Cooking score: 7/10

It wasn’t bad Taking into account that it was ood score But for Kaya to have helped him on this dish, it was an ordinary score But the dish wasn’t coras wasn’t cooked

Jo Minjoon tasted the puré The sweet and sour flavors unique of the white grape stiue And as felt at the end was the flavor of the deet sick of it

Jo Minjoon turned to look at Kaya

“Shall we place the puré in the plate first?”

“Yes That would be good”

Jo Minjoon picked a rectangular plate Then he poured the puré in a round shape He didn’t forget what Alan had told hi So he wanted to show that

Jo Minjoon dropped three drops of puré in a zigzag shape Then he pushed the puré to the empty spaces of the dish with the bottolance, it looked like three lines were drawn The top and bottoht, and the ht that it would be quite good if he placed the three pieces of foie gras for the judges Jo Minjoon looked back again at Kaya Kaya’s eyes were more serious than ever It was at that ti his mouth

“Kaya…”

“Time is over! This is the last shi+ft! Quickly finish your dishes!”

Even before Jo Minjoon could say soether with Alan’s voice sounded Kaya stood in front of the countertop with a frozen expression And then, took the foie gras

Foie gras, at first glance, looked like chicken breast that was boiled down in beer The yellowy brown exterior wasn’t as sht

Kaya touched the exterior of the foie gras slightly It was soft And when she sliced it, that sensation didn’t change The foie gras, which interior ell thawed, sliced as well as pudding

Kaya started to slice the foie gras It had the shape of a narrow and thick coluras was a dish which you had to accuoose’s liver Also it released abundant oil and the ah to fill the pan

When one side of it got seared enough, Kaya flipped the foie gras Then tilted the pan The foie gras started to tilt to one side, and the oil started to gather in one place Then, Kaya used that oil to pour it on the foie gras It was the arroser ht of the oil sizzling and boiling was really pleasing to see The thick aroma that could be felt wasn’t nowhere near what they re that you could mistake the meat for spices Jo Minjoon tried to connect the aro in his mind But he couldn’t do so It was at the point that there was al that could be coras on top of the white grape puré And on top of that was placed the thinly sliced white grapes as decoration And at that moment, an uncontainable sras steak hite grape puré]

Cooking score: 8/10

8 points The dish that was half ot an 8 It meant that it could be presented in a Michelin restaurant i at that joyful expression, Kaya couldn’t help but frown

“What? Why that expression?”

“The food, I think it’s made well”

“What are you? A food beethoven? To knoithout eating it?”

Kaya grumbled like that, but her expression wasn’t bad She too probably knew That the dish was a success Hoould she be called a chef if she didn’t knoell her dish was cooked?

The last buzzer rang And Joseph opened his mouth

“Time is over Everybody, put your hands off the countertop”

It was a quiet voice, but that weight was heavy Jo Minjoon slightly glanced at his surroundings They had mostly finished their dishes Except for one tearas was fried, but the problem wasn’t that it was seared, it was burnt It was as if they didn’t have hope in their dishes, but their expressions were dark What were they going to do about it? If they made a 3 points dish Even if it was an a that shouldn’t even be presented in a dish

The rest were all 5 points, excluding Anderson’s Jo Minjoon thought that Anderson’s tea to be an 8, but unexpectedly it was only 7 points

‘They also ically, you could only cook it as steak Because paté or ras You wouldn’t know if it was a ood to do so in a foie gras themed mission

Actually, there were 3 teams out of 5 that had chosen toAnderson’s and Kaya’s tea the steak

The judges walked towards the tea at the dish, and left the countertop without any word At that cold sight, Jo Minjoon couldn’t help but get chills down his spine

The next table the judges went to was Anderson’s It was foie gras steak accompanied with balsamic reduction that eet and sour at the saood Alan opened his mouth first

“It’s fine”

“It’s qualitative and clean”

“Anderson With this dish we could confirht properly how to cook”

“Carlos, it’s good that you adjusted yourself with Anderson’s recipe and cooking methods But I wonder if your individual asn’t shown properly Even so, this dish was delicious I’ll believe in your consideration Go to the 2nd floor!”

Going to the 2nd floor meant that you have passed The evaluation ended like that with Carlos’s cheer and Anderson’s ses expressions was bright was only in front of Anderson’s dish For the next two tables, the judges only spat malicious words at them

“What did you cook?”

“I tried to uette”

“Paté? This is paté? damn, Louis Just say that this is ry Look at this texture The feeling the paté givesand at the sae But what is this? It’s a flavor which I would rather like to eat mustard”
