A Mouthful of Sky-high Fried Rice, Lao Tang Apprenticed on the Spot Chapter 486

Chapter 486 debut

While talking, there was another sound of footsteps outside the kitchen door, followed by several men walking in.

The first person was a middle-aged man of medium height, with a round face, neither fat nor thin, and his hairline was a bit high.

After entering the door, he scanned around and saw Liao Wendong by the wall at the door, and came forward to say hello with a smile.

He looked very enthusiastic, and took the initiative to ask Li Yi's identity.

Knowing that Li Yi is also the chef participating in the campaign, he was a little surprised: "So young? Who did you learn to cook from?"

Seeing that he also asked once, Li Yi could only explain again: "I am self-taught."

"No mentoring?"

Fang Dongxiu was even more surprised: "Then you are here to participate in the election?"

"What? Isn't it possible?"

Li Yi asked with a smile.

Fang Dongxiu was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Of course, this election is for the society! As long as the level is good enough, anyone can run for the election."

As he spoke, he paused, and then added: "But you are still young, and it is time to learn things quickly. Finding a teacher to study hard is much better than thinking about it yourself."

Shen Han on the side couldn't help reminding: "He is very famous now, have you watched the recently aired "Chinese Restaurant"? He is the chef there."

"Chinese restaurant?"

Fang Dongxiu thought for a while, and then suddenly said: "That variety show, right? I know, but that show is entertainment, right?

The variety show that really tests cooking skills has to be "The King of Chefs", where there is real kung fu. "

"That's true."

Liao Wendong nodded and said with a smile: "Master Fang was able to win the national championship in "The King of Chefs" because of his real skills."

"The main reason is that my master teaches well."

Fang Dongxiu smiled modestly, and then asked Li Yi with a smile: "Are you interested in Hunan cuisine? After participating in the selection, if you have nothing to do, you can go to my place. My master often goes to my place and can give you some advice. "

Hearing what he said, Liao Wendong hurriedly winked at Li Yi, making Li Yi agree.

But Li Yi smiled and declined: "I'm too busy this month, I have a program to record, and a food festival to attend, and I might have to prepare a banquet for the food exhibition at the end of October, so I really don't have time.

When I am free later, I will definitely pay a visit and ask for advice. "

"Uh...hahaha!"

Fang Dongxiu hesitated for a moment, then laughed and praised: "Young people dare to break through and are full of courage. We are old!"

As he spoke, he signaled to Liao Wendong, "I'll go and see the stove!"

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Li Yi with a smile, nodded, and walked over to the stove with the helper.

Seeing him leave, Liao Wendong complained to Li Yi a little bitterly: "Are you really not understanding or are you pretending not to understand? They want to give you a hand, but it's better for you, just let them block you back.

Did you know that his master is Xu Juyun, a master of Hunan cuisine. Among all the famous chefs of Hunan cuisine, he likes to have apprentices the most.

In the world of chefs in Hunan Province, Mr. Xu is the one with the most connections, with more than 110 direct disciples, more than 40 of whom are super chefs.

If you can worship under the name of Mr. Xu, you dare not say it in other places, at least in Hunan Province, you can definitely gain a firm foothold.

well! Such a good opportunity was wasted by you! "

Looking at his regretful expression, Li Yile felt relieved, and comforted him: "It's okay, I don't have to be a teacher, so let's just pretend that the fate has not come!"

Liao Wendong looked at him helplessly, shook his head, and went to the stove without saying anything more.

Seeing this, Li Yi looked back at Shen Han and spread his hands.

Shen Han couldn't help reminding: "Master Xu's culinary skills are famous, and he often went abroad for exchanges with national culinary delegations.

If you can worship him as your teacher, it is indeed not a loss. "

"Forget it, I really don't have that skill."

Li Yi smiled and shook his head.

Don't talk about Master Xu, even their patriarch may not be able to teach Li Yi.

But the specific reason couldn't be explained in detail, so Li Yi was vague.

While talking, a few more men entered the door.

In the lead was a thin man with a short stature, even less than 1.6 meters.

He is thin and small, but his face is quite serious, and he looks serious and full of aura.

Even the cooks behind him seemed to be carved out of the same mold as him, with a straight face and followed behind him.

After entering the door, he glanced around and went directly to the stove without any nonsense.

Shortly after they entered, several other men followed.

Li Yi almost thought that they were also Dong Haiqiang's assistant cooks, because the young man in his thirties looked a little dull.

But after careful identification, Li Yi recognized him.

He is Huang Qigang, son of Cantonese cuisine master Huang Zhenhua in the data.

But Huang Qigang in reality is obviously younger than in the photo.

In the photo, he looks like he must be forty years old, but in reality he only looks thirty years old.

When Li Yi looked at Huang Qigang, Huang Qigang also recognized him.

His eyes widened in surprise, he came straight to Li Yi, and asked politely, "Excuse me, may I ask, are you Li Yi from "Chinese Restaurant"?"

"good for you."

Li Yi nodded with a smile and said hello.

"It's really you!"

Huang Qigang was even more pleasantly surprised: "I didn't expect to meet you here. My daughter is a fan of yours. She follows "Chinese Restaurant" every day. She also asked me to learn your cooking and cook it for her."

"Really? That's an honor."

Li Yi smiled and asked, "Did she come with you?"

"No."

Huang Qigang felt a little regretful: "She is at home and has to go to remedial classes."

As he spoke, he asked a little embarrassedly: "Can you please record a video for her? It happens to be her birthday next month, and I would like to ask you to record a birthday greeting for her."

"sure, no problem."

Li Yi readily agreed.

"Great! Thank you."

Huang Qigang thanked repeatedly: "I really didn't expect to meet you here, what a coincidence.

Is "Chinese Restaurant" going to be recorded here? "

"no."

Li Yi explained: "I am also here to participate in the internal selection of the food and beverage items of this meal meeting."

"ah?"

Huang Qigang was taken aback: "Then I am doomed?"

Li Yi was amused by him: "This is not even a match! Why did you admit defeat first?"

"How can I compare with you?"

Huang Qigang explained with a smile: "My daughter dragged me to follow your show every day. I have never successfully copied any of the dishes you made on the show."

"It's too early to say these things, at least you have to compare them before you know?"

Li Yi said politely, and then asked curiously: "Aren't you a Cantonese chef? Why did you come to Hunan Province to participate in the selection?"

"I don't cook pure Cantonese cuisine."

Huang Qigang explained: "What I cook is innovative cuisine, which is based on Cantonese cuisine, and then integrates the advantages of other cuisines to create new dishes.

For example, I have tried dipping chili to stir-fry fresh abalone slices, and I also used lobster to make Xiang-style stir-fry. The guests liked it very much.

I came this time to learn from the real masters of Hunan cuisine and learn some inspiration.

But meeting you, I guess there will be a lot of gains. "

"You're being polite, we should learn from each other."

Li Yi's words are not polite. He agrees with Huang Qigang's innovation.

It is impossible to keep up with the pace of the times if you are blindly complacent. No matter what kind of cuisine it is, you must continue to innovate in order to have long-term vitality.

They were chatting here, when suddenly there was a burst of noisy talking outside the door, as well as the sound of messy footsteps from far and near.

First, two men carrying cameras walked backwards into the back kitchen.

Followed by a woman holding a fill light, she also stepped back quickly, stepping back again and again while looking ahead.

Afterwards, a man in a white tuxedo, bathed in a fill light, stepped in.
