Chapter 171: Overlapping Shadows (2)
Posted on October 27, 2017 by eneral, the tasks for an apprentice who has just recently entered the kitchen is siredients, clean the kitchen, and do whatever tasks the chefs or prep cooks tell them to do Since the majority of an apprentice’s tasks were chores, there were ht that it was a waste of time But that wasn’t the case
First, it helps theredients The ingredients’ condition, how to prep it, how to store it On top of that, since they needed to use their knives to prep the ingredients, their dexterity had to get better as well
Plus, watching the other chefs and following the orders they bark at them also helps the apprentice understand the flow of a kitchen and the tis done
Of course, that was the case for a kitchen that was in operation Rose Island was still prepping for its reopening, so the kitchen was not busy However, they weren’t just sitting back and relaxing Although they weren’t being chased by tis to do Rachel was busy trying to rekindle relationshi+ps with suppliers she had not talked to for ten years, and the de familiar with the recipes Rachel shared with them
Because of that, Justin, the apprentice, the person who should be the busiest in the kitchen, ended up beco the most free person It had to be that way Since there wasn’t redient related tasks, and his hands weren’t busy either All Justin could do was clean everything in the kitchen which he had already cleaned to the point they were shi+ning, and observe the environ Justin could confirh that
‘……Minjoon Did soentle, but because he was polite and straight-forward like a scholar, he could come off as stiff so robot, since he could correctly guess anything that went into his ood happened, but he seemed extremely happy and would even start to smile for no reason
Justin must not have been the only one with that question At lunch that day, Rachel started to speak
“Minjoon, you see that you are a new chef?”
“Do I seeht even think you won the lottery or so”
At Lisa’s response, Jo Minjoon just quietly stroked the right part of his neck He could feel the weird feeling of the burn mark that was hidden underneath the collar of his chef uniform Normally, people would feel sad about such an injury, but that wasn’t the case for Jo Minjoon For hi hiue as he spoke
“Apparently he is seeing Kaya today”
“Kaya…… THAT KAYA?!”
Lisa was not the one to respond to Anderson Justin, who had been quietly listening to the conversation raised his voice with an excited expression Jo Minjoon nodded his head with a bright expression
“I’ her today She said she’ll be in LA quite often for the next few months”
“……I don’t like that panda lady”
At Minjoon’s answer, Ella grumbled in a sulky voice Jo Minjoon had to think for a second Panda lady? He wondered if she was saying that because of the s at Ella with a stern expression, Jo Minjoon consoled Ella with a gentle voice
“Kaya will like you She really likes cute children like you”
“What is cute about rown up” (TL: Everything you just said h she was talking like she didn’t like it, she soon started to laugh Javier then asked Minjoon a question
“Minjoon, can I ask you a somewhat personal question?”
“No”
“……Don’t people usually ask what the question is first?”
“It’s pretty obvious what you are going to ask”
Jo Minjoon answered with an expression that seeht have felt guilty, as he raised both of his hands and started to speak
“Then I will ask you a different question That’ll be okay right?”
“Fine Whatever Ask away”
“Are you two dating?”
“……Javier”
Jo Minjoon looked at Javier with a cooled off expression Javier answered with a cal to ask so like who you think the sous chef will be”
“Why is that a personal question?”
“Since I was asking for your personal opinion, it was a personal question”
It was an excuse, but it was pretty convincing Jo Minjoon placed his thu cal It was true that there was quite a lovely atmosphere between the two of them, but they never had the opportunity to be in that type of relationshi+p Javier did not doubt him and nodded his head
“You still have a lot of events that need to happen I’m sure it’ll be enjoyable”
“Let’s just talk about the sous chef Who do you think it will be?”
It was very clear Minjoon was trying to change the topic of discussion At this point, it was okay to give hihtly as he answered
“Rather than ill come, the question is, how etting a second chef, the sous chef will need to take the second chef’s role as well……if you think about that ……will it be around two people?”
“I’m not sure …… Janet”
Javier called out to Janet Janet stopped eating the fruit pudding Lisa had made for her and turned her head Javier asked in a mischievous tone
“What about a bet? On how many sous chefs will come”
“I don’t haveother than e of the section with this bet”
“……I’, but I don’t like losing it because of chance Please make a bet with someone else”
It was quite a cold statement, but Jo Minjoon was impressed That short sentence showed her personality as a chef Only skill The type to want to deter by their skills alone Maybe it was the ideal personality for a chef However, at the same time, it was a personality that never let you relax Jo Minjoon whispered to Anderson and asked
“It ht?”
“What”
“Janet To live with tension like that every day I think it’ll be really difficult”
“I can hear everything you are saying”
Janet was still looking at her plate while speaking in a quiet voice Jo Minjoon was completely surprised and looked towards her He made sure to talk quietly He answered back in an aard voice
“……Your ears are very bright”
“The weaker you are, the more you tend to perk up your ears Like a rabbit”
“Janet, why are you weak?”
“I don’t know To say it ”
