The week passed very quickly, and many ordinary viewers in New York and Western America spent these days with great anticipation.
Especially the closer you get to the start of the Shoji, the more exciting it becomes.
Different from the first public show, Zhao Youqian came alone. This time there were two IGO staff behind him pushing a large cart with mountains of charcoal piled on it, which made Vince feel uncomfortable. The weight of Charcoal, which was also pushed by others behind Xiao Hua, pales in comparison.
It's like the contrast between a giant and a baby.
It even made Xiao Hua's eyes narrow slightly.
Then he quickly turned his head.
'Just using high heat and lots of charcoal are not the necessary conditions for winning!'
Although I was thinking this, my vigilance towards Zhao Youqian had unknowingly risen several levels.
After all, being able to use so much charcoal shows that the cooking Zhao Youqian is going to make is very intense.
When competing for barbecue, in addition to ingredients and taste, isn’t it just about the heat?
The more ferocious and powerful the heat that can be controlled, the stronger the flavor of the barbecue, the unique fire flavor.
This is an irrefutable truth.
Because this time the shokuji competition was about barbecue, it was rare that there were as many as five judges.
This is why the two sides of Shokoku are famous this time, and it may be difficult for the three-person judging panel to convince the public.
So the troops dispatched this time are extraordinarily different.
Sylvan is the editor-in-chief of the largest food newspaper in Western America and the Wall Street Financial Food News.
The pearl of the French cuisine world, the chef of the IGO-certified five-star restaurant in Paris, Linchu Bervin Flanders.
Lin Chu Li Wenbo, the chef of Fuqinglou from Yaozhou.
These are all judges invited from all over the world, and the rest are two people from within IGO.
The head of the Western American IGO, Bilson, is also known as the worst IGO branch director.
And the supervisor from the European IGO headquarters, Ms. Farrier.
Five people who are considered to be the top in their respective fields serve as judges for the Shoji. You can also know that IGO attaches great importance to this Shoji.
In fact, ever since Zhao Youqian wanted to establish Shengchao Street in Ximei and started to work in Ximei, IGO has already noticed this young man who is causing trouble in Ximei.
Coupled with the things related to the cooking fortune reported by Red Wine, IGO's attention to Zhao Youqian has been raised to the highest level after he has won ten consecutive victories.
They even sent many people to lurk into Western America, fearing that the Food Society would secretly take action.
After all, whoever can cause trouble in Western America is a highly desired thing for IGOs. The bigger the better.
Although it may not interfere with the competition between IGO and Gourmet Club in unknown areas and South America, it is good to disgust people once in a while.
We can't always cause trouble on the IGO's territory because it's delicious food, and we won't allow them to fight back, right?
Although Zhao Youqian was born in the Yaozhou cuisine industry, outside he is an IGO-certified special chef. He is a member of the IGO both emotionally and rationally. At least he is much more pleasing to the eye than those crooked melons and jujubes from the Food Association.
That’s why this time, many people from the IGO headquarters were specially mobilized to support Zhao You.
Just by looking at this lineup of judges, you can tell that they are targeting the Food Fair and Western America.
Even if there is no difference in taste, the winner in the end will definitely be Zhao Youqian.
Xiao Hua did not expect that things would be like this at first, but he soon calmed down. Xiao Hua, who is absolutely confident in barbecue, was not worried that he would lose or be tied in terms of taste.
Even if he loses, with a lineup like IGO, he still has an excuse.
However, the appearance of IGO's judges will not affect him. IGO's reputation must be recognized even by gourmet fairs.
Making trouble secretly is making trouble secretly. On the surface, IGO is always neutral and impartial.
So even if Zhao Youqian took a quick glance and saw something, he didn't relax at all.
Because at just the first glance, he knew that this guy Vince Xiao Hua was completely different from the people he had met before.
Even Zhao Youqian has never had that kind of confidence that I am absolutely invincible in a certain field.
'Such an opponent... is what makes people excited!'
As a live broadcast, naturally eating halberds still requires a bit of ritual at the beginning, but it is also very simple.
As the host announced, both Zhao Youqian and Xiao Hua came to their kitchen with a lot of fuel!
This time, because the title of Shokugeki is ‘BBQ’, the venue for Shokugeki is a very open sports field with all the grass removed.
Only a place like this can accommodate the crazy fire show that the two are about to launch.
In fact, in the stadium, many safety personnel have already prepared fire-extinguishing tools. Once the two chefs cannot control the flames, it is time for them to appear.
It can be said that after Zhao Youqian and Xiao Hua settled in their own cooking areas, they first checked various equipment, and then started to light the fire.
The almost identical steps made the judges present and the audience behind the screen gasp in surprise.
I almost suspected that they were colluding and doing some kind of synchronized show together.
However, if you are a real cooking master, you will find that there are some differences in their previous steps, especially Xiao Hua's speed is actually faster than Zhao Youqian.
It's just that the ball of charcoal that Zhao Youqian ignited at the beginning was not as large as Xiao Hua's, so it seemed that their speeds were about the same.
"It's such a big battle, what do these two guys want to do?"
As the special chef closest to the Lin level, Mandalay temporarily closed the restaurant today and concentrated on watching Zhao Youqian and Xiao Hua's food.
His vision is also completely different from ordinary people.
He also has his own views on barbecue and heat. An average barbecue cook would never be able to master such a large battle prepared by Zhao Yougan and the others.
Even among special chefs, there are only a few who can control it, and even in Lin Kitchen, not everyone can use it freely.
Mandelai originally thought that Zhao Youqian would make barbecued food like roast goose or roasted suckling pig. After all, this is Yaozhou's traditional cuisine, and a lot of creativity can be added to it, which is completely in line with Zhao Youqian's past style of halberd cuisine.
But Zhao Youqian was completely different this time. He directly made a pile of fire, obviously intending to directly compete with Xiao Hua in terms of heat.
In Mandalay's opinion, Zhao Youqian is still a bit too young.
But at this moment, the flames on the screen suddenly burst out. Even through the TV, Mandalay seemed to feel the terrible heat wave coming towards his face!
"This...this is???"
...
At this time, in the Shoji Stadium, two balls of flames were like tornadoes of fire, soaring into the sky, illuminating the entire huge stadium.
And the two equally excited cooks, their eyes were full of fire under the flames!!
