Chapter 111 - Chapter 111: Reunion in Front of the Doors (2) (1/2)
Jo Minjoon didn’t like crawfish More specifically, he didn’t dislike the flavor, but how it looked because it looked like an insect That’s hen peeling off the shell of the tail of the half-cooked langostino, the Norway lobster, his hands couldn’t be fast Joanne looked at him and smirked
“You are quite the scaredy cat?”
“……It’s a bit disgusting”
“What disgusting? Look how cute it is”
Joanne raised the sautéed langostino with a calm face Then, she peeled off the shell with skillful movements, and took out the meat
“See? It’s this easy”
“……I know”
“Get accustomed to it quickly before the finals”
At Joanne’s words, Jo Minjoon let out a sigh for a moment and started to handle it with deter out theit, it was the tiredients And that was the reason Jo Minjoon got in charge of the langostino, which he didn’t even like Because there were e the flavor, just like purée, foam, etc
Sauce It wasn’t only one kind of it In the sauce field like carrot purée, buttermilk purée, and buttermilk foam, Jo Minjoon could perform it the most perfectly He followed the nore the density according to their judgments
‘I can make purée better than anyone’
But of course, taking into account the whole world, there would be a lot people that did it better than him, but at least it was like that on this co able to beat Anderson and Kaya on giving flavor to sauces
It was also about ti level was 7 His comprehension towards French cuisine, American cuisine, etc had risen quite a lot He was confident on harredient had with the flavor of the sauce, and knehat dishes were delicious when cooked He could know understand at ti it had when he cooked
That’s why Jo Minjoon was certain He believed that Kaya could win No, that he would bring victory towards Kaya That he could prove hiazpacho Since gazpacho was a cold dish, it didn’t matter if they made it ahead of time It was much better to prepare that and check the condition of the dishes of the others
Originally, that hat a head chef was It didn’t happen that they grabbed the pan or knife themselves, except if it was a small restaurant It wasn’t because of the awareness of superiority Leading a kitchen was atheir own dish perfectly
Just looking at Alan’s case was like that His cooking level was 8 Of course, even if he and Kaya were the saardless of being level 8, he was running a Michelin star restaurant That was because, aside of cooking skills, his strength for leading the kitchen was certain
And on Jo Minjoon’s eyes, Kaya was quite a fine head chef because she had her sense of taste Jo Minjoon could know the cooking score at a glance with the strength of the system, but Kaya could cohtly tasting the sauce But it wasn’t that she only depended on her taste She could knoell it was cooked just by looking at the external colour, and on those cases, she even sent it back without hesitating
‘I shouldn’t need to worry’
Jo Minjoon’s plating was simple but luxurious He poured the purée on the plate as if he was drawing, and he placed the seared carrots with duck fat and sauteed langostinos Next to the langostinos, he placed a sage leaf as if it was a tree, he put breadcrumbs with particles as thick as a railroad He ended the plating after putting butterostino meat And like that, the five dishes were ostino with a chopstick and nodded
“Good It’s done well”
“It’s just the flavor you wanted, right?”
“Al is delicately different For it to be the sa on the hands of the cook, it is marvelous”
“If you run a restaurant later on, take a chef that cooks as well as me Then, at least you won’t receive any claims from the customers?”
“……So confident”
“There was no time I didn’t have confidence I was just worried that ance”
But he decided to not do that anyht, Jo Minjoon thought of a lot of things And noering himself became difficult He needed a distraction If Kaya was really depending on him, he would becoht
Jo Minjoon looked at his dish The carrot purée, that seeht line and next to that the butter its small and round shape like some macarons It wasn’t that he just nized by Kaya
“I won’t…fall back anymore The road I have to walk on is clear, and the place I’ I have to do is only one To walk to the front”
“Right I like that side of you better”
Kaya said while putting a proud expression Rather than the wondering Jo Minjoon, she liked the bold Jo Minjoon that came out this much better
The dishes started to be placed on the table one by one There were five seat around the table filled with dishes Marco just touched his fork as if he ondering what kind of expression he had to show
“It just feels like a buffet when it’s a course cooking No, should I say that it is a party?”
“What’s the matter with that? Just eat it in order”
“What was the order again?”
“Gazpacho, langostino, pasta, turkey, and then sorbet and tarte tatin”
Excluding the gazpacho and pasta, they were all 8 points The one who made the pasta was no other than Joanne However, it was unavoidable First, the score of the recipe of the pasta wasn’t even 8 And even if that was the case, Joanne didn’t have the skills to easily make 8-point dishes If Kaya directed her on every point, it would be different…… But there was no guarantee that she would do ithout any mistakes in front of 50 customers
But even if it was 7 points, it didn’t yeopsal was like that Even if it was grilled on good fire, it was i score to pass 7 points But no one would be able to say that it wasn’t delicious The pasta Joanne made, the tortellini was like that It wasn’t a particularly outstanding dish However, the ingredients on the du were all alive, and on the seared pumpkin, a fresh sweet flavor was on it
It was a clear and delicious, a good dish So much that if she went just like this, there wouldn’t be any problems
And the other dishes were also the saras, and when eaten along artichoke gazpacho, you could feel the fibres of it and felt that you were eating duck meat wrapped in radish And of course, the flavor wasto say about Marco’s tarte tatin, sorbet, and before-meal bread It was a bread that made you feel why Marco was Marco
Actually, when nor they felt the biggest difference with normal restaurants was the bread It would be weird to look at a secondary thing when you went to eat a dish, but it was unavoidable Most of the luxurious restaurants couldn’t help but to pay a lot of attention to the bread, and a just baked bread was a basic The result of the bread’s texture was that it turned out soft and that it ht now, Jo Minjoon was feeling that aroma from the luxurious restaurants he had been froood, you will be able to eat deliciously with basic garnishes, Marco’s bread had a charm that made you happy without any kind of sauces or butter
However, Kaya’s face that tasted all of these things, couldn’t be bright But Jo Minjoon couldn’t ask her the reason He felt that the ht on Kaya’s shoulder would turn real
That night, or perhaps dawn, Jo Minjoon opened his eyes He couldn’t discern hether he woke up or was just closing his eyes and opened it His body was tired, but his consciousness was clear Because originally, your head would be the clearest after you slept for 3, or perhaps 4 hours
As he grabbed his cellphone out of habit, he saw that the ti It was an excessively early time to open his eyes He wasn’t thirsty, but because of that he didn’t even want to go to the toilet
As he was about to close his eyes to go and sleep again, an alare fro?]
It has been roughly 30 e He wondered that she ers were soonon top of the screen
[ Me : I just woke up ]
The reply didn’t co heavier, his phone rang
[ Kaya : Ah, sorry I saw it just now You aren’t sleeping again, right? ]
