Rebirth's Private Kitchen

The qualifiers for many months have finally come to an end. A total of 24 contestants from Linshui City have won the provincial promotion competition.Before the start of the provincial competition, the entertainment competition also beat the gongs and drums, and entered the intense and exciting hot selection.Players from all regions, towns, ages and identities also gathered in Linshui City.

After many months, Tang Lin brought Su Zhiliang Ting to Linshui City again.It's just that the protagonist this time is not Tang Lin, but Liang Ting, a master of women's clothing who is about to show off in the entertainment competition.There are also special hotels for the contestants to stay in the entertainment competition, but the contestants cannot bring assistants like the professional competition, so Tang Lin and Su Zhi finally stayed in the same hotel relying on the local ability of the Su family of.

Liang Ting's match was on the afternoon of the second day. Tang Lin and the others went to have a meal after putting away their luggage at the hotel, and then drove to the entertainment match site, intending to enjoy the excitement of the match.Compared with the closedness of the professional competition, the entertainment competition is completely open. The competition venue is set up in the open-air square at the entrance, and the chef cooks inside. You must be able to take this lively picture into your eyes.Moreover, the organizer also set up a large screen in the open-air square, so that those who cannot watch the competition through the crowd in the periphery can watch the exciting scenes of the contestants cooking in real time through the large screen.

This can also be regarded as a specific "festival" in each region of the cooking competition.Local people begin to look forward to the triennial entertainment competition every time this season comes.

When Tang Lin and the others arrived, there were already many people outside.Relying on their height advantage, they could only roughly see the vague figures of the internal players surrounded by many layers inside and outside.

"It's still so lively!" After all, Liang Ting is a native of Linshui City, so he has followed the culinary competition more or less since he was a child. He even watched the excitement with his classmates three years ago.

The big screen next to it is broadcasting the figures of the staff who are making preparations on the field. There is also a series of countdowns under the screen. It seems that there is less than half an hour before the start of the game.

There happened to be a coffee shop closest to the big screen, and Tang Lin and Su Zhi went directly to occupy an open-air spot to watch the game through the big screen.Liang Ting expressed that he wanted to really feel the charm of the competition. He had already sneaked into the crowd like a nimble monkey, and now he was probably standing at the closest place to the competition stage.

Tang Lin asked the waiter to bring two cups of coffee, and chatted with Su Zhi about the culinary competition while drinking.Chatting and chatting, the time passed quickly, and the countdown of less than half an hour soon had only the last 3 minutes left.

In the last ten seconds, driven by the host, the people in the square counted down in unison as if facing the countdown to the new year.After everyone said "1", white mist was sprayed around the stage, and ten contestants from the first group of the first round came out from the periphery of the red blanket.They were dressed very casually, some in suits, some in school uniforms, and some looked like housewives with their own aprons.Ten people, ten identities, and ten different ages, seem to be very interesting.

These ten people waved and blew kisses to the audience without any stage fright. They seemed to be quite experienced. Maybe they had participated in entertainment competitions three years ago.

The host started the opening speech in a cadence, and then gave a general introduction to each player. Following his introduction, the pictures of the ten players, their age and occupation, flashed across the big screen one by one.The oldest one is the old man in the middle, who is 66 years old this year.The youngest is the female student in the second row in front, who is exactly 18 this year.

Because there are still several groups of contestants waiting for the follow-up, the introduction of each contestant is very simple. After the host finished speaking, the contestants were asked to say a statement of participation, and then entered the formal vegetable planting session.

There are twelve tables in the arena, ten of which are for the players, and the other two are just in case there is a problem with the equipment.

The food area is also very large, directly occupying one wall, so the contestants choose their own materials in this food area, and when there is a lack of food, someone will fill it up in time.

The ten contestants each drew their table serial numbers, walked to the table, rolled up their sleeves and began to wash and chop or stir-fry vegetables.Some of them were probably relatives or friends of the contestants, and they were shouting their names loudly to cheer them up.

Looking at such a scene, Tang Lin joked, "It feels like our professional competition is not as grand as the entertainment competition."

"After all, the entertainment competition is the entertainment of the whole people. In the early stage of the professional competition, we have been very strict in order not to leak the topic." Su Zhi said seriously.

Seeing Su Zhi's serious expression, Tang Lin couldn't help leaning over and kissing him.Su Zhi blushed silently, and lowered his head to drink the coffee in front of him.

The entertainment competition was really exciting, and the host was full of witty remarks, which amused the audience who were watching enthusiastically, responded enthusiastically, and cheered one after another.

There is also an interactive activity in the entertainment competition. After each round of dishes finished by the contestants, a few spectators will be selected on the spot to try the dishes.If many viewers feel that the food of this player is delicious, this player (who has been eliminated) can still enter the candidate area, and after all the players have finished the competition, they will compete with other players in the candidate area. Among them, there will be three players can re-qualify for promotion.

Tang Lin and Su Zhi watched it all afternoon, and were also infected by the lively atmosphere of the game. After watching all of today's games, they were still a little bit unsatisfied.It is true that the contestants have their own characteristics and their personalities are quite different. Some contestants are simply born cross talkers, and they can always make everyone laugh without saying a word.

Tang Lin and Su Zhi couldn't help laughing several times, they were really happy.After watching the game on the first day, Tang Lin captured Liang Ting and brought him back to the hotel. After taking a shower, the three of them took a taxi to the busiest night market in Linshui City.Led by the local tour guide Liang Ting, the team ate from the beginning to the end of the night market, and it was very enjoyable.

After eating enough skewers, Tang Lin and the others found a sugar water shop, found one at the table outside the shop, ordered a few bowls of sugar water, and drank the sweet frozen sugar water while chatting.Tang Lin's bowl of mung bean sugar boiled soft, ice-cold, moderately sweet, very delicious.

When Tang Lin ate well, he would stir a couple of mouthfuls and feed it to Su Zhi.Su Zhi would also feed Tang Lin the wine glutinous rice balls in his bowl from time to time. Liang Ting, who was already used to eating dog food, silently raised his hand and ordered another bowl of sugar water. He had two bowls, and he treated it as someone feeding him .

When Tang Lin and the others were about to eat, an acquaintance they were all familiar with came from the Tangshui shop.

"Mr. Tang, Mr. Su, what a coincidence." A woman in her thirties was ordering sugar water with the boss with a child in her hand. When she looked back to find a seat, she caught a glimpse of Tang Lin and Su Zhi, and came over in great surprise. .

Tang Lin only remembered who was in front of him when he saw the child she was leading.At the time when he was taking the college entrance examination, Su Zhi rented a house in the town across from Li Lingbao and his mother.

"Come, sit here." Tang Lin directly invited them to sit down.

Li Lingbao looked at them with unfamiliar eyes, and kept shrinking behind his mother, watching them carefully.Li Lingbao's mother smiled and said, "My child just has a bad memory. When you left, you cried every day and wanted to play with you. Now it's good, I have completely forgotten about it."

After finishing speaking, Li Lingbao's mother hugged Li Lingbao in her arms, pointed at Tang Lin and Su Zhi and said, "Do you still remember these two elder brothers, who lived across from our house and bought you candy, you still go They have eaten at home."

Li Lingbao scratched his chubby face with his chubby hands, shook his head, and said softly, "I don't remember."

"It's okay, if you don't remember, you don't remember." Tang Lin said beside him.

Li Lingbao's mother probably felt a little sorry, and looked at them with embarrassment.Soon the boss brought up their sugar water, and Li Lingbao yelled when he saw how much they had eaten.Li Lingbao's mother didn't have time to talk to Tang Linsu Zhi and the others, so she had to make arrangements for Li Lingbao to eat.

Take good care of Li Lingbao, seeing him sitting on the stool with a bowl and eating well, Li Lingbao's mother had time to turn around and continue chatting with Tang Lin and Su Zhi.

"Are you also here to watch the entertainment competition?" She asked.

Su Zhi nodded.

Li Lingbao's mother said to herself, "Hey, we are too. His grandma passed away at the beginning of the year. Now I have nothing to do except take care of this little pudding. I wanted to come and join in the fun. His dad also went to sign up for the competition. Tomorrow afternoon."

Tang Lin and Su Zhi looked at each other. If it happened by chance, maybe Liang Ting would become rivals with Li Lingbao's father.

After Li Lingbao finished drinking the sugar water, Li Lingbao's mother asked the boss to pack two bowls of sugar water, greeted Tang Linsu and the others, and left.Tang Lin and the others could still see that after they walked for a while, they talked to a middle-aged man with an intimate look, and Li Lingbao even kissed him. It seemed that the man was Li Lingbao's father.

Tang Lin and the others thought this incident was an episode, and after wandering around the night market for a while, they went back to the hotel.Tang Lin and the others decided not to watch tomorrow morning's game, and went directly to watch Liang Ting's game in the afternoon.

Waking up the next day, Liang Ting consciously didn't knock on Tang Lin's door.Good time, some people always have to spend it in bed, women's bigwigs know it.

Tang Lin and Su Zhi, who had been rolling on the bed all morning, came out at noon on a rare occasion. Liang Ting thought that he could only go to the hotel to find something to eat by himself at noon.The three of them randomly chose a Chinese restaurant downstairs, ordered a few dishes to fill their stomachs, and then took a rest before driving to the competition venue.

Contestants had to enter half an hour in advance. Liang Ting was not in the first group in the afternoon, so he was not in a hurry.Tang Lin and Su Zhi couldn't follow into the players' waiting area, but this time they didn't choose to go to the coffee shop to watch the game, but got into the crowd and stood directly in the first row.

Liang Ting was Tang Lin's apprentice after all, and Tang Lin, as a master, still had to cheer him on.

The game in the afternoon began soon. The host said the same opening remarks as yesterday, and then came to the first group to play. Tang Lin watched these players cook with great interest. The topic was that the organizer randomly selected [-] dishes , and then let the players choose one of them to do, which is relatively simple.But some people are really interesting. A steamed egg can be made into a dark dish, but they don't seem to care about winning or losing. Instead, they seem to enjoy the joy of cooking and competition.

The first two groups quickly decided the winner. Liang Ting was in the third group, and finally stepped onto the stage following the host's introduction.Today, Liang Ting was still dressed as a woman. After he came out, Tang Lin seemed to hear the boos around him, and there were a few young men beside him pointing at him and muttering, saying something similar to accosting him.

After a long life, the female costume boss unconsciously flirted with Han again.

There was also a man in the team who looked very familiar. Tang Lin and Su Zhi quickly thought of Li Lingbao's father last night.Looking at his name, he should be right.Tang Lin took advantage of his height to go out of the crowd, and soon saw the back of Li Lingbao's mother holding Li Lingbao and pointing to the big screen to talk.

Li Lingbao's father was very thin, and seemed to be shorter than his wife. He had a regular appearance, and his hair was so fashionable that he tied it in a ponytail.He was wearing a white T-shirt and a black jacket. After the game started, he took off the jacket, and then everyone saw a family portrait of a family of three behind him.

This man still seems to be a madman who shows off his wife and shows off his son.

Tang Lin turned his gaze back to Liang Ting. At this time, Liang Ting had chosen a dish that he was good at among the [-] questions. Tang Lin had also cooked it before, and it was the favorite dish of the mother-in-law—— Fish-flavored shredded pork.

After Liang Ting finished choosing, Tang Lin found out that Li Lingbao's father also chose the fish-flavored shredded pork dish.After Liang Ting finished choosing the dishes, he just focused on choosing his own ingredients and didn't pay attention to this matter.

Li Lingbao's father chose similar ingredients to Liang Ting's, and the two walked up to their table one after the other.There are a few players between them. If the audience looks carefully, they will find that Li Lingbao and Liang Ting's techniques are very similar, but Li Lingbao is even more brilliant than Liang Ting.

Tang Lin frowned, "It seems that Li Lingbao's father is going to overwhelm Liang Ting."

If Liang Ting and Li Lingbao's father cook different dishes, maybe Liang Ting still has a chance to win, but now they have exactly the same dishes, and when others try the dishes, they will unknowingly put the two dishes together And judge.In this way, which dish is more inferior, its shortcomings will be infinitely magnified.

Originally thought that with Liang Ting's culinary skills, he should be able to survive the next few rounds, and maybe even go to the national competition, but today it seems that it is a bit difficult.I don't know if he can enter the candidate area. As long as there are votes from the audience who try dishes, maybe he can still win.

"Liang Ting is still too careless." Tang Lin shook his head.

If Liang Ting could see that his opponent and himself were making the same dish at this time, he could immediately change it and add some special sauces to it.For example, fish-flavored pork shreds can also be made into a dish called Sichuan-flavored fish-flavored pork shreds, which is a very clever way to gain an advantage for yourself.

Liang Ting finished the dishes very quickly, he was the first one in this group to finish.After Liang Ting finished, Li Lingbao's father also stopped in the next one.When the host read out the dishes made by Li Lingbao, Liang Ting realized that someone in the same group made the same dish as himself.

Liang Ting looked back and found that the dishes made by the other party seemed more attractive than his own?

Liang Ting's expression became slightly less relaxed.

There are five judges, all of whom are well-known philanthropists in Linshui City.They walked in front of ten contestants, and then tried a bite of the dish in front of each contestant with serving chopsticks.After eating, the judges discussed together for a while, and then told the host the name of the promoted person.

The host spoke passionately for a long time to set off the atmosphere, and then it was finally time to announce the names of the advanced contestants.

"The advanced contestant in this group is Dangdang, Li Anhua."

Liang Ting's face turned dark immediately, probably because he himself didn't expect that he would be eliminated in the first match.

"Is he all right?" Su Zhi looked at Liang Ting with some concern.

"It's not bad to suffer a little bit." Tang Lin said, "This time he was careless."

After the judges tasted it, it was the audience's turn to try it. A total of 20 people were drawn, and the 20 audiences lined up. After all the tastes were tasted, they could vote for the contestants in front of a sign and get the number of votes. The most contestants will enter the candidate area.

Tang Lin and Su Zhi kept looking at the number of votes that Liang Ting got behind. Liang Ting also looked a little nervous. It should be said that every contestant present was not nervous when passing here.

Seeing the final result, Tang Lin was relieved.Liang Ting captured the voting audience with his good food taste and outstanding appearance, and finally had a glimmer of hope to advance to the next round of competition.

Because of this unexpected result, Tang Lin and the others had to come to Linshui City again in half a month.Half a month later, Liang Ting had to compete with others again for the final round.

After the game, Liang Ting returned to the hotel in silence, locked himself in the room and did not come out for a whole bowl.Tang Lin and Su Zhi are not people who can comfort others, so they can only let him be quiet for a while.

In the early hours of the morning, Liang Ting, who finally regained his vitality, finally appeared in front of them, dragged Tang Linsu and they started eating supper.

After this incident, Liang Ting no longer cares about the competition, no matter whether the competition is big or small, and because of this, his future competition path will be much smoother.

The next day, the three of them bought tickets and flew back to Beijing. Tang Lin still opened his private restaurant, and Liang Ting consciously huddled in the kitchen to learn how to cook. Sometimes the dishes he made were not satisfactory. He will also have the cheek to ask Mr. Tang for advice.

Half a month later, the candidate competition was approaching in no time, Liang Ting was more cautious this time, and finally got the place to advance.Then the second month came, and Tang Lin accompanied Liang Ting to participate in several competitions one after another, all the way to the national finals of the entertainment competition.

Tang Lin also learned a lot along the way, and got some inspiration from some players' cooking techniques while watching the game.Not to mention Liang Ting, it was the first time for him to participate in such a grand competition. From the preliminaries all the way to the national finals, it can be said that he met all kinds of contestants, and his cooking skills became more and more proficient.

The National Finals entertainment competition was held in Beijing Province, and it was already the end of the year. After the entertainment competition, there were only two months before the second promotion match of the professional competition in Linshui Province.

There were a total of ten contestants in the national finals of the entertainment competition. Among the ten contestants, apart from Liang Ting, there was also a player Tang Lin knew, Li Anhua, who had won against Liang Ting in the qualifiers.

He was still wearing a T-shirt with a family portrait printed on it. When the host asked him about his family, this taciturn man was actually embarrassed.In the end, he said that it was his son's idea to let him wear this dress for the game.

Except for the qualifiers, the other promotion competitions were broadcasted through the program, Liang Ting also had a rather large fan group, and the proportion of this fan group was as much as [-]% male.As long as Liang Ting plays, the fans will shout excitedly, as if Liang Ting is one of those idol stars.

Tang Lin felt that this kind of fan power was really scary.But I have to say that Liang Ting is really popular. Sometimes when a customer comes to a private restaurant for dinner, he recognizes Liang Ting and asks for his autograph in excitement.

The competition rules of the national finals are very simple. After learning from the professional competition last year, the organizer directly proposed a topic, and then the contestants made it.

The title of this competition is "Colour".

The ten contestants have 10 minutes to think. After 10 minutes, the countdown will start. As soon as the countdown is over, the two-hour competition will start. This time period already includes the time for the contestants to choose ingredients.

Tang Lin and Su Zhi bought tickets to watch the competition. The competition venue was actually the venue for the National Professional Competition. Tang Lin and Su Zhi were no strangers to them.

After the 10-minute thinking time was over, Liang Ting and the other contestants raced to the ingredients area to pick out their favorite ingredients.

Liang Ting picked out flour, eggs, and some vegetables.Then he quickly returned to his desk and kneaded the dough first.It seems that what he intends to make is colorful noodles?

Tang Lin turned his attention to Li Anhua. He chose squid and some side dishes.He didn't solve the squid right away, but prepared the side dishes and seasoning first. The seasoning is homemade and skillful. The seasoning combination is also eye-catching, which makes people look forward to it.

Liang Ting's dough had already been kneaded and was being put aside to wake up.Then he took out carrots, spinach, pumpkin and other ingredients, diced and shredded them separately, and squeezed out cups of juices of different colors.

The dough with juices of different colors is divided into several pieces and shaped into noodles.Then Liang Ting started to make side dishes and seasonings.

At the same time, Li Anhua was also completing his work at a high speed. He had already dealt with the squid. It seemed that the squid was not the main ingredient?

The two hours ended quickly, and with the sound of the whistle, the players had to stop their movements.

Now, it's time for the judges to test dishes, so, among these ten contestants, who will win the national finals of the entertainment competition?
