[Comprehensive Entertainment] Reincarnation reality show
Chapter 124 Hell's Kitchen
Some people may wonder, would it be sloppy to let Gordon judge the players' scores alone?Everyone has different tastes and that's not necessarily fair.However, taste, like aesthetics, is private, and there is never absolute fairness.
As for Gordon, as one of the world's most expensive and well-known top chefs, he doesn't need to invite other people to be judges to improve his credibility like other reality shows.He is qualified to judge independently, he is the uncompromising leader of Hell's Kitchen, and even one of the biggest authorities in the culinary world.
As for occasionally inviting other guests to judge together, that's just a gimmick of the show.After all, Gordon was the only one talking about it from beginning to end, and some viewers didn't quite buy it.Parallel to respecting authority is often the overthrow of authority.
"Okay, Denisa and Justin, you go first." Gordon picked one from each of the men's and women's teams as the first round of judges.
Eli and Denisa are on good terms right now, but she's completely out of touch with the young, square-faced guy named Justin.
However, the other party is one of her opponents in Hell's Kitchen like everyone else, so Yili will also pay attention.
She will pay attention to everyone here, whether as a teammate or as an opponent.
"Dinisha, what did you do?" The two brought their plates to Gordon, who asked the female contestant first.
"This is French fried duck breast." Denisa opened the silver insulation cover and presented her dishes to the chef.
It was five finger-thick duck breasts, fried just right, and the meat was a delicious deep pink color. The faint smell of duck meat mixed with the delicate aroma of olive oil slowly penetrated into the mouths and noses of the people around. among.
Gordon nodded secretly, and gently turned the duck breasts with the knife and fork in his hand to check their degree of cooking—he would never eat them if they were not cooked, and checked the side dishes below.It was two green broccoli that had been fried and a piece of tender yellow squash that had been boiled.The broccoli didn't look too greasy, probably because it was specially drained, and the small pumpkin didn't look too rotten, it looked quite refreshing, showing a natural bright color, emerald green and warm orange are mouth-watering .
There is also a beautiful arc drawn with sauce on the side of the plate, which is a sauce that can be easily dipped and eaten by the eater. From the arc of the sauce, the skillful craftsmanship can be seen.
"I mainly use pepper as the spice, and the sauce on the side is made of sherry." Denisa introduced.
"Hmm." The chef was noncommittal, cut off a small piece of duck breast with a silver knife, dipped a fork in the caramel-colored sherry sauce on the side, and then put it into his mouth to chew gently. The duck breast was tender and soft. The taste, paired with a slightly sweet light sherry sauce without a hint of astringency, blends evenly in his mouth, "The duck breast is fried very well, it is also very suitable to choose sherry as the sauce, this sauce tastes Not too heavy to overwhelm the lightness of the duck breast. Definitely a four for this dish.”
"Thank you." Denisa thanked the chef with a smile—in Hell's Kitchen, four points is already a very good score, and five points is very rare. She is very satisfied with the result—this is the Brings her plate back and covers it again.
"Then Justin, what did you do?" Gordon looked at the brown-haired, brown-eyed male contestant next to him, and his habitual lip pursing gave a serious and nervous feeling.
"This is roasted partridge breast, partridge legs in oil confit, and pears in honey sauce." Justin opened his heat-retaining lid, brought out the plate, and placed it in front of the chef.He spoke very little, his voice didn't fluctuate, and he didn't promote his dishes much, but the dishes themselves were his best endorsement.
The chef changed the set of knives and forks, cut off a small piece as usual, dipped the fork in the soup on the side, and then put it in the mouth, then nodded slightly, "Very good. The meat is well processed, the gravy It blends well with pear juice, 4 points."
"Thank you." Justin nodded, took his plate back silently, closed the lid, and returned to their respective teams with Denisa—even at this time, his face was a poker face, as if Not the same as laughing.
"Okay, next one, Mira and Brandon." Gordon drank some water to let the taste in his mouth fade away before he called out the names of the next two people.
Mira is a fat player with brown hair and brown eyes.If Meg has the kind of slightly fat body that chefs often see, then Mira has a really big body. She looks two circles bigger than the average girl-fat players are also must-have players in every issue, usually male and female. This is the performance of the program group that they do not discriminate against fat people.This is true of many reality TV shows. In addition, black-skinned contestants must also be present, as well as contestants of other ethnicities. These are all to show a non-discriminatory stance.
Brandon is a young man with brown short-to-medium hair, and his hair is a bit naturally curly.When the chef called his name, there was an instantly endearing smile on his face - even a little slick.He stood up from the queue, carried the plates with Mira, and walked towards the chef.
Mira cooked a mixed seafood meal. The large pieces of fish were fried golden and had a strong smell of fat, and some fluffy bread was placed beside them.And these breads are not cut evenly, more like they were pulled by hand, and the edges are very rough.The chef's eyebrows twitched when he saw the fried fish and bread filling the big plate.
He cut off a small piece, bravely stuffed it into his mouth, and the next moment——
"Oh! God!" The contestants saw the chef spit directly into the trash can next to him, and their eyes widened in surprise—only in very bad situations, the chef would spit it out without chewing.This is definitely a red flag.
"It's too greasy, such a good fish was wasted." Gordon shook his head at Mira, "It looks like a home-cooked dish, it's not presented at all, it's not professional at all. Wait, you're a professional chef ?"
"Yes, I'm a private chef in Knoxville (a city in Tennessee)." Mira whispered.
"You behave very regrettable." Gordon shook his head at her, "I can only give you 1 point, and I sympathize with your boss."
"..." Mira nodded with an ugly face, and took the plate back.
Also for seafood, Brandon chose Alaskan king crab cakes with flounder, and he did quite well.Both presented a seafood-specific snow-white meat, which looked very refreshing, and the main side dish he chose was endive.The portions of his dishes are very small, occupying only a small space in the middle of the large plate, which looks very small and delicate, in stark contrast to Mira's large portions.If Mira's dishes look like fast-food fillings, Brandon's really does look like high-end dining at a top-notch restaurant—only in terms of visuals.
"The fish is well done." Gordon briefly tasted it and nodded, "I give it 3 points."
"Thank you." Compared with Mira's 1 point, 3 points is not so difficult to accept.Brandon happily accepted the score, and returned to their respective teams with Mira—at least he PK lost the opponent around him, which was enough for him to explain to the team, at least, he was not the one who dragged down the team.
"The women's team is two points behind." Gordon reminded.
"..." The female contestants immediately became nervous—they didn't want to be punished if they didn't want to compete in the first round!Thinking of the horrific punishments seen in previous episodes, the female contestants secretly hoped that they would turn defeat into victory next time.
After that, the contestants also brought up their dishes in twos.
Devin and Whitney scored 3 points each.
Erin got 4 points and Adam got 2 points.
The scores of the women's team and the men's team rose and fell, and slowly settled at 12:12.
"Wow, the scores are even." Gordon looked at the scores on both sides. "Let's see who can take the lead next."
"Meg, Josh, bring your dishes," said the chef.
"Meg, what did you do?" Gordon asked the two contestants opposite him.
"I made spaghetti in red wine sauce." Meg opened the thermal cover and brought her plate to the chef.
"Well..." Gordon rolled some noodles with a fork, dipped them in the sauce and chewed, before asking, "The seasoning is good, and the sauce is excellent. By the way, the pasta dough and red wine sauce are yours Did you do it?” The chef is not an idiot, on the contrary, he is very smart and has very sharp eyes. He can clearly see the small movements of the contestants from outside—even if the chef doesn’t pay attention, the ubiquitous cameras will record them. Everything, with few exceptions, and the program crew will prompt him.
"If there's dough and sauce over there, mine didn't work, so I used someone else's." Did the slightly chubby girl faintly feel uneasy, but the matter had already been done, so she could only bite the bullet and admit it.She didn't have the guts to lie to the chef.
"..." The chef frowned and fell silent.
"My God! Is she stupid?"
The women's team on the side also made a little commotion, but the men's team showed a smile.
Who doesn't know that off-the-shelf semi-finished products must never be used?What's more, she even used someone else's sauce?So what did she do herself?This idiot will kill them all!The female players thought bitterly.
The chef also had the same question. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then what do you [beep] do yourself?"
"..." Meg couldn't answer.She really wanted to say that she made the noodles by herself with a noodle making machine, and the taste was adjusted by herself, all of these were made by herself!However, no matter how dull she was, she understood that the chef didn't seem to like this kind of answer.So, she kept silent with a rare wink, but the hands behind her back twisted uncomfortably.
"Sorry, I can only give you 1 point." Gordon shook his head and said to her like this.
"Well." Meg nodded sullenly, and returned her plate.
"Then, Josh, what did you do?" Gordon asked, looking at the brunette male player who also seemed a little silent beside him.
"I made pan-roasted grouper." Josh, who had an inch long back, brought out the plate and introduced, "I used mushrooms, coprinus comatus and small tomatoes as side dishes, and parsley for flavor. "Different from Justin's poker face, Josh just has less expression. When he should say something, he is unequivocal, and there is absolutely no meaning of being coy or shy.However, his dishes are also worthy of his confidence.
In the middle of the plate, half a palm-sized grouper meat was placed on top of the side dishes, surrounded by some small tomatoes cut in half. The light brown soup dripped on the fish meat and dripped into the plate.The fresh fragrance of fish and the fragrance of parsley and grass gradually rise from the plate, giving people a natural and fresh feeling of sitting on the grass beach and smelling the sea breeze.
"Hmm..." The chef nodded slightly, cut a piece of fish, put it in his mouth, and felt the delicate and smooth taste of the fish when it was cooked to the best, matched with the slightly salty yet delicious soup Juice, very satisfied and gave a huge praise, "The taste of the fish is very good, and the seasoning is very natural, you can definitely get a 5 points."
"Thank you." Josh showed a thankful smile to the chef, and the other contestants were secretly startled - 5 points are very rare, at most one or two times in a challenge, in terms of cooking skills, this person is definitely their strongest opponent!
In a game where the full score is only five points, four points is definitely a huge gap-this almost determines the outcome!
When Meg and Josh returned to the team, Josh and his teammates fisted each other and laughed at each other, but on the women's team, almost no one wanted to talk to Meg who was dragging them down—if It's fine if it's simply not done well, but the problem is that she used semi-finished materials?Can't she watch past games? !Thinking of this, the female contestants couldn't forgive Meg!
"Leah..." Meg looked at Eli aggrievedly.
"..." Yili wanted to touch her forehead, but she really couldn't say anything for Meg at this time.
She didn't expect this situation, but at that time she couldn't refuse at all.If you refuse, there are two consequences. One is that Meg’s pasta is served directly without sauce——is this pasta edible?Or Meg used the canned sauce produced by the factory uniformly. If that was the case, she had to heat it up and cook it again. Not to mention that it was too late, even if it was in time, the chef would criticize her if she used the canned sauce.It can be said that Meg's mistakes are hopeless.
If Eli didn't agree then, Meg might complain about her after being criticized, so of course she could only agree.After all, she will still get along with each other in the future, so she can't get into a stalemate with each other.Moreover, the principle of the chef has always been to criticize the lazy, but not to name the borrowed materials.Yili won't be implicated by this, that's enough.
But, as far as Meg is concerned, she should have been prepared to be discovered by the chef when she made that request.With the ubiquitous cameras on the show, there is very little in the kitchen that goes unnoticed by the show crew and the head chef—sometimes, but the odds are really small.With Meg's current consequences, Yili could only sigh.
"Let's work harder on the dinner service tomorrow." In the end, Yili couldn't just leave Meg alone like this, and could only pat Meg on the shoulder, reluctantly comforting her.
Yili thought, maybe Meg is the kind who is not good at individual dishes, but better at assembly line service?In this case, she might be able to stay in the game for a long time and become her long-term teammate.
Since there is such a possibility, of course Yili will not anger Meg because of this - if it affects the performance of the dinner service, their team will become the losing team, and one of them will be eliminated because of this.This is too dangerous for the team, whether it is the shadow of failure, or the shadow of losing teammates.
"Thank you." Receiving Yili's implicit encouragement, Meg quietly breathed a sigh of relief—the feeling of being ignored is terrible.
On the other hand, the game is still going on.
After rounds of competition, the women's team struggled to recover the gap.
At this time, 7 people from both teams have compared, 2 people have not compared, the score of men and women is 22:21, it is not that the women's team has no chance of recovery!
"Leah, Xiao, come up." Gordon called out two more people.
"Yes, chef." Yili and the short, fat white man beside him immediately agreed. The two looked at each other, their eyes full of vigilance and determination, and then they each carried their plates and walked up to Gordon. .
"Leah, what did you do?" Gordon asked.
"This is pan-fried ribeye steak with Nebbiolo wine sauce." Yili opened the silver heat preservation cover and brought her dish to the chef.She didn't introduce too much, it sounded too much like self-promotion, and the chef didn't really like this kind of introduction, he likes concise and clear introductions.
The camera directly above the dining table immediately projects the dishes on the plate on the large screen next to it, which is convenient for the audience to watch, and these close-up shots of the food will also be used in the later editing, so that the audience can intuitively The appearance of the dishes can be seen clearly-for the audience who can only watch on the TV screen, but not taste it in person, this is their only judgment on the dishes.As for the chef's evaluation, it is the chef's own, not all viewers agree.
Therefore, the presentation of dishes is also very important.And Yili has a significant advantage in this aspect - she has experienced design competitions and model competitions, and she has a very unique understanding of color matching and modeling display.Even if the talent that was improved at that time has long since expired after the game, that experience and related aesthetic knowledge have been retained.
Yili knows what color can increase appetite, and what color and pattern match looks advanced.Fashion and food are different, even contradictory. Whoever prefers the appetite of the fashion circle is dead, but some beauty still has something in common.
When the audience saw the delicacies presented on the big screen, many people's throats couldn't help but move.
A half-palm-sized steak lies quietly on a large white porcelain plate, with a few tender sweet basil leaves on top, and the golden surface can faintly see the lines of the past, but the The white fat has already completely melted in the hot oil, mixed with the unique internal fat of ribeye steak, exuding a delicate grease luster from the inside to the outside, which makes people unable to move their eyes away.
The chef cuts the steak lightly with a silver knife - this is to check the doneness of the steak, overcooked and overcooked are points for deduction, but what is presented to him is a perfect medium-rare steak, deep on the outside and tender on the inside, thin A few drops of thin gravy dripped out along the incision, and the cut surface slowly slid down from dark red to pink...
This juicy scene is like a slow motion, firmly reflected in the hearts of every audience.
After the steak was cut open, several asparagus under it were also displayed. The verdant green color was as if it had just been cut off from a branch. Each one was exactly the same length, and the bamboo shoots were straight. There is a little oily shine, and the natural fragrance seems to come out.The roasted small tomatoes on the side are also just right, the skin is deliciously wrinkled, the stalks on the top have turned dark green, and a small mass of deep red, you can think of its sweet and sour without tasting it.
Green asparagus, small dark red tomatoes, and light yellow mashed potatoes with small black peppers, and three-color side dishes quietly adorn the side of the steak.The colors that were supposed to be contradictory and contradictory attracted more eyes and silently stimulated the audience's longing taste buds.
If the audience is just a visual enjoyment and cannot really get close to this delicacy, then the chef who faced this steak will undoubtedly feel more impact.The unique aroma of fat and gravy of rib eye steak - the filet is too thin, the sirloin is too fat, only the rib eye can have such an unparalleled aroma for meat eaters, the basil, known as the king of herbs, is mixed with cloves and The light natural aroma of mint, and the aroma of wine exuded from the mellow red wine sauce made of Nebbiolo in the cute white porcelain cup on the side, the three are naturally fused and converging in the air, forming a mouth-watering The wonderful aroma of saliva.
"Wow."
Gordon was also a little surprised, and couldn't help but nodded slightly approvingly—for a world-class top chef like him, it can be judged from the color and smell of the food that ordinary people may not even taste it with their own mouth. Something that can be tasted.
For example, even if he hasn't eaten it yet, he knows that it is definitely a successful dish. As long as the seasoning is okay, 3 points is guaranteed.As for whether you can get a precious full score, it depends on how good the seasoning can be - after all, this is food, and the taste is the most important thing.
Under the attention of the audience, the chef picked up the small cup of sauce on the side and poured the red wine sauce evenly on the surface of the steak—in fact, dipping is also possible, but pouring is undoubtedly a more classic and traditional way of eating .The burgundy sauce flowed out from the mouth of the cup, drawing a straight streamline, following the movement of the chef's arm, pouring every inch of the steak's surface.
The charred steak was immediately covered with a thin layer of red wine sauce. The chef cut off a small piece of steak and put it in the mouth together with a small piece of asparagus under the steak.
The audience's eyes stayed motionless on the chef's face, and as the chef chewed slightly, many audience members couldn't help but tuck their stomachs in order not to make their stomachs make indecent noises.However, the saliva in their mouths was secreted too quickly, so they still had to swallow hard to let themselves drool politely.
If the audience at the scene was still reserved, then after the show was broadcast, the audience in front of the TV was much more straightforward.Many people stared straight at the chef's gently shaking chewing muscles, as well as the remaining steak on the plate, and gnawed at the fried chicken or French fries in their hands...
——It looks delicious...
——I really want to eat it, can we share what the chef doesn’t finish? wxya
——Thinking that I will be dumped later, my heart hurts so much, I cover my little heart...
If brain waves can also be observed, then at this moment, the brain waves of the audience watching Hell's Kitchen must be very consistent!
I want to eat……
I want to eat……
I want to eat……
The audience in front of the TV was drooling and heartbroken, while the chef carefully tasted the perfect medium-rare rib-eye steak—the meat was so tender that it melted in the mouth, but it could be easily chewed; sufficient The gravy is full of cheeks, which is not only cooked properly, but also preheated the plate before serving, so that the meaty juice can flow out of the steak more fully; the slightly drunkenness of red wine sauce The sweetness of the steak is also properly matched with the basil powder marinated in the steak, which neutralizes the creaminess of the fat and makes every chew a taste bud enjoyment.
"The presentation is excellent, but..." the chef gasped.
Yili couldn't help but grabbed the hem of her clothes, her face was still calm, but she stared at the chef without blinking, which slightly exposed her nervousness - the beautiful presentation of the dishes will undoubtedly improve the taster's understanding of the food. The expectations are high, but the poor presentation is just the opposite.However, if the taste of the food does not meet the expectations of the taster, the former will undoubtedly be more disappointed.
Of course, it is impossible for Yili to act mediocre on purpose, this is her strength, and of course she must try her best to show it!Even if the expectation is raised by the beautiful presentation, if you can continue to meet this expectation, you will undoubtedly get a higher score!If you want to be the best, it is impossible not to pay any risk!
Looking at Xiaolu's nervous girl, Gordon couldn't help laughing, and continued, "But its taste is better than the presentation! The Italian style is just right, I will give you an absolute 5 points."
"Thank you!" Yili's eyes lit up immediately, and her heart quietly relaxed, but she remained calm on the face——Different from other reality shows, Hell's Kitchen selects chefs who can manage a kitchen, not ordinary chefs. Cook, being calm and steady is definitely more appreciated by Gordon than ecstatic and cursing.Although the latter can be appreciated by the camera, it is difficult to get to the end.Just like those contestants who are good at infighting, the program team may keep them in the competition for the sake of popularity and ratings, but in the last few rounds, these people who are only talkative and have little strength will definitely be purged go out!
--Very good!Full marks!
——I couldn't help getting nervous with her...
——That's right, now I finally breathed a sigh of relief, and it's the first time I feel that the chef is good or bad.
——Would Gordon have the heart to see the other party so nervous?
——Answered for Gordon: bear with it, enjoy it.
——…
The audience complained about Chef's usual panting, but still jumped for joy at the girl's high score.
It can be said that even though the competition has just started, Yili has already gathered a small group of fans because of her extraordinary looks and excellent cooking skills.There is no public rating for this round of competition, but there is no doubt that the program team will take into account the preferences of the audience when deciding on the shot.
As long as the audience expresses, they prefer to watch beautiful and handsome guys quietly and in a daze than watching ugly monsters swearing.Then, the program team will cut the scene to the latter without hesitation, even if the latter has no hot spots, but the ratings are everything!
After Yili, Xiao also opened his insulation cover.
"This is grilled pork chops with mushroom sauce, and the side dish is vegetable roots." Xiao introduced to the chef.
"Hmm." The chef nodded, cut it open as usual, and then frowned slightly - without tasting it, he could tell that this pork chop had been roasted for too long, and the meat was too dry, and pork is inherently It's easy to roast wood, but he tasted it anyway before saying, "Unfortunately, the meat is too dry. I can only give it a 3."
"Okay, thank you." The short and fat male contestant nodded, accepted the score, and returned with the plate.
After being criticized, the two returned to their respective teams. Gordon said to the two teams, "The women's team overtook by 1 point. Next, let's see if you can maintain this advantage." The latter sentence is obviously aimed at the female players. they said.
Soon, the last of the two teams, Julie and Sean, stepped forward.
"This is macaroni made of goat cheese and mozzarella." Julie, with deep eyeliner, introduced.
"Hmm." Gordon nodded, tasted Julie's dishes, and said with a sigh, "The taste is a bit too bland, I didn't taste the feeling of Italian pasta, it looks like [beep] Macaroni at a fast food restaurant, 2 points."
"Too plain?" Julie was taken aback, and couldn't help but blurt out—as the last contestant, she had the heaviest burden.She is extremely eager to get a high score so that she can prove herself to her teammates, but now she has a mediocre score.
"Yes." Gordon affirmed without hesitation.
"..." It was impossible for Julie to question the chef any more, so she could only return her plate depressed.
"Now the women's team is 3 points higher than the men's team." The chef looked at the last player, "Sean, if you can get 4 points, the men's team will win, otherwise..."
"I understand." The tough-looking young man with a ring of stubble nodded.
This is the chef's usual method. He adjusts the score during the game so that the score will not expand to the point of no return, otherwise the result will be no suspense.Most reality TV competitions do this.The men's team knows it, and so does the women's team.
"Tell me about your dishes." Gordon said to Sean.
"Okay, it's smoked cod, seasoned with chilli," said Sean. "I've added rosemary to it."
"Well..." Gordon cut open the cod, cut a small piece of fish, and tasted it, "Well, the fish is very delicate, not too old, not too raw, you cooked it very tasty, I want to give it to you... " Gordon paused.
Both the women's team and the men's team were heartbroken. The women's team secretly begged Gordon for a change, and the men's team hoped that Gordon would like Sean's dishes.
"4 points." Gordon smiled and nodded to Sean and the men's team, "Congratulations."
"Ahhhh!!! We won! We won!" Almost as soon as Gordon reported the score, the men's team put their shoulders on their shoulders and celebrated loudly. Sean also ran back quickly, and the others People hugged and clapped their hands, and laughed-what could be more satisfying than a victory?Of course there are rewards to hit the ground running!
"And the challenge prize this time is..." Gordon and the men's team calmed down a little before they said, "You will go to a top restaurant in Malibu to enjoy a seafood meal and enjoy the sights on Jeffrey's beach. Fantastic view."
"Malibu!" The men's team's eyes lit up!That is one of the most luxurious residential areas in the world!
"Yes, go change your clothes!" The chef waved to the men's team, "Go and enjoy your trip to Malibu!"
"Oh oh oh oh!!!" The men's team cheered and went to change their clothes.
"As for you..." Gordon smiled and looked at the female contestants, who couldn't help shaking.
The unwritten rules of Hell's Kitchen, the more rewarding the reward, the more painful the punishment...
"Ladies, you're going to have a miserable day." Gordon shook his head at the female contestants, "Right now, you're going to peel 50 pounds (about 22.6 kilograms) of shrimp and make more than 1000 pounds (453.6 kilograms) of mashed potatoes. It's a tough job."
"Oh my god!" Even before they started, the female contestants couldn't help but feel dizzy after hearing such a huge amount of tasks.Peeling shrimp is a meticulous job, and so is making mashed potatoes!The thought of being locked up in Hell's Kitchen next, working agonizingly while the men's team had a blast, made them want to gouge out the lowest-scoring idiots!
"Why are you still standing there? Hurry up!" The chef doesn't speak softly to losers, his tone is extremely severe!
"..." At this time, no winking person would express dissatisfaction in front of the chef, and everyone walked to the back kitchen in despair.
"By the way, Leah." When Yili was walking to work with the others, the chef suddenly stopped her.
"Yes, chef?" Yili turned her head and looked at the chef puzzled.
"Your pan-fried ribeye steak is very good, I am very impressed." Gordon showed her a rare smile, "Your team shames you, but you should be proud of yourself!"
"Thank you, Chef!" Yili immediately thanked the chef with a smile, and got the chef's nod in response.
It is an encouragement for any contestant to get the chef's affirmation when the team fails in the competition!
And, the chef's appreciation is also very useful!Throughout the show, the chefs are actually contestants with preferences!Yili was pleasantly surprised that she was one of the favorites!In the early stage of the competition, as long as she has the approval of the chef, even if she can't guarantee the final victory, she can at least go far—as long as her dinner service is not too bad!And what Yili is most confident about is actually her dinner service.After that, she will use her performance to get more recognition from the chef!
Ignoring the unpredictable looks of the others, Yili said goodbye to the chef calmly, and followed her team.
The chef's affirmation is ten thousand times more important than the jealousy of some teammates.
There is only one chef, but more than one teammate.
There are teammates who are blatantly jealous, and of course there are teammates who are open-minded.
No one is loved by everyone. When she is appreciated by the chef, she must face rejection from some of her teammates.
Eli already knew it.
She is willing to pay such a price.
As for Gordon, as one of the world's most expensive and well-known top chefs, he doesn't need to invite other people to be judges to improve his credibility like other reality shows.He is qualified to judge independently, he is the uncompromising leader of Hell's Kitchen, and even one of the biggest authorities in the culinary world.
As for occasionally inviting other guests to judge together, that's just a gimmick of the show.After all, Gordon was the only one talking about it from beginning to end, and some viewers didn't quite buy it.Parallel to respecting authority is often the overthrow of authority.
"Okay, Denisa and Justin, you go first." Gordon picked one from each of the men's and women's teams as the first round of judges.
Eli and Denisa are on good terms right now, but she's completely out of touch with the young, square-faced guy named Justin.
However, the other party is one of her opponents in Hell's Kitchen like everyone else, so Yili will also pay attention.
She will pay attention to everyone here, whether as a teammate or as an opponent.
"Dinisha, what did you do?" The two brought their plates to Gordon, who asked the female contestant first.
"This is French fried duck breast." Denisa opened the silver insulation cover and presented her dishes to the chef.
It was five finger-thick duck breasts, fried just right, and the meat was a delicious deep pink color. The faint smell of duck meat mixed with the delicate aroma of olive oil slowly penetrated into the mouths and noses of the people around. among.
Gordon nodded secretly, and gently turned the duck breasts with the knife and fork in his hand to check their degree of cooking—he would never eat them if they were not cooked, and checked the side dishes below.It was two green broccoli that had been fried and a piece of tender yellow squash that had been boiled.The broccoli didn't look too greasy, probably because it was specially drained, and the small pumpkin didn't look too rotten, it looked quite refreshing, showing a natural bright color, emerald green and warm orange are mouth-watering .
There is also a beautiful arc drawn with sauce on the side of the plate, which is a sauce that can be easily dipped and eaten by the eater. From the arc of the sauce, the skillful craftsmanship can be seen.
"I mainly use pepper as the spice, and the sauce on the side is made of sherry." Denisa introduced.
"Hmm." The chef was noncommittal, cut off a small piece of duck breast with a silver knife, dipped a fork in the caramel-colored sherry sauce on the side, and then put it into his mouth to chew gently. The duck breast was tender and soft. The taste, paired with a slightly sweet light sherry sauce without a hint of astringency, blends evenly in his mouth, "The duck breast is fried very well, it is also very suitable to choose sherry as the sauce, this sauce tastes Not too heavy to overwhelm the lightness of the duck breast. Definitely a four for this dish.”
"Thank you." Denisa thanked the chef with a smile—in Hell's Kitchen, four points is already a very good score, and five points is very rare. She is very satisfied with the result—this is the Brings her plate back and covers it again.
"Then Justin, what did you do?" Gordon looked at the brown-haired, brown-eyed male contestant next to him, and his habitual lip pursing gave a serious and nervous feeling.
"This is roasted partridge breast, partridge legs in oil confit, and pears in honey sauce." Justin opened his heat-retaining lid, brought out the plate, and placed it in front of the chef.He spoke very little, his voice didn't fluctuate, and he didn't promote his dishes much, but the dishes themselves were his best endorsement.
The chef changed the set of knives and forks, cut off a small piece as usual, dipped the fork in the soup on the side, and then put it in the mouth, then nodded slightly, "Very good. The meat is well processed, the gravy It blends well with pear juice, 4 points."
"Thank you." Justin nodded, took his plate back silently, closed the lid, and returned to their respective teams with Denisa—even at this time, his face was a poker face, as if Not the same as laughing.
"Okay, next one, Mira and Brandon." Gordon drank some water to let the taste in his mouth fade away before he called out the names of the next two people.
Mira is a fat player with brown hair and brown eyes.If Meg has the kind of slightly fat body that chefs often see, then Mira has a really big body. She looks two circles bigger than the average girl-fat players are also must-have players in every issue, usually male and female. This is the performance of the program group that they do not discriminate against fat people.This is true of many reality TV shows. In addition, black-skinned contestants must also be present, as well as contestants of other ethnicities. These are all to show a non-discriminatory stance.
Brandon is a young man with brown short-to-medium hair, and his hair is a bit naturally curly.When the chef called his name, there was an instantly endearing smile on his face - even a little slick.He stood up from the queue, carried the plates with Mira, and walked towards the chef.
Mira cooked a mixed seafood meal. The large pieces of fish were fried golden and had a strong smell of fat, and some fluffy bread was placed beside them.And these breads are not cut evenly, more like they were pulled by hand, and the edges are very rough.The chef's eyebrows twitched when he saw the fried fish and bread filling the big plate.
He cut off a small piece, bravely stuffed it into his mouth, and the next moment——
"Oh! God!" The contestants saw the chef spit directly into the trash can next to him, and their eyes widened in surprise—only in very bad situations, the chef would spit it out without chewing.This is definitely a red flag.
"It's too greasy, such a good fish was wasted." Gordon shook his head at Mira, "It looks like a home-cooked dish, it's not presented at all, it's not professional at all. Wait, you're a professional chef ?"
"Yes, I'm a private chef in Knoxville (a city in Tennessee)." Mira whispered.
"You behave very regrettable." Gordon shook his head at her, "I can only give you 1 point, and I sympathize with your boss."
"..." Mira nodded with an ugly face, and took the plate back.
Also for seafood, Brandon chose Alaskan king crab cakes with flounder, and he did quite well.Both presented a seafood-specific snow-white meat, which looked very refreshing, and the main side dish he chose was endive.The portions of his dishes are very small, occupying only a small space in the middle of the large plate, which looks very small and delicate, in stark contrast to Mira's large portions.If Mira's dishes look like fast-food fillings, Brandon's really does look like high-end dining at a top-notch restaurant—only in terms of visuals.
"The fish is well done." Gordon briefly tasted it and nodded, "I give it 3 points."
"Thank you." Compared with Mira's 1 point, 3 points is not so difficult to accept.Brandon happily accepted the score, and returned to their respective teams with Mira—at least he PK lost the opponent around him, which was enough for him to explain to the team, at least, he was not the one who dragged down the team.
"The women's team is two points behind." Gordon reminded.
"..." The female contestants immediately became nervous—they didn't want to be punished if they didn't want to compete in the first round!Thinking of the horrific punishments seen in previous episodes, the female contestants secretly hoped that they would turn defeat into victory next time.
After that, the contestants also brought up their dishes in twos.
Devin and Whitney scored 3 points each.
Erin got 4 points and Adam got 2 points.
The scores of the women's team and the men's team rose and fell, and slowly settled at 12:12.
"Wow, the scores are even." Gordon looked at the scores on both sides. "Let's see who can take the lead next."
"Meg, Josh, bring your dishes," said the chef.
"Meg, what did you do?" Gordon asked the two contestants opposite him.
"I made spaghetti in red wine sauce." Meg opened the thermal cover and brought her plate to the chef.
"Well..." Gordon rolled some noodles with a fork, dipped them in the sauce and chewed, before asking, "The seasoning is good, and the sauce is excellent. By the way, the pasta dough and red wine sauce are yours Did you do it?” The chef is not an idiot, on the contrary, he is very smart and has very sharp eyes. He can clearly see the small movements of the contestants from outside—even if the chef doesn’t pay attention, the ubiquitous cameras will record them. Everything, with few exceptions, and the program crew will prompt him.
"If there's dough and sauce over there, mine didn't work, so I used someone else's." Did the slightly chubby girl faintly feel uneasy, but the matter had already been done, so she could only bite the bullet and admit it.She didn't have the guts to lie to the chef.
"..." The chef frowned and fell silent.
"My God! Is she stupid?"
The women's team on the side also made a little commotion, but the men's team showed a smile.
Who doesn't know that off-the-shelf semi-finished products must never be used?What's more, she even used someone else's sauce?So what did she do herself?This idiot will kill them all!The female players thought bitterly.
The chef also had the same question. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then what do you [beep] do yourself?"
"..." Meg couldn't answer.She really wanted to say that she made the noodles by herself with a noodle making machine, and the taste was adjusted by herself, all of these were made by herself!However, no matter how dull she was, she understood that the chef didn't seem to like this kind of answer.So, she kept silent with a rare wink, but the hands behind her back twisted uncomfortably.
"Sorry, I can only give you 1 point." Gordon shook his head and said to her like this.
"Well." Meg nodded sullenly, and returned her plate.
"Then, Josh, what did you do?" Gordon asked, looking at the brunette male player who also seemed a little silent beside him.
"I made pan-roasted grouper." Josh, who had an inch long back, brought out the plate and introduced, "I used mushrooms, coprinus comatus and small tomatoes as side dishes, and parsley for flavor. "Different from Justin's poker face, Josh just has less expression. When he should say something, he is unequivocal, and there is absolutely no meaning of being coy or shy.However, his dishes are also worthy of his confidence.
In the middle of the plate, half a palm-sized grouper meat was placed on top of the side dishes, surrounded by some small tomatoes cut in half. The light brown soup dripped on the fish meat and dripped into the plate.The fresh fragrance of fish and the fragrance of parsley and grass gradually rise from the plate, giving people a natural and fresh feeling of sitting on the grass beach and smelling the sea breeze.
"Hmm..." The chef nodded slightly, cut a piece of fish, put it in his mouth, and felt the delicate and smooth taste of the fish when it was cooked to the best, matched with the slightly salty yet delicious soup Juice, very satisfied and gave a huge praise, "The taste of the fish is very good, and the seasoning is very natural, you can definitely get a 5 points."
"Thank you." Josh showed a thankful smile to the chef, and the other contestants were secretly startled - 5 points are very rare, at most one or two times in a challenge, in terms of cooking skills, this person is definitely their strongest opponent!
In a game where the full score is only five points, four points is definitely a huge gap-this almost determines the outcome!
When Meg and Josh returned to the team, Josh and his teammates fisted each other and laughed at each other, but on the women's team, almost no one wanted to talk to Meg who was dragging them down—if It's fine if it's simply not done well, but the problem is that she used semi-finished materials?Can't she watch past games? !Thinking of this, the female contestants couldn't forgive Meg!
"Leah..." Meg looked at Eli aggrievedly.
"..." Yili wanted to touch her forehead, but she really couldn't say anything for Meg at this time.
She didn't expect this situation, but at that time she couldn't refuse at all.If you refuse, there are two consequences. One is that Meg’s pasta is served directly without sauce——is this pasta edible?Or Meg used the canned sauce produced by the factory uniformly. If that was the case, she had to heat it up and cook it again. Not to mention that it was too late, even if it was in time, the chef would criticize her if she used the canned sauce.It can be said that Meg's mistakes are hopeless.
If Eli didn't agree then, Meg might complain about her after being criticized, so of course she could only agree.After all, she will still get along with each other in the future, so she can't get into a stalemate with each other.Moreover, the principle of the chef has always been to criticize the lazy, but not to name the borrowed materials.Yili won't be implicated by this, that's enough.
But, as far as Meg is concerned, she should have been prepared to be discovered by the chef when she made that request.With the ubiquitous cameras on the show, there is very little in the kitchen that goes unnoticed by the show crew and the head chef—sometimes, but the odds are really small.With Meg's current consequences, Yili could only sigh.
"Let's work harder on the dinner service tomorrow." In the end, Yili couldn't just leave Meg alone like this, and could only pat Meg on the shoulder, reluctantly comforting her.
Yili thought, maybe Meg is the kind who is not good at individual dishes, but better at assembly line service?In this case, she might be able to stay in the game for a long time and become her long-term teammate.
Since there is such a possibility, of course Yili will not anger Meg because of this - if it affects the performance of the dinner service, their team will become the losing team, and one of them will be eliminated because of this.This is too dangerous for the team, whether it is the shadow of failure, or the shadow of losing teammates.
"Thank you." Receiving Yili's implicit encouragement, Meg quietly breathed a sigh of relief—the feeling of being ignored is terrible.
On the other hand, the game is still going on.
After rounds of competition, the women's team struggled to recover the gap.
At this time, 7 people from both teams have compared, 2 people have not compared, the score of men and women is 22:21, it is not that the women's team has no chance of recovery!
"Leah, Xiao, come up." Gordon called out two more people.
"Yes, chef." Yili and the short, fat white man beside him immediately agreed. The two looked at each other, their eyes full of vigilance and determination, and then they each carried their plates and walked up to Gordon. .
"Leah, what did you do?" Gordon asked.
"This is pan-fried ribeye steak with Nebbiolo wine sauce." Yili opened the silver heat preservation cover and brought her dish to the chef.She didn't introduce too much, it sounded too much like self-promotion, and the chef didn't really like this kind of introduction, he likes concise and clear introductions.
The camera directly above the dining table immediately projects the dishes on the plate on the large screen next to it, which is convenient for the audience to watch, and these close-up shots of the food will also be used in the later editing, so that the audience can intuitively The appearance of the dishes can be seen clearly-for the audience who can only watch on the TV screen, but not taste it in person, this is their only judgment on the dishes.As for the chef's evaluation, it is the chef's own, not all viewers agree.
Therefore, the presentation of dishes is also very important.And Yili has a significant advantage in this aspect - she has experienced design competitions and model competitions, and she has a very unique understanding of color matching and modeling display.Even if the talent that was improved at that time has long since expired after the game, that experience and related aesthetic knowledge have been retained.
Yili knows what color can increase appetite, and what color and pattern match looks advanced.Fashion and food are different, even contradictory. Whoever prefers the appetite of the fashion circle is dead, but some beauty still has something in common.
When the audience saw the delicacies presented on the big screen, many people's throats couldn't help but move.
A half-palm-sized steak lies quietly on a large white porcelain plate, with a few tender sweet basil leaves on top, and the golden surface can faintly see the lines of the past, but the The white fat has already completely melted in the hot oil, mixed with the unique internal fat of ribeye steak, exuding a delicate grease luster from the inside to the outside, which makes people unable to move their eyes away.
The chef cuts the steak lightly with a silver knife - this is to check the doneness of the steak, overcooked and overcooked are points for deduction, but what is presented to him is a perfect medium-rare steak, deep on the outside and tender on the inside, thin A few drops of thin gravy dripped out along the incision, and the cut surface slowly slid down from dark red to pink...
This juicy scene is like a slow motion, firmly reflected in the hearts of every audience.
After the steak was cut open, several asparagus under it were also displayed. The verdant green color was as if it had just been cut off from a branch. Each one was exactly the same length, and the bamboo shoots were straight. There is a little oily shine, and the natural fragrance seems to come out.The roasted small tomatoes on the side are also just right, the skin is deliciously wrinkled, the stalks on the top have turned dark green, and a small mass of deep red, you can think of its sweet and sour without tasting it.
Green asparagus, small dark red tomatoes, and light yellow mashed potatoes with small black peppers, and three-color side dishes quietly adorn the side of the steak.The colors that were supposed to be contradictory and contradictory attracted more eyes and silently stimulated the audience's longing taste buds.
If the audience is just a visual enjoyment and cannot really get close to this delicacy, then the chef who faced this steak will undoubtedly feel more impact.The unique aroma of fat and gravy of rib eye steak - the filet is too thin, the sirloin is too fat, only the rib eye can have such an unparalleled aroma for meat eaters, the basil, known as the king of herbs, is mixed with cloves and The light natural aroma of mint, and the aroma of wine exuded from the mellow red wine sauce made of Nebbiolo in the cute white porcelain cup on the side, the three are naturally fused and converging in the air, forming a mouth-watering The wonderful aroma of saliva.
"Wow."
Gordon was also a little surprised, and couldn't help but nodded slightly approvingly—for a world-class top chef like him, it can be judged from the color and smell of the food that ordinary people may not even taste it with their own mouth. Something that can be tasted.
For example, even if he hasn't eaten it yet, he knows that it is definitely a successful dish. As long as the seasoning is okay, 3 points is guaranteed.As for whether you can get a precious full score, it depends on how good the seasoning can be - after all, this is food, and the taste is the most important thing.
Under the attention of the audience, the chef picked up the small cup of sauce on the side and poured the red wine sauce evenly on the surface of the steak—in fact, dipping is also possible, but pouring is undoubtedly a more classic and traditional way of eating .The burgundy sauce flowed out from the mouth of the cup, drawing a straight streamline, following the movement of the chef's arm, pouring every inch of the steak's surface.
The charred steak was immediately covered with a thin layer of red wine sauce. The chef cut off a small piece of steak and put it in the mouth together with a small piece of asparagus under the steak.
The audience's eyes stayed motionless on the chef's face, and as the chef chewed slightly, many audience members couldn't help but tuck their stomachs in order not to make their stomachs make indecent noises.However, the saliva in their mouths was secreted too quickly, so they still had to swallow hard to let themselves drool politely.
If the audience at the scene was still reserved, then after the show was broadcast, the audience in front of the TV was much more straightforward.Many people stared straight at the chef's gently shaking chewing muscles, as well as the remaining steak on the plate, and gnawed at the fried chicken or French fries in their hands...
——It looks delicious...
——I really want to eat it, can we share what the chef doesn’t finish? wxya
——Thinking that I will be dumped later, my heart hurts so much, I cover my little heart...
If brain waves can also be observed, then at this moment, the brain waves of the audience watching Hell's Kitchen must be very consistent!
I want to eat……
I want to eat……
I want to eat……
The audience in front of the TV was drooling and heartbroken, while the chef carefully tasted the perfect medium-rare rib-eye steak—the meat was so tender that it melted in the mouth, but it could be easily chewed; sufficient The gravy is full of cheeks, which is not only cooked properly, but also preheated the plate before serving, so that the meaty juice can flow out of the steak more fully; the slightly drunkenness of red wine sauce The sweetness of the steak is also properly matched with the basil powder marinated in the steak, which neutralizes the creaminess of the fat and makes every chew a taste bud enjoyment.
"The presentation is excellent, but..." the chef gasped.
Yili couldn't help but grabbed the hem of her clothes, her face was still calm, but she stared at the chef without blinking, which slightly exposed her nervousness - the beautiful presentation of the dishes will undoubtedly improve the taster's understanding of the food. The expectations are high, but the poor presentation is just the opposite.However, if the taste of the food does not meet the expectations of the taster, the former will undoubtedly be more disappointed.
Of course, it is impossible for Yili to act mediocre on purpose, this is her strength, and of course she must try her best to show it!Even if the expectation is raised by the beautiful presentation, if you can continue to meet this expectation, you will undoubtedly get a higher score!If you want to be the best, it is impossible not to pay any risk!
Looking at Xiaolu's nervous girl, Gordon couldn't help laughing, and continued, "But its taste is better than the presentation! The Italian style is just right, I will give you an absolute 5 points."
"Thank you!" Yili's eyes lit up immediately, and her heart quietly relaxed, but she remained calm on the face——Different from other reality shows, Hell's Kitchen selects chefs who can manage a kitchen, not ordinary chefs. Cook, being calm and steady is definitely more appreciated by Gordon than ecstatic and cursing.Although the latter can be appreciated by the camera, it is difficult to get to the end.Just like those contestants who are good at infighting, the program team may keep them in the competition for the sake of popularity and ratings, but in the last few rounds, these people who are only talkative and have little strength will definitely be purged go out!
--Very good!Full marks!
——I couldn't help getting nervous with her...
——That's right, now I finally breathed a sigh of relief, and it's the first time I feel that the chef is good or bad.
——Would Gordon have the heart to see the other party so nervous?
——Answered for Gordon: bear with it, enjoy it.
——…
The audience complained about Chef's usual panting, but still jumped for joy at the girl's high score.
It can be said that even though the competition has just started, Yili has already gathered a small group of fans because of her extraordinary looks and excellent cooking skills.There is no public rating for this round of competition, but there is no doubt that the program team will take into account the preferences of the audience when deciding on the shot.
As long as the audience expresses, they prefer to watch beautiful and handsome guys quietly and in a daze than watching ugly monsters swearing.Then, the program team will cut the scene to the latter without hesitation, even if the latter has no hot spots, but the ratings are everything!
After Yili, Xiao also opened his insulation cover.
"This is grilled pork chops with mushroom sauce, and the side dish is vegetable roots." Xiao introduced to the chef.
"Hmm." The chef nodded, cut it open as usual, and then frowned slightly - without tasting it, he could tell that this pork chop had been roasted for too long, and the meat was too dry, and pork is inherently It's easy to roast wood, but he tasted it anyway before saying, "Unfortunately, the meat is too dry. I can only give it a 3."
"Okay, thank you." The short and fat male contestant nodded, accepted the score, and returned with the plate.
After being criticized, the two returned to their respective teams. Gordon said to the two teams, "The women's team overtook by 1 point. Next, let's see if you can maintain this advantage." The latter sentence is obviously aimed at the female players. they said.
Soon, the last of the two teams, Julie and Sean, stepped forward.
"This is macaroni made of goat cheese and mozzarella." Julie, with deep eyeliner, introduced.
"Hmm." Gordon nodded, tasted Julie's dishes, and said with a sigh, "The taste is a bit too bland, I didn't taste the feeling of Italian pasta, it looks like [beep] Macaroni at a fast food restaurant, 2 points."
"Too plain?" Julie was taken aback, and couldn't help but blurt out—as the last contestant, she had the heaviest burden.She is extremely eager to get a high score so that she can prove herself to her teammates, but now she has a mediocre score.
"Yes." Gordon affirmed without hesitation.
"..." It was impossible for Julie to question the chef any more, so she could only return her plate depressed.
"Now the women's team is 3 points higher than the men's team." The chef looked at the last player, "Sean, if you can get 4 points, the men's team will win, otherwise..."
"I understand." The tough-looking young man with a ring of stubble nodded.
This is the chef's usual method. He adjusts the score during the game so that the score will not expand to the point of no return, otherwise the result will be no suspense.Most reality TV competitions do this.The men's team knows it, and so does the women's team.
"Tell me about your dishes." Gordon said to Sean.
"Okay, it's smoked cod, seasoned with chilli," said Sean. "I've added rosemary to it."
"Well..." Gordon cut open the cod, cut a small piece of fish, and tasted it, "Well, the fish is very delicate, not too old, not too raw, you cooked it very tasty, I want to give it to you... " Gordon paused.
Both the women's team and the men's team were heartbroken. The women's team secretly begged Gordon for a change, and the men's team hoped that Gordon would like Sean's dishes.
"4 points." Gordon smiled and nodded to Sean and the men's team, "Congratulations."
"Ahhhh!!! We won! We won!" Almost as soon as Gordon reported the score, the men's team put their shoulders on their shoulders and celebrated loudly. Sean also ran back quickly, and the others People hugged and clapped their hands, and laughed-what could be more satisfying than a victory?Of course there are rewards to hit the ground running!
"And the challenge prize this time is..." Gordon and the men's team calmed down a little before they said, "You will go to a top restaurant in Malibu to enjoy a seafood meal and enjoy the sights on Jeffrey's beach. Fantastic view."
"Malibu!" The men's team's eyes lit up!That is one of the most luxurious residential areas in the world!
"Yes, go change your clothes!" The chef waved to the men's team, "Go and enjoy your trip to Malibu!"
"Oh oh oh oh!!!" The men's team cheered and went to change their clothes.
"As for you..." Gordon smiled and looked at the female contestants, who couldn't help shaking.
The unwritten rules of Hell's Kitchen, the more rewarding the reward, the more painful the punishment...
"Ladies, you're going to have a miserable day." Gordon shook his head at the female contestants, "Right now, you're going to peel 50 pounds (about 22.6 kilograms) of shrimp and make more than 1000 pounds (453.6 kilograms) of mashed potatoes. It's a tough job."
"Oh my god!" Even before they started, the female contestants couldn't help but feel dizzy after hearing such a huge amount of tasks.Peeling shrimp is a meticulous job, and so is making mashed potatoes!The thought of being locked up in Hell's Kitchen next, working agonizingly while the men's team had a blast, made them want to gouge out the lowest-scoring idiots!
"Why are you still standing there? Hurry up!" The chef doesn't speak softly to losers, his tone is extremely severe!
"..." At this time, no winking person would express dissatisfaction in front of the chef, and everyone walked to the back kitchen in despair.
"By the way, Leah." When Yili was walking to work with the others, the chef suddenly stopped her.
"Yes, chef?" Yili turned her head and looked at the chef puzzled.
"Your pan-fried ribeye steak is very good, I am very impressed." Gordon showed her a rare smile, "Your team shames you, but you should be proud of yourself!"
"Thank you, Chef!" Yili immediately thanked the chef with a smile, and got the chef's nod in response.
It is an encouragement for any contestant to get the chef's affirmation when the team fails in the competition!
And, the chef's appreciation is also very useful!Throughout the show, the chefs are actually contestants with preferences!Yili was pleasantly surprised that she was one of the favorites!In the early stage of the competition, as long as she has the approval of the chef, even if she can't guarantee the final victory, she can at least go far—as long as her dinner service is not too bad!And what Yili is most confident about is actually her dinner service.After that, she will use her performance to get more recognition from the chef!
Ignoring the unpredictable looks of the others, Yili said goodbye to the chef calmly, and followed her team.
The chef's affirmation is ten thousand times more important than the jealousy of some teammates.
There is only one chef, but more than one teammate.
There are teammates who are blatantly jealous, and of course there are teammates who are open-minded.
No one is loved by everyone. When she is appreciated by the chef, she must face rejection from some of her teammates.
Eli already knew it.
She is willing to pay such a price.
