Chapter 154: Global & Local (4) (1/2)
But of course, it wasn’t that a change occurred because of this step His tasting level was still 8 and what people thought about this was still ‘the absolute taste is incredible’ And actually, the words that came up on the chat were all like that
It was then Jeremy looked down at his dish arm eyes
“It is delicious but…I think that this restaurant is going to be more popular to tourists rather than japanese people Aht?”
“Mm…I can’t exactly deny that They did say that they kind of compromised, so I couldn’t completely catch their tastes But of course, it’s not that we don’t have japanese customers……At least half of the half are japanese”
Not even a quarter of the customers in a japanese fusion restaurant are japanese Even if it is a global e proportion Jo Minjoon slowly thought back at the sushi+s he ate just now
‘…It was delicious indeed, but it felt like sushi+ that had a ht that it s of the japanese Rachel opened her inally a difficult task A foreign country…Precisely speaking, it’s fine as westerners like it, right? The ones a chef has to treat are the custos of the people that don’t even coh, I think I knohat you are talking about But even so, I still think of that Is this fusion food that was masked as japanese or japanese food masked as fusion Well, that may depend on each person”
At Jeremy’s words, Rachel turned to look at Anderson and Jo Minjoon She threw a question with the eyes of a teacher
“What do you think about this?”
“What do you want us to say exactly?”
“The proportion of local and global food, what’s thein that balance Can you tell me your opinions?”
[It’s a homework]
[I always found those kinds of questions the hardest to solve I feel like it may not do it if I answered it half heartedly]
Jo Minjoon and Anderson turned to look at each other for a moment And the one that spoke first was Anderson
“It’s the ingredients”
“Why do you think like that?”
“Because it’s the ingredients that show the characteristic of a country the best With that , I can’t understand Jeremy’s words that well If it’s the sushi+s we just ate, I think that it’s a dish with plenty of japanese feeling”
“Right Then, Minjoon?”
“For redient you may use, if you use a sauce of that country, then the color of that country shows up Actually most of the people that live in the western Europe think that if there’s raw fish and soy sauce, it’s always a japanese dish And if there’s cheese in it that it’s an European dish So in the end I think that the sauce is the ht If he wanted to globalize korean food, so if he wanted to localize it in another country……ould be the sauce that has the h it wasn’t yet, if you followed the future he careat popularity in west Europe Although ki, it was still deh not all of theood to use it as an ingredient to give a sweet flavor
‘It’s the spicier side’
There would be nothing wrong to have the prejudice that koreans liked korean food more But of course, ht ould happen if he could handle all of the spices and condirabbed Jo Minjoon’s shoulders and shook it Jo Minjoon got surprised and turned to look back at him
“Wh, what? What happened?”
“No, teacher Rachel was calling you since before Why are you this absent minded? What did you think of?”
“……Ah, as you started to talk about global and local food, hts”
It see hihts Rachel shts have so a fusion restaurant can’t help but have And all of their answers are different Whether it can beco they walked their own path”
“So what is your path teacher?”
“Looks”
“……Yes?”
At the unexpected answer, Jo Minjoon looked at Rachel with a confused face And that was the sa so
For a chef to say looks rather than so related to flavor It was exactly those eyes Rachel shrugged her shoulders as if she knew they would react like this
“One of the prejudices people have is that if chefs focus on the looks, they take it as if they are doing so completely different”
“It’s not a prejudice……but isn’t that true? In the end, cooking is flavor Because it doesn’t oes in your mouth”
Sera asked as if she couldn’t understand well Although she was an epicurean, she was also a girl And just like a lot of girls were like, they got amazed the prettier a dish was But they were certain that it had nothing to do with the flavor And actually for three stars, the looks were luxurious for nothing but when you put it in your mouth, there were many cases where you frowned
However Rachel shook her head Her two eyes were filled with clear confidence
