C2193 Dietetic Cultural Conflict (1/2)
”Crab fermented orange? What the hell was this? How could a crab be placed together with Cheng? More fermenting! Brewing wine, crab brewing wine... Get rid of this too! ”
A dish with half of the menu on it had been devalued to a useless state by the Duke of Newcastle. Liu Dadao could no longer hold back.
What was Liu Dadao's true job? He himself could not explain this, but it did not seem like it either. After all, this fellow's identity was that of a chef, and he had been's family slave for dozens of years.
He really liked cooking, and truly enjoyed cooking. It was this kind of extreme professionalism that deceived CIA, and it was also this Qing Dynasty who, in order to cover his identity, had sacrificed the lives of several hidden spies, allowing him to successfully break through CIA's examination.
Therefore, Liu Dadao's job was to be a chef, while being a spy had become a part-time job.
In order to protect his reputation as a chef and not let his culinary skills get humiliated, Liu Dadao completely erupted. He snatched the menu from the Duke's hands and shouted, ”Change! There's no way we can cook this. Are you the imperial chef or am I the imperial chef?
”Do you know how to eat? Do you have any taste! ”
Duke of Newcastle was stunned, he had never thought that a chef would actually dare to shout at him. After hearing the translation, the Duke was furious.
”What?” You actually dare to say that I don't know how to eat? How dare you mock our British aristocracy for having no taste? Presumptuous … Every high ranking noble in British Empire is a top-notch gourmet! ”
”We might not be able to cook, but if we're talking about tasting delicacies, you guys are definitely not a match for us!” because we have a supply chain of good food all over the planet... ”
Duke of Newcastle roared in anger. He wanted to teach this inexperienced Chinese chef a lesson, dare he say that my British Empire's nobles have no taste? You dare say we won't eat it?
The colonies of the British Empire spanned across the entire Earth. According to the survey from three years ago, the colonies of the British Empire had already reached 33 million square kilometers.
Such a vast colony naturally provided rich sources of food for the influential figures in London. It was the top wheat in North America and Odessa, the top date and palm oil in Arabian, and the beef and lamb meat produced in New Zealand and Australia.
The top quality cod fish from the deep seas of the North Atlantic, and even the rare and special dodo from the Indian Ocean were all common sight on the table in the British aristocracy.
Not to mention all the game produced in Africa, Kenya alone consumed more than half of the top coffee produced in the UK in a year.
The world's finest cashew nuts came from Mozambique, the finest abalone from South Africa, and the Duke had even tasted the very coarse meat of lions and zebras.
Have you ever eaten any of these things in China? How dare you say that I, an Englishman, do not have the taste for food?
The wealth of the British Empire is something that you backward people cannot imagine. Right now, even the entire Europe is providing us with delicious food.
The best beer came from Prussia, the best ham from Spain, the best wine from France, caviar from Russia, and the unique northern European pickled herring … The best ingredients are to be served to the London restaurants at the first possible moment.
He actually dared to say that the nobles of London could not eat it? This was truly intolerable!
