much?"

"If you eat too much of these things, don't you get tired?"

At this time, the thin woman always smiled and pursed her lips, and told him in a gentle tone, "I like it because it is sweet! After all, life is too bitter, isn't it?"

When he was young, he didn't understand what his mother meant by "life is too bitter" at that time, he just thought it was an excuse used by the other party to prevaricate himself, but in fact she just wanted to eat dessert.

He even once felt that his mother was too hypocritical.

Her father is responsible for earning money to support the family, so she usually doesn't care much about him, but she still only cares about eating cakes and having fun.

It wasn't until the day his mother died that his views were completely changed.

On that day, his father, who never came home all the year round, brought another beautiful woman and a pair of twins half his age to his mother's funeral.

Langley, who was still a teenager, understood the truth of the matter when he heard his father introduce that the beautiful woman was his new wife, and that the twins were also his and each other's children.

It turned out that his mother was his father's original partner.

But in the name of work, his father, who has been away all year round, actually reorganized a new family with other women outside.

His mother, the thin woman who was born, took on all the trivial matters of the family alone, but she never complained about being tired. She didn't even tell her children the truth that she and he were abandoned.

Only then did he finally understand that in the years before his mother passed away, the sweets she ate, how sweet every bite she swallowed, and how painful she felt in her heart.

After his mother died, he never had any desserts again.

At this moment, looking at the nine-story Linglong Pagoda on the dinner plate in front of him, the hand of the always mature and stable teacher Lan, who was holding a small dessert knife, was trembling slightly.

After taking a deep breath, he slowly put down the dessert knife and replaced it with a dessert spoon.

This time, he didn't think about those past things in his mind. He just held the dessert spoon tightly, scooped up the first layer of dessert in the nine-story Linglong Tower, and slowly put it into his mouth.

The first layer on the top of this dessert is the most classic vanilla-flavored cake base, with a layer of refreshing chocolate-flavored cream on top, and the inside of the cake is also mixed with tiny chocolate chips.

When Boss Lan swallowed the first bite of the dessert, he wanted to say that the taste of the dessert was not very good, but his mind once again uncontrollably flashed that his mother was sitting at the table, eating alone. What a whole vanilla cake looks like.

In fact, the sweet chocolate taste made by Koda is very close to the sweet smell of the vanilla cakes that wafted in the kitchen in his memory.

Boss Lan, who was not in a hurry to comment, then scooped up the second layer of Linglong Tower's sandwich with a spoon.

This layer uses a sweet waffle base that is baked until browned and fluffy, and is topped with an ice cream coating made from a variety of fruit pâtés.

When the slightly chilled ice cream was brought into the mouth along with the muffins, the sweet and sour taste that originally belonged to the ice cream suddenly turned into delicious ice water flowing on the tongue.

At this time, as long as you chew the muffin lightly, the latter will also melt between your lips and teeth.

After eating the second layer, Boss Lan continued to eat with the dessert spoon.

The dessert on the third layer is a kind of milky biscuit crumbles, and some milky white shredded coconut is sprinkled on top.

The sweetness of shredded coconut combined with the milky aroma of biscuits brings the satisfaction in people's hearts to the extreme.

If it is said that this nine-story Linglong Tower started to shine from the third floor and successfully activated the picky taste buds of the judges, then the dessert on the fourth floor brought them a brand new, icy-hot dessert. The intense stimulation of the two heavens.

Because the young chef named Xingtian actually chose a hot fried crispy strip as the base on this floor, and wrapped it with a layer of sweet but not greasy snowflake hoarfrost.

The sudden meeting of hot and cold, and the collision between different levels of sweetness, immediately aroused the interest of the judges.

Soon, they went on to taste the fifth, sixth and ninth floors of the nine-story Linglong Pagoda.

After eating the last layer, many people present looked a little ecstatic.

And as Ming Lao, who has the qualifications of the oldest judge, he was careful when eating desserts.

That was the Linglong Pagoda on each floor. He didn't finish eating all of them, leaving a part on purpose.

After he tasted all the way from the first floor to the ninth floor, he stuffed the entire nine-story dessert into his mouth.

At this moment, the nine different flavors of Linglong Tower completely produced an explosive bombardment effect on his taste buds.

That indescribably wonderful taste seemed to turn into a overwhelming tsunami, waves of delicious waves hit him one after another, making him immersed in it but willing to drift with it.

The other judges around Mr. Ming saw that he tasted nine layers of desserts at the same time, and they all followed suit.

Boss Lan, who saw the people around him enjoying desserts like this, also learned together.

After these people ate a big mouthful of dessert in the same way, they almost closed their eyes and began to savor and enjoy carefully.
At this moment, the entire Happy Restaurant was so quiet that only the small sounds of chewing food could be heard.
