Start with delicious food

……

at the same time.

On another stretch gourmet sedan.

"Cheers~"

After holding up a large beer glass and clinking glasses with Komatsu, Aru drank the delicious cold beer in his hand in one gulp.

"Ah~ It feels so good! It tastes delicious!"

"The ice-cold Ruby beer on the stretch gourmet car is so delicious..."

"Huh? Xiaosong, why don't you drink it? Is your cantaloupe champagne not delicious? After all, you'd better have a glass of ruby ​​beer with me!"

Because he was too nervous, Komatsu turned his head mechanically. He responded with a slightly trembling tone.

"No, no, Mr. Alu."

"I'm just too nervous and can't drink."

Hearing this, Alu showed a hearty smile on his face.

"Hahaha~ Why are you so nervous there? Xiaosong."

"You're not a pine tree. Just relax and enjoy yourself."

"With so much delicious food on the bus, it would be a shame if it was wasted."

As he spoke, Alu picked up a piece of baked assorted potato and bacon rolls with a fork and stuffed it into his mouth.

"It's delicious! Xiaosong, come and join us!"

Xiaosong said nervously. "As expected...it's still unbelievable! I didn't expect that I would be able to attend a food festival where many chefs compete to be the best in the world."

"Haha... To be honest, Mr. Aru. Until now, I still feel like I am in a dream."

"I just couldn't even think about participating in a food festival or anything like that before."

Alu smiled and guided.

"Hahaha~ What is this? Xiaosong. Of course you are not dreaming now."

"The Food Festival is a gourmet event that will determine the latest world's number one chef."

"Only top chefs who are among the top 100 chefs in the world are eligible to be invited to the food festival."

"Komatsu, you are ranked 88th on the ranking list. You are already among the top cooks in the human world. It is natural for you to be qualified to participate in the food festival."

Komatsu put down the wine glass in his hand.

"But... those within a hundred are all world-famous top cooks."

"All the top chefs in the world will compete at this food festival... Compared with them, I am still too immature."

Hearing this, Alu smiled and shook his head.

"Hahaha~ Xiaosong, your skills are not inferior to theirs at all. I can guarantee this, you are my partner! You have to show more confidence!"

"What's more, my junior brothers and sisters will also participate in this food festival."

"I still remember that Teacher Qin Hao hoped that we could form a partnership... In short, Komatsu, you must not lose to them! Especially Yukihira Souma!"

Xiaosong was stunned for a moment, then looked at Aru with curiosity.

"Huh? Souma Yukihira...ah! He's the cook who figured out how to remove toxins from poisonous potatoes!"

"So he is also Mr. Qin Hao's disciple? How awesome!"

"But why do you say you must not lose to him?"

Aru replied.

"Because before we formed a partnership with you, Xiaosong, I formed a temporary partnership with him for a period of time."

"I admit that that guy's cooking skills are indeed very good, but he always likes to use ingredients to make some very strange combinations. And then mix these unpalatable dark dishes into normal food..."

Seeing the change of expression on Alu's face, black lines appeared on Xiaosong's face. Then he said with an embarrassed look.

"Ah, haha~ That's it. No wonder you didn't continue to partner with him, Mr. Aru..."

"So! Xiaosong! You must defeat him! Otherwise, I will make him laugh for the rest of his life!" Alu said.

"Even if you say so, Mr. Aru... well, I will do my best! Mr. Aru!"

"Ah, by the way. Speaking of which, there will be many famous chefs attending this food festival that I want to sign!"

"Ahh! What should I do? What should I do? I'm so nervous now!"

Several black lines appeared on Alu's face. "Oh~! So Komatsu, are you nervous because of this kind of thing!?"

Xiaosong patted his face to calm down. Then he continued.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Aru... this car is so long! Is this a train? I was too nervous before, so I didn't pay attention!"

"I'm talking about you, Xiaosong. You are really..."

"Ah! Mr. Aru! Look outside, there seems to be a car that looks very similar to ours!"

Alu turned around and looked in the direction of Xiaosong's finger.

"Really! That should also be a car picking up a certain cook attending a food festival."

"Really! Which chef will be joining us! Ah, Mr. Alu, I seem to be getting nervous again!"

At this moment, the radio on the roof suddenly sounded. The driver's voice came from inside.

"Mr. Aru, and Chef Xiaosong."

"We will arrive at the festival venue soon."

Alu nodded. "Oh, thank you for your hard work along the way!"

Xiaosong stood up and leaned by the window to look outside.

The beautiful scenery made Xiaosong couldn't help but scream.

Looking at the huge island that has appeared in the distance. Komatsu said excitedly.

"That's it! The holy place that cooks all over the world admire! COOKING Gourmet Island!"

……

In addition to the dozens of cross-sea bridges leading to COOKING Food Island, there are special passages reserved for chefs participating in the festival.

All other bridges are blocked by vehicles trying to enter the island.

In the sky, gourmet blind box salutes, which will drop a large number of snacks or chocolate candies to the ground after the explosion, explode one after another, making it extremely lively.

Tens of thousands of food-shaped balloons float into the sky with promotional slogans or blessings for the food festival.

As the extended gourmet car stopped at the entrance of the food festival, Alu drooled as he looked at the crowded food court outside.
