Chapter 208 - One, two, three (3) (2/2)
”Aren't you jealous?”
”Well, er than chef Rachel… She feels more like a roleTaste is subjective in the end, but all chefs end up getting strangely competitive all the time”
”Well, it's impossible for one to not want to be the best in their field”
Just then, a server brought in a basket of ciabatta bread as a snack As the server proceeded to pour dry red wine into their glasses, Sera took a sood Their bakerspecial”
”I heard it's Jack's daughter who's in charge of that Ah, Jack's the old baker fro”
”Like father, like son, huh?”
By the tione, the amuse-bouche had arrived It was the fried scallop that had been served to the chefs of the restaurant previously A powder sauce reen mustard, and a fried scallop made with shrimp and pork Joseph put a piece in hisshrimp and pork with scallop was a technique that was co It was often employed to raise the texture of the scallops Thanks to this, every time Joseph chewed, the scallop's soft, firm texture seemed to almost bite back at hisout of the meat almost tasted like the tastiest piece of chicken Joseph's ever tasted
This scallop, coreencoht flavor that astrono flavor
'It tastes incredibly deep This savouriness is just… I wonder if I can even begin to describe this'
Powder sauces were harder to ine After all, one had to taste the sauce in its liquid forht expect, the powdered form of the sauce tasted entirely different from the liquid version Of course, this was probably made under Rachel's careful instructions for now, but… Sera looked up to ask a question
”Was this made by Anderson or Minjoon?”
”Well, Minjoon did touch this The fried scallops were made by chef Janet Paye of the appetizer teaastronoo into astronoastrono on how astronomy It is quite normal to make sauces like this, but…”
Joseph took a look at the butter, tapenade, and the pate that cae of those three things as well, it was clear as day what Rachel was announcing to the rest of the world That she'd finish Minjoon as fast as she can in this kitchen
'What are you planning on doing… After you complete him?'
Of course, there was no answer to this question

”Chef! Chef! Do you knoho just came in?”
”Probably someone fao”
”That aside, Cersei Martelle and Mary Stacey are here too! I'e fan of both of them!”
”We need to focus We can't have those people eating dishes with your spit on it Take that dish away You got your spit on it”
”…Sorry”
Maya put a piece of the jelly in her mouth with a sad face Then, she proceeded to e face What she just ate was a jelly made out of fish stock, meant to be eaten with the ceviche She shook her head before speaking
”This is weird It's good with the ceviche, but…”
”It taste like pure fish stock by itself? I know I did that on purpose”
”Weird, isn't it? They taste so good together, but by themselves, they're just…”
”I'm more amazed at your inability to shut up”
Maya s to her station She proceeded to shoot glances at Minjoon fro
'Again with that'
Occasionally, Minjoon would make a face like that Alah to make Maya shi+ver
Recently, Minjoon had been putting astrono, it was hard to find the fun in things while cooking Due to this, Minjoon was only really able to have fun when he was plating a dish
Of course, it wasn't like he could invest that etting flooded with orders, after all Thankfully, Minjoon had previously gotten advice on how to plate fro was revolutionary, to say the least She was able to make a dish look full with the least aest dish
Minjoon could feel hi as he followed Rachel's footsteps He wasn't just is either Minjoon was able to take Rachel's perfect techniques and was slowlyto replicate Rachel's technique every tiht think either Every dish felt different Each time he poured his sauce on the plate, it felt different, and every time he plated ice cream would feel different as well
Minjoon recalled what he heard about Mona Lisa long ago That the painting wouldn't have been famous without heras tiny as the eyebrows had the power to change everything about a painting And right now, Minjoon was drawing countless Mona Lisas on the dishes he plated Each one of these paintings were the same, but united in their own unique way
This allowed Minjoon to grow He could feel it In fact, the notification that he hadn't seen for the longest ti hih replicating the techniques of a giant!][The level of your plating technique has gone up!]
