"Chef Shinomiya, SHINO'S Tokyo's prepoen has been a great success. Do you have any ideas for a third branch?"
"Haha, it's a little too early to say this now. I want to build SHINO'S Tokyo into a famous store as famous as the Paris main store. First of all, start with this small goal..."
Looking out the window at Shinomiya Kojiro talking about repayment with so many flashing lights and reporters, Soma Kohei couldn't help but sigh:
"Senior Shinomiya is really amazing. He is so calm and composed in the face of so many people. He is indeed a senior who dares to go to Paris alone to open a store..."
Facing Xinghei Souma's longing, Abel on the side snorted coldly and said disdainfully:
"What do these small scenes mean? When we were at the main store in Paris, celebrities from all over the city flocked to the store, and the chef was still relaxed..."
Seeing Abel's disgusted look on his face for not knowing anything, Yukihira Soma didn't care, but said with great interest:
"Is it true? Mr. Abel, can you tell me..."
"Humph, at that time..."
Abel was about to open his mouth to brag, but was stunned for a moment before he could speak. Then he slapped Soma Yukihira on the back of the head with his backhand and said angrily:
"Why are you asking so much? You are so busy, and there is still a lot of work waiting for you in the kitchen? Hurry up and help, A Xing is the only one left. Are you embarrassed? The stupid bird flies first, don't you understand this? Hurry up and finish serving this batch of guests.
It’s closed!”
After being slapped by Abel and grinning, Yukihira Souma couldn't help being slightly stunned, and asked a little strangely:
"Closing? Is the closing time so early on the last day of preparation?"
It's no wonder that Yukihira Souma feels this doubt. This time is usually the peak dining period in the restaurant, and it will be quite some time before it closes.
But as soon as Yukihira Soma finished asking, he saw Abel walking towards the kitchen, minding his own business, and said as he walked:
"It's not closing in the true sense. Next, we have to entertain a group of guests who have reserved the room. It is said that they are friends of Chef Shinomiya..."
"Friends of Shinomiya-senpai?"
Yukihira Souma scratched his hair in confusion. Before he could figure out the reason, he was startled by Abel's roar and ran into the kitchen dejectedly.
However, Soma Kohei's doubts were quickly answered. When the so-called "guests" came to the restaurant, Soma Kohei couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise:
"Teacher Roland Chapel and all the seniors, they are so good and are gone!"
The visitors were none other than Roland Chapel, the director and lecturer of the French Cuisine Department of Totsuki Academy, as well as Totsuki graduates from the 79th and 80th classes of Totsuki, Hinatako Inui, Shouhei Seki, Fuyumi Mizuhara and Donato Gouda.
Several people. They are all acquaintances of Souma Yukihira, and the accommodation training is Totsuki's special lecturer!
Among them, Chapelle is not only a French cuisine lecturer at Kohei Soma, but also a French cuisine leader for Shinomiya Kojiro and others when they were students. This time, he was specially invited to come to Shinomiya Kojiro's Tokyo branch.
But none of these people were the protagonists of this invitation. The last appearance of Kojiro Shinomiya's mother not only shocked Soma Kohei, but also surprised Hinatako Miki and others.
In the kitchen, Yukihira Soma, who was preparing ingredients, looked at Liu Subaru, who was flipping through French cooking books, and suddenly said:
"Axing, why don't you go out? There are a lot of interesting people here this time, and they are all very good chefs. By the way, Senior Shinomiya's mother is also here..."
Liu Pleiades put down the book and glanced at the excited Yukihira Soma in an annoyed manner. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart, I'm afraid this last point is what really makes you feel interesting!
Shaking his head slightly, Liu Pleiades continued to look at the book in his hand and said softly:
"So, what does this have to do with me!"
Yukihira Soma choked on his words. It took him a while to react and said:
"This is Senior Shinomiya's mother. Aren't you curious? You don't know that Senior Shinomiya seems to be a completely different person in front of his mother."
"There is absolutely no sense of coldness or isolation like in the past..."
Of course, this last sentence was from Soma Kohei's heart. It was the first time he saw such a warm Shinomiya Kojiro. This was why Soma Kohei felt strange.
Liu Pleiades listened to Xingping Soma's encouragement and could only put down the book and said with some helplessness:
"So, does this have anything to do with me?"
"But the Fourth Palace..."
Looking at Liu Pleiades' hands spread out, Xing Ping Soma wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Liu Pleiades ruthlessly interrupted:
"Xingping, I think you have time to pay attention to these, why not prepare for the "new dish competition" that will be held later. It is not easy to get the recognition of Shinomiya. At least for you now, it is good
Think about it and carefully review what you have learned and heard in the past few days. This "competition" may be your only chance to get access to the "must-have dishes", so take advantage of it!"
After Liu Pleiades finished speaking, he ignored Yukihira Soma and quietly immersed himself in the ocean of books. To be honest, this internship had a lot of triggers for him, and the fine processing of ingredients in French cuisine also brought him a lot of inspiration.
His different inspiration gave him new ideas...
On the other side, Souma Yukihira fell silent after listening to Liu Subaru's words, recalling that he vowed yesterday to join this "new dish competition" and to impress Kojiro Shinomiya.
But now what he was doing, Xing Ping Soma suddenly felt ashamed! But it was not too late now, Xing Ping Soma began to close his eyes and think about summarizing every bit of the prepoen period. Combining the study of French cuisine with his own experience,
You are sure to find the “must-have dish” that suits you best!
Just like that, the originally noisy kitchen suddenly became silent, with only the sound of flipping pages and slightly rapid breathing remaining.
At this time, Abel and Shinomiya Kojiro who walked into the kitchen noticed the strange atmosphere. Seeing this, Abel couldn't help but frowned. Just when he was about to call out Yukihira Souma, before he could say anything, Shinomiya was interrupted.
Kojiro waved his hand to stop it.
"Chef, they...??"
Faced with Abel's doubts, Shinomiya Kojiro just shook his head with a smile and said softly:
"Don't disturb them. I believe these two guys will definitely bring us different surprises in the next competition..."
Shinomiya Kojiro looked back and forth between the two of them, and finally stopped at Liu Subaru. He pondered for a long time, not knowing what he was thinking.
…
"Snapped!"
A loud noise pulled Yukihira Souma out of his fantasy. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Gao Wei, Liu Shi and others ready to go. Next to them, Liu Pleiades was already standing in front of the cooking table, ready.
"Okay, Yukihira, don't be confused, let's get started!!"
