Chapter 4 (1/2)
He has a face that makes people unable to look away
His features seemed like they were carved with utance Whether it was the height of his brow bone or the curves of the corners of his eyes, they were all perfectly placed
And his eyes were black as obsidian, which you knew couldn’t see, but yet had a profound deepness
All anyone had to do was have his eyes in sight and you’d have the illusion of being seen through
“That, Mr Jiang…… our chef will be serving his signature dishes successively, I hope you’d taste the dishes and offer your professional opinion”
Jiang Qian Fan turned his head slightly and spoke to the special assistant at the side: “Li Yan, describe the dining environ Hua Restaurant”
Li Yan leaned slightly towards Jiang Qian Fan, using an objective tone described: “The décor of the restaurant is of a traditional style that is si Dynasty All the tables and chairs arewater that contributes to the as for decorations The floors are neat and clean, the tables have no dust and are not oily The waiters here compared to other restaurants see ”
“The serving speed of the dishes?” Jiang Qian Fan’s voice had no fluctuations, which made it impossible to discern whether he was satisfied or not with the description that Li Yan had given
“When we passed the lobby, two thirds of the visitors were already served their main dishes The other tables had at least appetisers on their tables”
“PourQian Fan said faintly
Chairo forward, but assistant Li Yan shook his hands at Chairot up, touched the teapot to test the te Qian Fan
The way he lifted the teapot was that of well-practiced skilful movements, when the tea filled two thirds of the teacup he lifted the teapot away, not a drop was spilled
Jiang Qian Fan took a sip of the tea
As dish after dish was being served, Chairreat detail, every dish’s origins, and the specifics of the process ofthe dishes
And as for each dish, Jiang Qian Fan would take only a single mouth
His cheere leisurely slow, every sould make other people nervously sith him
Everyone helplessly looked at hiive at least a phrase of comment, for example ‘tasty’ or ‘not tasty’
Until the sea cucumber soup was sent to the front of him
Chairman Zhao wanted to add on some comments, but Li Yan shook his head at him
“Chair has a taste, he would knohich ingredients were used, the , and the abilities of the chef”
“…… oh, no wonder all the industry insiders say that Mr Jiang possesses an ‘absolute palate’! So that’s how it is ah!”
Jiang Qian Fan scooped up a spoonful of sea cucu it cool
Not even a second later, he lifted up the teacup and spit the soup out
“What… What’s thewith the soup?” Chairman Zhao anxiously stood up
The whole entourage were also very nervous
“If this were uests”
“What?” Chairrily, “”Who cooked this soup? Call that person here!”
In less than threeonto his hat rushed anxiously in
Chaire accused without explanation: “So it’s you ah! Li De Xin! Your teacher still said you were a good seedling, wantedHua restaurant! Is this how you repay , you dare let Mr Jiang unable to s the soup!”
The chef named Li De Xin was completely frozen on the spot
“From this moment on, you have been fired!”
Li De Xin gripped his fist, like he wanted to explain so, but in the end he sed his words
Right when he was about to take off his hat, the Jiang Qian Fan who had been silent spoke
The slightly cool voice circulated leisurely around the room like cold red wine
“Your name is Li De Xin?”
“Yes, Mr Jiang”
“Through this sea cucumber soup dish, you have exemplified your ability to balance flavours and your ability to grasp control of the fire has reached the point of professional perfection Your culinary skills are excellent, but there are flaws that no ood a chef is, they would be unable to cover up To be able to use inferior ingredients, to raise the soup’s texture and taste up to this kind of standard, it’s very rare”
“Mr Jiang? You mean……” Chair Qian Fan’s words towards Li De Xin, even to the point of …… praise?
“Chaireredient used, the beef, mutton and duck are not the freshest Of course, the poorest, most inferior quality is still this sea cucumber, after it has been air flown to your restaurant, the eration was not used All these problems, are definitely not allowed in ement are different So, we are also not the best suited business partners”
Chairman Zhao was totally stunned silly
Lang Hua Restaurant has had such an outstanding reputation, countless people coredients, there would be too much pressure, additionally in consideration of the costs, some compromise had to be made
But chair Qian Fan could actually taste these out? Isn’t this being too picky?
