Heavenly Gourmet

Chapter 230 Tasting

Many people couldn't help laughing at Li Chen's behavior.

Li Chen watched Lin Hai walking further and further away with his dumplings. Although he was angry, there was nothing he could do.

Because he and Lin Hai are ranked the same, the judges will definitely have a preconceived notion about the first dish, so the first dish tasted will definitely have a good score.

This is also the reason why he wanted to compete with Lin Hai for the first dish to be tasted.

But now, this opportunity has been completely seized by Lin Hai.

Under the gazes of many people, Lin Hai walked up to the four judges and placed his Qinglong dumplings on the judges' podium.

"This is the dish I cooked, Qinglong Dumplings. Please taste it, judges."

Lin Hai's neither humble nor arrogant attitude made everyone very satisfied.

"Well done, young man."

Wu Qingzhi smiled at Lin Hai, his smile full of satisfaction.

I originally thought that the champion of this youth chef competition would be won by someone from Dongchuan City, but now it seems that it is not certain who will win the championship.

"Yes, you are able to do this. There are not many young people in Sihai City who can be like you."

Zhou Qing also praised him, and in his heart he lamented that such an excellent seedling was not from his own Zhou family.

Xu Ding didn't say anything. He and Lin Hai had been fighting, but for the sake of the overall situation, he didn't mock Lin Hai too much.

"Okay, these Qinglong dumplings are on par with the Southwest Noodle King's. Let me try it and see if it tastes the same as the Southwest Noodle King's Qinglong dumplings."

Liu Dongjin nodded slightly, a look of satisfaction on his face, then picked up the chopsticks, picked up a dumpling and put it into his mouth.

As the dumplings entered his mouth, the aroma of the dumpling flour instantly spread throughout his mouth.

The aroma of the green dragon grass kept teasing his taste buds, making him feel as if he was in a vibrant grassland.

"Delicious, very delicious. The taste of the Qinglong dumplings makes me feel like this is the best pasta dish."

Zhou Qing also took a piece of dumplings with chopsticks. After tasting it, he widened his eyes and exclaimed in praise.

"It tastes great. Okay, you can go back and wait."

Chen Cheng also gave a brief summary. After tasting the Qinglong dumplings, he actually felt that they were even more delicious than the Southwest Noodle King's dumplings.

Lin Hai nodded. Although he looked calm on the surface, he was still a little nervous in his heart.

Because he and Li Chen had the same scores in the first two rounds. If there was even only a one-point difference in the third round, it would be a devastating blow.

As Lin Hai returned to his seat, Li Chen carefully brought the dish "Qinglong Chuhai" to the four judges.

"This is the Blue Dragon Out to the Sea that I made. Please enjoy it."

Li Chen nodded slightly at Wu Qingzhi and others and spoke slowly.

Wu Qingzhi's attitude towards Li Chen was obviously not as good as Lin Hai's. In fact, strictly speaking, this youth chef competition was only limited to people from Sihai City, and people from other provinces and cities were not eligible to participate.

This guy came to Sihai City and gave their Food Association a slap in the face.

"The shape of this blue dragon going out to sea is quite nice."

However, Liu Dongjin looked at Li Chen with a smile on his face, changed a pair of chopsticks, picked up the cup to rinse his mouth, and then picked up a piece of Qinglong Chuhai meat.

The meat is green and looks like a green gem.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Dongjin didn't say anything wasteful and put the piece of meat into his mouth without saying a word.

When the meat entered his mouth, Liu Dongjin frowned slightly, but then his brows relaxed.

A fragrance quickly spread in his mouth, and then he chewed it gently twice. The aroma of meat was like an aroma bomb, bursting out in his mouth in an instant.

However, this fragrance only lasted for about ten seconds before slowly dissipating.

This smell aroused Liu Dongjin's vigilance. Logically, this kind of fragrance should last throughout the entire time. How could it only last for ten seconds and then disappear?

Especially the famous dish like Qinglong Chuhai.

The Qinglong Chuhai cooked by the shopkeeper of the Li family back then was not like this.

Soon, Liu Dongjin figured it out.

This dish has very strict requirements on the combination of ingredients. If any one of the ingredients is not good, the taste of the whole dish will be greatly reduced, and even become bitter and unpalatable.

Although the Qinglong's voyage to the sea was successful, it was only half successful at best.

The remaining half failed due to the preparation of the ingredients.

Not only Liu Dongjin, but even Wu Qingzhi and others frowned after tasting the dish, obviously discovering some shortcomings and deficiencies of this dish.

This deficiency is undoubtedly fatal.

"Okay, you can go back and wait."

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Dongjin decided not to tell Li Chen for the time being.

"Why can't you tell me the score now? I think my dish should get full marks."

However, Li Chen certainly did not notice the changes on Liu Dongjin and the others' faces, and he continued to speak arrogantly.

It seems that he is confident of being the first.

"You go back first, we will announce the answer later."

Liu Dongjin had some good feelings towards Li Chen. Although he had violated the rules this time, he was at least a relatively good chef. But now...

"Okay, thank you all for that."

Li Chen showed a victorious smile, and then walked towards his stove.

He went to his own stove, turned his head and looked at Lin Hai, and said proudly: "In this third round, you can't compare with me no matter what. My dishes, appearance, and taste are far better than yours. What can you compare with me?"

Lin Hai shrugged: "The scores haven't come out yet, so it's hard to say who will win or lose."

"Humph, I'll show you how you are defeated by me in a moment."

Li Chen snorted coldly.

After Li Chen and Lin Hai let the four judges taste the dishes, Zhou Buyan, Xu Changqing and others also brought their dishes to Liu Dongjin and the other three.

After tasting all the dishes, the judges began to discuss the scores.

Lin Hai and others were also feeling uneasy. Li Chen stared at Liu Dongjin and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

This bad premonition made his face slightly grim. The time to decide his fate was about to come.

If I really lose to that shop owner and go back, I'm afraid I'll never be able to make a comeback.

"Impossible! I am number one! How can this kid be my opponent?"

Li Chen gritted his teeth and said this to himself.

I have worked so hard for this game, how could I lose to this guy!

Then, his brows relaxed.

Lin Hai also took a deep breath, with a serious look on his face.

This was his first time participating in this kind of cooking competition, and he was extremely nervous.

Soon, the host appeared again. He held the microphone and said loudly to the audience and contestants on the stage: "Now, please wait a few minutes. The final champion of this youth chef competition will be announced soon!"

The whole audience fell silent at this moment. Everyone held their breath and looked towards the judges.

Soon, the four judges discussed and came to a conclusion together.

Liu Dongjin stood up and walked towards the center of the competition stage.

When he stood in the middle of the game, holding the microphone and preparing to make an announcement, everyone present was staring at him. Even Lin Hai, Li Chen and others had a solemn look in their eyes.

"The results of the competition are finally going to be announced. Why am I so nervous?"

After her throat rolled, Chu Qianqian's face was also filled with nervousness. She patted her chest gently with her hands, waiting for Liu Dongjin to announce the result of the competition.

Although Lin Xin didn't react as strongly as Chu Qianqian, she also clenched her hands, and it was obvious that she was also very upset.

"Okay, after comprehensive evaluation by our judging panel, the first place winner of the third round is—"

After Liu Dongjin finished speaking, he stopped. He first glanced at Li Chen, who looked into his eyes and his heart began to beat fast.

The smile on Li Chen's lips slowly spread out.

Victory will surely belong to me.

It seems that it is nine out of ten.

However, after Liu Dongjin nodded to Li Chen, he looked towards Lin Hai again.

"The winner is the chef of Baiweichu, Lin Hai!"

As the words fell, the entire competition venue was silent for a moment, and then a sound like thunder broke out.

"Well done!"

"First place!"

"Oh my god, the chefs from the three major families didn't even win the first place!"

"Who is the boss of this Baiweichu?"

"..."

The audience erupted in whispers, making the entire venue look like a market.

The smile on Li Chen's lips slowly froze, replaced by an expression of disbelief.

How can this be!

How could this guy possibly beat me!

impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

A ball of fire suddenly surged in Li Chen's chest.
